2 Ecofibre Industries Limited Objectives Derive a Clean, Green profit for shareholders To Support Value adding industries in the region of production of raw materials By Creating Products that meet triple bottom line ideals Products for expanding global markets Development opportunities (patents and technology) New Industry with product versatility
3 Ecofibre Industries Limited Corporate History Founded in 1996, identified Aust needed a major breeding program for sub tropical and tropical hemp. First crops grown in 1998, Norfolk Island (territory of Australia) Trial Legislation in Queensland 1999 Queensland Commercial legislation in 2004 EIL has grown over 3,000 ha at latitudes Developed new handling system 2005 Developed new processing system 2006
4 Projected Global Fibre Production Man Made Fibres (million tonnes per year) Cellulose Synthetic Natural Fibres Raw cotton Raw wool Others + Hemp/Flax/Kenaf ?? TOTAL FIBRE PRODUCTION
5 Global Fibre Demand DEMAND Synthetics Cotton Other Now Figures compiled from CSIRO 2000, Kline Report, FAO, Hubbert Curve

10 Sub-Tropical Kenaf Flax & Hemp Kenaf- Summer sub-tropical/tropical Fibre crop, High fibre yield t/ha, Technical & low value fibre uses Flax- Winter sub-tropical. Duel Food & Fibre crop, Low t/ha fibre yield related to food/oil seed production demand Hemp- Summer temperate-tropical & Winter tropical. Duel Food & Fibre crop, Medium/High yields of fibre, relatively low yield seed (1t/ha) Some existing varieties, need further plant improvement
11 Growing Regions & Rainfall Zones Flax Kenaf Hemp Summer Rainfall Zone has an economic growing advantage

22 Australian Hemp Legislation State based legislation with no Federal override on production. Seed and Oil imports and exports need Federal approval No hemp human foods allowed (yet)! Qld allows seed THC to be up to 0.5% and fibre 1.0% Tasmania, WA and Vic all crops 0.3% (inc NSW trials) Uniform legislation, THC limits and sampling & testing protocols being considered.

27 Traditional fibre crop approach
28 Hemp Handling & Processing Need to find ways of reducing all costs to compete with other fibres. Problems in costs of double handling and other inefficiencies Old fashioned approach for the modern evolution of a new product Modern approach that started the processing in the field and addressed transport and energy costs
29 Hemp Harvesting & processing Increase on farm production efficiency through higher yields with lost costs (15%) Reduce handling and transport costs (30%) Increase raw material throughput (20%) Decrease per unit processing cost (20%) Reduce handling costs to market through packaging, storage and transport (10%) Maximise market logistics and production risk through relocatable processing technologies? Overall reduction in cost of fibre by 30%
