Agriculture

Australia is well-known for being a world-class producer of agricultural products such as wheat, wool, and beef. This booming industry addresses not just a countrywide demand for product, but worldwide, too. Nowadays, work in rural operations and regional areas in Western Australia is increasing in order to keep up with this demand.

  • Farm or Station Hand/Worker
  • Livestock Transport Driver
