    Farmers are continuing to pay well for good people in spite of industry challenges

    Farmers are continuing to pay well for good people in spite of industry challenges

    29 April 2024
    A new Farming Salaries Report indicates the average on-farm position wage rose 13-percent - across the dairy, sheep, beef and arable sectors.

    Federated Farmers Employment spokesperson Richard McIntyre says Covid, economics, and weather challenges have been tough on farms - but the sector knows to invest in workers.

    McIntyre says they can see the value from good staff in terms of better performance, and decreased farm costs.
