We created Infeedex platform to help farmers safe money on feeding costs and improve livestock health and wellbeing. Katerina Duke originally from Samara, Russia and living in Ireland from 2007, set up Infeedex (by Áine Nutriscience) in 2017, as she saw the need in the market for a tool that will allow farmers become their own livestock nutritionists on a click of a button. Her mother, a retired professor in Animal Nutrition was the initial brain behind the whole idea. Today, we have build a team of AgriTechies who are passionate about animals, nutrition, technology and combination of the three.

What people say about us
Áine NutriScience aims to help farmers with animal nutrition
Start-up’s app will calculate nutritionally balanced feeding programmes for herds
The inspiration for Katerina Duke’s start-up company, Áine NutriScience, came from her mother, Anna, a retired professor of animal nutrition and businesswoman who spent 30 years advising livestock farmers how to feed their animals for optimum health, sustainability and profit.
“Our system makes feeding simple, accessible, interactive, comprehensive, and reflective of an individual farm’s needs, conditions and requirements. It is where animals meet technology.”
