Problems of International Placement of Agricultural Workers from Bangladesh

Journal Title: International Journal of Business and Management Invention - Year 2019, Vol 8, Issue 1

Abstract

Global population would rise to 9 Billion from present 7.2 Billion by 2050. Accordingly, global agriculture is likely to experience further intensification to feed this increasing population. Many countries in the modern world are facing shortage of skilled and semi-skilled workers to maintain their agriculture. Bangladesh being a thickly populated country, predominantly of agrarian economy, might export its agricultural workers to meet the global demand. However, in doing so, Bangladesh must have adequate institutional arrangements to produce skilled and semi-skilled agricultural workers. Importantly, various impediments for international placement of such workers need also to be addressed on a priority basis. The study revealed that Bangladesh needed to enhance its institutional capacity to produce exportable agricultural workers and adequate government intervention would be required to counterbalance the obstacles. Countryspecific requirement for agricultural workers needs to be ascertained by the government and various diplomatic efforts are to be in place to facilitate placement of such workers in different peak seasons.
