I'll think harder if you read better.

I was talking fruit, not field crop.

FWIW, grove owners in my area are losing $ on citrus (& have been for years)

& is your documentation for a $10 ^ in lettuce pickers' wages based in fact/analysis or from the Vaseline jar ?

Based on simple arithmetics. If there are 200 lettuce heads picked per hour per team member the calculation is simple.
