These subsidies, coupled with lower-cost labor, have resulted in dramatic change in our agricultural economy. Since 2000, the amount of land in Mexico 🇲🇽 used for protected fruits & vegetables has soared from approximately 300 acres to over 130,000 acres! — PolitiTweet.org

This growth, caused directly by subsidies from the Mexican government, comes at the expense of growers in #PlantCity and across #FL. In the last 20 years, Florida growers have lost between $1.1 and $2.2 billion in sales, leading to nearly 40,000 lost jobs in Florida. 📉 — PolitiTweet.org
