Working in North Dakota
Extremely fertile soil in North Dakota accounts for a flourishing agricultural economy compared to other states. Taking the trophy in flaxseed, canola, and durum wheat, farmers produce enough wheat for approximately 13.5 billion loaves of bread and enough durum for nearly 6.3 billion servings of spaghetti. Western North Dakota, experiencing terrain less suitable for grain crops, yields profits from beef, dairy cattle, and hogs. Incomes from over 1.7 million head of cattle amount to just under 385 million pounds of milk produced by dairy cattle. With 90% of land encompassed by farming, popular revenue generators also include sunflowers, honey, potatoes, sugar beets, and turkeys. One-fourth of the economic base of The Roughrider State stems from prevalent commodities, which makes farming the number one industry. Farm-related employment provides close to 24% of available working opportunities, as well.
A sub-humid continental climate contributes to the prosperous production of small grains and livestock. Undoubtedly, The Peace Garden State produces a range of weather extremes with 121 degrees Fahrenheit experienced six months before negative-60 degrees in 1936. However, the average January temperature falls between 2 degrees in the northeast and 17 in the southwest. An upward influx in July leaves the south with temperatures near 73 and the northeast with 67 degrees. Annual precipitation varies between 13 and 20 inches depending on location. The Red River Valley portion of The Flickertail State consists of thick black loam, some of the richest cropland available. Known as Williams soil, the rolling rangeland, comprised of a high content of organic matter, covers approximately 2.2 million acres. Dispersed across the West, sandy, porous soils require irrigation water management considerations. Farmers across the state also share a consensus on no-tillage and reduction methodologies.

Among the nearly 32,000 farms in North Dakota, Zink Farms stands as one of the largest agricultural operations in the central portion of the state. Farmhands, apprentices, and hard workers partake in job opportunities, which offer competitive wages, scheduled days off, housing, and meals provided. Located in Wahpeton, ND, KTM Farm produces quality wheat, corn, soybeans, and sugar beets. Continuous expansion each year provokes the farm to hire pickers, seasonal workers, and other farm laborers. Hourly wages begin at $8.00 and steadily climb to upwards of $15.00 an hour for seasoned professionals. Galbreath Farms operates 4,000 tillable acres and regularly employs livestock caretakers to tend to over 400 head of cattle. The farmstead occupies much more acreage compared to the average 1,200 acres of most North Dakotan ranch properties.
Entry-level candidates eagerly apply for opportunities by completing online application forms or even hand-delivering resumes. Smaller operations offer unique family-type atmospheres for self-motivated individuals possessing previous farm expertise. Large scale companies typically entice workers with healthcare insurance, bonuses, and paid time off. Common openings with little experience necessary allow seasonal employees opportunities to enjoy warm summers and escape frigid winters. Aspirants with degrees in agriculture or business qualify for higher paying positions, such as sales representatives, technicians, supervisors, machine operators, and agribusiness lenders. Annual salary packages range between $50,000 and $70,000 for advanced occupations.
