Harvest schedules are pretty consitent. Migrants learn by word of mouth who is good to work for and who is not.

It hasn't changed for years...although like others have said, the people willing/able to do it have.

OK, here is what I don't understand. If the work was previously being done by folks who are legal to work here, and then they quit doing it, how did illegal aliens hear about it? Whose word of mouth? I am not getting how they even knew that suddenly no American would do those jobs and they were free for the picking. Who told them??
