Seasonal farmers: financial assistance for the payment of your rent

The aid for seasonal workers in the agricultural sector, proposed by Action Logement, is paid at a rate of €150 per month, for a maximum period of 4 months; the maximum amount of the subsidy is thus €600 per year.

To receive this financial assistance, you must meet the following conditions:

• be employed by a company in the agricultural sector;
• have a seasonal employment contract or fixed-term contract with the words “seasonal”;
• justify charges for accommodation located close to your workplace.

What are the housing conditions for receiving this assistance?

Several types of accommodation are supported by the device:

• rental;
• subletting;
• bed and breakfast;
• gite;
• tourist residence;
• homestay room;
• camping.

Your occupation of the dwelling must be formalized by a lease, an occupation agreement (excluding CROUS) or any other type of document proving a contract.

To learn more about eligibility requirements and apply for support, visit the dedicated page on the Action Logement website.

The request for assistance can be made up to 6 months after the start of your seasonal contract (this period starts at the earliest on the date of the pre-employment declaration and at the latest at the end of the trial period).
