| Now its time to see what ProGuard can do for you. Will it truly return your investment? Taking the initial cost of the netting you’ll need for your acreage and any special equipment for installing it, spread this over the expected life of the netting. With ProGuard, that is at least 15 years. This calculation will give you your depreciation percentage. Usually 3-5% of your investment costs are attributed for annual costs of installing and removing the nets… but since ProGuard can be left on indefinitely, you won’t be spending that every year. There’s a return in labor costs right there. Be sure to add in a percentage for risk… is this crop a high risk or a low risk? Add a higher percentage if it is a high risk venture. Remember that ProGuard can reduce a lot of risks… it protects crops from the cold, wind, too much sun, hail, and birds. There are returns on your investment in safeguarding your crop for fewer losses. Now add up your depreciation, your annual costs, and your risk cost. Now add the expected return from your harvest, and subtract the costs of harvesting. Mechanical harvesting is possible with the nets in place, so that is yet another return on your investment in labor savings. Since ProGuard will increase your harvest, this will increase your profits, while you’re having to subtract less for harvest costs. |

| Gintec ProGuard is worth consideration. Taking into account the superior quality of the netting itself, its ease of use, its ability to remain on the vines year round, and the ability to use faster harvesting methods with the nets intact… isn’t it worth it? |
