The implication is they’re farm labor camps, so less living with nature and more picking cotton in the sun all day.
Yes but slaves who pick cotton learn valuable, marketable skills!
(big fuckin /s just in case)

Less picking cotton all day and more fruits and grapes. Or other crops that are still tended by hand, generally by undocumented immigrants.
This is to replace Migrant workers when they kick the Mexicans out.
