Comment on Could AI robots with lasers make herbicides – and farm workers – obsolete?parent

An interesting thing is that many farm workers are migrants. They are needed for a period and then, largely, return to their country of origin.

As the US tightens down on abusive practices, there would be less migrants. Therefore we need tech like this since citizens won’t do the work and if they did they would make the product too expensive.

I can see how in a world without seasonal laborers, there would be fewer legal migrants who do work in the country then go home, definitely. Something tells me that wouldn't solve the migration crisis.
