This document may contain forward‐looking statements that are based on management's expectations, estimates,

projections and assumptions. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks and

uncertainties, which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual future results may differ materially from what is forecast in

forward‐looking statements due to a variety of factors, including, without limitation: general economic conditions in the Company's

markets, particularly government agricultural policies, levels of capital expenditures, both in public and private sectors, foreign

currency exchange rates, the occurrence of natural disasters, continued competitive pricing pressures in the marketplace, as well as

the Company's ability to continue to gain acceptance of its products.
