During the lambing and shearing seasons (April through July), my father would hire casual labourers - generally Romany -to help out. They were allowed to park their caravans on the farm, but Da also had some small cottages built for any of them who wanted a change. He never charged ground rent, fed them while they were there, and paid above the going rate. He ALWAYS had to turn people away.

I'm sorry I don't agree. I think in concept it's exploitive regardless of whether it's voluntary or how well the exploited are treated.

I’m also sorry that you don’t agree - we must have different concepts of the meaning of ‘exploitive’. If I offer you employment at higher wages than anyone else is willing to pay AND give you free board and lodging into the bargain, in what way are you being exploited?
