‘Our farms will come to a stop’: US farmers fret over Trump’s deportation plans • FRANCE 24
Donald Trump has vowed to undertake the largest domestic deportation operation in American history when his second presidential term starts, potentially affecting millions of undocumented migrants. This could be bad news for America’s agricultural industry, which depends heavily on migrant labour. Farmers are warning it could lead to skyrocketing prices and cripple the country’s food supply.

maga fruitpickers.
This guy is really a hypocrite
Well then the Farmers better sponsor and approve to pay well. Then you could also start programs to allow farmers per season with a 3-year max and the workers come only for seasonal work. There’s always a way and the justification to keep migrants is lost. Get the illegals out they threaten the purity of our laws and society.
You voted for him!
No one I know is against LEGAL migrants working here, it's the illegal ones that get taken advantage of, is that what we want? We're also poorer when we let in millions that aren't working and require taxpayer food and housing. Took just 19 people to commit the biggest attack on the homeland, did we learn nothing? Bottom line is the Trump administration is going after dangerous illegal people that shouldn't be here in the 1st place. Maybe Trump should send them to France. 🤣🤣🤣
If you are from anywhere else on earth and not American you may believe that voting for a guy who directly threatens your business is stupid. I live in the US and this is the idiocy we've been dealing with for decades.
Farmers need to understand that 80% of the people don't care about them and 20% are happy to see farmers lose everything.
Yea scared to pay some real wages 😂😂😂
Delusional 🥺
People complain about him then turn around & vote for the hack. Everything lord donnie says is a scam.
Let our farms go bankrupt. The farmers voted for this clown. We can import all of our fresh produce anyway, we don't need American products. Turn the farms into Trump golf courses.
In the 1940's did your Grandfather go to the orphinage and make a donation to the nuns and in exchange pick up boy to work on his farm for no wages?. These boys were citizens of the USA. The REAL reason you began to bring in workers from out of country is how could you increase wages from ZERO for USA citizens? You did not want to increase wages from ZERO. So you pretened that USA Citizens refused to work as pickers. YES they refused to work for wage ZERO.
Deport the workers and send the farm owner to prison for 10 years minimum.
Hilarious. America is the nation of the dumb.😊
😅 all you have to do is get the non-violent prisoners out of prison and let them work to farms
Farmers for trump, that's what farmers and maga wanted, deal with it.
That's what you get for voting for that animal 🦍 and criminal 👹👿🤥!! You never saw this mess during the Reagan and Bush years. Never! That animal promised his voters jobs. So there you have them, just what you wanted MAGA people.
MAGA people are ready to take agriculture jobs.
Well, didn't you all vote for Trump ?
On one hand you want to say “well you’re gonna get what you all asked for” and on the other, 333,000,000+ people are about to get completely decimated because they decided to be stupid for a few hours. I swear this entire country would be a haven if farmers would just stop voting for the blood reds every time.
Just allow seasonal work permits.
MAGA Ready to take this jobs on January 20 .. sun up to sun down..
You know we'll all be eating from the same troff right, why bicker?
On a good note, maybe you people will be too weak to fight over politics!
"Sound of Silence" 😊
Hire Americans pay better simple
He won’t do that he is lying what he trying to do intimidate public especially immigrants communities
how about hiring legal immigrant to do the job without exploiting them with low salary or hire americans
You can’t have both ways. You voted for Trump and live the consequences
The way farm workers are treated in the U.S. proves that this country never got over its addiction to slavery. Farm workers face multiple forms of abuse every day they are on the job. Maybe this is just karma when a racist president makes them all go back where they came from. Another issue the Trump crowd never thought through.
Fyi i believe the massive deportation will only target criminals and venezuelans who are mostly here to do crime , the hard working migrants who have the guts to work in the fields are from mexico or watemala , also most of them have legal visas temporary season visas that have been implemented for along time , why is this news report focusing on the farm fields???? Focus on the city's where the venezuelans are doing crime , they should also target scammers from India who are getting a free pass to stay only to do crime !!!
The republicans plan on forcing welfare recipients to work on the farms.
Lol they fear it but yet voted for him😂
We dont need farmers we get everything from the stores 😂😂😂😂
This is basically Brexit again… smh.
These people don't believe it, they will not only see it, they will feel it…
The only money I make depends on how much I can extort from peoples' wages.
