Today's episode features a truly inspiring guest, Kent Egerton-Warburton, whose groundbreaking work in agricultural technology has earned him a prestigious Medal of the Order of Australia.
Kent's journey began 40 years ago on his own sheep farm, where he identified a need for better technological tools to manage farming operations. With no formal background in computer science, Kent embarked on a mission to learn programming himself. This remarkable self-education led to the creation of Agrimaster, a software designed initially to meet the needs of his farming business.
Kent's story is not just about the evolution of a software, but also about adapting to change, tackling unforeseen challenges, and continuing to innovate in a sector that forms the backbone of Australia's economy.
Agrimaster has since evolved to become a critical tool for thousands of farmers across Australia, helping them manage everything from finances to resource planning more effectively. Kent's vision and tenacity transformed a personal project into an indispensable resource in the Agtech sector, demonstrating the impact of innovation and determination.
In this special episode, Kent will share insights into his unique path from sheep farming to software development, the challenges he faced, and how his solutions have advanced agricultural practices.
