uTerra Middle East Agro Industries has opened its state-of-the-art organic soil fertilizer production facility in Al Ghail Industrial Zone, Ras Al Khaimah.
This significant milestone marks the beginning of operations for the region’s first facility dedicated to sustainable agricultural products, following a strategic investment of $20 million.
Uterra Founder, Dr. Anatoli Unitsky said that, “By restoring the earth’s degraded soil – exhausted from chemical fertilizers – we are making a profound impact. The uTerra product demonstrates to agricultural enterprises that it is possible to cultivate eco-friendly products that are not harmful to health. And we have such examples. The production of uTerra organic fertilizer and crumbly biohumus started in Belarus in 2023.”
“We are truly inspired by what uTerra has brought to life—not just for the region, but for the world. The facility introduces an exceptional model in the fields of sustainability and bio-agriculture and stands as a strong example of how purposeful innovation can drive meaningful progress. uTerra’s contribution is set to play an important role in advancing the UAE’s agricultural ecosystem and national sustainability agenda. As part of Ras Al Khaimah’s growing community of future-focused businesses, uTerra strengthens the emirate’s position as a hub for sustainable innovation. RAKEZ and the Government of Ras Al Khaimah remain committed to supporting the company’s continued success and growth from our platform.”
At the new 33,000 m2 facility, uTerra is employing advanced organic production processes and utilizing cutting-edge technology for indoor and outdoor farming, including vertical farming techniques to enhance the production of fruits, vegetables, and berries.
According to the statement, this ensures the year-round availability of fresh produce. Additionally, the site focuses on manufacturing high-quality fertilizers that are free from harmful chemicals and GMOs, alongside developing unique cultivation methods for plants and medicinal fungi, aimed at maximizing yield and sustainability.
The company’s efforts contribute significantly to the region’s socio-economic development, aligning with Ras Al Khaimah’s vision to become a regional leader in sustainable practices.
