Visa Sponsors in Agriculture, Forestry & Fishing
Agriculture, forestry and fishing covers crop and livestock farms, fruit and vegetable growers, forestry operations and commercial fishing. Sponsored roles usually sit at the skilled end, such as farm and estate managers, agronomists, vets and agricultural engineers, rather than general labour. Seasonal picking and packing work runs on a separate route from the Skilled Worker licences most employers here hold.
There are 522 licensed visa sponsors in agriculture, forestry & fishing, with 80 live jobs between them. Sponsor figures come from the official Home Office register and are updated daily.

Frequently asked questions
Which agriculture, forestry and fishing companies sponsor UK visas?
Big farming groups, agribusinesses, forestry firms and fisheries hold licences in this section. Filter the live register to agriculture, forestry and fishing to see them all, and which are hiring now.
What visa do I need to work in agriculture in the UK?
Skilled roles such as farm manager, agronomist or agricultural engineer use the Skilled Worker visa, which needs a job offer from a licensed sponsor at or above the salary and skill level set for the occupation. Lower-skilled seasonal harvest work uses the separate Seasonal Worker route instead.
Can I get sponsored for seasonal farm work in the UK?
Seasonal harvest and horticulture jobs go through the Seasonal Worker visa, which is temporary and run by a small number of approved scheme operators rather than individual farms. It sits outside the Skilled Worker route and does not lead to settlement, so check which scheme operators are approved before you apply.
