LAS VEGAS, Aug. 08, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NetworkWire – OrgHarvest, Inc. (OTC: ORGH) (“OrgHarvest” or the “Company,”) is pleased to announce a license agreement has been entered into by and between OrgHarvest Inc. ("Licensee") and Keith DeSanto of Rhamnolipid, Inc. (“Licensor”), which is located at 401 E. Jackson, Suite 2340, Tampa, FL 33602.
Licensor has invented and filed numerous pest and disease control agricultural application patents for rhamnolipid products in the cannabis and hemp industries. Hemp and cannabis rhamnolipid applications include specific blends, peptides, rhamnolipid liposomes, injection technology and pest repellants.
“The cannabis and hemp industries have been plagued by various diseases, pests and fungi in the cultivation process. We are excited to announce that Mr. DeSanto will be joining the OrgHarvest team as our vice president of technology, bringing with him this game-changing rhamnolipid technology. This will mean fewer crop failures and preventable losses to our bottom line,” said Frank Celecia, CEO of OrgHarvest.
OrgHarvest seeks to launch cannabis cultivation and production operations in Las Vegas, Nevada, employing a high-tech, 100,000-square-foot glass greenhouse imported from the Netherlands that has the capacity to produce 450 pounds of cannabis flower per week, enabling the Company to potentially quadruple revenues after its second year of operation.
Carlos Calixto, COO of OrgHarvest, was very pleased to see the test results of these patent-pending rhamnolipid applications. The Company is focused on acquisition of and/or joint venturing with cannabis dispensaries as well as the production and distribution of cannabis flower with high THC values and oils used in manufacturing edibles, beverages and pharmaceuticals. The Company expects to find a tremendous market in the sale of rhamnolipids to the hemp industry.
OrgHarvest’s competitive advantages include risk diversification through the approach of growing cannabis using a high-tech custom Dutch glasshouse manufactured in the Netherlands, which offers a unique combination of advantages unmatched by OrgHarvest’s competitors. Compared to other cannabis operations, the Company differentiates itself by offering a facility that can provide higher-quality and pest-free flowers and a stronger focus on developing strains and new products using exclusive patented technology.
