Agriculture Recruiters in Vietnam
The economy in Vietnam is continuously developing, and agriculture makes up a third of the country's GDP (1), with over a half of the Vietnamese population recruited to work in the agricultural sector. The advantages of huge amounts of cultivatable land, tropical climate and sea territories are very favourable to the Vietnamese agricultural economy, and today Vietnam out-performs many of its major Asian competitors in terms of agricultural production growth. The EU-Vietnam free trade agreement which came into force on August 1st 2020 has also encouraged Vietnam’s agricultural export revenues have grown by an impressive 1.6% to US$30.05 billion over the first nine months of 2020.
With this phenomenal growth in the area, Peak are well placed to recruit for prime agricultural roles
Recruitment for Agriculture in Cambodia
Whilst Cambodia's (2) agriculture accounts for a little over 20% of Cambodia's GDP, the growth in Cambodia's agricultural sector averaged 5.4% between 2004 - 2012 which was amongst the highest in the world, with agricultural gross production growing by 8.7% because of higher paddy rice production.
Positive developments in the agricultural sector have meant that Cambodian poverty dropped 53% in the early 2010's and this trend has continued. The drop in poverty was due new technologies, expanded irrigation and better access to markets in agriculture. Recognising this expanding market, Peak Recruitment has wide experience in finding the right staff for the top agribusinesses in Cambodia and the surrounding areas.
