Each year the AgriFutures Rural Women鈥檚 Award celebrates the essential role women play across regional Australia.
Women from each state and territory are celebrated for their exceptional contribution to their communities, now and into the future.

Winners from other state and territories included farmers, psychologists, marine biologists, and scientists and no formal qualifications are required to apply.
National and state finalists receive a $15,000 bursary to enable their continued support of a project, business or program that benefits the rural community.
