Farmers to host Vietnamese Ag Visa holders

Fruit and vegetable growers are being given more access to foreign workers to help plant, harvest and pack produce for local and international markets.

Vietnam has agreed to take part in the federal government’s Ag Visa scheme, meaning workers from the south-east Asian country will be able to work on Australian farms.

Rural editor Sophie Clarke caught up with AUSVEG National Public Affairs Manager Tyson Cattle to hear more about the development.
