    That's because your looking at the wrong time. Harvest is over and it's coming into Autumn which means no calving, lambing etc

    Do you have any experience farming, fencing, etc?

    If not, its unlikely you'll get work on an animal type farm. You'd be more of a liability than a help.

    Some parts of New Zealand are very remote, so depending on what you're in to I'd be selective about where the farm is located.
