Desert Control (DSRT) investor relations material

Market opportunity and industry context

• Addresses a $530bn+ global sandy soil agriculture market, with significant opportunities in California and Arizona, and further expansion potential in regions like Southern Europe, Middle East, North Africa, and Australia.

• Water scarcity and desertification are urgent global issues, with 20% of Earth's drylands degraded and 100 million hectares of productive land turning barren annually.

• California alone represents a $5bn+ agriculture market and $1bn+ golf/turf market, with high-value crops and significant irrigation needs.

Product and technology

• Developed Liquid Natural Clay (LNC), an organic soil amendment that transforms clay into a liquid for easy application via existing irrigation systems.

• LNC delivers 25-60% observed customer water savings, with a treatment duration of 3-5 years and a payback period of less than 2 years.

• LNC is non-intrusive, cost-effective, and requires only 1-2% of the clay dose compared to traditional methods.

Customer value proposition and business case

• Targets customers with water-intensive operations, constrained water supply, sandy soils, and high-value crops.

• Offers 2-5x ROI over a 5-year investment, with illustrative case studies showing up to 3x ROI and significant cost savings in water, energy, and fertilizer.

• Easy adoption with minimal disruption, leveraging existing irrigation infrastructure.
