  1. FBSCIENCES & CARBON BOOST-SINTRODUCTION

  2. FBSciences, Inc. • Global agri-technology company focused on enhancing crop yields and crop quality through better plant health • Long successful history in fertilizer industry since 1991, initially in golf course greens fertilizer segment • Produce a proprietary organic chemistry-based technology that greatly enhances nutrient delivery to plants • Distribute our products primarily to farm wholesalers and distributors • Substantial field work completed and results evaluated or verified by 19 recognized universities and 21 established industry consultants • Successfully evaluated our technology/products with most crop types in growing conditions and climates in the world Who We Are What We Do Why It Works

  3. Next Generation in NutrientUptake and Translocation Technology Carbon Boost-S

  4. What Makes Carbon Boost Work? • Carbon Boost contains highly plant-active compounds from natural organic matter. • We have identified, extracted, isolated and refined (IEIR) this select group of compounds because they consistently enhance plant growth.

  5. Carbon Boost-S Technical Information Physical Properties Application Flexibility Pre-plant (broadcast, banded) Granular impregnation At planting (in-furrow, banded) Side dress Top dress Irrigation (drip, flood, furrow, overhead, broadcast) Seed Treatments (under development) • Cinnamon brown liquid • Slightly sweet peanut oil fragrance • pH: 2.00 to 3.50 • Chemically inert • Non-staining • Weight: 8.5 to 8.7 pounds/gallon

  6. Is Carbon Boost-S a humic or fulvic acid? • Carbon Boost-S is much more scientifically advanced than humic or fulvic acid products. • Everything about its source materials, extraction, and purification is unique. • More important is that end-use rates are 20 times lower per acre, they are much easier to store, mix and handle, and the performance is vastly superior.

  7. Carbon Boost Research • Conducted over 200 trials with university and independent researchers • Over 600 grower demonstration trials • 53 different crops • Row Crops • Vegetables • Orchard & Vineyards • 6 continents • Studies evaluating • Efficacy • Yield • Crop quality, • Stress mitigation • Germination, vigor, emergence • Chlorophyll content • Nutrient mobility

  8. What can a farmer expect to see in the field if they use Carbon Boost-S?

  9. Root Growth Under Ideal Conditions The treatment resulted in a dramatic increase in root density versus the control plants under non-stressed, ideal conditions*. CB UTC

  13. Growth Under Salinity Stress Control CB UTC

  14. Severity of Wilting Under Drought • There were dramatic differences in moisture stress symptoms between treated plants and the untreated control (UTC). CB UTC

  15. How is Carbon Boost-S different from other nutrient enhancement products? • Other nutrient enhancement products work outside of the plant in the soil solution to improve the availability of nutrients. • Carbon Boost-S is rapidly taken up by plants and works inside the plant to make it more efficient at taking up and utilizing nutrients.

  16. Carbon BoostHow It Works in the Plant Here is What We Know Today… But There is More to Learn

  17. Nutrient Movement • Some nutrients are much less mobile within the plant than others. • Some only move upward in the xylem, but not downward or toward growing points and fruit. • Carbon Boost, when added to these nutrients, enhances their uptake and internal movement within the plant. Carbon Boost-S enhances the internal movement of nutrients within the plant. Studies at UC Davis confirmed that Carbon Boost-S technology enhanced the uptake and internal movement of zinc and boron. Other independent studies have shown enhanced uptake and movement of Calcium, Zinc and Manganese.

  18. Rhizosphere • The rhizosphere is the portion of the soil closest to the growing roots • In this zone are substances exuded by the roots themselves. • In this zone are symbiotic microbes that feed off of the root exudates and in turn help plant growth by providing available nutrients or growth promoting compounds. Carbon Boost-S has a positive impact on the function and activity of the rhizosphere Independent studies have shown that Carbon Boost-S causes root exudates and soil microbes to extract more unavailable nutrients from the soil for uptake by the crop.

  22. Wheat Yield and Nutrient Uptake Research 2008 • Research conducted by university and 3rd party independent consultants at 4 locations in 3 states. • Carbon Boost-S coated NPK fertilizer (at 6 oz/ac) significantly improved yields and the uptake of N, P, K, Ca and Mg.

  23. Wheat Nutrient Uptake Research 2008 • 15-20% increase in N uptake • 18 to 20% increase in P uptake. • 17 to 19% increase in K uptake Source: Dr. Leo Espinoza , Professor Soil Science, University of AR
