Quote:California Crops Rot as Trump's Immigration Crackdown Creates Farmworker Shortage
Quote:The ongoing battle about U.S. immigration policies is blamed for the shortage. The vast majority of California’s farm workers are foreign born, with many coming from Mexico. However, the PEW Research Center reports more Mexicans are leaving the U.S. than coming here.
To make the jobs more attractive, farmers are offering salaries above minimum wage, along with paid time off and 401(k) plans, but even that’s not proving enough.Vegetable prices may be going up soon, as a shortage of migrant workers is resulting in lost crops in California.
Of course, anyone who eats should care.
