In June 2020, there were 28,800 regular and seasonal employees working in agriculture. This is a decline of two per cent compared to June 2019.
This is due to a decline in regular full-time staff and seasonal labour. The number of regular full-time workers fell by two per cent, from 13,100 to 12,800. The number of seasonal labourers decreased by four per cent. The number of regular part-time workers increased by two per cent. It is possible that some staff who were previously working full-time are now working part-time.
