En FY2026 (through Q2), el Departamento de Trabajo certificó 9,126 vacantes H-2A para lugares de trabajo en Louisiana — #7 entre todos los estados — en 1,137 solicitudes de empleadores. El salario mediano ofrecido fue $9.59/hora (mitad central de las ofertas: $9.59–$14.83).
Temporada de contratación
El 81% de las vacantes certificadas en Louisiana empiezan en enero, marzo o febrero, y una temporada típica dura unos 9.5 meses. Los empleadores presentan la solicitud al DOL una mediana de 52 días antes de la fecha de inicio — así que las vacantes para empezar en enero suelen aparecer en SeasonalJobs.dol.gov alrededor de noviembre.

Cómo se consiguen estos trabajos
La visa H-2A permite a empleadores de EE. UU. contratar trabajadores extranjeros para trabajo agrícola temporal: siembra, cosecha, empaque, viveros e invernaderos, ganado y lechería. El proceso lo inicia el empleador, no el trabajador: primero debe ofrecer el puesto a trabajadores estadounidenses, obtener la certificación del Departamento de Trabajo que se muestra en esta página y luego pedir las visas a USCIS.
Cada vacante certificada debe publicarse en el registro oficial del DOL, SeasonalJobs.dol.gov — ahí se buscan y solicitan las vacantes vigentes. Cuidado con quien cobre "cuotas de visa" al trabajador: cobrar honorarios de reclutamiento a trabajadores H-2A es ilegal.
