EP 204: Taranis, AI in Agriculture, & Funny Dive Sights

How can you identify a tar spot from 90 feet above a field?  With Taranis!  We’ve got three special guests, Luke Schnitker, Brad Roberts, and Cory Edge, joining host Sal Sama in the podcast room for this episode of The High Ground powered by Premier Companies.  Luke is celebrating a recent promotion to Director of Crop Protection and Seed with Premier Companies.  Brad is the Regional Account Manager and Cory is the Customer Success Representative for Taranis, a precision agriculture company focused on helping growers increase efficiency and yield with their crop and farm management software.

On today’s episode, you’ll hear how each guest ended up in their current roles and why Luke isn’t going to rock a mustache.  Brad and Cory will also share how Taranis is able to utilize their drones to scout their fields and why it offers more information to a grower than just seeing the crop from a four wheeler.  You’ll also learn about the history of Taranis, how they hire their drone pilots, and get a glimpse into where AI could be utilized more in the agriculture industry.  “Scouting for us is being able to see every acre and then being able to understand what’s happening at the leaf level.”
