Mexican Americans are one of the largest ethnic groups in the US and they make up a significant portion of the US agricultural workforce. According to the US Department of Agriculture, there are over 3 million people of Mexican descent involved in some aspect of agriculture, ranging from production to processing and distribution. Additionally, the majority of the nation's farmworkers—those who tend the nation's fields—are of Mexican descent. Mexican Americans are involved in nearly every facet of the agricultural industry, from seeding and tending fields to crop production and food processing and even managing farms and ranches. Additionally, many work in related industries such as pest control and fertilizer and chemical sales.
