WOMEN from across the Wheatbelt, Great Southern and South Coast regions were keen to talk all things farming at the annual Women in Farming Enterprises day at Lake Grace last week.
While many were eager to discuss how the season has been going for other growers in and outside their region, the day aimed to highlight and celebrate successful women in the agricultural and regional workforce and provide information on how they can improve their businesses.
Attendees heard from speakers who shared stories of breaking through barriers and combatting the stigma of being a woman in male-dominated workplaces, balancing work with family and being a young woman in agriculture.
Presenters also shared the results of a recent trial, whether yield is king for cropping, the importance of communication in farming enterprises and the dangers posed on farm businesses through cyber crime.
