[221]-230) and index.Immigration to the United States -- Agriculture and migrants -- California fruits and vegetables -- Florida sugar, oranges, and tomatoes -- Meat and poultry -- Seasonal worker mobility -- Migrants : the integration challenge -- Labor shortages, mechanization, and food costs -- Reforming U.S. immigration policies -- Regularize and rationalize farm labor.American agriculture employs some 2.5 million workers during a typical year, most for fewer than six months. Three fourths of these farm workers are immigrants, half are unauthorized, and most will leave seasonal farm work within a decade. What do these statistics mean for farmers, for laborers, for rural America?This book addresses the question by reviewing what is happening on farms and in the towns and cities where immigrant farm workers settle with their families. Philip Martin finds that the business-labor model that has evolved in rural America is neither desirable nor sustainable. He proposes regularizing U.S. farm workers and rationalizing the farm labor market, an approach that will help American farmers stay globally competitive while also improving conditions for farm workers.ImmigrantsUnited StatesEconomic conditionsForeign workersUnited StatesForeign workersGovernment policyUnited StatesEmigration and immigrationElectronic books.ImmigrantsEconomic conditions.Foreign workersForeign workersGovernment policy.331.5/440973Martin Philip L.1949-506148MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910457109403321Importing poverty2474422UNINA03685oam 2200709Ia 450 991077790030332120190503073336.01-282-09771-70-262-27386-197866120977131-4294-1303-4(CKB)1000000000467383(EBL)3338575(OCoLC)743198212(SSID)ssj0000519157(PQKBManifestationID)12185630(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000519157(PQKBWorkID)10495399(PQKB)10589297(MiAaPQ)EBC3338575(OCoLC)76064489(OCoLC)228169929(OCoLC)228169930(OCoLC)473072266(OCoLC)568000635(OCoLC)648225153(OCoLC)743198212(OCoLC)815776446(OCoLC)888552360(OCoLC)961513903(OCoLC)961519338(OCoLC)962682641(OCoLC)962716608(OCoLC)964663042(OCoLC)974187859(OCoLC)974445458(OCoLC)981978914(OCoLC)982020451(OCoLC)988438487(OCoLC)991998876(OCoLC)1006302716(OCoLC)1013182938(OCoLC)1043891872(OCoLC)1055400308(OCoLC)1066391751(OCoLC)1081221065(OCoLC-P)76064489(MaCbMITP)4771(Au-PeEL)EBL3338575(CaPaEBR)ebr10173633(CaONFJC)MIL209771(PPN)170271765(EXLCZ)99100000000046738320061115d2004 uy 0engurcn|||||||||txtccrMoral sentiments and material interests the foundations of cooperation in economic life /edited by Herbert Gintis [and others]Cambridge, Mass.
