Texas Farmworker Enumeration Project and Supplemental Comments on the Revised Migrant Estimate for Texas
Author: Larson, Alice C., Ph.D.
Date Published: 1989
The aim of the Texas Farmworker Enumeration Project was to develop estimates of the number and distribution of agricultural workers and their dependents in each of the 254 counties in Texas. Estimates presented in this report are based on analyses of several sets of administrative records, other studies and their methodologies, and published secondary data sources. Primary survey research, though advantageous and urgently needed on the policy issue of farm employment, was not possible due to the resource constraints under which the project operated.
