  • Title: Migration, remittances and development: a study of Caribbean cane cutters in Florida.
    Author: Wood CH.
    Journal: Int Migr Rev; 1985; 19(2):251-77. PubMed ID: 12280257.
    Abstract:
    The results of a 1981 survey of 302 Caribbean sugarcane cutters who were temporary immigrants in Florida are presented. The focus is on remittances to the islands of origin. The results provide "no evidence that seasonal stateside employment expands agricultural output, or enhances the productive capacity of small farmers in the Caribbean."
