Developing an Argentine agro-technological model for the production of pharmaceutical grade cannabis
INTA and Pampa Hemp inaugurate the first public-private agreement for the research and production of medicinal cannabis in Argentina at the Experimental Station of Pergamino, Province of Buenos Aires
Authorized by the Ministry of Health of the Nation - within the framework of Law 27350 and in a technological association agreement with INTA Pergamino, our company became the first private enterprise in Argentina to start a cannabis cultivation with productive purposes and scientific and medical research.
We seek to contribute to the production of pharmaceutical grade raw material that accrues in medical and therapeutic applications, facilitating the supply of local demand for the production of national quality, accessible products with proven safety, taking care of consumers, patients and users.
Our focus is on the pursue of R&D and production activities: cannabis cultivation techniques with different genetic varieties adapted to the conditions of our geography and climate, the design of production protocols supported by the integration of local technologies of traceability, applied artificial intelligence, automation, nutrition, processing, sensorization and monitoring of crops that are subsequently scalable at the agronomic level, complying with the highest quality standards required by the industry worldwide.
We are Green Innovation; environmentally friendly and socially responsible products and solutions to facilitate sustainable development.
INTA Pergamino Agricultural Experimental Station
Currently the Experimental Station has 748 hectares, where are its various facilities (buildings, laboratories, greenhouses, etc.) and 15 Rural Development Agencies. In its experimental field, trials and experiences are carried out in accordance with the regional and strategic projects underway, producing technical information for the entire Pampas area and in some areas for other areas of the country.
More than 130 professionals from different specialties carry out their research, experimentation and rural development activities based on sustainability, equity and agri-food competitiveness.

Testimonials about our project and the horizon of the cannabis industry in Argentina
This agreement is a great challenge and an enormous opportunity for the Pergamino Experimental Station, both for the institution and for the professionals who will participate in the project. The main objective is to start a process of generating knowledge of high scientific-technological value, fundamental for the development of the industry related to the production of cannabis derivatives in Argentina. From the association with Pampa Hemp, we will have the opportunity to be part of the local development, research and cultivation of cannabis, generating transferable technology that empowers the industry through public-private integration. For INTA, it is an unprecedented experience, and we are committed to strengthening the ties between the public and private sectors as a strategy to stimulate the innovation that our country needs to enhance its insertion in global agro-industrial markets.
