MAGA are fools when it comes to immigrant labor in our agriculture.

Calling people MAGA makes you the fool, because MAGA is a verb not a noun dummy. What's wrong with you liberal leftist Democrat's ? Wait don't try to answer that, I don't have a psychiatrist couch for you to use.

How important is immigrant labor in the agricultural production of the US?

Immigrant labor is absolutely vital to the agricultural production of the United States. Here are some key points:

1. Labor Force: A significant portion of the agricultural workforce in the U.S. consists of immigrants, both documented and undocumented. These workers are essential for planting, tending, and harvesting crops2.
2. Labor Shortages: The agricultural sector has been facing chronic labor shortages, which have been exacerbated by restrictive immigration policies and the COVID-19 pandemic. Immigrant workers help fill these gaps2.
3. Economic Impact: Immigrant labor helps keep production costs down and ensures a steady supply of fresh produce. Without these workers, the agricultural industry would struggle to meet the demands of the market.
4. Visa Programs: Programs like the H-2A visa allow U.S. employers to hire foreign agricultural workers on a temporary basis. However, these programs have limitations and are often cumbersome for farmers to navigate2.

In summary, immigrant labor is indispensable for the U.S. agricultural sector, playing a crucial role in maintaining food production and supporting the economy.

MAGAdurds who undervalue immigrant agricultural labor are fools.

"Broccoli and lettuce require the most harvesting hours per acre. These data show that the major fresh fruits and vegetables could be harvested with about 400,000 hand workers if these workers were employed 50 hours a week during the harvest period."

Don't forget every other kind of labor they have entered into as cheap labor servant's, otherwise where they have supplied the crutch for the corporate (plantation owner of old in concept of), to lean upon his fence post over seeing the help while baring American youth from getting those start up job's that they were working on in days gone by without a problem what-so-ever. It was the balance that held the walking beams in place until they graduated to the next levels in life.

No one is stupid, and most know exactly what has gone on in it all. Meanwhile America's youth live in basements doing drug's and dying by the thousands in a created convenience that is actually a slow walked replacement plan taking place.

How important is immigrant labor in our agriculture in terms of worker numbers and monetary impact in the US?

Immigrant labor is absolutely vital to U.S. agriculture, both in terms of workforce numbers and economic impact:

• Worker Numbers: Immigrants make up a significant portion of the agricultural workforce. For example, nearly half of all crop production workers in the U.S. are immigrants, with many being undocumented2. Programs like the H-2A visa allow U.S. employers to hire foreign agricultural workers temporarily, but even with such programs, labor shortages persist.
• Monetary Impact: Immigrant labor contributes significantly to the agricultural economy. For instance, in the dairy industry alone, immigrant workers are responsible for producing over 60% of the milk in the U.S., highlighting their critical role. Without immigrant labor, the agricultural sector would face severe disruptions, leading to higher production costs and potential food shortages1.

Immigrants are not just workers; they are the backbone of the agricultural industry, ensuring food security and economic stability.

If less than half of the agricultural workforce are immigrants, that means that more than half are Americans, looking to further their own ends by hard work. If half of farm work can be done by citizens, then all of it can. All that is needed is to take away the easy availability of cheaper labor and wages for that critical work will be forced upward, high enough for a one hundred percent American workforce or at the least an overwhelming majority of Americans with a small percent of legal guest workers, their pay monitored carefully for parity with American workers.

Unless . . . for some reason, you just want to flood the country with illegals?

The cows produce the milk.

Without immigrant labor, wages will go up to attract non-immigrant labor. With Dems and RINOs having sent so much of our manufacturing jobs overseas, there is no shortage of unskilled workers willing to do manual labor for a fair wage.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

But it has not been because citizens don't want to do it.

You sound goofy: "hey, you, go pull weeds."

Idiot.

Demand will exceed supply, we will all pay extra, and that is because of people like you.

Do you even read what you post?

• Worker Numbers: Immigrants make up a significant portion of the agricultural workforce. For example, nearly half of all crop production workers in the U.S. are immigrants, with many being undocumented2. Programs like the H-2A visa allow U.S. employers to hire foreign agricultural workers temporarily, but even with such programs, labor shortages persist.

That means more than half are NOT immigrants. Do you understand that simple math?

So citizens do want to do it, and they do it. Migrants are willing to do it cheaper, but that =/= citizens don't want to do it.

You sound goofy: "hey, you, go pull weeds."

Idiot.

Demand will exceed supply, we will all pay extra, and that is because of people like you.

No, it won't. The produce will still be grown and picked. Worst case scenario is a slight increase in food prices due to farmers not being allowed to exploit migrants.

I'll pay it happily, knowing Americans can feed their families with their farm wages, and that migrants are not being exploited by greedy corporate farmers. Most Democrats won't notice because it's all the same to their WIC cards.

As to their food stamps, simply require them to buy a supply of staples, beans, rice, flour, cooking oil, salt, oatmeal, etc, before they by the steaks, the Ho-Hoes and the Hot Cheetoes. They will be fat and happy.

It's a win-win.

Unless . . . for some reason you are hiding, you just want more illegal immigrants?

Seymour Flops, you would starve to death if you had to rely on yourself to survive.

Are you ready for groceries to go up 50% over the next two years?

Before I'm ready for more floods of criminal aliens, human traffickers, drug smugglers, and other assorted assholes that Democrats defend letting in by crying about farm labor.

But I explained twice already why that won't happen, so keep your fingers in your ears and remain ignorant.

Flops knows nothing about farm labour, immigrants, or agriculture.

American farmers should be switching to robotics.

Yeah, that's affordable.

There's really no worries because the mass deportation plan is not going to happen. Trump and Homan can inflate the numbers, like they do on everything else, as much as makes them feel better, but so far deportations are down, even from the Biden Presidency.

Awwww if we didn't have our history to tell us how thing's were done in regards to our working youth in the past, otherwise whom later told stories about the different job's they performed, and how those job's taught them to be humble, hardworking enduring human beings that respected the meaning of work no matter what the task was in which they were given to do, then we might just be fooled by you.

All you people want is a servant modern day slave class that has little to no rights, and if they screw up then no problem because they are just replaced by another quickly from the pool.

Meanwhile American youth are left hopeless, spoiled, curious, misled, drugged, devious, suicidal, joining gang's, becoming killer's, molesters, abusers, pedo's, and every other unimaginable thing that happens to the idled mind when it has to much time on it's hand.

Think about it, and take a look at the whole picture.

 

[beagle9]

Yeah, that's affordable.

Trump will make it affordable.. Stay tuned.

Sure, why not. He's making everything else more expensive, but all terrain robots will be a dime a dozen, I'm sure.
