Agriculture employs only a tiny percentage of those here illegally. In fact, many agricultural workers come in legally on H2-A visas.

- Baeocystin 10y agoAg work in general is only a few percent, sure, but look at the %/industry. Here in California, for example, ~45% of ag workers are estimated to be here illegally. Similar percentages are in construction, and other manual labor jobs. Also keep in mind that the job descriptions of this migrant population are fluid- who is counted as agricultural vs. construction, etc. changes by season and state.
