There's nothing artificial about Jordy Kitschke's intelligence, and he's putting it to great use in the agricultural technology industry.

Jordy Kitschke's 15-year-old self could never have dreamed he would one day write code that could change the way Australians farm.

He grew up on a broadacre cropping property at Jamestown in the mid-north of South Australia and went on to study Agricultural Science at the University of Adelaide.

To this day, his primary focus and love is farming, but he's also dedicated to creating tech solutions for farmers.

At the age of 22, he co-founded MEQ, which uses artificial intelligence (AI) and lasers to measure the quality of meat.

Now he's founded Flux Robotics, which uses AI to selectively spray weeds with precision and has many other applications in research and development. Jordy and his Flux team are definitely the ones to watch in the ag-tech space.
