Congress”² delays on reform could hurt harvests
Tagged: borderPosted on: August 22nd, 2007“If this year is like others, the sounds of droning cicadas and buzzing bees in local apple orchards will soon be supplanted by the cadence of Spanish speech and Jamaican accents as migrant workers arrive to pick the upstate New York apple crop.
The harvest requires about 8,000 temporary workers each year, according to James Allen, president of the New York Apple Association. And those workers typically come from south of the U.S. border.
But apple farmers are worrying that the only sound theyll hear in their orchards this fall will be the “thunk” of overripe apples dropping to the ground.”
