Nearly one third of the seasonal workers in the UK are students from countries like Romania, Bulgaria and Ukraine.

BBC reported that these students used specialised programmes that enabled them work in the UK’s agriculture sector over the summer.

Two thirds of the seasonal workers in the UK agriculture sector came from EU member countries, the report said.

The article focuses on the lack of labourhand and the problems that agriculture producers had with it.

Increasing number of East European workers were already looking for better paid jobs, BBC said. As a result, local agriculture production suffered losses.

According to local employment agencies, the situation was going to aggravate in the coming year, since government suggested limitations on unqualified migrant labour.
