3 About us Agritema has been distributing unique seed treatment products since 2005; Among first high-tech products introduced by Agritema to Ukrainian seeds producers and farmers were Sepiret seed polymers and drying powders and soybean inoculants HiCoat Super, HiStick by "Becker Underwood (USA); Today Agritema is an exclusive dealer of a global leader in microbial plant care products Lallemand Plant Care; Agritema is an official representative of Sevita Genetics a Canadian non GMO soybean producer; Exclusive dealer of SATEC GmbH., a German manufacturer of lab seed treaters and factory stationary equipment; Exclusive dealer of Graham Seeds Treating Systems a Canadian manufacturer of mobile seed treating equipment for farmers. OUR MISSION we bring global innovations and create customized bio solutions to help small farmers and big producers grow their crops ecologically and profitably. OUR VISION AGRITEMA - biggest focused supplier of breakthrough bio innovations for ecological and efficient growing of your crops.

4 Our advantages Own brands of inoculants AgriBacter, BioBacter, RhizoFix ; Unique expertise on the market since 2005 in: Market analytics; Products registration and efficiency trials; Technical support of our customers; Marketing and branding of our partners products; Market share of our polymers 60 %, inoculants 15 %

6 BIOLOGICAL NITROGEN FIXATION (BNF) - SOYBEANS These products enable the Biological Nitrogen Fixation process Very high amounts of Nitrogen fixed; AGRIBACTER and RHIZOFIX can supply a great portion of the plant s requirements; Specific elite strains of Bradyrhizobium elkanii: SEMIA SEMIA 5019 Bradyrhizobium elkanii and Bradyrhizobium japonicum are the most common species used in the soybeans inoculant s industry; SEMIA SEMIA 5019: have shown excellent results in nodulation and grain yield for many years in a wide range of environmental and soil conditions

7 Carrier: Canadian sterile peat (free of contaminants). Titre: more than 4 x 10⁹ Bradyrhizobia / gram 2 possible application methods: - Direct application (as a powder) in the planter box or planter hopper (contains adhesive polymer) - As a slurry, in mixture with water (using seed treating machines) Very good protection of the bacteria in high temperatures or relatively dry soil conditions

8 Premium Pre-inoculant Carrier: liquid formulation, enriched with nutrients and bacteria enhancers (free of contaminants); Very high titre: 1 x 10¹⁰ Bradyrhizobia/ml; Co-packed with Bioprotector extender; 2 possible application methods: On seed application: using seed treating or coating machines In furrow application; Excellent on seed survival; Very rapid, early nodulation.

9 Bioprotector Enhances the performance of the inoculants; Needs to be premixed with the inoculants before seed treating; 3 main objectives with the Bioprotector: Adhere the inoculant s rhizobia to the seeds; Nourish rhizobia during the period between inoculation and root infection; Protect rhizobia from desiccation; one of the most important factors which explain bacteria death is desiccation; Increases the on seed survival (OSS) of rhizobia.

11 SOME NEW RESEARCH LINES Importance of SULPHUR availability; growth promotion Collaboration with Un. Saskatchewan Prof. Darren Korber and Prof. John Lawrence: Delftia sulfur activity Imaging Delftia on roots in situ. Collaboration with Un. of Regina Prof. Chris Yost: on Delftia genomics analyzing the transcriptome in situ to evaluate sulfur gene and other genes expressed. better understand mode of action, and product enhancements.

12 Specific Sinorhizobium meliloti strain U-143 Peat based product Very high bacteria concentration / g Strain selected for its ability in terms of: Infection capacity (early nodulation) Competitiveness against other strains Efficiency in Nitrogen fixation. Persistence in soil (required for nodulation of seedlings germinating from older established plants)
