When choosing farm-produced items,,, bananas, pineapples, watermelons, and so on are extremely heavy when you move. But for those with a lot of energy, this might be fine,,,
When stacking and moving them or carrying them in a basket, please choose items that are less strenuous.
Apples, oranges, mangoes ,,, light, right,,, just one or two ,,, Would it be hard to ,,,,pack them in a basket or make a box and carry them out?
Strawberries, cherries, blueberries, chili peppers, green onions, and so on would be better.
. On very large farms based on strawberries, the work is divided and the hourly pay differs.
Of course, on small farms, you can only do picking & packing
1. Farmhand - Installation and maintenance work related to the entire farm
2. Box Job - Helping packers and carrying strawberry trays or pallets
3. Cutting Weaving - Cutting dead leaves grown on seedlings and removing weeds
4. Hand Picking - Strawberry picking by hand
5. Picking - Harvesting strawberries using trolleys
6. Packing - Packing the harvested strawberries, etc,,,
. After obtaining rough information, contact the farm directly to check and book work, working environment, compensation, accommodation, and more.
- Some workholers provide personal vehicles for efficient job hunting (around Adelaide, Brisbane, and Queensland)
* If you have a private car, you can help others commute and earn money.
. Before working on the farm, there are things you need to prepare according to the season. Some men don't mind it individually,
There are things women need to take care of. Summer is naturally hot, but since you work and move around, it gets even hotter, and the sunlight is hot.
- Hat, long-sleeve shirt, work gloves, sunscreen, water patches, muscle relaxant, sneakers, cream (Popo cream), small bottle, etc.
. Pay Payment Method
- Hourly rates: Suitable for those new to farm work. You just need to meet the allotted amount for each hour.
- Contract rates: You get paid based on the amount you work, which is great for those who have worked on the farm a lot.
. Documents to prepare for the second visa application
- 1263 form: Documents required for visa extension. Fill in the farm address, business registration number (ABN number), and the period of employment on the farm. This document
The farm owner must write it themselves
- Payment summary: A total payroll statement. This is needed to get a refund for taxes paid to the Australian government, but these days, this payment sumari is automatically reported to the IRS, so check it.
- Payslip: Weekly pay statement
- Super Summary: This is a document that work-holiday workers can receive when their farm is deducted from the super solutions (super solutions), but there aren't many farms that deduct the pension as well. It's needed to get back the deducted pension
Other proof of staying in the farm area (shopping receipts, accommodation receipts, etc.): Occasionally, the immigration department requests additional supporting documents for issuing a second visa
Each farm calculates the number of days worked differently, so there are cases where the 88-day second visa requirement is not met, so it's important to check carefully.
