Participate in an internship on a Japanese farm in exchange for complimentary accommodation and meals. These placements are available on Sado Island and in Okinawa. The farms on Sado Island are primarily small, family-run operations focused on growing rice, fruits, and vegetables. In Okinawa, farms cultivate a variety of regional and seasonal products, including (sweet) potatoes, tropical fruits, vegetables, and spices. Tasks involve intensive work, especially during planting and harvesting seasons, but vary depending on the season. Furthermore, you require the correct visa. Many nationalities can enter Japan visa-exempt for up to 90 days under a Temporary Visitor Status. Citizens of the UAE are visa-exempted for 30 days. Alternatively, you can obtain a Working Holiday Visa if you are a citizen of one of these countries: Australia, New Zealand, Canada, South Korea, France, Germany, United Kingdom, Ireland, Denmark, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Norway, Portugal, Poland, Slovakia, Austria, Hungary, Spain, Argentina, Chile, Iceland, Czech Republic, Lithuania, Sweden, Estonia, Netherlands, Uruguay, Finland, Latvia, Luxembourg.
