PACOIMA, Calif.—April 6, 2006 —American Soil Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: SOYL) (“the Company”) announced today that it has purchased a patent on a unique family of stable, interactive fertilizers consisting of carbonized clusters.
“These fertilizers are very compatible with the polymer products sold by the Company for the agriculture, turf and horticulture markets,” said Carl Ranno, President and CEO of the Company. “The Company is pursuing an aggressive program of diversification of our product lines. The products obtained through this acquisition not only give us access to the $20 billion fertilizer industry, they also enhance the effectiveness of some of our existing products.”
“These fertilizers are not derived from petroleum,” said Mr. Ranno. “The nitrogen in the new products can be created instead from either aqueous or anhydrous ammonia. This acquisition will allow the Company to provide better fertilizers at a much lower cost to the consumer. We will market this product under the Soil Medic brand for turf and horticultural uses and will announce the name of the new Ag product line later this month.”
About the Patented Fertilizers
This family of patented fertilizers is stable, interactive nutrient carriers consisting of carbonous clusters. Our proprietary technology allows N-P-K and other nutrients to bond to suspended organic colloids, which produces a unique liquid fertilizer.
The use of these fertilizers supply stressed soils with nutrient-laden carbonous clusters that are found naturally in fertile soils. Agriculture, turf, landscape & nursery managers now have a stable fertilizer that is very effective and efficient because it does not allow for leaching or volatilization (once it has attached itself).
