CedarCide Industries is currently testing its nematode control product "Nema-Safe". This "Natures DeFender" label has proven successfulo in national and international tests for control of nematodes, an agricultural deliema in root crops and flower production. Initial results support over 20 years of grass root testing performed by noted organic expert Malcombe Beck of the Gardenville Method. Natures DeFender "Nema Safe" is available by license to interested formulators or suppliers of national and international agriculture supplies.



The application of Nema-Safe to growing media and soil has a tendency to attract soil fungi such as actinomycetes and others that become antagonists to root knot and burrowing nematodes. Specific application rates have not yet been determined but the suggested experimental application could be as follows:

For shallow rooted plants (flowers etc.) 20# per 1,000 square feet incorporated into the top three inches of soil before planting. If planted in rows, application rate could be 2# per 100 linear feet incoporated in a depth of 3 inches.

For root crops, Potatoes. Apply in the planting furrow at the rate of 21lb. per 100 linear feet.
Seed potatoes may be placed directly on the Nema-Safe and then covered with soil.
No express guaranties or warranties are made for this product.
Keep records of all application rates, varieties, and results for future reference.

USDA Research Leader Dr. Joe M. Bradford Endorses Agricultural Industry Breakthrough

Chemical-free farming and CedarCide products were the sole topic of discussion at the recent, closed-door meeting of the USDA in Weslaco, Texas. Doctor Joe M. Bradford PHD, United States Department of Agriculture research leader and soil scientist hosted the historic debut of CedarCide products recently released for agricultural use. In attendance at the four hour session was noted organic scientist, Malcomb Beck from San Antonio, Ben Oldag from Rosenberg, Lon Musgrove from Houston and CedarCide Industries CEO Dave L. Glassel from Conroe. Also in attendance was Mr. Max Bowen, CFO of CedarCide Industries and Martin Reiner, CFO of AG Org, Inc.

Weslacos temporarily closed mid valley air terminal re-opened to allow the CedarCide entourage to land at its facilities located adjacent to the USDA's agricultural research center.

CedarCide products are the non-chemical alternative to the toxic organophosphates currently found in soils and streams. These harsh chemicals have been linked to cancer and unsatisfactory organ development in children. Organophosphates have been used as pesticides in the production of fruits and vegetables continuously grown and shipped from numerous truck farms located in the lush Rio Grande valley of Texas.

A recent EPA mandate prohibits the use of certain organophosphates and limits the use of others. Dursban, a popular organophosphate used in 801 consumer items, has recently been scheduled for removal from retailer shelves by December of 2001, however Dursban is still available for wide spread use in the agricultural industry.

Twenty years of research using CedarCide as a subterranean insect repellent was reviewed by Dr. Joe Bradford. "We have destroyed our soils with chemicals" quoted Dr. Bradford. We must now mend them to allow the organic healing to begin. It is an honor to have at my disposal the results of Mr. Malcomb Beck's extensive knowledge of organics and CedarCide. Mr. Beck is the undisputed and world-renowned expert on the growth of food the natural way, without any chemical assistance.

Current results of Dr. Bradfords organic test plots revealed substantial production increases over chemically grown products. "The use of CedarCide will further increase production" stated Dr. Bradford. "CedarCide products are proven to eliminate nematode damage in all applications tested " stated Malcomb Beck. " Nematodes are the biggest predator of the agricultural industry" stated Lon Musgrave of AG ORG, Inc; supplier of organic fertilizers used in Dr. Bradford's ongoing research. The CedarCide breakthrough for nematode control, without the use of toxic chemicals is the most exciting event to ever happen in the agricultural industry.

CedarCide agricultural and consumer products are manufactured in Conroe, Texas by CedarCide Industries, Incorporated. More information about CedarCide can be obtained at www.cedarcide.com.
