For many commercial #feedmills and #grainhandling operations, monitoring inventory levels has meant climbing bins, counting rings, dropping weighted lines, or just giving it your best eyeball estimate. 👀 But none of those efforts result in half-way decent data. That all changes with ProSense HD - our newly-launched, #AI-powered inventory monitoring platform for large-scale #bins and #silos. Take three minutes and see how pinpoint accurate data from ProSense HD can help you lower costs, improve employee safety and maximize efficiency at your mill or grain handling facility: https://lnkd.in/d73EypgY #agtech #aginnovation #ProSenseHD #productlaunch #newtechnology #feedindustry #feedmanagement #grainhandlers #precisiondata #farmsafety #aiprocessing #binmonitoring #inventorymonitoring #inventorymanagement #feedmills

Just how quickly is #AI advancing and being adopted? Well, to get a good sense, all you need to do is look at the massive sales of chips. Not the snackfood, mind you...but the chips being used to build massive data centers that can do more computations than ever before. In this episode of ✔️Feed Strategy Chat, Jackie Roembke talks new developments in the AI and #feedindustry space with BinSentry CEO Ben Allen. Want to hear even more on this subject? Then, don't miss Ben's talk, "Harnessing AI to lower the operation costs of feed production" at the Feed Mill of the Future Conference on January 28! Watch the video below and see how to add Feed Mill of the Future to your #IPPE registration. #agtech #aginnovation #feedmanagement #precisiondata #swine #poultry #IPPE25 #FeedMilloftheFuture #feedmill

#AI is what you make of it, says BinSentry CEO Ben Allen. The big question is: Will the #animalfeed industry decide to pick it up and use it in a big way? 🤔 According to Ben - leading companies will use #AI to run their animal feed supply chains...by having it create feed orders, set mill production schedules, order ingredients - and more. Oh, and it'll happen far sooner than you think!

Awesome work on the Q&A with Nathan, Mayuri Punithan! You've beautifully captured how it's possible for people to dream big, become an entrepreneur and bring their ideas to fruition. Also - a massive shout-out to the ultra-talented #UWaterloo computer science community!
Technical Communications Specialist @ University of Waterloo David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science
I connected with #UWaterlooAlum Nathan Hoel, the co-founder and Chief Technology Officer of BinSentry: where AI and agriculture meet. His team creates computer vision sensors to determine a feed bin’s inventory, saving farmers’ lives, money and time. Nathan's journey to entrepreneurship was rather unconventional— he didn’t grow up on a farm but came across this idea when a friend showed him a unique work problem. Also, when we picture an entrepreneur, we think of someone fresh out of college, brainstorming ideas in their friend’s apartment. But this mindset also scares us into thinking we should only start young. Nathan reminds us that “you can still work a 9-to-5 job, start a family, and not give up on your idea”. Check out our interview where we discuss entrepreneurship, #AI, and KW’s growing tech industry. Read more: https://lnkd.in/eJa9JdF8 #UWaterloo

Word is continuing to get out there! Our friends at Milling and Grain are the latest to report on the findings of our study with leading #pork producers HANOR. This completely shakes up the way we as an industry once thought about out-of-feed events and their impact on feed conversion ratios. Check out the full article below! 👓 #agtech #aginnovation #animalfeed #FCR #feedindustry #swine #feedmanagement #slidemanagement #animalagriculture
New research by BinSentry in collaboration with pork industry leader Hanor has found the vast majority of animal feed outages are caused by bin slide management errors - not running out of feed on site - a previously invisible problem that increased feed conversion ratios by as much as seven basis points, eroding producer profitability. https://lnkd.in/eCvmsayZ
