AGREEN DEFI

THE FIRST AI HACKATHON OF SPACE

A HACKATHON TO GET THINGS MOVING!

WHAT IS AN AI HACKATHON?

A collective intelligence event where data scientists, developers, and professionals from the agricultural industry collaborate to imagine artificial intelligence solutions in response to field challenges.

The concept: Participants have two days to develop a functional prototype. Accompanied by experts, they will leverage generative AI technologies and open-source databases to design concrete and impactful solutions tailored to needs of partner companies.

Examples of themes and challenges

Participating companies will submit topics of their choice designed to meet the needs of the agricultural sector. The solution to be developed can satisfy a need internal to the company, but also meet the expectations of farmers or its customers. The themes will therefore be very broad: 

  • Precision breeding - Intelligent herd monitoring and animal welfare
  • Health - Early detection of disease and risk management
  • Administrative simplification - Lightening farm management and traceability
  • Decision support - Developing AI-based advice tools
  • Financing & subsidies - Automatically identify available subsidies
  • Valorisation of products - Improving commercialisation and transparency
  • Environment - Reduce carbon footprint and optimise resources

Discover some of the solutions developed during previous Hackathons organised by AGREEN DEFI: 
PEARL

An intuitive application that helps farmers to carry out a pre-diagnosis based on the symptoms observed and to receive appropriate recommendations to compensate the lack of vets.
Performance prediction for Limousin bulls 

A website on which the breeder enters the ID of an animal and retrieves all the information concerning it. This AI solution predicts the weight of calves at adulthood, the quality of the bull and its selling price. The algorithm can also predict descendants based on parents.
ROBOTDETECT

A technical and economic simulator of the use of a robot for epidemio-surveillance in agriculture. The 3-step process involves: collecting current surveillance protocols, comparing the use of a robot with manual operation, and exploring ways of financing a robot.
