"The work was seasonal."
Farmers hired migrant labor because demand for workers peaked at planting and harvest. Keeping full-time employees year-round would be costly when little or no labor was needed between seasons. The other choices are incorrect: they often needed many workers at peak times (not just a few), and moving crops to market doesn’t explain why temporary rather than permanent workers were used.
