“Too spoiled to do” I hate that phrasing and blame on workers. It used to be that summer farm work could be done by university students or other summer workers. It was always part of the year, part-time work so no one who needed an annual income could afford to do it. However no one in the farming industry wanted to find a way to make full year round jobs out of it or team up with other types of employment so their necessary workers could work the other 6, 7, 8 months of the year somewhere else and survive. They simultaneously want the work to be classed as piecemeal/poverty wage and then also demand workers skilled in the type of farming work that they need. Farmers, as a whole, have only themselves to blame for what is now happening. They supported every step in a several decades long process that has gotten them to today. Sad it has taken them until now to realize that they have created their own demise.
