Ervais do Futuro

Ervais do Futuro, located in Espumoso, Rio Grande do Sul, began its journey in 2014 and is the first yerba mate cultivation with drip irrigation in Brazil.

Partnerships with renowned institutions such as Embrapa Florestas, Epagri and UFSM, in addition to the expertise of forestry engineers Natália Aguiar and Mônica Gabira, drive our mission to produce high-quality yerba mate in a sustainable way, combining technical knowledge and research to offer a differentiated product.

A new level in planting quality

At Ervais do Futuro, innovation, sustainability and excellence are present in all stages of the process, from planting the seedlings. Our commitment to quality and best agricultural practices guarantees a high quality product, aligned with market needs and environmental commitment. See how we do it:

High Quality Seedlings:

The yerba mate seedlings used come from matrices selected based on strict technical criteria. We work with genetic materials that offer high productivity and quality leaves.

CEVAD Field System:

We adopted the innovative CEVAD field system on part of our property, which allows the planting of yerba mate in high density. This method optimizes land use, increasing productivity per area without compromising individual plant growth.

Drip Irrigation:

Pioneers in large-scale drip irrigation for yerba mate, we guarantee an adequate supply of water at the right time, essential for the healthy development of plants, especially in periods of drought.

Frequent Harvests:

We carry out frequent harvests to maximize the production of young leaves, ensuring that our final product is of the highest quality, with a high concentration of beneficial compounds such as caffeine, saponins and phenolics.

Industrial Application Potential:

Yerba mate, a species native to the South and part of the Central West of Brazil, is a typically Brazilian plant, with enormous potential in various industrial applications due to its flavor and bioactive compounds in high concentrations. In line with the trend towards increased consumption of natural and local products, we recommend some industrial applications for our products, but the versatility of this plant allows for creative use.

Cosmetics industry:

Ideal for skin and hair care products that use the natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of yerba mate, in addition to the enormous amount of foam produced by the saponins present in the leaves of the species.

Food and Supplements Industry:

Development of food supplements, capsules and nutraceutical products that incorporate the benefits of yerba mate’s bioactive compounds, with a focus on improving mental focus and performance in physical activities, for example.

Drinks industry

Yerba mate is a great source of phenolic compounds (with levels very close to coffee and black tea), in addition to being very stimulating, due to the high levels of caffeine and theobromine. Therefore, this raw material is ideal for the promising market of energy and healthy drinks with a high content of caffeine and antioxidants. Yerba mate is also gaining more and more space in cocktails. Furthermore, it can be used for traditional drinks (chimarrão, tererê and mate tea).
