Our capabilities
New Variety Dev (PBRs)
NAQED invests in developing unique plant varieties protected by Plant Breeder Rights (PBRs). Our dedicated team creates plants with superior bioactive profiles, setting new industry benchmarks. Through our expertise, each variety is ensured to be potent, sustainable, and adaptable to diverse growing conditions.
Agronomy and Growing
NAQED’s advanced agronomic practices are reshaping the future of sustainable agriculture. We employ cutting-edge techniques to maximise bioactive yield, enhance soil health, promote biodiversity, and reduce environmental impact. Our circular system approach ensures that every aspect of our growing process contributes to a healthier planet and more nutritious plants.
Tissue Culture (TC)
To meet the increasing demand for our products, NAQED employs advanced tissue culture techniques. This innovative approach enables rapid scaling of our unique plant varieties while maintaining the highest quality standards. Beyond scalability, TC ensures disease free plants, genetic consistency, clean material, and a year-round supply of high-quality, bioactive-rich plants.
Proprietary Processing
NAQED’s proprietary processing techniques are another cornerstone of our success. Our state-of-the-art methods preserve and enhance the bioactive compounds in our plants, resulting in products with unmatched potency and purity. Designed to maximise yield while maintaining the integrity of delicate plant compounds, our processes ensure you receive the full spectrum of nature’s benefits in every product.
