What I find curious is, with unemployment so high, why Big Ag is so eager to continue employing teenagers.

Big Ag has also targeted proposed rules labeling meat's country of origin. Because you know, ignorance is freedom.

maybe because a lot of crops are seasonal, kids are out of school during many crops' harvesting times. ever try to hire an adult for seasonal work? they tend to say no, as they want a permanent job, not a summer job.
