This survey is conducted by the State of Michigan's Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity Department, Employment and Training, Foreign Labor Certification Office. Its purpose is to help the U.S. Department of Labor establish wage rates and employment standards based on what's found to be common among agricultural employers who hire U.S. farm workers to complete certain crop activities. These standards are then required of employers hiring foreign workers through the H-2A program.

Your participation in this survey is voluntary. All information collected in this survey is confidential.

Please provide information based on wages and practices for the 2024 season.
