Farmers applaud State Government s commitment to tackle Queensland s labour shortage

Date Time Farmers applaud State Government’s commitment to tackle Queensland’s labour shortage AgForce and the National Farmers’ Federation are supporting a State Government push to boost agricultural labour on Queensland farms. With trial on-farm quarantine arrangements for workers from Pacific Island nations now underway in Queensland, Minister for Agricultural Industry Development and Fisheries and Minister for Rural Communities Mark Furner said almost 3000 workers have been drafted in to work on farms and related businesses. The announcement comes as the Federal Government exacerbates the farm labour shortage by changing the rules for backpackers seeking to extend their Working Holiday Maker visas to second and third years – allowing them to complete their 88 days work not just on farms but now in the tourism and hospitality sectors in northern and remote Australia as well.
