Terramera is a Bio/Ag Tech company developing high-performance sustainable alternatives to conventional**chemical pesticides and fertilizers. Terramera aims to create healthy, safe environments and crops free of toxic**chemicals, and to make sustainable and organic farming cheaper, more productive and abundant.**The neem plant has been used for centuries in Asia for human and plant health purposes. One component,**azadirachtin, has been well studied and registered internationally (but not in Canada yet) as a natural**insecticide, fungicide, and nematicide. Terramera has developed novel methods to formulate neem oil to**various components to be used for pest management and crop enhancement.**Individual formulations based on neem oil will be applied to grapevines at several growth stages. During the**growth season, the grapes will be analyzed for determining the impact of the treatments on grape quality.**Compositional characteristics of the grapes such as concentration of sugars, organic acids, anthocyanins,**tannins, and aromatics will be tested.**The final goal of this project is to further understand the effects of neem oil on grape composition and to**develop products which would enhance the quality of grapes, promote early ripening and, thus, enhance the**quality of the wine.

Terramera是一家生物/农业技术公司，致力于开发传统 ** 化学农药和化肥的高性能可持续替代品。Terramera的目标是创造健康、安全的环境和不含有毒化学物质的作物，并使可持续的有机农业更便宜、更高产、更丰富。印楝植物在亚洲已经被用于人类和植物健康的目的几个世纪。其中一种成分印楝素作为一种天然杀虫剂、杀真菌剂和杀线虫剂在国际上（但尚未在加拿大）得到充分研究和注册。Terramera开发了新的方法，将印楝油配制成 ** 各种成分，用于害虫管理和作物改良。**基于印楝油的单独配方将在几个生长阶段应用于葡萄树。在 ** 生长季节，将对葡萄进行分析，以确定处理对葡萄质量的影响。**葡萄的成分特征，如糖的浓度，有机酸，花青素，** 单宁和芳香剂将被测试。该项目的最终目标是进一步了解印楝油对葡萄成分的影响，并开发产品，提高葡萄的质量，促进早熟，从而提高葡萄酒的质量。
