Growing Stevia

250 acre/100 hectare unit

We enter grower contracts with our equity investors to grow specific lines of stevia. We do this after we have assessed the growing microclimate and selected a line that we feel would be appropriate. We charge for this consultation. Once we have selected lines for planting we send in the micro propagation equipment, harvesting and production equipment. We look forward at this time to establishing the whole infrastructure, micro propagation through to retail marketing. On a three -year crop rotation basis, we require 1000 acres. We also supply rotation crop seed and equipment. In certain countries it may be possible to manufacture most if not all the equipment necessary. This not only allows for greater flexibility, but, gives a 30 to 300 fold movement of investment capital through the local economy. Sharing the high technology involved creates new and exciting opportunities for agriculture in your state or country.
