For our final episode of Season 3, we are excited to discuss Genesmith,  a startup within neXtgen Agri.

Mark catches up with Ian Harris, Electronics and Data Science Manager at neXtgen Agri who, along side Ali Alqassab and Jack Zarifeh, are developing facial recognition cameras to apply the power of machine learning to the livestock industry.  We are starting with matching lambs and ewes, in the paddock at a commercial scale.  We believe this will unlock an enormous opportunity in the sheep industry.

This is a fascinating insight into the future of the industry and where tech might take us.
