Excerpt from Citrus in Mexico Processors, who utilize 20 to 25 percent of Mexico's citrus output, are heavily dependent on exports. The United States is the main outlet for exports of proc essed citrus products, but Western Europe and Canada are also important markets. There is much interest in expanding processing facilities for orange juice, especially among grower groups seeking al ternate market outlets. However, both fruit supply and markets could present problems if expansion were to proceed rapidly. The United States exports small amounts of citrus products to Mexico for consumption in urban centers near the us. Border.

The emergence, maturity, and decline of the southern California citrus industry is seen here through the network of citrus worker villages that dotted part of the state's landscape from 1910 to 1960. Labor and Community shows how Mexican immigrants shaped a partially independent existence within a fiercely hierarchical framework of economic and political relationships. González relies on a variety of published sources and interviews with longtime residents to detail the education of village children; the Americanization of village adults; unionization and strikes; and the decline of the citrus picker village and rise of the urban barrio. His insightful study of the rural dimensions of Mexican-American life prior to World War II adds balance to a long-standing urban bias in Chicano historiography.
