“Over 500 farms worth $475 million are at risk of failure because of increased immigration enforcement, according to a report released Thursday by a credit firm serving farms in the northeastern U.S.

First Pioneer Farm Credit found 25,636 New Jersey jobs could be lost due to a depleted labor force if increasingly punitive enforcement against illegal immigrants continues. The study found 508 farms could be forced to cut back or simply collapse altogether due to a loss of labor.”*
