| Summary: | This article analyzes participant observation from the experience of the author as migrant farmworker in the study of labor migration regulated by H2A visas to the United States by Purhepecha farmworkers from the state of Michoacán, Mexico. Participant observation permitted the documentation of the recruitment, hiring, issuing of H2A visas, and working conditions Purhepechas experience in fields in the United States and the way they construct social relationships in labor mediation through the creation of trust and mutual loyalty between workers and intermediaries, as well as the mediation mechanisms, power relations, subordination and resistance that occur.
