Mexican Border: Herman and Workers Need

mexican border: Herman, who grows figs, persimmons and almonds in the nation's most productive farming state, said Trump's comments pushed him to make the purchase, larger than he would have otherwise, according to Guelph Mercury. No doubt about it, Herman said. Days after Donald Trump won the White House vowing to deport millions of people in the country illegally and fortify the Mexican border, California farmer Kevin Herman ordered nearly 600,000 in new equipment, cutting the number of workers he'll need starting with the next harvest. I probably wouldn't have spent as much or bought as much machinery as I did. They're calling on congressional representatives to educate the incoming president on the workforce it takes to feed the country, and they're assuring workers they'll protect them. Others in California's farming industry say Trump's tough campaign talk targeting immigrants in the country illegally including a vast number of farmworkers spurred them into action, too.
