These essays agree with the fact that in addition of being the most exploited people in the United States, Farm workers face minimum wages and deplorable work conditions.
They have to break their back for minimum wages, so that people could eat delicious fruits and fresh vegetables in home. or should I say in their home?

Hi Pilita, Without altering your work too much, may I suggest:(note the comma) These essays agree with the fact that, in addition *TO being the most exploited people in the United States, farm workers face minimum wages and deplorable *workING conditions. They break their *backS for minimum wages, so that people *MAY eat delicious fruits and fresh vegetables. I don't think you need to say "in their home", because that may be understood, and it is not just in the home but in restaurants etc.

Or, with a little more alteration,
These essays recognize that, in addition to being the most exploited people in the United States, farm workers endure deplorable conditions for minimum wages. They break their backs so that people can eat fresh fruits and vegetables.
There are at least 100 ways to say this, of course, so you may want to experiment a little before making a fi
