I know, you tell me.Go fetch fido.
That’s really odd, they thrived for nearly two centuries before the massive invasion of illegal aliens that started in the early 1980s. All illegals did was to lower labor costs which are the smallest component of a farmer’s costs. Today most crops are picked by machinery, not stoop labor.The AG producers and markets wouldn't thrive w/o immigrant labor. Until there is a worker program it's not going to change.
and some crops cannot be machine picked. Before Latino migrants there were Haitians .That’s really odd, they thrived for nearly two centuries before the massive invasion of illegal aliens that started in the early 1980s.

some that come to mindHow many farm crops are "picked" by hand and what are those?
We have those here as well.Until you have been in a field with the "workers" you know not of what you speak. Every farm , and every crop is different. But some things are constant. I've seen "camps" by the "creek" in San Diego Co that made my stomach turn from the filth that these "immigrants" were living in. Less then an 1/8 of a mile away was a shopping mall and houses worth $700,000. These "immigrants" lived in filth while waiting for the crop. Likely, after the crop was harvested they moved on to the next "camp", only to return the next year, to that same filthy "creek". Thousands of these workers live in unimaginable circumstances.
And Eastern Europeans before that, ad on and on. The difference is that the prior laborers were here legally. There used to be harvesting crews that roamed the US following the various harvest seasons,and some crops cannot be machine picked. Before Latino migrants there were Haitians .
Almonds are machine harvested by “shaker” machines. Tomato’s are machine harvested. Spinach as also machine harvested. Of what you listed only lettuce is hand harvested.some that come to mind
tomatoes, lettuce spinach , almonds.
If we wanna eat...somebody has to pick emNo ody HAS to pick the crops.
Aren't progressives supposed to be against shit like this?
Twitter melted down after Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi claimed that Floridian farmers "need" illegal immigrants to stay in their state and "pick the crops."
Critics claimed that Pelosi’s remarks were demeaning of migrants and that she openly admitted America should welcome in and profit off of illegal immigrants.
During a Friday press conference, Pelosi railed against governors relocating illegal immigrants from southern states to northern ones because they need to stay and "pick the crops down here."

This was so funny when I heard it. This is EXACTLY what happens in California and why they are ok with illegals and why it is a sanctuary state. Someone has to pick the crops and they don't even need to be paid a living wage. Let's exploit their labor and then blame border security on Republican employers.Aren't progressives supposed to be against shit like this?
