  Reading many Articles I found a rather interesting story on Immigration News the article Immigration Laws Have Negative Effect On U.S. Farming Industry, talks about the effects of Immigration laws, The people or better know as Farmers are very angry with the law and boaderlines that have been set up. Farmers are taking these law to heart and to their money in thier pockets due to their large dependency on undocumented immigrants with skilled knowledge to their business. One farmer states "The enforcement of immigration policy has devastated the skilled labor source that we’ve depended on for 20 or 30 years," and another Ralph Broetje say's  “It’s getting worse each year, and it’s going to end up putting some growers out of business if Congress doesn’t step up and do immigration reform.”
The vast dependency that farmers have on the immigrants is out-numbered, Statistics say that 70% of agricultural industries are worked with undocumented immigrants. The Findings states' that having immigration laws do not pay off, but instead create a devastating economic toll on specialized local economies like farms.
