For those eager to get away from the hustle and bustle, the job ads in Tristan da Cunha are undoubtedly very attractive. The world's most remote and inhabited island is currently looking for farmers for its 265 residents to help develop agriculture and animal husbandry on the island.

Barter is still prevalent on the island

Tristan da Cunha Islands has issued a job advertisement hoping to find an experienced farmer to guide the island's agriculture and animal husbandry and free its residents from dependence on imported food, the Daily Mail reported Monday.

Where is the Tristan da Cunha Islands? This volcanic archipelago in the South Atlantic is one of the British overseas territories and the most remote and inhabited outlying island in the world.

How remote is it? The archipelago is 1243 miles from St. Helena, 1491 miles from South Africa and 2088 miles from South America. Because there is no airport, if you want to get to the island, you can only go by boat. Although there are ships from Cape Town, South Africa, there are only a few flights every year. This year, only nine ships sail from Cape Town to Tristan da Cunha.

How isolated? It was not until 2001 that the islanders became interested in television. To this day, barter is still popular on the island. According to reports, there are nine large families on the island that exchange food with each other in accordance with the principles of equality and sharing.

The islanders hope to grow fruits and vegetables

At present, there are 265 islanders in the archipelago, who are also villagers of the only village in the volcanic archipelago, Edinburgh of the Seven Seas.

For the 170-square-kilometer archipelago, 265 islanders are definitely sparsely populated, but there are more wildlife on the island. In addition to the remoteness of the geographical location, the reason for the sparse population is also related to the relatively poor living conditions on the island.

According to the official website of Tristan da Cunha, because of the mountains, no natural ports, scarce arable land and frequent heavy rain and high winds, early developers did not expect to live in the islands.

According to reports, although the archipelago was discovered as early as 1506, it was uninhabited until it was used by American whalers in the 18th century. Later, when Napoleon was exiled to St. Helena in 1815, Britain annexed the archipelago and stationed it in 1816 to ensure that the Tristan da Cunha Islands would not be used as a springboard to rescue Napoleon. When the garrison withdrew to England, three men stayed and became the original founders of the village.

At present, the islanders mainly grow potatoes, but hope to grow fruits, vegetables and other crops, which now rely mainly on imports. As a result, the archipelago government decided to issue a recruitment notice in the hope that someone would be willing to come to the world's most remote island to give guidance to the islanders on agriculture and animal husbandry.

Provide free accommodation and travel opportunities

According to the application conditions issued by the Government of Tristan da Cunha, candidates need to be able to adapt to life in this unique community and provide guidance to islanders in agriculture and animal husbandry. Specifically, candidates should understand agricultural rotation, orchard management, greenhouse vegetable cultivation, and also know how to take care of cattle and sheep, and be able to deal with diseases in modern medical ways when livestock are sick.

According to reports, the Tristan da Cunha archipelago currently has about 1000 acres of low-quality grazing land, with 300 cattle and 500 sheep.

The remuneration is to provide free accommodation and travel opportunities, the salary is based on the applicant's experience, and the working period is 2 years.

Tristan da Cunha also said that although it is remote and sparsely populated, the local facilities are readily available, with churches, supermarkets, bars, cafes, hospitals, museums and tourist centers. There is even a golf course on the island, but it is also a pasture for grazing cattle.

Although it takes a different kind of courage to live on such a remote island, it is a great job opportunity for those who try to get away from the hustle and bustle. It is said that the government of Tristan da Cunha has received a large number of applications to settle on the island, but the gate of the archipelago has been closed to the outside world.

Now comes the chance to live in Tristan da Cunha. Alan Brown, head of the online recruitment website NFU in the UK, said it was the first time he had encountered such an interesting position after 30 years in the recruitment field. However, the position is currently available only to British citizens.
