Just wondering if anyone can give me some info on Ag flying in Africa. What operators are worth talking to? and where are they based? Do they take on seasonal pilots?

Also, can anyone tell me what I would have to do to convert my Australian licence and Ag rating to allow me to fly in Africa?

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Orsmond would be a good option as stated above.
Also look at Fieldair's website down under, they had an ad for an ag job in South Africa a couple months back.

I'm also interested in a job in Africa (above all south africa); I was just looking on the web for that.

I found orsmond aviation website, but Fieldair's website seems a australian company.

Any other suggestion? I'm really interested in discover South Africa!

Thanks
