Zara Egerton-Warburton grew up on a farm in Kojonup in Western Australia’s Great Southern region, shaping her early connection to agriculture. Boarding in Perth provided broader exposure to education and industry opportunities. She is currently studying Agricultural Science, progressing toward a master’s at the University of Western Australia, specialising in Soil Science and Plant Nutrition. As a 2026 AgriFutures Horizon Scholar, supported by the Grains Research and Development Corporation (GRDC), Zara is looking forward to expanding her understanding of the grains industry, building strong industry networks, and contributing to research and innovation that supports productive and sustainable agricultural systems.
