3 Estimated Floriculture Production Cost 60% of Market Value/Product Pest Control is 5% of Production Cost

4 Global Flower Pest Control Industry Market Value Current & Future Forecast* Global Flower Estimates (in Billions USD) Current Value 2017 (x 1,000,000) *(mainly due to Asia Market Growth) Future Value 2030 (x 1,000,000) Wholesale Market Value USD$ USD$ Estimated 60% Production Costs USD$ USD$ Estimated 5% Pest Control Costs USD$ 1-2 USD$

5 Main Target Insects/Mites & Diseases Spider Mites Thrips Aphids Whitefly Leafminer Mealy Bugs Nematodes Botrytis Powdery Mildew Downey Mildew White Rust Pythium Rhizoctonia Phytophthora

6 20-year History of Significant Change Flora Holland Auction Establishes Organic Flower Category Launch of Online Organic Bouquet Company 2004 First Certification of Veriflora Farms in Colombia Continued Decrease in Organophosphates Continued Increase in Neonicotinoids Momentum Gaining for Sustainable Floriculture Certification Turning Point: Annual Valentines Day Publicity about High Chemical Use in Flower Industry Unsafe for Workers & Consumers, Environment Effects (Water, Soil Contamination & death of Bees) % of flowers from Colombia Veriflora Certified Increased Focus on Sustainable Flower Production Practices

7 South America (Colombia & Ecuador) supplies 70% of US flower imports > 1.5 billion stems Veriflora Sustainably Grown Certification for Sustainable Ornamental Horticulture

8 Bio-Control Development

9 Bio-Control Development in Africa Real IPM (Kenya) Ltd Dudutech Kenya

10 Real IPM Kenya Real IPM growers reduced pesticide usage 50% for roses, when they adopt full bio-intensive IPM program

11 Real IPM Kenya For more information: Results of 0% use of chemical pesticides to kill spider mites results: higher rose yields bigger heads longer stems better leaf quality more profit for a quality product

12 Bio-Control Development (REAL IPM Has License rights) Metarhizium common insect-killing fungus occurs naturally in the soil. contact biopesticide compatible with fungicides and insecticides

13 Bio-Control Development BioBee Biological Systems --Kibbutz Sde Eliyahu in northern Israel Phytoseiulus persimilis, most effective natural predator of Tetranychus urticae (red spider mite), reduces pesticides 80 percent for export. BioBee will ship 600 million of predatory mites to Colombia

14 BioBee has 9 patented Products Bio Persimilis

15 Bio-Control Development Natural Enemies: Beneficial Nematodes e-nema from Germany nemaplus BASF from Germany NEMASYS DUDUTECH from KENYA NEMATECH

16 Beneficial Nematodes Pest Common Name Pest -Latin Name Beneficial Nematode Steinernema Trade Name Solution fungus gnat Bradysia paupera S. feltiae Nemaflor thrips butterfly caterpillar Oak processionary caterpillars Frankliniella occidentalis Duponchelia fovealis, Opogona sacchari Thaumetopoea processionea S. feltiae Nemaplus S. carpocapsae Nemastar S. feltiae Tp-nema

17 Bio-Control Development Other Global Companies: Biobest Belgium Bioline France (Syngenta) Kopperts NL

18 INNOVATION: Amblyline and Swirskiline Sticks offer a perfect solution to hang a mini sachet if there is nothing to hang in pots providing biocontrol to feed on immature thrips, primarily stage L1. Amblyseius cucumeris and Amblyseius swirskii.

19 New Safer Home Products for Consumers

20 POSTHARVEST QUALITY

21 Pest Control Postharvest Quality in Flowers Floralife Transport Paper Waxed tissue paper that releases chlorine dioxide gas when subjected to humidity > 40% in shipping boxes where high moisture promotes growth of pathogens. Effective to inhibit the spread of Botrytis disease spores. Easy product to use in flower shipping cartons. Treatment takes effect during shipment to the customer. Good for cut flowers and potted plants. After 7 days Control Treated w Transport Paper

22 Pest Control Postharvest Quality in Flowers Ethylene 乙烯 Ethylene has been reported to contribute 30% of all total post harvest lossess in horticulture crops. 乙烯可造成园艺作物 30% 的采后损失

23 AgroFresh Products for Ornamentals (Formerly DOW CHEMICAL SUBSIDIARY) Prevents ethylene damage on tulip bulbs during storage Promotes better flower quality

24 AgroFresh Products for Ornamentals (Formerly DOW CHEMICAL SUBSIDIARY) Chemicals used to control Ethylene

25 AgroFresh Products for Ornamentals (Formerly DOW CHEMICAL SUBSIDIARY) Applications in rooms and transport containers Tablets containing 0.63% 1-MCP (1tablet / 10 m3) Truck kits based on PVA pouches containing 0.14% 1-MCP (1 g/m3) Applications in boxes: Sachets containing 0.014% 1-MCP (2 per box)

26 Important Components When Purchasing Fresh Flowers 消费者购买鲜花关注什么 11% 21% 4% Quality was the #1 issue. 质量是第一位的 64% Service Price Quality Selection 64%

27 Flower Production & Postharvest Quality 10% of World s Urban Consumers 800 Million x Purchases/Year 1 billion tourists enjoying landscapes
