We list all types of agricultural work across Australia, including fruit picking, packing, pruning, dairy, livestock, viticulture (grape and wine work), cropping, tractor driving, farm hand roles, station work, and more.

Many of the jobs listed on Farm Work Australia are in regional areas and involve work that qualifies as “specified work” for the Working Holiday Visa (subclass 417) second and third year extensions. Check the specific job listing and the Australian Government’s immigration website to confirm eligibility. We also have a detailed guide on 88 days farm work requirements.

All job listings on our site are posted by the employers themselves. We review listings before they go live. Be cautious of any employer (on any platform) who asks you to pay upfront fees for a job placement, accommodation bonds before you arrive, or “registration fees.” Legitimate employers don’t charge workers to get hired.

Employers manage their own applications. Response times vary depending on their needs and the volume of applicants. If you haven’t heard back after a week, it’s fine to follow up directly with the employer. In the meantime, keep applying for other roles.

Some job listings include accommodation details. We don’t arrange accommodation or transport directly, but many farming regions have working hostels, caravan parks, and shared housing options. Check the job listing for details, or ask the employer when you apply.
