European agriculture is already more automated than in the US, especially for those areas (like fruit/vegetable harvesting) where we use a lot of immigrant labor.

...

I guess that means Muslims don’t want to do the work.

Modern harvesting techniques require rock hared fruits and veggies that I hate.

Higher minimum wages and more generous welfare will result in more automation. The gains in productivity go to pay welfare to the people that don’t want to work.
