The Mar Plástico (Plastic Sea) of intensive farming in El Ejido is mainly tended to by migrant workers, who were the target of rioting in February 2000.[3]

From 5 to 7 February 2000, the Spanish town of El Ejido in the province of Almería experienced race riots against its Moroccan agricultural workers. The rioting was triggered by the recent murders of two Spanish men and a Spanish woman by two separate Moroccan individuals. The rioting was described at the time as the worst instances of racial violence in modern Spanish history.[3][4][5]
