J. Ed Taylor interviewed by CBS Sacramento regarding the shortage of California farm workers
Professor J. Ed Taylor was recently interviewed by CBS Sacramento for his expertise regarding farm workers. The news segment explored the struggles and frustration of California farmers, as the farm labor shortage continues in the state.
"Young people growing up in rural Mexico are getting more education that gives them a ticket to higher paying jobs that demand more skills and provide them with more stable employment than they would get in agriculture. This is a case in which what is good news for Mexico, is bad news for CA farm work," said Taylor.
