Since the launch of the Pearse Lyons Cultivator, 23 young companies have participated and benefited from the guidance.
When Pearse Lyons, the founder of animal nutrition heavyweight Alltech, died in 2018, he left a legacy that continues to pay dividends: the Pearse Lyons Accelerator Program, which has evolved into the Pearse Lyons Cultivator. Now headed by his son, Mark Lyons, president and CEO of Alltech, the cultivator offers the expertise of Alltech scientists and business executives.
What if a farmer could monitor animal health up to eight times a day using sensors, instead of calling out a vet to take blood tests on their farm every two weeks to get a similar set of data?

A new device, which is claimed to be the first integrated health microchip and activity monitor for livestock, could enable early detection of pre-clinical conditions and disease prediction in real time. This is according to Chordata co-founder and chief executive officer John Wisbey.
