The Problem Pesticides are evil because: They are expensive They pollute the environment They are unsustainable They kill bees They cause algae blooms in the Baltic sea - they kill fish, create Dead Zones

The Solution A novel, personalized Bio-pesticide with reduced environmental impact that can be delivered on demand to areas in need using satellite data to forecast and track insect pest incidence.

Advantages ALPACA Algae Pesticides Cheap $ Expensive $$$$ Uses Satellite Data for tailored product Is literally poison shipped in bulk Kills only targeted Pests Kills Everything Does not kill Bees Kills EVERYTHING Bio-foods Contains dangerous pesticides Eco-friendly Destroys the Baltic Sea Personalized for your needs It's a poison to kill EVERYTHING In accordance to EU Laws Qualifies for organic farming Barely legal, heavily taxed in western europe

Traction 18,6 mln Ha 49,4 mld zł 1,4 mln Powierzchnia użytków rolnych w Polsce (2015) 49,4 mld zł Roślinna produkcja rolnicza (2015) 1,4 mln Gospodarstw rolnych (2015)

Wartość rynku ochrony roślin od IV kw. 2016 do III kw. 2017 The Market 2,5 mld zł Wartość rynku ochrony roślin od IV kw. 2016 do III kw. 2017

Competition Normal pesticides - for example Fyfaton 440 EW Toxic for all insects (including bees) Farmer has to pay about 670zl per season Contribute to Baltic Sea Dead Zones Eco-pesticides - for example DIPEL WG Farmer has to pay minimum 2600zl per season Natural “pesticides” made from essential oils - non-economic TransAlga startup - use modified algae, but No Sat. data, so no personalization and no responsiveness.
