Its Impact on Hispanic Farm Labor: Topics for Research and Analysis This paper examines the large scale trends in America's agriculture leading to larger and fewer farms and changes in the farm population and hired worker patterns. The author draws out several important implications for Latino farm laborers, especially seasonal and migrant farm workers. The overall implication of these changes is that they will lead to a greater regulation of farm labor which, in turn, could lead to fewer employment possibilities for domestic Latino farm workers and greater utilization of imported farm labor. Also laid out are several issues for research related to these trends and their implications. Dr. Rochín examines the large scale trends in America's
agriculture leading to larger and fewer farms as well as changes
in the farming population and hired worker patterns. Rochín
then draws out several important implications for Latino farm
laborers, with an emphasis on seasonal and migrant farm workers.
The author argues that these changes will lead to a greater structuration
and regulation of farm labor which, in turn, could lead to fewer
employment possibilities for domestic Latino farm workers and
a greater utilization of imported farm labor. Several research
issues related to these trends and their implications are also
explored. Hardcopy Price: $3.00
