Tephracor Announces Extensive Global Research Initiatives for Sustainable Agriculture
How TephraMax® improves crop yields and permanently sequesters CO2.
Tephracor is proud to announce our ongoing spring 2024 research initiatives focused on enhancing sustainable agriculture through innovative soil amendment practices. Our extensive trials span across diverse regions and crop types, underscoring our commitment to improving soil health and agricultural productivity globally.
We are currently conducting large-scale and plot-scale trials on grain and vegetable crops in the Pacific Northwest, Southeast, and Upper Midwest of the United States. These trials aim to evaluate the effectiveness of our TephraMax® soil amendment in enhancing crop yields and improving soil conditions in these agriculturally significant regions.
In addition to grain and vegetable trials, we are engaged with nut tree groves in Oregon and California. These trials are designed to assess the impact of our basalt-based soil amendment on the health and productivity of nut trees, with a focus on long-term soil sustainability and crop quality.

Tephracor is also collaborating with land grant universities in the Southeast United States to conduct trials on grains and grasslands. These partnerships allow us to leverage the expertise and resources of leading agricultural institutions to rigorously test and validate the benefits of our innovative soil amendment products.
Our international research efforts extend to a research farm in Ghana, where we are exploring the potential of TephraMax® to improve soil fertility and crop yields in tropical agricultural settings. This trial is part of our broader strategy to support sustainable farming practices in different climate zones and soil types around the world.
Tephracor’s research initiatives are a testament to our dedication to sustainable agriculture. By rigorously testing our products in various settings, we aim to provide farmers with reliable and effective solutions for improving soil health and agricultural productivity.
