This excerpt taken from the SYT 6-K filed Jul 24, 2009. Fungicides: major
brands ALTO®,
AMISTAR®,
BRAVO®,
REVUS®, RIDOMIL
GOLD®,
SCORE®,
TILT®,
UNIX®
Fungicide sales
were lower as a result of challenging market conditions including drought in
Latin America and reduced wheat acreage in Europe and the USA. Sales
were further constrained by emerging market risk management and by supply
shortages in advance of new capacity coming on-stream. Price
increases across the fungicide portfolio partially offset volume declines and
illustrated the yield-enhancing value of the company’s
technology. REVUS® sales
increased significantly with successful launches in new markets, notably France
and Italy.

AMISTAR® showed
exceptional growth notably in Latin America, with higher soybean acreage,
increased soybean rust pressure and strong demand from wheat growers. In the USA
the AMISTAR® range
benefited from the development of a new market segment to prevent disease in
corn. There was good growth in other fungicides including BRAVO®, which
is widely used to counter fungicide resistance in European cereals. REVUS®, a new
fungicide for vegetables and vines, was successfully launched in the UK and
Korea.

In 2008,
we strengthened our world leading position in fungicides in a market
characterized by increased usage intensity and growers’ focus on plant
performance. Growth in AMISTAR®
reflected the success of a variety of combination products used across
crops. AMISTAR® is now
sold on 120 crops in 100 countries and has proven a yield-boosting effect in
addition to excellent disease control. In the USA, fungicide use on
corn and wheat grew rapidly, with QUILT®
establishing a leadership position in an expanding corn fungicide
market. In Latin America, fungicide growth was broad based across the
region with PRIORI Xtra® now the
leading product in Brazil for the prevention and treatment of soybean
rust.

Increased
usage intensity and a focus on plant performance allowed us to reinforce our
world leading position in fungicides. Growth in sales of AMISTAR®
reflected the success of a variety of combination products used across
crops. In the USA, the development of the corn fungicide market has
been spearheaded by the launch of QUILT®;
fungicide use on wheat is also growing rapidly. In Brazil PRIORI
Xtra® is now
the leading product for the prevention and treatment of soybean
rust.

After a difficult first half in Europe, due to the severe winter, and in the USA, as a result of drought in the south, fungicide sales recovered in the second half. Sales of AMISTAR® increased in Asia and in Latin America, despite difficult market conditions in Brazil. SCORE® showed good growth, notably in Asia.
This excerpt taken from the SYT 20-F filed Mar 1, 2006. Fungicides: major brands ACANTO®, ALTO®, AMISTAR®, BRAVO®, RIDOMIL GOLD®, SCORE®, TILT®, UNIX®
Fungicide sales registered strong growth across all regions, 18% higher than 2003 overall, 12% when expressed at constant exchange rates with volumes up 13% but local currency prices down 1%. AMISTAR® sales exceeded US$500 million driven by the penetration of soybean rust in Brazil and increased demand on various crops in the USA. Growth in Europe reflected the market recovery following the drought in 2003 and the launch of product combination programs to combat cereal septoria resistance, notably with BRAVO®.
This excerpt taken from the SYT 6-K filed Feb 14, 2006. Fungicides: major brands ACANTO®, AMISTAR®, BRAVO®, RIDOMIL GOLD®, SCORE®, TILT®, UNIX®
Fungicides grew strongly in North America, Eastern Europe and Asia. In the USA, the soybean rust market proved to be small but AMISTAR® benefited from its versatility, with good demand on wheat, potatoes, vines and nuts. Sales of the cereal fungicide ACANTO® grew strongly in France. SCORE® continued its expansion in the emerging markets of Asia, notably China and Vietnam.
This excerpt taken from the SYT 6-K filed Jul 28, 2005. Fungicides: major brands ACANTO®, AMISTAR®, BRAVO®, RIDOMIL GOLD®, SCORE®, TILT®, UNIX® Fungicides registered significant, broad-based growth, particularly in the USA and the dynamic markets of eastern Europe. AMISTAR® sales grew 25 percent (CER) as its exceptional efficacy, in both single and combination forms, led to higher demand on a broad variety of crops. In the USA, the emergence of soybean
rust led to some initial sales, offsetting lower demand in Brazil. Strong contributions came also from TILT® and SCORE®. In Europe BRAVO® continues to gain acceptance in programs to combat septoria resistance.
This excerpt taken from the SYT 20-F filed Mar 16, 2005. Fungicides: major brands ACANTO®, AMISTAR®, BRAVO®, RIDOMIL GOLD®, SCORE®, TILT®, UNIX®
Sales were 3% higher, 6% lower at constant exchange rates due to lower volumes offset by the weaker US dollar. Sales of ACANTO®, AMISTAR® and UNIX® were all negatively affected by drought conditions in Western Europe, notably France and Germany, which resulted in significantly lower usage on cereals. AMISTAR® partly compensated for this with strong growth in Brazil where it was used to treat soybean rust, a significant new disease. Sales of RIDOMIL GOLD® were up slightly, with growth in the USA outweighing declines in Asia Pacific. SCORE® achieved strong growth on rice and vegetables in Asia Pacific and on a range of crops in Western Europe. Range rationalization reduced sales by 2%.
This excerpt taken from the SYT 6-K filed Feb 15, 2005. Fungicides: major brands ACANTO®, AMISTAR®, BRAVO®, RIDOMIL GOLD®, SCORE®, TILT®, UNIX®
Fungicides registered strong growth across all regions. AMISTAR® sales were driven primarily by soybean rust in Brazil and increased demand on several crops in the USA. Growth in Europe reflected recovery from drought in 2003 and the launch of combination programs to combat cereal septoria resistance, notably with BRAVO®.
