Innovaterra is a Uruguayan company dedicated to the research, production and industrialization of medicinal hemp. We are associated with the Chamber of Companies of Medical Cannabis of Uruguay, the Commercial and Industrial Center of Salto and the Chamber of Industries of Uruguay. We have licenses for Research and Development, Production and Extraction by the Institute of Regulation and Control of Cannabis (IRCCA). Our main objective is the production of resin, especially the CBD - the main component of the plant, non-psychoactive, with multiple applications and positive impacts on the quality of human and animal life - destined for the world market of nutraceutical and medicinal. In our facilities in Salto, Uruguay, we have a complete laboratory for extraction, purification and distillation, so we can process our product faster and in higher volumes than most CBD suppliers. Likewise, at Innovaterra we focus on the research and development of varieties with a high content of CBD and low THC (less than 0.5%)

Uruguay has competitive advantages in the region, given that it is positioned as a pioneer within Latin America by opportunely enabling cultivation with clear procedures for this type of agro-industrial development.
Likewise, it has an attractive and timely legal framework for companies that want to insure or increase their counter-season production or innovative companies that wish to start in business. The versatility of hemp provides commercial and productive opportunities and technology development.
Additionally, Uruguay offers the following differential qualities as a destination country for hemp ventures:
The company is committed to the research and development of varieties, agricultural systems, products and processes. 2018 was the year we registered our first variety: Interra 1801, which has 17% CBD and 0.5% THC. We continue working and researching with our exclusive hemp genetics for the development of plants with a high content of CBG, CBN and CBC, non-psychoactive cannabis compounds. All the varieties we develop are not genetically modified.
Our hemp is grown in strict compliance with the Cannabis Law of Uruguay # 19,172, using certified OECD seed and agricultural protocols worldwide, and fully respecting the Good Agricultural Practices and Drug Collection of the World Organization of Health (WHO-GACP). We are also working on GMP (Good Management Practices) certifications. For the 2019-2020 campaign we have projected the production of 200 hectares with Interra 1801. Innovaterra bets on the development of efficient producers of this new crop through the associated producers program, which consists of a selection of producers in different areas of the country to introduce them to hemp production under the Innovaterra license.
Once the field delivers the biomass to the plant, it is classified, dried and prepared for the extraction process. We have a drying capacity of thirty tons per day. The extraction of phytocannabinoids is carried out in an extraction line designed and built in Uruguay with a capacity of 1,500 kilos of dry matter per day, working as a solvent with ethanol. The distillation process for solvent recovery is performed under vacuum, which gives optimum purity to the resins. From them, through the processes of winterization, decarboxylated and fractionated, we obtain high quality basic products for our customers.
Innovaterra is dedicated to the wholesale market, specifically to the nutraceutical and pharmaceutical industries around the world.
Our focus is on the production of full spectrum, from the extraction of "Phenolic Oleo-Resin" with an average concentration of 39% CBD and 0% THC. We offer extracts that range from 14% to 99% pure CBD isolated.
