About agriculture in Koo-Wee-Rup
Located in the West Gippsland region of Victoria, Koo-Wee-Rup sits on the edge of the Western Port Bay, approximately 63 kilometers southeast of Melbourne. The town is situated on the fertile reclaimed lands of what was once the Great Swamp, characterized by flat, dark, and highly productive soils that dominate the surrounding rural landscape.
The area is widely recognized as Australia's premier asparagus-growing region, producing a significant portion of the national crop. Beyond asparagus, the rich peat soils support intensive vegetable production, including potatoes and onions, alongside traditional dairy farming and beef cattle grazing on the lush surrounding pastures.
Farm workers and agronomists will find the most significant demand during the asparagus harvest, which typically runs from August to December. Opportunities include harvesting, packing, and quality control roles, as well as positions in crop management and soil science for those specializing in high-intensity vegetable cultivation.
