No 338618, USDA Miscellaneous from United States Department of Agriculture

Abstract: Excerpt from the report: Farmers are moving to take over many operations and services which, during the war emergency years, were performed by governmental agencies. One highly important service was the operation of camps to house seasonal farm workers. As Federal agencies now relinquish responsibility, growers are operating or planning to operate much of this housing. Various cooperative associations of growers have been successful in operating camps for domestic migratory agricultural workers. This report is pointed to the operations of such camps by the cooperatives. Its conclusions reflect many of their experiences.
