This places us at 25% of our annual guidance of 70,000 tonnes, instilling confidence as we move into the more robust seasonal phase of the year. While we recognize the ongoing challenges in the market, we maintain cautious optimism about meeting our year-end targets. We'll closely monitor market conditions and adjust our strategies as necessary.

 FURTHER INFORMATION

In the first four months of 2024, Harvest received new orders totalling 17,388 tonnes for its KP Fértil® product produced at its Arapuá Fertiliser Project in Brazil, of which 8,396 tonnes were invoiced by end of the period and the remaining orders are expected to be invoiced through Q2 2024. The orders to date represent c. 50% of the total volume placed in 2023.

Despite the ongoing tightness in market prospects, there are signs pointing towards improvement in the second half of the year, particularly as it aligns with the seasonal strength of our target crops. Harvest's marketing campaign has been positively received, suggesting that new and existing buyers are returning to the marketplace as macroeconomic conditions normalise. Moving forward, we maintain our guidance target of 70,000 tonnes for the year 2024 and look forward to providing further updates to the market throughout the year.
