The situation with human resources in the agricultural sector is catastrophic, especially in small and medium-sized farms, which have not been recognized as critical. A large number of employees of such farms have been mobilized
He says that there is a great shortage of tractor drivers and combine operators are critically lacking.
There is a shortage of agronomists. If a person with a similar profession posts a job ad, 100 employers may call him or her within a day and offer everything possible to reduce competition
