“Kava Stems”
Kava Stems
Kava stems refer to the woody, aerial stalks of the Piper methysticum plant extending upward from the base and supporting the foliage. Physical Characteristics Appearance: Long, fibrous, jointed stalks featuring characteristic nodes where leaves and branches emerge. They have a woody exterior bark and a lighter, fibrous inner core. Texture: Rigid, tough, and highly woody, making them significantly harder and coarser than the underground roots and basal stumps. Biochemical & Commercial Profile Kavalactone Content: Stems contain a much lower concentration of active kavalactones compared to the roots and basal stumps. Industrial & Bulk Application: Because of their lower potency and fibrous nature, stems are typically separated from premium root and chip exports. They are utilized primarily for specific, lower-cost industrial extraction processes, specialized fiber applications, or bulk agricultural formulations where high kavalactone potency is not required.
