It has been assumed that the high cost of phytosanitary requirements in northern countries and of the certification required by commercial chains negatively affects the earnings of laborers. Using case studies of two citrus industries in Argentina, a middle income country, we argue that field laborers can profit from good agricultural practices and from the more orderly managerial practices demanded by certifiers. Producers also re-evaluated the transaction costs of cheap labor practices after becoming aware of the importance of responsible performance. We also note that producers granted wage increases only after the unions threatened to strike and that higher wages did not pull laborers out of poverty since in counterseasonal horticultural export industries the period of employment is usually short. |
