Meet Our Leaders
Jerry Duff
Founder & President
“I am passionate and committed to use the depth of my expertise and breadth of connections to help clients develop and commercialize revolutionary technologies for the betterment of agriculture production.”
Mary Jane Duff
Chief Strategy & Marketing Officer
“I grew up on a grain and livestock farm in central Missouri, and long before I ever set foot in a boardroom, I was working in my family’s livestock auction business. That upbringing shaped how I see agriculture to this day. Not just an industry, but as a network of real people making real decisions about their land, their livestock and their livelihoods. That’s the perspective I’ve carried throughout my career, and it’s still the lens I use every day as Chief Strategy & Marketing Officer for AgriThority®.”
Gloverson Moro, Ph.D.
Chief Technology Officer
“What I enjoy most about my job is that it puts me in a unique position to look at the budding technologies in the industry. It’s like climbing a mountain. You get to the top where you see the pinnacle of another mountain that you couldn’t see before. It gives you another goal to pursue.”
