Murray Meds Medicinal Cannabis

A leading Australian Medicinal Cannabis producer fully licensed to supply
affordable high-quality medicinal cannabis to the Australian and export markets.

Australian Medicinal Cannabis producer

In March 2021 Murray Meds was acquired by ECS Botanics, another large and successful fully licensed medicinal cannabis cultivator. Murray Meds is a fully licensed Australian medicinal cannabis producer, our licenses include research, cultivation and manufacturing. By cultivating and manufacturing to highest pharmaceutical quality standards that exist for medicinal cannabis, and by focusing on the lowest possible cost, Murray Meds is a leading provider of high quality affordable medicinal cannabis.

We utilise progressive and innovative cultivation methodologies to reduce the cultivation costs of medicinal cannabis by adopting regenerative and organic agricultural practices. We do this in an environmentally sustainable way. Striving for zero waste, by using solar power to be a net producer of electricity and by following regenerative agriculture practices reducing expensive chemical inputs, we rebuild nature’s natural solar, mineral and water cycles and returning nutrient integrity back into the medicinal cannabis.

Our operations are licensed by the Australian Office of Drug Control and compliant with the strict Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs of 1961. This Convention is an international treaty to prohibit production and supply of specific (nominally narcotic) drugs and of drugs with similar effects except under licence for specific purposes, such as medical treatment and research. We also comply with the strict Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) regulations issued by regulators such as the Australian Therapeutic Goods (TGA) and the European authorities.

Our team is actively seeking to collaborate with others in this emerging industry by determining the advantages and challenges of growing medicinal cannabis in an outdoor environment, contact us for a confidential chat.

The team from Colorado State University in Fort Collins looked at how much electricity and natural gas are needed in various states to grow cannabis in an artificial indoor climate. The researchers then calculated the greenhouse-gas emissions associated with this energy consumption.
The team from found that the energy required to yield one kilogram of dried cannabis flower produces the equivalent of 2–5 tonnes of carbon dioxide. Moving weed production from indoor facilities to greenhouses and the great outdoors would help to shrink the carbon footprint!

Abundant sunshine and water on the
banks of the majestic Murray River

Murray Meds medicinal cannabis is grown organically on the banks of Australia’s largest river – the mighty Murray.

Our secure location provides abundant access to natural resources which reduces our need for chemicals and power and lets us keep a low carbon footprint.

Our cannabis cultivation practices strive for a dynamic, holistic and sustainable approach, focussing on regenerative agriculture and organic farming practices. This including conservation tillage, permaculture, cover crops, crop rotation, composting and pasture cropping, all to increase our soil productivity and especially, the soil.

A key to regenerative agriculture is that it not only “does no harm” to the land and soil but actually improves it.

What makes us different?

Access to natural resources

Abundant access to the four essential inputs for cannabis cultivation:
• warm, sunny weather
• low humidity
• well drained, healthy soil
• fresh water from the Murray River.

Organic cultivation

Producing the highest quality medicinal cannabis is our primary objective. To achieve this we opted for an organic approach and use biological fertilisers derived largely from animal and plant wastes and beneficial organisms to control pests and diseases.

Regenerative agriculture

We embrace technologies that regenerate and revitalise the soil and the environment such as conservation tillage, cover crops, and composting. Our focus is to increase productivity while simultaneously improving our soil.

Designed for success

To achieve our goal of providing affordable medicinal cannabis we selected a high quality outdoor grow vs other more expensive cultivation models which require a significant ongoing investment in infrastructure and energy.

Data driven farming

We apply data analytics to our medicinal cannabis crop cycles to determine best practices for precision farming and to identify opportunities for improvement. We also make data driven decisions to determine strain selection and genetics

Quality mindset

Our company works directly with Australian experts in Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), Good Agricultural and Collection Practice (GACP), and ODC regulations to ensure we are consistently meeting quality and compliance requirements.

Why Cultivate Medicinal Cannabis?

We are excited by our success so far in cultivating medicinal cannabis as regeneratively as possible, under the free Australian sun, as nature intended.
