Terra Vera was founded to rid the world of toxic chemicals that are damaging our environment and contributing to a public health crisis.
We empower growers to activate targeted blends of amino acids that can be sprayed across the plant lifecycle as a nutrient and preventative, but some products can also be used as a remediation tool for when the unexpected outbreak occurs.
Using biomimicry technology, our systems simulate nature's immune response to stress by creating activated amino acid solutions that efficiently deliver nutrients to roots, stalks, and leaves while creating a difficult environment for pathogens.
In a large-scale study (>500 plants) across multiple cultivars, HLV infected plants foliarly fed with Terra Vera's IV nutrient line yielded a statistically significant improvement in observed plant health, vigor, and biomass compared to standard nutrient protocols. Similar to humans that are sick, plants stressed with an infection can still yield and express it's full plant profile if fed with fertilizers that have increased bioavailability for easier uptake. For a grower, this type of yield increase could mean millions of dollars of preserved crop value and labor.
In partnership with a small research team at the University of the West Indies (UWI), the efficacy of Terra Vera technology was assessed on coffee plants presenting with CLR disease in the Blue Mountain region of Jamaica. The relative change in disease severity was significantly reduced from the coffee plants that were applied with TV technology vs the controls assessed over the nine-week period.
In partnership with a small research team at the University of the West Indies (UWI), the efficacy of Terra Vera technology was assessed on cabbage plants infested with various insects. The average size of holes due to pests were significantly reduced between Terra Vera treated plants versus no-application plants over the eight-week period.
Mites are common pests in gardens that feed on many fruit, trees, vines, berries, vegetables, and ornamental plants. Spider mites are tiny and difficult to detect; however, you may notice plant damage such as white spots (stippling), yellow leaves, or webbing. The efficacy of Terra Vera technology was assessed on plants infested with two-spotted spider mites. After 1 hour, approximately 98% of spider mites were killed. The same efficacy was observed 5 hours post 3:1 TV spray.
Terra Vera has the potential to change the world. Today's agrochemicals are increasingly linked to environmental damage and health concerns. Terra Vera replaces many of these chemistries with natural alternatives that are safer for people and more sustainable for the planet.
We believe growing crops should be sustainable, safe and profitable. Our system uses biomimicry technology to simulate nature's immune response to stress by activating amino acids found naturally in the foods we eat every day.
Within five minutes, aphids, as well as other soft bodied pests, that come into direct contact with Terra Vera solution, are immobilized through cellular licing. The chemistry then degrades into nutrients. Terra Vera chemistry uses a non-toxic, biodegradable solution that protects the plant’s tissue, while remaining safe for humans, plants and other animals.
The cannabis industry is quickly maturing with most markets experiencing a significant price compression and increased competition. Each cultivation operation experiences a variety of challenges. Terra Vera’s goal is to help cultivators increase their productivity, profitability and competitiveness.
Terra Vera's innovative green technology will play a critical role in ensuring global food security, poverty reduction, and environmental sustainability. Green Technology uses science and technology to protect the world’s natural resources and mitigate the negative environmental impact of human activity. Terra Vera is a first of its kind agriculture technology company using an amino acid platform to safely prevent crop loss and improve crop quality.
