Machia voted for Trump, drawn by promises of border control and national security. “We didn’t want drugs or gangbangers,” he said. But what he didn’t expect was losing some of his most dedicated employees to immigration arrests.

“It’s scaring the farming community,” Machia admitted. “We didn’t think they’d come for the people who help us milk cows.”

LOL. Idiots

One move could be to move to higher value or lower labour agriculture. Stuff like tomatoes, wheat and root veg can be harvested by machine. Higher value relative to the manual labour put in could be meat production.
