Happy couple enjoying ice cream in retirement.

Fortunately for Australian income investors, there are a lot of dividend-payers to choose from on the Australian share market.

To narrow things down, I have picked out four ASX dividend shares that brokers are bullish on right now. Here’s what sort of yields they are forecasting from them:

Aurizon Holdings Ltd (ASX: AZJ)

The first ASX dividend share that could be a buy is Australia’s largest rail freight operator, Aurizon.

The team at Ord Minnett is bullish on the company and has an accumulate rating and $4.70 price target on its shares.

As for dividends, its analysts are forecasting partially franked dividends of 17.8 cents per share in FY 2024 and then 24.3 cents per share in FY 2025. Based on the latest Aurizon share price of $3.81, this will mean dividend yields of 4.7% and 6.4%, respectively.

Mining giant BHP could be another ASX dividend share to buy according to analysts at Goldman Sachs.

The broker thinks its shares are good value at current levels and is expecting some attractive yields in the near term.

It is forecasting fully franked dividends of US$1.42 (A$2.14) per share in FY 2024 and then US$1.26 (A$1.90) per share in FY 2025. Based on the current BHP share price of $42.91, this equates to dividend yields of 5% and 4.4%, respectively.

A final ASX dividend share that could be a buy is IPH. It is an intellectual property solutions company with operations across the world.
