E141: David updates listeners on the Southern Ecosystem and follows with an interview with Gina Sloan, Founder and CEO of AGRITX. ConvergeSouth attendees voted AGRITX the top startup at the event. AGRITX is all about the Chicken and Egg problem in terms of industrial hatcheries. Newly laid eggs are typically contaminated with microbial pathogens such as Salmonella and E. Coli that are transmitted to the chick, resulting in a cycle of pathogenesis in the production cycle from birth. The current standard to limit transmission is probiotic feed additives for laying hens but is only modestly effective. AGRITX has developed a proprietary patented egg coating that targets the 18 day embryonic development period to introduce probiotics through the egg shell during gestation and prior to hatch to yield a healthier chick. After multiple successful customer trials they are going to market in 2025, their first revenue year. (recorded 10/18/24)
