Promotions of BHN Products - Field Trials • Taiwan Agriwell has arranged field trials with distributors, retailers and farmers on certain economic crops to promote the competitive advantages of BHN’s products. • In 2012, we demonstrated a completed program on sugar apple!

Field Demonstration In 2012 - Introduction Sakyamuni (Gautama Buddha) Sugar apple (Custard-pineapple)

Field Demonstration In 2012 - Introduction • Tropical fruit, planted in southeast of Taiwan. • Planted area: 5,800 ha. (14332 acres) − The largest in the world • Production: 60,000 MT • Value: US$ 94.5 Million (statistics: 2011) Southeast

Field Demonstration In 2012 - Introduction • Harvest: Twice a year. − Spring-summer & fall-winter • First-mover Advantage − Harvest earlier, price higher! − The earliest time to market can be 2 to 3 weeks ahead of the regular harvest. • Purpose of the Field Trial: − Demonstrating the effect of BHN products on earlier harvest and higher production.

Field Demonstration In 2012 - Fruit Management Program • Start Date: − Early February, 2012 • Location: − Heng-Chung ( 恆春 ) & Fang-Liau ( 枋寮 ) townships • Applied Products: − Huma Pro – Lase − Super Phos – Breakout − Max Pak

Field Demonstration In 2012 • Early February: Applied Huma Pro (30L/Ha) to the whole field (before pruning). Before Treatment

Field Demonstration In 2012 Mr. Yang (distributor) explaining the tree’s problems and giving recommendations to the local farmer.

Field Demonstration In 2012 • March 16 - 18: − Performed soil treatment with Lase (10L/Ha) and Super Phos (10L/Ha) in both townships. • March 16 - 20: − Performing leaf treatment with Breakout (5L/Ha) and MaxPak (2.5L/Ha) in Fang-Liau township. − The raining and monsoon in Heng-Chun township have postponed the leaf treatment to the end of March.

Field Demonstration In 2012 Treated Untreated Vigorous growth and more flowers

Field Demonstration In 2012 Treated Untreated More flowers

Field Demonstration In 2012 • Early April: Trees started to bloom − 1 st artificial pollination begun. − 2 nd leaf treatment with Breakout (5L/Ha) and MaxPak (2.5L/Ha). − Pollen collection: Male flowers Female flowers

Field Demonstration In 2012 • Artificial Pollination: Female flowers Inject male pollen to female flowers

Field Demonstration In 2012 • April 11: − After the 1 st artificial pollination, the trees bloomed luxuriantly and started to form baby fruits. − The artificial pollination was continuing. • April 18: Fruits set with large quantity. Treated Untreated

Field Demonstration in 2012 • May 3: − We got enough fruit quantity (20-50 pcs/plant) and then stopped the artificial pollination. − Fruit size (diameter) reached to 2 cm (0.8 in) in Fang-Liau, and 3 ~ 5 cm (1.2 ~ 2 in)in Heng-Chun.

Field Demonstration In 2012 Treated Untreated

Field Demonstration In 2012 • May 25: − The fruit size (diameter) grow up to 5 ~ 7 cm (2 ~ 2.8 in) in Fang-Liau, and 10 cm (3.9 in)in Heng-Chun (ready to cover with bags). Treated

Field Demonstration In 2012 • July 13: Harvest 15 days earlier than others! Time to Celebrate!

Field Demonstration In 2012 • Average weight: 669 g/fruit (regular weight: 500~600g)

Field Demonstration In 2012 - Discussion • Behind the Scene − On August 8, 2009, the southern Taiwan was attacked by typhoon Morakot and lost US$ 650 Billion value in the agriculture industry. − The sugar apple farmer was one of the victims of the typhoon. Because of the tragic damage, he was about to give up planting sugar apple this year. − After the field demonstration, the farmer truly appreciated of our distributor, Mr. Yang, introducing him the BHN products. The impressive performance of BHN products has not only facilitated the profitability of his farm land, but also gained his faith back on planting sugar apple.

Field Demonstration In 2012 - Discussion • Lessons Learned − Owing to our first time managing sugar apple field trial, we decided to keep 30 ~ 50 fruits/tree merely based on the statistics from governmental research station.  This decision has resulted in 1/3 fruit dropping when reaching the maturity, and shortening the length of harvesting period.  The trees were unable to gain enough nutrients for fruit setting. − After the spring-summer harvest, we have limited the number of fruit set to 20 ~ 35 fruits/tree during our fall-winter trial.  We expect to diminish the fruit dropping and prolong the harvest.

Field Demonstration In 2012 - Discussion • Lessons Learned − Despite the spring-summer harvest failing to meet our estimation, the significant improvement has impressed the nearby litchi farmers.  Those litchi farmers have contacted us for managing their litchi fields in 2013.
