A crop production worker already meets 73% of what the agronomic crop production team leader role asks for. The move turns on 8 required skills not yet in the profile.
73%
38.8/ 100
1 Share of the agronomic crop production team leader role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the crop production worker profile. Required skills count in full, supplementary skills at 0.35. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. 2 Combines what is missing with how specialised it is, so a gap of general skills scores easier than the same number of narrow ones.
Why this move works
A agronomic crop production team leader role treats 28 of its required skills as things a crop production worker already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- agroecology
- agroforestry
- assign duties to agriculture workers
- crop production principles
- ecology
- execute disease and pest control activities
What stands in the way is 8 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.
Table 2 · What you already bring
Of the 38 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A agronomic crop production team leader role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a crop production worker background worth leading with.
- already held technical equipment for crop production agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary
- already held apply alternate wetting and drying techniques handling and moving
- already held prepare equipment for harvest working with machinery and specialised equipment
- already held irrigate soil handling and moving
- already held manage crop rotation handling and moving
- already held conservation agriculture agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary
All 38 carried skills, including the 28 the agronomic crop production team leader role treats as required.

How this record was compiled
Both occupations are taken from ESCO, which lists the skills and knowledge each occupation is expected to have and marks every one required or optional. Nothing here is a prediction about hiring, and nothing here knows that a particular employer wants a particular certificate. Treat Table 3 as a starting point for your own research rather than a syllabus. The full method states what these figures can and cannot tell you.
