I know someone that worked as a migrant farm laborer in the 1960's. There is not set rate. Depended on what you picked. The typical range for a ten hour day was $10 dollars ($77 in 2012 money) to $150 ($>$1000 in 2012 money). The money was earned by piece work, i.e. X amount of dollars per bin picked. The lowest amount was for picking cotton and the higher amount for picking Pears and Apples. According to him, in order to earn $150, you worked like a mad man and took no breaks. Still, $150 in the 1960's was HUGE money.
