Show Notes
Farmworkers and UC Merced students protested at AgTech events in Merced, opposing state-backed machinery that could replace field jobs. Protesters, many longtime workers, argued the tech harms the land and ignores fights for fair wages. The state invested in local AgTech projects, but critics fear job losses for veteran workers. The protests come amid renewed farmworker movement sparked by news of Cesar Chavezs abuses.
