It’s time to put a spotlight on the hidden face of agriculture.

Half of all you eat is produced by women. Women make up 50% of the rural workforce. They generate half of all farm income.

Women farmers rarely get, or take, the credit they deserve. At a time when agriculture is facing a triple whammy - a serious shortfall of skilled workers, increasing pressure to produce more food for a growing population and ever more challenging climate conditions - half of its potential leaders are largely overlooked.

The Visible Farmer film project is now criss-crossing the country to discover the untold stories of the gutsy women behind our food and fibre, and the vital, innovative role they play.
For the first time it gives our female farmers a contemporary, authentic voice to inspire more women to step forward and help shape the future of Australia’s food production.
