I have been asked to make a presentation to a group of vegetable growers on
labor management and retention. I have talked to several growers in my region
but I would like to hear how other people manage their workforce on their
farms. Many growers in our area would like to know how growers in your
region recruit interns or workers. What types of incentive programs work best ?
How do you deal with turnover ? How do workers accept working on an organic
farm ? Any feedback on this issue will be appreciated.

Please forward the inforamtion to: tford@psupen.psu.edu

Thanks
