Custom Harvesting
Over the years, the H-2A program has expanded to include various farm-related businesses and entities
One of those sectors is Custom Harvesting.
Farmers across the country rely on harvest crews to travel to their farms and perform harvesting work on their land. As a result, these custom harvesting businesses are eligible to apply for Temporary Labor Certificates and bring in skilled H-2A employees.
Custom harvesters typically travel to the same farms, year after year beginning in the southern U.S. and heading north, to harvest crops for other farmers. Custom harvesting services are essential to the ag industry.
Without these services, many farmers would be forced to purchase expensive machines and perform these harvesting tasks on their own and risk a poor harvest.
Not only would this impose an incredible financial burden on our farmers, but it could force many of them out of business altogether. Farmers are already struggling to source labor, so added responsibilities such as harvesting and combine maintenance would be just another task on their already long list of seasonal chores.
Like many ag-based businesses, custom harvesting has a tough time finding qualified, skilled agricultural employees to run their machines and serve their clients – i.e. farmers.
Anyone who’s ever run a business or started their own service knows it’s hard to serve your clientele and grow your business without a skilled labor market to pull from. Growth is nearly impossible without the right employees with the proper skills to make it all happen. That’s where the H-2A program and USA FARM LABOR come into play.
