Abstract

The symposium aimed to convene and develop a network of researchers and stakeholders to engage in a productive discussion focused on farm labor issues. A primary goal of the symposium was to strengthen and enhance ongoing farm labor research, focusing on four key themes: 1. Trends in the farm labor force—including presentations on worker migration and the H-2A Temporary Agricultural Program ---- 2. Labor costs—including presentations on the effects of H-2A AEWR and overtime laws on farmworkers ---- 3. Farm worker conditions—including presentations on a) workplace safety; b) effects of climate change on worker health; c) workplace harassment ---- 4. Workforce development—trends in training current farmworkers and a new generation to develop, operate, and repair new technologies in the field and lead packing operations.
