Planting millions of trees to feed billions of people
Terviva is a food and ag innovation company partnering with farmers to grow pongamia, a climate-resilient tree which helps to reforest land and revitalize communities.
After more than a decade of innovation, we’ve created a regenerative food system where we harvest and transform pongamia beans into healthy and delicious food ingredients called Ponova®.
Ponova® oil and protein
Delicious, healthy and sustainable plant-based food ingredients.
We partner with growers to cultivate thousands of acres of pongamia tree plantings in Florida, Hawaii and Australia and wild harvest beans from smallholders in India. Our traceable supply chains turn sustainably grown pongamia beans into nutritious plant-based food ingredients.

The Power Pod
This legume has superpowers: It's drought tolerant, pest resistant, nitrogen fixing, carbon sequestering, soil remediating, high-yielding and rich in protein. It can provide food and fuel, and combat climate change, all with a single pod. And Terviva wants to plant millions of them to feed billions.
Terviva’s strategic pivot: ‘The development cycles of our tech are longer than the economic cycles in which we operate’
The ultimate ‘climate-smart’ crop, nitrogen-fixing Pongamia trees produce significantly more biomass per acre than soybeans with a fraction of the inputs.
