Description:
Overview This report is in the ABARES Insights series, aimed to provide evidence-based context for discussion of industry issues. ABARES maintains a series of reports about the agriculture, fisheries and forestry industry workforces, and the involvement of Indigenous people, young people, women, and culturally and linguistically diverse people. This snapshot provides statistics and trends in employment participation and workforce demographics in the agriculture industry. The information in the snapshot is based on data from the 2006, 2011 and 2016 Australian Bureau of Statistics' Census of Population and Housing. Key Issues * The Australian agriculture, fisheries and forestry workforce is made up of a diverse range of people of varying ages, genders, cultural backgrounds who contribute significantly. * The snapshot covers the location of workers, what sub-industries and occupations they work in, their age and income distribution, mobility, employment status and educational attainment. Comparisons are made between sub-industries, the total agricultural workforce, and the general Australian workforce. * Similar snapshots of Australia's fisheries and forestry industry workforces are planned to be released in early 2019.
