WHO WE ARE
Change Ag is a vertically integrated sustainable industrial hemp business that combines world-class genetics with leading agronomic techniques and infrastructure to provide full-service industrial hemp products to multiple global end markets.
Bringing scale to an important sustainability sector, our vision is committed to a low net-zero future. We aim to become the leading sustainable low-cost producer of hemp products that utilize the whole plant. Harnessing hemp’s potential, we can contribute to multiple greenhouse gas emissions, waste, and pollution issues. With a profitable business model, we are driving measurable solutions to climate change.
CURRENT OPERATIONS in Manitoba
With our Centres of Excellence for Agronomy and Genetics in Manitoba, we are uniquely positioned to supply our vertically integrated farming model anywhere in North America.
We have completed an 8,000 sq. ft. GMP compliance-ready, state-of-the-art hemp biomass processing facility in Newton, Manitoba, Canada which can be scaled with our modular approach to hemp processing. We have a commitment to continuous improvement and innovation and have numerous process patents pending around whole hemp biomass harvesting and processing, integrated decortication line, hemp protein isolation, and trichome water-based concentration. Economical industrial-scale whole-plant hemp processing and supply of a wide variety of industrial products are now possible.
