Florida tomato farmer warns mass deportations threaten farms
Florida grower Tony DiMare says Trump deportation plans would harm U S farming by reducing a legal workforce. He notes 850000 crop workers in the U S with half undocumented, and cites strains from Florida SB1718 forcing higher wages and the need for guest workers. He warns nationwide crackdowns could raise costs, trigger inflation, and affect staples like tomatoes and burgers.
