About citrus picking jobs
Citrus picking jobs across Australia run through the cooler months, March to October, in the Riverland, Sunraysia, the Riverina and Queensland. It is steady, long-season work for stacking visa days.
Where the work is
The big citrus regions are the Riverland in South Australia, Sunraysia around Mildura, the Riverina in New South Wales, and Gayndah and Mundubbera in Queensland, which call themselves the citrus capital.
The work
You pick into a bag and empty it into bins, often using a ladder for the higher fruit. The work is steady and the season is long, so it suits anyone chasing a solid block of visa days.
The casual minimum is $30.91 per hour. Many picking jobs pay piece rates instead, where faster workers earn more. See our pay rates guide for detail.
Most regional farm work counts toward your 88 days. Check the rules in our 88 days guide.
