Canada to conduct Express Entry draws for agriculture and agri-food workers

On September 27, 2023, Canada announced the first round of invitations for agriculture and agri-food occupations through category-based selection under Express Entry.

This will focus on candidates with experience in the agriculture and agri-food sectors, including agricultural service contractors, farm supervisors, and butchers. Canada's Express Entry system is now tailored to provide a streamlined pathway for individuals with expertise in critical fields.

By prioritizing skilled newcomers with work experience in agriculture and agri-food jobs, the government aims to meet the increasing demand for talent and fill critical positions in farming and food processing.

The category-based selection rounds and general and program-specific invitation rounds will continue throughout the year.
