I was talking to a wine grower and in talking about wages he said “I can’t even get the Mexicans to pick grapes for less than $9.00 an hour”. And he went on to explain how grape picking is preferred work a it is mostly at chest level - compared to the crops you have to stoop down to pick, or the orchards where you’re up and down ladders all day.
