The article is easy to read and doesn’t have grammatical errors. The article includes one image and it would be helpful if it had more. It is not appealing there’s not a lot of interest that would catch the readers eye, it doesn’t even seem like there is a picture there. I was unable to find the talk page for this article. Overall, the article is in good structure with enough information needed to become aware of the topic. The articles strengths are that it gives a first person perspective from farm workers. The article could be improved by having more pictures.
