TerViva Revenue and Competitors

We built TerVivaￃﾢ￢ﾀﾞￂﾢ to solve the imbalanced equation of a shrinking arable land base and a rising demand for food, fuel and fertilizer. Our solution is to help growers convert distressed agricultural land into productive acreage by growing a tree-based oilseed crop called Pongamia. Our technology is based on proprietary advancements in agronomy and the genetics of pongamia, a leguminous tree species that produces 8x higher oil yield per acre than soybeans on underused agricultural lands stressed from disease and changing environmental conditions. TerVivaￃﾢ￢ﾀﾞￂﾢ is currently working with leading agriculture and land management companies in Florida and Hawaii to establish pilot projects and commercial size acreage ￃﾢ￢ﾂﾬ￢ﾀﾜ two geographies where the need for a new crop and the proper climate for pongamia intersect. Native to India and Australia, pongamia is a long-living tree that produces an annual harvest of seeds that are similar to soybeans. On a per-acre basis, pongamia produces eight times the amount of oil than a soybean with a fraction of the inputs (water, fertilizer, pesticides, etc.) and is thus cheaper to maintain while being much more sustainable and environmentally friendly. We use pongamia to ￃﾢ￢ﾂﾬￅﾓgrow oilￃﾢ￢ﾂﾬￂﾝ, combining agriculture with chemistry to produce clean fuels and green chemicals -- while at the same time restoring underproductive land and creating jobs in rural communities. Pongamia oil contains long-chain fatty acids that are well-suited for conversion into biodiesel, renewable diesel, high-performance surfactants, and lubricants. Once removed of oil, the residual pongamia seed cake is high in both nitrogen and protein, and has proven value as a fertilizer and animal feed supplement. TerVivaￃﾢ￢ﾀﾞￂﾢ has compiled an exclusive library of high-yielding, patentable pongamia genetics from around the world and has developed propagation techniques for scalable, consistent results.
