Agsolutley Fabulous Turns 50! Rural Health Gaps, Deforestation & Rural Realities

We’ve hit 50 episodes! 🎉 That officially puts Agsolutley Fabulous in the top 25% of podcasts worldwide, with only 8.5% ever reaching this milestone. Thank YOU for listening, sharing, and growing this incredible community of rural women, farm families, and ag lovers right across Australia.

In this week’s episode, Katja Williams and Gillian Fennell celebrate the journey so far and dig into some of the big conversations shaping life in the bush — from women’s health to government policy and environmental challenges.

💬 This Episode Covers:

1️⃣ 50 Episodes Strong A huge thank you to every listener who’s tuned in, left a review, or shared an episode. Your support has helped us reach more rural women and give voice to those living and working in agriculture.

2️⃣ YouTube Community Tab Unlocked! We’ve just unlocked the community tab on our YouTube channel — which means we can now post polls, behind-the-scenes updates, and sneak peeks. Make sure you’re subscribed so you can vote on future episode topics!

3️⃣ Ag Fab Q&A: Deforestation & Government Policy We unpack the complex history of government decisions around deforestation, what it means for farmers today, and how environmental policy has shaped Australian agriculture.

4️⃣ Rural Health Reality Check A sobering statistic — women living in remote areas can die up to 12 years earlier than those in cities. We talk about why, what needs to change, and how rural communities continue to support one another through challenges.

5️⃣ Farm Contractors & the Dam Fine Print When a farm contractor was fined over dam works, it sparked questions about regulation, compliance, and common sense in agriculture. We break down what happened and what it means for other producers.
