Abstract: The agricultural sector of foreign countries, primarily developed ones, faced an acute shortage of labor and qualified personnel. This creates significant problems that hinder the sustainable development of agricultural production. The availability of skilled labour in agriculture is influenced by policies that cover many different areas, including education and training, labour markets, migration, regional and rural development policies. The shortage of labor and skilled personnel is of deep concern in countries with relatively extensive agricultural production, aging populations, rapid technical measurements and ongoing structural restructuring in the sector. Countries are taking different approaches to overcome these obstacles and improve the industry's image as a career destination for young people.
