This is a pretty interesting want Ad.
I am 45 years old and grew up in Des Moines, Iowa. In High school and even my freshmen year in college we always had summer jobs detaseling corn. It payed minimum wage, and lots of kids did it.
No illegals were ever envolved at that time, just American kids.

My Aunt who lives in a rural part of England picked fruit in a nearby orchard. From what I heard it was just young woman and house wives doing the fruit picking.

A lot of American kids and adults would do the agricultural work, they were just driven out.
I guess the corporate owned farms don't have any kids to do the work.
