‘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.

  1. 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.

  2. 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. 🤣🤣🤣

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

  8. 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" 😊

  9. 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.

  10. 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 !!!
