The Pre‑Harvest Survey Report gives an overview of the kiwifruit industry’s labour needs leading into harvest. It outlines expected workforce demand, the mix of workers – New Zealanders, RSE employees, and Working Holiday Visa holders – and typical pay rates and job durations for pre‑harvest tasks. The report helps growers plan ahead by highlighting seasonal trends, peak labour periods, and the impact of industry growth on staffing requirements.
