During the fourth quarter of 2021, Harvest's sales performance achieved a total volume of 22,984 tonnes of its KP Fértil(R), representing a 105% increase over the sales realised in the same period of 2020. The total 2021 accumulated sales achieved 85,030 tonnes compared to 54,115 tonnes in the year of 2020 and 27,559 tonnes in 2019.

This represents a substantial increase over 2021 and is consistent with the Company's experiences of the business growing year on year.
