These so-called farmers from Punjab in India hold the country to ransom for freebies, pay no taxes, get loan waivers from tax payers money but want to migrate illegally to Europe even to be enslaved. They treat their farm labourers from Bihar the same way back in Punjab as they are treated in Portugal. They get something called the minimum support price for farm products, crop insurance from the government. They are mostly affiliated with political parties and it is their union that fixes the prices of products. Agricultural income in India is not taxed. They will have domestic helpers back home who they treat in the same manner as they are treated in Portugal or even worse. No sympathies!

The term is now "wage slavery". Somehow, if you give someone barely any money for housing and food, virtually no rights, abuse, and work them way too hard, it's different from just giving them barely any food and housing.

It’s ironic. Over fifty years ago, Portuguese citizens like my parents escaped Portugal to find economic prosperity in North America. They too worked in harsh conditions, leaving their children behind in order to improve their financial situation. In time, as their prospects improved, families were reunited and the next generation benefitted from all the sacrifices. Poverty creates the same trend in every generation.

I personally have meet people from nepal and India working in this industry and they go months without payments and living in metal boxes. As per the amount paid, 4€/hour is more then the minimal wage, but I know that half of it is cut because of accommodations and food, since most of the bosses provided those, although under curious conditions. I have nothing against people going for another country to seek work and a better life. But it reach a point where is to much and our government doesn't see that. Instead of making laws and regulations so Portuguese work force can stay in our country, they put harsher conditions and taxes on us. So the only way is to seek work force somewhere else. Theres more to this then meets the eye. Lawyer firms also make a huge profit doing business with the agencies. I personally have friends who work as a lawyers that helps get all the paper work done. The thing is there dozens of thousands of people here that don't speak the language, have no connection to the culture or want to be integrated some how, and I honestly don't know what the future holds.

I could not get the passport by descendance because it was already 2 generations. Fortunately, I could get the passport by descendance in another european member state. It takes a lot effort and hard work to become a citizen and have some stability.

thing is, your hope of becoming a european citizen and thus having "some stability" is falling apart in front of you right now. Europe is in a steep decline economically, as its (already few) remaining industries are being dismantled due to excessive energy prices and "sustainability" regulations. Beyond that, the native population is dwindling, the following generations have no idea how wealth was once built, and finally millions and millions of people are coming in who have even less of an idea about productive work but only want to get their share of that fantastic wealth that they think is stored up for them in europe. Problem is: that wealth is already mostly fantastic only, and what is there will melt away quicker than the snow on a summer day. Everyone in europe should get ready for a very very hard ride. Quickly.

Switch processes for what? Your sister probably came to Portugal and worked illegally.

You could make a similar documentary focusing on many different parts of the world where the situation of guest workers is much, much worse. For example, the entire Arabian Gulf region is kept functioning by tens of millions of foreign workers that live in conditions that would make Portugal look like a Club Med resort. In those places, unlike Portugal, those workers have zero chance at attaining a local passport , have zero rights or protection under the local courts, and are entirely beholden to their employers, a lot of whom take advantage of this to either mistreat, sexually abuse, or not pay their employees. Of course, the root cause of these workers being in this situation in the first place is the lack of opportunity and possibility of any sort of advancement in their home countries. Wouldn't it be great if it wasn't only developed countries that cared about human rights, equity, progress or equality for its citizens?

So, because of that, all of the hard, back-breaking manual labor is done primarily by migrants from South Asia, which is the closest region with available pools of working-age people. From my POV, about the only country in the region that treats migrants in anything approximating a decent manner is Oman and that's primarily because of its multi-cultural past, where they held possessions all over the coast of east Africa and also in what is now Pakistan.

What I'm about to say may be controversial, but it's the truth and it shocked me deeply... Overcrowded houses, poor conditions, the stress created due to working conditions, and the creation of small groups among the migrants themselves have an impact on the rest of the community. Every year, me and several of my friends go to some sort of Youth Event in one of the towns mentioned in the video (not going into details regarding the type of event or specific municipality, but I want to make it clear that I am not talking about summer festivals, the event had an educational aspect). About 5 years ago, in the first time that I attended that event we could see some immigrants - but only a few - in the town and there were never any problems, neither with them or with the locals; we could go out at night without preocupations or a slight sensation of fear. The second year I attended that Youth Event, we could see more immigrants and some of their stores, but, again, no problems with them or with the population (some were even very friendly). All of that changed on the next year. We headed to Alentejo to share experiences, hang out with each other, learn, have some peace, breathe the "countryside air", etc. However, on the first day we set foot there, we were told by some of the locals to watch out when we went out. They (the locals and even the organizers) advised the girls to not go out alone, to go in a group and preferably with boys, because of incidents that happened before. We were also told to avoid any trouble whatsoever.The organizers even reinforced the "security" measures (on a surveillance level). I was shocked with that. The years before looked like a fairytale compared to what we were told. Some more "radical" locals said that they were already being treated like the "foreigners" by the immigrants that now were a majority. I didn't want to believe any of that, but when I went out with my friends, I saw things that made me understand the warnings. I am not saying the Government should deport them, but they should, at least, try to mitigate these contiditions and provide some seminars/classes regarding the new culture that the immigrant workers are going to live in. I know that the poor conditions they live in and the stress they have to go through can change their temperament and that can lead to a more impulsive behaviour, but these are things that need to be addressed. I would like to go again one day to that same event and go out with my friends without fear and hang out with the locals and the workers that are there, like we used to do, but from what I saw the last year that I went there, I have few hopes...

What is happening to these workers is exactly the same thing that happened to Portuguese who fanned across Europe during the 1960's for a better life. What do you think were the working and living conditions for Portuguese in France, Luxembourg, Belgium and Germany? People sacrifice, work hard in the hope for a better life in the future. Which most achieve. Migrant workers are in Portugal because of what the Portuguese passport will make possible, their move to greener pastures in the rest of Europe. I admit modern traffikers of people have gotten more sophisticated, and more costly than in the past, but it is always the same, workers are always willing to pay, to assure themselves of a better life. What is happening in Portugal is not unique. There are millions of people across the globe who would give their right arm to be admited to Portugal to work in berry farms under those conditions.

Well Indians don’t realize they’re as much a part of the problem of “exploitation” as the ruthless Portuguese agriculture industry. Currently there are 1.4 BILLION people in India alone. That’s more than 1 BILLION more than the United States. And with a population growth rate of 1.04%, you don’t have to be a mathematical genius to figure out that the population is growing by 14 MILLION per year. Even IF India suffered the loss of 2 million to COVID in one particular year, that would still mean a growth of about 12 MILLION in that year alone. Um, yeah. And so it also doesn’t take a genius to figure out that Indians are gobbling what’s left of the resources of their own country and export themselves as fast as they can to the rest of the world to gobble up the resources of those countries too. It’s a simple problem of supply and demand. Too many Indians means a glut of cheap labor to be “exploited” by a sad-sack country like Portugal whose main way of luring workers is by providing them a way to infiltrate Europe. The Indians in this video all admit they’re trying to gain a foothold in Europe. I’m sure there are A) A lot of Europeans who don’t realize their country is soon gonna be overrun by Indians or B) The Europeans who CAN see this storm coming aren’t happy about what Portugal is doing. Therefore, the “exploitation” is a two-way street. If Europeans want to stave off the impending wave of Indian migrants about to subsumie their countries, then maybe they’re gonna have to pay higher prices for their raspberries. But obviously, if Europeans want those cheap raspberries, then they are opening the door for Indians to take over their economies. Not rocket science. And if Indians want freedom from so-called “exploitation,” then a LOT of them need to break the chain, and start putting on condoms instead of flooding the planet with cheap labor. Of course, none of have the intelligence or self-discipline to follow this simple practice. They will continue to multiply and play the victim.

I’m from one of the former soviet states and fortunately I didn’t have to work a manual labor but I was working on an extremely demanding low paying job in the Czech Republic for many years before I was eligible for JUST a permanent residency, now after 11 years of living here I’m finally eligible to only APPLY for a citizenship/passport and even then there’s a risk they will reject my application. When I explain it to some people from the West or other privileged passport countries they simply don’t get it. They don’t understand how people of the “third world” are constantly abused just because they were born in a different country and decided to seek more passport freedom.

100€ per person in rent, in the Portuguese market, is relatively accurate. In some places in Portugal, a bed will cost you 250€, a room 400€ and a flat 900-1200€ depending on the size... It's not excusing the practice, it's just being a realist.

Migrants being abused beyond the local and common laws is something that is seen althroughout Europe (including Germany, in the catering industry, and less automated background industries), and needs to be regulated at EU level, because if a country does it, then so "must" others to keep prices competitive. Also, we allow goods to come from outside slave work industries (China, India, Paquistan - trade taxes should be tied to human rights always) without reasonable additional tax, making a mockery of our values and economic chaos to locals producers, just so countries like Germany can keep the CCP happy and willing to make business. Particularly, plenty of portuguese companies failed to use modernization funds from the EU (corruption and fraud, from the public and private sectors), hence some portuguese farming companies now fail to compete with automated systems, "having" to rely on such schemes. This isn't the case in all portuguese agriculture, as I've heard plenty of reports of the downsides of this business models (it has been documented since the 18th century that slave work is often less enomically effective) and was heavily criticized by the portuguese reporters who broke the story and is in judicial process at the moment. Sad.

It’s an appealing prospect for some people especially those from low income nations hoping for a better pay and life, but this kind of jobs are poorly paid and lots of working hours with little to no benefits

Literally the same applies to my father who is married to a Portuguese citizen. Also we have friends who bought land and one is not a citizen. To become one he had to invest and has to visit every year for 7 years as well as speak proficiently.

Well.. the problem is not the job.. They are being paid about the minimum wage. The problem is the mafia trafficking them which keeps part of their earnings (which are already small) and don't tell them about their rights. Their earning become even less because most try to send some money back to their families. And they afraid to speak up because these mafias could hurt their families back home. So, most of all, this is a peoples trafficking issue.. If they come by themselves, it's a low wage job, but it's honest work.. (as long as the employer follows the law and the government agencies audits to make sure they do, all systems in place already) Also remember in portugal they get free healthcare (without dental) from the state, and if they pay taxes they might even be entitled to unemployment between jobs. Unlike in other countries which leaves them even more vulnerable.

Watch a report on forest berry pickers in Sweden. They fly in from east Asia for the berry season and hope that they can earn enough to pay for the airfare, room and board, and have some left over to bring back to their families. So if the season is bad, they are screwed. The berry company pays them "under the table". No path to residency or anything, they are on tourist visas not workers. Or how about a report on North Korean workers in Poland? Ironically, some of them work in shipyards fixing NATO military vessels. Obviously, the situation with Portuguese workers is crappy with crooked work agencies, " smugglers", etc. But there are even worse things going on in EU. At least Portugal "recognizes" the reality of the need/existence of such labor, and provides an immigration path.

Well, if it makes everyone feel better, everyone in Portugal is severely underpaid and the companies and bosses that occupy this country are usually miserable, the government isnt helping either.

I am Portuguese, and unfortunately 4€/h is the average for most native people too, the whole country is underpaid and overworked, it's not an issue for just the immigrants. Immigrants generally agree to work for less money out of necessity, so companies prefer to hire them instead of natives. This prevents the overall increase in salaries because companies have an easy alternative for cheap labor, so they are not forced to improve working conditions and wages in order to hire native people. It's a very serous problem that is making plenty of native portuguese people unemployed.

Kudos Mr. Rosenberg! Excellent interview and such composure.

As a farmer in India, you are not sure of your income as it is riddled with too many uncertain factors. Governments do pay support prices for certain crops but they barely cover the expenses. To compensate, they diversify their activity into animal husbandry, small dairy farms etc. but a charmed life is way off. So they try to send their children to EU or USA. But I am proud to say Indians, in general work hard and try to provide the best education for their children. Like sugar in milk they will try to blend into local cultures wherever they are.

Maybe set up an office in Punjab India with one Portuguese boss plus hire a few locals to help with paperwork and help those people that want to work in Portugal. Also, get rid of all those middlemen and mafia and subcontractors. Just run it directly, they could even charge €1,000 to cover costs.

These guys are unemployed for 6-8months, and ready to do "anything ". They're emotionally broken, depressed but once they get docuemnted. They exploit next generation of illegal immigrants.
