Grain, Oilseed or Pasture Grower / Field Crop Grower — South Australia Nomination

Grain, Oilseed or Pasture Grower / Field Crop Grower in South Australia — nomination overview

Grain, Oilseed or Pasture Grower (ANZSCO 121214) appears on the Regional Occupation List (ROL) and is eligible for state nomination in South Australia under the South Australian Skilled Migration program. Skilled migrants with a valid SkillSelect Expression of Interest may be invited to apply once South Australia opens invitations for this occupation. South Australia accepts offshore and onshore candidates and often prioritises those with a local job offer or South Australian study history. Skills assessment from VETASSESS is required, covering qualifications and work experience against Australian occupational standards. Applicants must demonstrate English language proficiency through an approved test and satisfy health and character requirements. The only nomination pathway is the Subclass 491 Skilled Work Regional visa, a provisional visa requiring three years of regional residence and employment at or above the income threshold before transitioning to permanent residence through the Subclass 191 visa. Subclass 190 nomination is not available for ROL-only occupations. A successful state nomination adds fifteen points to the applicant's points test score. Processing in South Australia typically takes a few weeks to two months, and visa fees are payable to the Department of Home Affairs. For advice tailored to your individual circumstances, always consult a registered MARA migration agent.
