As collaborators the parties will work together under this MOU to evaluate the business strategies for the Brad technology, manufacturing, distribution and marketing for entry into India.

Clean Seed Capital Group Ltd. has announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (the “MOU”) with Brad Technologies SAS a France based AgriTech company, whose mission is to be the voice of soil health by providing farmers with enhanced real-time knowledge driven by artificial intelligence (“AI”).

Brad is the creator of a decision-helping digital solution aimed at farmers transitioning towards agroecological and regenerative agriculture principles and promoting practices and collaborating to restore and preserve soil health. Brad uses data acquired and returned in real time coupled with AI to provide farmers with an improved knowledge of the state of health of their soils.  

The MOU outlines collaboration opportunities to achieve Brad’s underlying goal of commercializing its technology and Clean Seed’s goal of facilitating progress to support the implementation of agricultural technologies that improve the well-being of the farmer, the land and food production on the ground in India. AgriTech is one of the prevailing solutions to mitigate climate change, satisfy consumer demands to improve yields and restore the heath of the soil.

As collaborators the parties will work together under this MOU to evaluate the business strategies for the Brad technology, manufacturing, distribution and marketing for entry into India and further technology collaboration opportunities between the parties to accelerate growth for both organizations.

Graeme Lempriere, Chairman and CEO of Clean Seed, stated, “We continue to strengthen our relationships in India through a strong collaborative approach on the ground, our SMART Seeder MINI-MAX™ technology has become the cornerstone of our effort to implement advancements in agriculture, our ongoing efforts to prepare for commercialisation with Mahindra are on track. Brad Technologies is a welcomed additional opportunity to expand both our impact on the ground in India and other meaningful opportunities for both parties.”

A pre-production MINI-MAX™ Alpha unit was dispatched to various farms in the Punjab and Haryana region to complete the final stage of trials with the Northern Farmer Mega FPO.

 Clean Seed Capital Group Ltd. is pleased to announce the successful completion of the next phase of commitments within the MOU with Mahindra & Mahindra Limited announced February 13, 2023.

Clean Seed and Mahindra recently completed the development, production, and assembly of the first pre-production MINI-MAX™ Alpha units for India.  This milestone highlights the commitment of both parties to deliver SMART Seeder™ technologies with specifications required for its customer base in the region.

A pre-production MINI-MAX™ Alpha unit was dispatched to various farms in the Punjab and Haryana region to complete the final stage of trials with the Northern Farmer Mega FPO.  These conclusive trials were a complete success while focusing on direct seeding rice, one of India’s leading crops.  MINI-MAX™ is positioned to address wheat, rice, maize, pulses and millets which makes up the bulk of the Indian crop production.

In addition, the validation processes, successes, and stability of our technology has allowed for the pre-production MINI-MAX™ to continue to be operated by the FPO without on-ground support from Clean Seed or Mahindra.

Chairman and CEO of Clean Seed, Graeme Lempriere, said, “The completion of this phase of our MOU with our esteemed partner Mahindra & Mahindra demonstrates our mutual vision, commitment, and ambitions to have a meaningful impact on the global agriculture system. 

I would like to again thank the Canadian Provincial and Federal Governments and Agencies, our shareholders, and the farming community for your support, as well as all the parties on the ground in India that have worked tirelessly to bring this opportunity to fruition. Our experiences in India to date has been tremendous.”

Clean Seed Capital Group Ltd.  is pleased to announce the results of our input reduction and yield results from this seasons’ harvest at our proving grounds in India in collaboration with our partners, Northern Mega Farmers FPO and University of Chandigarh.   

The results from utilising the SMART Seeder MINI-MAX™ in a side-by-side comparison to the most current and most utilised seeding equipment available in India shows an overall increase to farm cash flows of 36 per cent using SMART Seeder MINI-MAX™ comprised of 19 per cent reduction in cost per acre; 26 per cent increase in per acre crop yield; 67 per cent reduction of chemical fertilizer use, and 67 per cent reduction of diesel consumption.   

The results and related harvest are receiving significant attention from the farming community, our partners and regional news.

Graeme Lempriere, Chairman & CEO said “Our mandate with MINI-MAX™ in India was to demonstrate the scalability of our technology portfolio, from our North American SMART Seeder MAX™ Series 60, into a compact design for additional international markets. We are proud to have confirmed with our partners in India that MINI-MAX™ produced benefits consistent with those of the SMART Seeder MAX™ here in North America as we move closer to a definitive agreement to mass produce the MINI-MAX™ for the Indian market and other international opportunities.”

Clean Seed’s SMART Seeder MAX™ technologies are revolutionary seeding tools that utilise the unique synergy of sophisticated electronic metering and intuitive software control putting row-by-row variable rate technology at the forefront of agricultural innovation.  Our innovations create a new class of highly accurate seeding equipment designed specifically for today’s farmer.
