‘We’re trying to democratize access for this’
Zulj believes tools like generative AI can “revolutionize” the way farmers gain knowledge and make decisions, and that rolling out such a service on a national level will “truly make an impact for the entire agriculture in Barbados.”
For the Barbados agreement, AGRIVI sold the technology to the country’s Ministry of Agriculture, which then makes it available to farms at no cost to the farmer.
“Our goal with this is to bring a completely white-label model where we partner with governments, big companies, input companies, and they bring it to their ecosystem of farms for free,” says Zulj. “We’re trying to democratize access for this.”
He says the Barbados initiative, among others, “is crucial because governments play a key role in helping farms enhance productivity, sustainability, and livelihoods. By offering every farm, regardless of size, access to expert knowledge and advice through familiar channels at any time, marks a significant milestone in the digitalization of agriculture globally.”
Without giving too many details, Zulj suggests similar initiatives will roll out in other countries and regions including Europe, Latin America, and Asia.
“We can expect to see it happen very fast.”
