In this episode of the Humans of Agriculture podcast, Oli Le Lievre is joined by Jordy Kitsche, founder of Flux Robotics. We follow Jordy's journey from growing up on a farm in South Australia, to founding not one, but two AgTech businesses and then being a finalist in the 2023 AgriFutures evokeAG. Future Young Leader Award. For Jordy, it started on the family cropping farm where he had a list of problems he wanted to fix that was a mile long... He was listening to podcasts on the tractor, learning about various technology and software that he thought could help him solve some of these problems. But first, Jordy wanted to understand agriculture more broadly, which took him overseas to South America and Africa. From there, he ended up working in the commercialisation and product development of different technologies. All of this set him up to be the CEO of a business at the ripe age of 22!
“I try to think, ‘What am I actually passionate about?’ Because I'm passionate about all sorts of things… I think what I'm passionate about is solving important problems that I think I'm well-placed to solve. It's like if I don't do it, then who is this going to? Is it going to be solved?” - Jordy
