Employment Challenges in Agriculture in Australia

English

Abstract

This research studies the relationship between agriculture and human capital using three key variables, namely agriculture performance as a basic indicator. Education investment as an indicator of human capital investment and employment in agriculture as a control indicator. This study uses vector analysis method as a basis for forecasting to understand the picture of agriculture and employment in Australia. We find that Australia has succeeded in successfully investing in education to improve agricultural performance. However, it is indicated that the interest of Australian citizens in the agricultural sector continues to decline and if no precautions are taken regarding this, it will threaten the Australian agricultural sector. Another effort that can be done is to automate the agricultural system so that it can improve agriculture with less manpower.
