Currently, the Japanese agricultural sector is in need of recruiting a large number of human resources. With many advantages such as low cost, no skills required, etc., agriculture is one of the attractive orders for many people who want to work in Japan.
Despite being a modern industrial sector with high-tech machinery and equipment, the number of Japanese people participating in agriculture has not even reached 3% of the total population of this country.
Due to the aging population, the young Japanese labor force, which is already small, is even less interested in agricultural jobs. That has prompted the Government of this country to accept foreign labor to come and work.
1. Low-cost agricultural orders
Compared to other orders, exporting labor to Japan in the agricultural sector has a fairly low cost, only from 100 million to 140 million VND. In addition, Japan continuously recruits a large number of workers in the agricultural sector, so workers have many opportunities and the possibility of being selected is much easier than other orders.
Below are some orders with attractive salaries that we are recruiting:
| Công việc | Độ tuổi | Thu nhập | Nơi làm việc |
| Trồng rau nhà kính | 20-33 | 145,000 Yên | Mie |
| Trồng và sơ chế hành tây | 18-28 | 150,000 Yên | Shiga |
| Đóng gói nấm | 20-36 | 147,600 Yên | Tochigi |
| Cắt tỉa cây cảnh | 18-32 | 158,000 Yên | Nagano |
| Thu hoạch cam/quýt | 20-33 | 141,800 Yên | Kagoshima |
| Trồng hoa | 19-34 | 138,600 Yên | Akita |
| Chăn nuôi bò sữa | 20-32 | 152,000 Yên | Hokkaido |
| Chăn nuôi lợn | 20-36 | 149,000 Yên | Chiba |
Not to mention that if the time to go to Japan for other orders is quite long, for the agricultural sector, workers only need to study the language for 4-6 months at the company to be able to go abroad.
2. Popularity
Most workers going to work abroad have to face the problem of education, skills, and expertise. For other industries, there are often some requirements regarding work experience, professional qualifications, or even requirements regarding appearance and gender.
However, companies recruiting agricultural workers in Japan often do not have too strict requirements.
Agricultural orders to Japan often do not require experience or skills, but only diligence, so workers from 19 to 37 years old, even without a degree, can easily participate.
3. Attractive income level
The basic salary that agricultural workers in Japan receive ranges from 130,000 to 150,000 yen/month (excluding overtime).
Even though the Japanese currency, the yen, is showing signs of decline, in general, this is still a high income compared to working abroad in other countries.
4. Modern working environment
Since the last century, Japan has been one of the leading countries in applying scientific and technological achievements and modern technology to production and life.
Therefore, it can be said that not only workers in the Japanese agricultural sector but also workers in other industries are exposed to many advanced tools and equipment and are able to learn and improve many professional skills.
5. Diverse jobs in the agricultural sector
Below are just a few of the jobs in the agricultural sector that we would like to introduce to our readers.
Growing vegetables in greenhouses
These are orders that receive a lot of attention and attract workers. Because this job has a very good nature.
Although it is a bit difficult because it is often affected by the weather, in return the work is not as restrictive and fixed as in a factory but is quite comfortable, and does not have to be done continuously like on a production line.
Farming, growing vegetables
Although greenhouse technology in Japan is quite developed and widespread, traditional Japanese agriculture still plays an extremely important role in intensive farming.
Traditional agricultural jobs such as growing rice, vegetables, fruits, etc. are currently being continued and developed by households and businesses.
Although there are some difficulties because of the constant influence of the weather, in return the work is not as restrictive and fixed as in a factory but is quite comfortable, and does not have to be done continuously like on a production line.
Livestock
Unlike Vietnam, the livestock industry in Japan is the most advanced and modern in the world with a large investment in scientific knowledge along with many machines and equipment.
Raising dairy cows, pigs, chickens, etc. are jobs that are often in the top of the popular list of Japanese agriculture.
As a country with the most modern and developed agricultural industry in the world, Japan is a dream working environment for workers who are planning to go abroad to work to earn a higher income.
