African GREEN Developments (Pty) Ltd.
•Located on 15 hectares of abandon farmland in Midrand, South Africa, we’ve developed the world’s first, zero-carbon footprint, food production/skills development/healthcare center:
– Healthcare treatment center (agreement currently under negotiation)• 12 full-time health care personnel & videoconferencing facilities to serve over 100 patients/day• Providing a wide array of healthcare services free of charge
– Powered by 100% renewable energy• On-site Solar PV & Waste-to-Energy power generation• Nearly 4.5 MW of power• Offset equivalent of 860k tons/yr of CO2, with market value of nearly $130 million• Collecting/avoiding use of 1.3 million cubic meters of freshwater/yr
AGD Sustainable Farm, Healthcare &Skills Development Center
– Commercial-scale organic food & feed production• 12.6 hectares of climate-controlled, greenhouse
growth area• Over 15,000 tons/yr food & animal feed production• Over $40 million in revenues/yr• Employing180 managers, skilled & unskilled workers
– Education/Skills development• Offering free of charge, hands-on education/skill
development to 150 students per session• 16 full-time instructors/staff serving 600 students/yr• Fully furnished, on-campus living accommodations

AGD Visitors Center• Daily Visitors
– Providing 100+ adults & children with education enrichment on our operations, partner opportunities & living a sustainable way of life.
– Staffed by AGD Skills Development Center students & community volunteers– Because the AGD Sustainable Farm is an ideal forum for illustrating real life science
concepts, we have developed educational materials and make our systems available to schools, zoos, museums and other public venues.
•Some of these concepts include: the nitrogen cycle, the role of bacteria in ecology, water ecology, living systems, life cycles, the science of food production, and hydrodynamics

AGD Sustainable Farm• Algae Cultivation• For high-value fish/livestock feed, nutrition supplements, oil rich in
Omega3 & pigments
Confidential
AGD Sustainable Farm• Shrimp Cultivation
– Utilizing ‘Super-Intensive Shrimp Raceway Farming’ method– 15-20 times the productivity per square meter of intensive shrimp
farming
Confidential
• Aquaponics– Combines Aquaculture with Hydroponics inside a series of
climate-controlled, LED lit, multi-span greenhouses – Produces 5X the vegetables/fruits/herbs than conventional
farming with 5% of the water– Instead of having to rely on chemical nutrients for a hydroponic
system, fish waste is biologically converted into nutrients the plants/fruits/herbs need to grow
