Agriculture continued to lead the generation of new job vacancies in 2020 after being the only sector to open jobs in the first half of the year, with 62,663 in the total for the first six months.

In July alone, this sector opened another 23,000 job vacancies. Among the main segments generating jobs during this period are temporary crops, permanent crops, horticulture, cattle farming, planted forests, poultry farming, and swine farming, among others.

The construction sector came in second place in the study, also showing an increase in jobs, totaling 8,742 vacancies between January and July, nearly 10 times less than that achieved by agriculture. Check the technical report that addresses the full study by clicking here.
