Is the piece-rate a fair compensation system? Is it humane? We know it drives #ChildLabor in US agriculture. Thank you Diego for your work! And thank you @UFWupdates for your excellent posts.
These beautiful strawberries were picked by Diego in Santa Maria. Diego works by piece rate, rushing to pick the best berries for consumers. During peak harvest Diego says the pay is good, but when the fields are bad he doesn’t earn enough to make ends meet. #WeFeedYou

Bautista shared his work in Thermal CA. The high reached 108° on the day he sent is this pic. His job was to wrap the dates in bags that will help them mature faster and also protect them from any animals or bugs that might eat them. #WeFeedYou #Calor

We've been asked, "Why do farm workers wear sweaters & face coverings even when it’s hot?" To protect themselves from pesticides, dirt, dust, sun, irritating fibers, fertilizer, thorns, bugs and even snakes. #WeFeedYou
