There's a min wage that's keyed to how much it would take to hire US workers for the same job (adverse effect wage rate, AEWR). So in theory this is how much H2A workers get paid. And it's how much contractors charge farmers to rent H2A workers. Plus fees for housing, food, transport, etc.
Map of US showing AEWR in each state. It ranges from $13.67 in the deep south to $18.65 in CA.

THREAD H2A guest worker visas are finally a big enough program that farmers are ready to switch to that instead of undoc'd workers. That's why they're rounding up undoc'd people. Farms don't really need them anymore, & they're "too hard to control." That hasn't changed!
