1 Proven technology to improve soybean yield and consistency

2 Fortalis + fungicide Improved soybean yields Fortalis crop enhancement foliar spray offers highly consistent potential to increase soybean yield. When applied with a foliar fungicide, Fortalis increases soybean yield by an average of 4.8 bushels/acre *, with 86% of test results showing increased yield. It s an ideal choice for progressive soybean growers looking for innovative ways to boost yields and improve profitability. *Average result over 147 small and large plot trials Innovative, proven and consistent Feature Benefit Reason to believe Contains 2nd generation CaT technology One of the most thoroughly tested crop enhancement products (200+ U.S. trials ) (1500+ Brazil trials ) Convenient and compatible formulation Increases mobility and distribution of calcium in the soybean plant Proven performance of consistent yield increase Optimized, easy to use formulation with 14 oz/acre use rate Improves pod retention and development for more yield Increased consistency of yield response average of 4.8 bushels per acre (average yield increase vs. untreated when applied with foliar fungicides) Easy to mix and convenient to apply, compatible with foliar fungicides at R1 to R3 growth stage

3 How Fortalis works Fortalis improves yield by increasing seed size and pod number. The CaT technology in Fortalis contains a special combination of thoroughly researched, tested and regulated chemicals, which include a synthetic molecule. These chemicals increase yield by improving the mobility of calcium throughout the plant to support flowering and enhance pod development. Application guidelines Spray 14 oz/acre of Fortalis with your preferred soybean foliar fungicide from R1 to R3 growth stage. Fortalis is tank mix compatible with leading insecticides and fungicides. It s never been easier to make a positive impact on your yields and help ensure you win at the bin. Apoplastic path Symplastic path Apoplastic path: via intercellular spaces and cell walls Symplastic path: via cytoplasm Fortalis FAQs What is Fortalis? Fortalis is a crop enhancement product. It stimulates natural processes to enhance nutrient translocation and efficiency. What is CaT technology? How does it work? CaT technology is based on a synthetic chemical molecule that optimizes the mobility and distribution of calcium in plant tissue. The technology stimulates selective ion transport channels in membranes, which increases the calcium concentration within cells as part of the signalling process. How does Fortalis act on the soybean plant? What effect does that have? Fortalis includes CaT technology, foliar calcium and zinc. CaT optimizes mobility and distribution of calcium in plant tissue, as part of the plant s natural stress signalling process. This enables the soybean plant to retain more flowers/pods. Can Fortalis be mixed with other products? Fortalis can be applied in tank mixture with other inputs such as fungicides. However, like any product containing calcium in its formulation, one should avoid mixing it with glyphosate and/or glufosinate. Note that not all potential tank mixes including other pesticides and additives have been tested for crop safety. Jar testing of all tank mix partners is recommended. What is the difference between Fortalis and competitor products? Fortalis is a unique formulation containing CaT technology which optimizes the mobility and distribution of calcium in plant tissues. CaT technology has delivered 4.8 bu/a increase with foliar fungicides in the U.S. and ~3 bu/a over fungicides in Brazil.

4 Trial results show improved soybean yield and consistency Field trials conducted in have demonstrated the effectiveness of Fortalis. Comprehensive trial data Consistent yield increase with Fortalis + fungicide across small and large plots in the U.S. (2015 and 2016) Yield uplift (bu/a) Fortalis + fungicide vs. non-treated N=147 Average yield uplift = +4.8 bu/a 86% positive U.S. trial results: Fortalis + fungicide combined vs. non-treated Combined large and small plot data Great benefits for growers Yield: Average increase of 4.8 bushels/acre when used with fungicide, with 86% of test results showing increased yield Convenience: Easy to mix and convenient to apply, compatible with foliar fungicide at R1 to R3 growth stage Consistency/Reliability: Increased yield consistency, rigorously tested in multiyear trials to prove product effectiveness Find more technical information about Fortalis and CaT technology at FortalisYields.com.
