In Italy we often talk about corporalato, a form of illegal hiring and exploitation of farm day workers (generally immigrants) through an intermediary. This is a report on a cooperative created near Rome, (Lake Martignano) by immigrants who after being rescued from sea they ended up in the "Caporalato system" in southern Italy. Escaped from it, They decided to organize themselves creating a company that produces yoghurt and vegetables in which Italians also work. Today they're still working despite the situation on delivering its product to people self isolated and in quarantine.
