      I worked on a prototype for a light therapy mask for horses. It’s not quite farming but animal husbandry. The light would help stop a hormone being produced and this would allow the horses to get pregnant quicker. This mask mimic the light that a horse would naturally see in certain months, but the mask would allow for a constant illumination of it.

      Yes, lots of things. Spikes for bale pick-ups, sensors for cows in heat, automatic scraping systems, apps for field mapping, spraying and route selection and a few others I cant think of right now.
