Clean Seed develops the Mini-Max to introduce its Smart Seeder technology to developing countries

Clean Seed Capital Group Ltd. ("Clean Seed" or the "Company") (TSX-V: CSX) will be introducing its Mini-MAX™, a scaled-down model of its North American SMART Seeder MAX™, to developing countries.
 
The Company is preparing to ship the first Mini-MAX™ demonstration unit to India in March 2022 for demonstrations and trials with one of India's top agricultural equipment manufacturers, with whom we anticipate collaboration on commercialization and government-supported initiatives. The Company will be working with likeminded organizations in developing countries to produce and distribute the Mini-MAX™ based on the specific requirements for commercial agriculture in each country or region.

Developing countries face mounting challenges in agriculture, including limited availability of land and water; utilization of ineffective practices mired in the time-worn clutches of history which deplete soil health; broadcast fertilizer techniques and flood irrigation; soil erosion, falling water levels, rising input costs and other environmental impacts. Our SMART Seeder™ technology addresses many of these challenges in the context of North American farming operations. The Mini-MAX™ features key elements of the SMART Seeder MAX™ as well as all-new proprietary elements specifically designed for farming operations in developing nations.

Graeme Lempriere, Chief Executive Officer, states "The Mini-MAX™ is complementary to our SMART Seeder MAX™ product offerings and has been developed from common technological fundamentals. We are pleased to generate additional offerings from our intellectual property portfolio to address challenges at the field level globally and are committed to demonstrating that the SMART Seeder™ technology is scalable for farming operations of all sizes and geographies. We look forward to updating our shareholders in the coming months as we progress business opportunities in India and other developing nations."
