In the United States jobs occupied by farmworkers are typically done for a painfully low wage. Many of these workers experience generational poverty within the agricultural industry. Not only are the wages low—these farmworkers have increased susceptibility to trafficking.
Oftentimes farmworkers are faced with the knowledge that they may experience physical abuse, sexual violence, or trafficking while completing the backbreaking labor necessary to feed the country.
