The Trump administration promises to spell out its vision for America's agriculture, but in the meantime, the president indicated on Tuesday that land should be owned by some Americans and farmed by migrant workers.
Why it matters: The debate over who can farm America's land has been historically linked to racism, xenophobia and, oftentimes, exploitation of farmers of color.
Driving the news: In response to the worker shortage on farmlands, President Trump said on CNBC that his administration will release new policies on migrant farm labor while suggesting that migrants are "naturally" designed for farm work. • "People that live in the inner city are not doing that work. They've tried, we've tried, everybody tried. They don't do it. These people do it naturally. Naturally," Trump said.
