Winning second place at the Grassroots Awards, the drone pairs with a mobile app to analyze flocks and recommend treatments, saving birds and ensuring food security. Born from a hackathon, the project faced hurdles like tech glitches and funding, but persistence paid off. Now, Jeje’s team aims to scale across South Africa and adapt the tech for cattle, pigs, goats, and fish farms—proving how local innovation can transform food production.
