Visa options for Horticultural Crop Grower are set out below. Horticultural Crop Grower is not currently listed on the Core Skills Occupation List (CSOL).
Horticultural Crop Grower is not on the Core Skills Occupation List (CSOL) published by the Department of Home Affairs, so the Subclass 482 Core Skills stream and the 186 Direct Entry stream are not open on this title. As at 2026-09-25 the Department's combined list has no entry under ANZSCO 121699, so no MLTSSL, STSOL or ROL pathway (189, 190, 491 or 494) can be shown for Horticultural Crop Grower here; a labour agreement or a Designated Area Migration Agreement is the usual route where an occupation is off the lists.
