Guidance from job tag (Japanese)
入職にあたって、特に学歴や資格は必要とされない。高校、専門学校等で農業について学んだり、研修やセミナーなどで、土づくり、植物の生態、データに基づいた環境調節技術、経営等を学ぶと役に立つ。
　畑を耕すトラクター、収穫物を運ぶトラック等を運転するので、普通自動車免許、大型特殊自動車免許等も必要である。ハウス栽培には、ボイラーの取り扱いもあり、ボイラー技士、危険物取扱者もあるとよい。
　機械や身体を使っての反復作業が多いので、ある程度の体力が必要で、根気があり辛抱強いことも求められる。生物を育てることに興味と熱意があり、自然の中で働くことが好きな人に向いている。栽培する野菜の品質を高めるため、新たな栽培技術の導入や品種改良の情報を集める等技術習得に努める姿勢が大切である。また、栽培品目や栽培時期などを判断するために、消費者のニーズを的確につかむ情報収集も重要となる。自営の場合は、経営能力も必要となる。
