Plandaí Biotechnology, Inc., through its wholly owned subsidiaries, farms over 7500 acres of luscious land in the Mpumalanga province of South Africa.
It farms a whole fruit basket of produce which it uses in its creation of highly bioavailable extracts, ranging from citrus to avocado pears to most notably over 2000 acres of tea.
The tea plant, Camellia Sinensis, is an evergreen shrub or tree and can grow to heights of 30ft though for cultivation is pruned to heights of 2-5ft.
Farming in South Africa is like no other country in the world and because of this we needed to make sure that we stacked the deck in our favour and employed only the best as ever y step of the product creation pathway is critical. With that in mind, our farming team has over 100 years of experience in managing farms in Southern Africa.
