Rose Fisher was raised on a sheep and cropping farm in northeast Victoria, where she developed a strong connection to agriculture and rural communities. Inspired by her family’s innovation and resilience, she is now studying a Bachelor of Agriculture at the University of Melbourne, majoring in Plant and Soil Science. Rose is particularly interested in integrating biological and biochemical approaches to reduce risk in cropping systems, alongside emerging engineering solutions. As a 2026 AgriFutures Horizon Scholar, supported by the Grains Research and Development Corporation (GRDC), she is eager to build industry connections and contribute to future-focused, resilient broadacre farming systems.
