15 Jan 2025 07:43 CET

Sandnes, Norway, 15 January 2025 - Desert Control AS ("DSRT" or "the Company"),
a leader in soil and water conservation technology, has entered into an
agreement through its U.S. subsidiary, Desert Control Americas Inc., with Oasis
Date, North America's largest date grower and processor. This collaboration will
deploy Desert Control's Liquid Natural Clay (LNC) solution across 160 acres of
organic Medjool date palms at Oasis Date's Corn Springs Ranch in California.

The deployment, valued at NOK 1.5 million, follows a successful pilot project
launched in July 2024 for 13 acres of date palms. The pilot demonstrated
significant improvements in water retention, soil health, and overall
performance. This expanded 160-acre deployment, scheduled for completion in Q1
2025, represents a key milestone in scaling Desert Control's innovative soil and
water conservation technology across Oasis Date's operations.

"Oasis Date is setting the standard for sustainable and regenerative
agriculture, and we are proud to collaborate on this initiative," said Ole
Kristian Sivertsen, CEO of Desert Control. "By implementing Liquid Natural Clay,
we can help Oasis Date conserve water, improve soil health, and enhance yields,
reinforcing their position as a leader in environmentally conscious farming."

Oasis Date manages over 5,000 acres of date farms, producing over 1 billion
dates annually. As the majority supplier for Natural Delights®, the #1 Medjool
date brand in North America, Oasis Date leads the way in sustainable agriculture
with its commitment to regenerative organic farming. Notably, it is the world's
first and only Regenerative Organic Certified® date farm, embodying its
dedication to environmental sustainability and farmworker fairness.

"Oasis Date is a strong leader in their industry, and their dedication to
sustainability and regenerative farming practices aligns perfectly with our
vision," said Marty Weems, Managing Director of Desert Control Americas. "We are
honored to work with Oasis Date utilizing our soil and water conservation
technology to reduce operational costs and safeguard the long-term prosperity of
their ranch and farming operations."

Desert Control's LNC technology transforms sandy, fast-draining soils into
fertile, water-retentive ground, reducing irrigation needs while supporting
healthy plant growth. This partnership also holds the potential for broader
adoption of LNC technology across Oasis Date's extensive operations in
California and Arizona.
