Trump: US agriculture industry needs immigrants

“When we have proper security, people aren’t going to come, except for the people we want to come, because we want to take people in to help our farmers, etc.” “You need these people. It will make it easier. … I’m glad I told you that because, look, you’re in the business and a lot of people don’t understand this. You need people to help you with the farms and I’m not going to rule this out. … You’ve had some people for 20-25 years that are incredible, and then they go home. And they can’t get back in. That’s not going to happen, but we can’t keep the wrong ones out.”Trump, who was introduced to the crowd by U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue, stressed to AFBF members that he knows what he’s talking about when it comes to agricultural issues.“I know a lot about the farming world."
