Fruit Farmer,Placer County,California,CA,Farm Security Administration,1940,FSA,1

Title: Fruit farmer clearing out irrigation ditch. Placer County, California. Irrigated farming is a new thing to this man who migrated from Oklahoma and has now bought a farm through the Federal Land Bank. Fruit farmers in this section are fast losing their farms due to long indebtedness to Federal Land Bank and many farms are being bought by Okies and Japanese who, because of lower living standards and willingness to grow gardens, cows and pigs instead of specializing exclusively in fruit, have a chance to make a go of the farms.
