The growth in average salary offers for agronomists is partly due to changes in qualification requirements for these specialists. Today, the range of tasks of an agronomist includes working with digital technology, managing machines and processes. The increase in the volume of agricultural work also affects the increased demand for warehouse workers — pickers and packers. These employees are involved in several areas at once: production, retail, e-comm and others. Employers’ demand for packers in the agricultural industry alone has grown by 87% in a year— comments the director of the category «Working and linear professions» Avito Works Alexander Sampetov.
