Guar Resources LLC (GR) has made a significant investment and commitment to be a leading producer and supplier of guar gum powder within the U.S.

We contract local farmers to grow and harvest our seeds; we in turn use the guar beans grown on U.S. soil to produce guar gum powder.

Guar gum comes from the endosperm of the seed of the legume plant named Cyamopsis tetragonoloba; an annual plant, grown in dry regions.

The guar bean is a native to India as it thrives in the desert. For this reason, the minimal water demands of the bean has given it a great future in the dry Southern Plains of America.

Being a legume, it releases nitrogen into the soil making it more fertile giving it a great place in a crop rotation.

Superior USDA Guar Plants

Guar paltry water demands has been a motivating factor for the agribusiness to pursue in West Texas.

Guar is a rain-fed crop, sown in May-July and harvested in October-December.

Guar Resources And Our New Beginning

In December 2014, GR acquired West Texas Guar out of bankruptcy proceedings.

We began restructuring to build a brand-new technologically advanced processing plant.

Reestablishing solid trusted relationships with our contracted farmers was key to us. Arie Genger, CEO/Chairman of GR noted, “Our farmers needed to be reassured that they can trust the current ownership and management and that we have a different vision for the company”.

GR embraces a grower partnership mindset and through the success of our growers, we too are successful.

We assist our growers in maximizing guar production per acre in Texas, Oklahoma, and New Mexico.

Farmer In A Guar Field

In September 2016, GR completed a state of the art centrally controlled new facility where bean splitting and powder production is now performed.

GR is the only USA-based producer of guar powder made from beans farmed on U.S. soil.

These beans are processed into various intermediate products and powder.

At GR we maintain a reserve seed base licensed to local growers.

Its rotation in the planting cycle can replenish and improve the soil due to its nitrogen-enhancing properties. GR processing facilities operates 24/7.

The north side of the new Brownfield plant contains splitting operations; the south side converts splits to powder.
