The California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) and Specialty Crop Ag Workforce Development Program are conducting a survey of agricultural employers – and they need your help.

As California’s agricultural system evolves with new technologies and practices, the workforce requires new skills. To address these needs, CDFA and the Specialty Crop Ag Workforce Development Program are gathering input from employers. Survey results will help identify necessary trainings, classes and certifications needed across the state’s production regions, promoting long-term career opportunities. The survey is part of a partnership with the Agricultural Council of California, California Farmworker Foundation, Central Valley Community Foundation, and Western Growers.

Take the Survey to provide your anonymous input on agricultural workforce needs.
