Introduction to Wolf Trax Nutrients
Wolf Trax Nutrients• Wolf Trax DDP Nutrients are innovative
micronutrient and secondary nutrient fertilizer products that are scientifically designed to deliver better nutrition– Utilize patented technology to coat the surface of dry
granular macronutrient blends• Better distribution of nutrient in the field• Many more points of interception for young plants• More efficient application of relatively immobile nutrients
Wolf Trax DDP Nutrients are used around the world
Available to farmers since 2002Millions of acres treated annually
• Dozens of university/government/regulatory trialsSales in over 80 regulatory jurisdictions worldwide
What is DDP?
• Dry Dispersible Powder• Unique, patented formulation• High analysis, high quality materials suitable for feed
and humans• Manufactured with similar formulating process to crop
protection products• Not simple mixtures• Not a by-product from industry
• Here’s How DDP’s deliver better Nutrition…
Innovative PlantActiv™ Formulation
• DDP Nutrients feature patented and unique technology• Chemical Formulation
• High analysis nutrients (eg. 62% zinc)• Each DDP product features at least two mineral sources - Dual-Action™
formulation for quick and extended feeding• 4 – 6 additional ingredients (formulants) have important roles: help nutrients resist
soil tie-up, adhere to prills, improve plant uptake
• Physical Formulation• Fine powder; ideal particle size for uptake
DDP = “Dry Dispersible Powder” Technology
Innovative EvenCoat™ Technology
• A more efficient application option• Patented Coating Technology
• Each and every fertilizer granule is coated• Improves distribution in the field• Use less nutrient to get better uptake
Each and every fertilizer prill is evenly coated with up DDP Nutrient (up to 1% coating per blend).
DDP Nutrients deliver early nutrition

DDP Nutrients deliver better uptake - guaranteed
Innovative FlexUse™ Design
• Wolf Trax DDP nutrients can also be applied in a liquid or foliar system– B, Ca, and Mn are highly soluble
• Flexibility to feed the crop when it needs it– Maintain the right rate throughout the growing season
DDP Nutrients are high quality
• Feed grade raw materials• Manufactured in ISO-certified
plants• Not developed from waste by-
products• Safe to handle• Much lower heavy metals• Cleaner nutrients get into plants
more effectively
DDP = Research Tested
Studies conducted by: University of Kentucky, University of Illinois, Virginia Tech, University of Arizona, Purdue, University of Saskatchewan, CIRAD, IFI, Knowledge Centre for Agriculture, Sabanci University, Danish Agricultural Advisory Service, and others
Evaluated under:• Different soils• Different climates• Different soil pH• Different crops
Wolf Trax DDP Nutrients are tested under soil conditions proven to be challenging to micronutrient availability.
DDP Nutrients are field-proven to increase yields and quality

Wolf Trax® Innovative DDP Nutrients
– Zinc DDP (62%)– Copper DDP (57.5%)– Magnesium DDP (20.0%)– Manganese DDP (33%)– Boron DDP (18.5%)– Iron DDP (47%)– Calcium DDP (27%)
“Wolf Trax nutrients are unlike any other in the market. They really are in a class of their own.”Peter ScottOrigin Fertilisers
Better Fertilizer = Better Business
• Business benefits of Wolf Trax products can be seen in several categories– Freight – Less micronutrient product shipped into and out of
blending facilities means more room for macronutrients– Handling/Labour - Less micronutrient product handled in the
blending process – meaning more macronutrient can be blended– Storage / warehouse costs - Wolf Trax products need significantly
less storage per 100 tons blended when compared to traditional granular products
What our customers have to say…
“We have been using Wolf Trax DDP Nutrients for three years. The performance of the DDP Micronutrients in the soil and their ease of use in our blending facilities are the key reasons why we have chosen Wolf Trax Nutrients.
DDP Nutrients offer better distribution in the field, and a better source of micronutrients for our leading brands. They are high performance micronutrients for higher performance farmers and deliver high performance yields.”
