Health drive targets farm labor health in Kern County
At a Kern County Chamber of Commerce roundtable, the council of social agencies outlined farm labor health challenges and efforts to expand surplus food distribution, improve diets with butter and cheese, and push for a county health permit system for labor camps. The group cited 42,000 farm workers in 1949, a 55,000 acre potato harvest, and 9,000 temporary workers with many nonmigratory, while relief demand ebbed.
