Farmers do not have the luxury of delaying harvest. When the crop is ripe. it must be harvested and moved to the market immediately. For example. the raisin harvest in just one county. Fresno. requires in excess of 75.000 workers in a brief period of a few weeks. The local labor force is totally inadequate to meet the farmers needs. Labor must be imported and in most cases. the workers are illegal aliens from Mexico. The H2 temporary worker program will not work in the West. S. 2222 is fatally flawed by its reliance on this cumbersome. slow and complicated program.
