44.9/ 100

1 Share of the agronomic crop production team leader role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the fruit production team leader 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

Why this move works

A agronomic crop production team leader role treats 25 of its required skills as things a fruit production team leader already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • agroecology
  • agronomical production principles
  • assign duties to agriculture workers
  • crop production principles
  • ecology
  • ensure soil fertility

What stands in the way is 11 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.

Table 2

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 39 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 fruit production team leader background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held ensure soil fertility handling and moving
  • already held manage agritourism activities management skills
  • already held perform on-farm product processing working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held monitor fields handling and moving
  • already held provide agri-touristic services communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held types of storage facilities information and communication technologies (icts)

All 39 carried skills, including the 25 the agronomic crop production team leader role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 17 missing skills fall into 5 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered below in the order worth working in: the areas carrying the most required skills come first, and inside each one the required skills sit above the supplementary ones.

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.
