PACOIMA Calif. –May 18, 2007 – American Soil Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: SOYL), announced today that the first stage of initial field tests of Nutrimoist® and Agriblend® in Kuwait has been completed and that the results indicate “remarkable” improvement in the quality and yields of the potato crop that was tested.
Carl Ranno, President and CEO of American Soil Technologies, stated, “This information from the Public Authority of Agricultural Affairs and Fish Resources (PAAFR) in Kuwait is very encouraging and is consistent with the positive laboratory test results announced by government agencies in the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait in the summer of 2006. The field tests in Kuwait were done in a potato field, and the polymers substantially improved the quality and quantity of the potatoes. We have been advised by the Kuwait government that, if the tests continue to show this remarkable improvement in agriculture product, American Soil Technologies products could dramatically change agriculture and horticulture in the region.”
The second stage of tests will focus on measuring the savings of water usage. Those tests will be conducted in October of this year.
