Guar Global Releases Initial Farm Report Detailing Crop Results and Related Activities in Rajasthan, India

DALLAS, TX--(Marketwired - Dec 16, 2013) - Guar Global Ltd. (OTCQB: GGBL) ("Guar Global" or the "Company"), a company aiming to implement innovative strategies and methods to increase crop yields of guar, an organic gelling agent used extensively in hydraulic fracturing by the oil and gas sector, announced today it has received a detailed operations report from its regional farm management team.

The internal report was prepared by Ms. Jolly Masih B.Sc., M.B.A (Agribusiness), Manager of Strategic Planning for Guar Global Ltd., and which was reviewed and edited by Mr. Ganesh Prajapat B.Sc. (Ag.), M.B.A. (International Business), Manager of Farm Development & Research for Guar Global Ltd.

The report details the entire first crop cycle at the Hanumangarh research farm operated by Guar Global Ltd. To date it is believed that although Guar has been grown locally for centuries, there has never been any major research undertaken on the crop and this report represents several firsts. It is further intended that this report will lead to future studies encompassing wider agricultural practices and processing methodologies.

The report is focused on Guar Global's operations within a primary guar growing region centered around Leelawali Village situated 20 kilometers from Hanumangarh Town. The village is located in the administrative region of the Indira Gandhi Canal. Before the recent rise in Guar prices, the crop was farmed solely through rain-fed irrigation practices, and Guar Global has successfully led the initiative to introduce managed irrigation along with fertilization and pest controls as a means to increase crop yields.

The report includes numerous details and challenges. The results show how even a modicum of modern farm management techniques ultimately led to an initial crop of 46 metric tons of high quality guar seed. The test seed is now slated to serve as the foundation for our Guar Global Farmer/Partner cooperative program which aims to replicate our initiatives across the region and to bring a larger number of farm operations into our growing business model. 

Mr. Michael Shores, Guar Global's CEO states, "We have learned immensely in this, our first season in Rajasthan. The report clearly encompasses the challenges we met and overcame, and the resulting data we have amassed is extremely beneficial. As an added and very important bonus, our work on the ground has led to many new relationships with regional farmers and industry leaders who now know that we are there to make a positive difference. This all combines to really kick-start our efforts for 2014 and we look forward to seeing even greater results in the coming months ahead."
