Mixed crop and animal producers
In the ILO's assessment few of the job's tasks can be done by generative AI, or the scores are too spread out to reach gradient 1 — generative AI does not meaningfully take over the core of the work.
Exposure is not job loss: it shows how much of the work generative AI could do today. Whether that turns into transformation, productivity gains or cuts depends on employers, regulation — and on you.
0 = today’s generative AI cannot perform any of the job’s tasks, 100 = it could do all of them fully. The pale band is the spread across tasks.

Task by task
The ILO scored every task of the occupation separately, as the average of two AI models (GPT-4o and Gemini). The pale band is the range between the two models' scores, the dot the ILO's final score (for a few tasks expert review placed it outside the band).
- Monitoring market activity and conditions, determining kinds and amounts of crops to be grown and animals to be raised, and planning and coordinating production accordingly44
- Promoting and marketing products, arranging the sale, purchase and transportation of livestock, produce and supplies, and maintaining and evaluating records of farm activities and transactions34
- Training and supervising workers in animal care procedures, maintenance duties and health and safety precautions, and hiring and discharging workers and contractors.24
- Purchasing seeds, fertilizer and other supplies17
- Renting or investing in, and maintaining and cleaning farm buildings, machinery, equipment and structures15
- Producing or buying fodder and other food supplies14
- Storing and carrying out some processing of produce14
- Breeding, raising and tending animals12
- Performing operations such as land preparation, sowing, planting, cultivating and harvesting crops9
- Killing and skinning animals, and preparing animals or animal products for market9

What do they earn?
Mean gross monthly earnings in the major occupational group (Skilled agricultural, forestry and fishery workers). Eurostat's earnings survey only publishes pay by occupation at 1 digit, so this is the job's broader group. Enterprises with 10+ employees, 2022.
By country, at purchasing power parity (PPS/month), so countries with different price levels can be compared.

Outlook to 2035
Employment in the Market-oriented skilled agricultural workers group according to Cedefop's 2026 forecast.
thousand · Cedefop Skills Forecast 2026 · 2026–2035: projection
Replacement demand is the jobs left by people retiring or changing careers — even a shrinking occupation can have many openings.
