Can smarter water management reshape the future of African fish farming? And what happens when farmers finally get the data they need to scale?

In this episode of AgriTech Founders Diary, we sit down with Deborah Falope, co-founder and COO of Aquatrack, a fast-growing biotech and agri-tech startup helping fish farmers optimize water quality, improve yield, access finance, and run more efficient farms using AI and IoT. As both a farmer and a tech founder, Deborah brings a rare, grounded perspective on what is actually broken in aquaculture—and what it takes to fix it.

In this episode you’ll learn:

• Why water quality is one of aquaculture’s biggest threats

• How Aquatrack’s AI-powered operating system helps farmers track inventory, mortality, finance, and production

• Why adoption is still the hardest challenge in agri-tech

• The real reason farmers resist new tools (and how to design products they will use)

• How data, financing, and community support drive sustainable fish farming

• What it takes to scale agri-tech solutions across Africa

If you care about agri-tech, aquaculture, or the future of water-smart farming in Africa, this episode is for you.
