The AgriFutures Rural Women’s Award is Australia’s leading award in acknowledging and supporting the essential role women play in rural and emerging business, industries and communities.

Due to COVID-19 this year our National Winner and Runner Up will be announced via a live virtual National Announcement event on Wednesday, 20 October 2021 at 12:30pm (AEDT).

The event is open to the public and it is free to register. There are seven inspiring 2020 AgriFutures Rural Women’s Award State and Territory Winners vying for the National title and over the next seven weeks and we are going to hear their stories. 

This week’s podcast first aired in December last year with 2020 AgriFutures Rural Women’s Award TAS Winner, Karen Brock.
 
Karen grows and supplies commercial fruit trees, and she is also a specialist in plant tissue culture. 

Karen is speaking with AgriFutures podcaster Chris Brown.
