Nick and his brother Jack co-founded Cotter Agritech with a vision of dramatically reducing chemical use in agriculture while increasing productivity and profitability. Their system uses advanced algorithms to enable livestock farmers transition from blanket treating animals with antiparasitic drugs, to a very precise application by identifying and targeting only the animals that need treatment. This approach reduces antiparasitic drug use by up to 50%, which reduces costs, drug resistance, and impacts on biodiversity. Nick's ambition is to scale globally as he believes every livestock farmer around the world would be better off if this invention is available to them.
