Agria Subsidiary PGG Wrightson Announces Acquisition

Agria Corporation

(the "Company" or "Agria") today announced that its New Zealand-listed subsidiary, PGG Wrightson Limited

("PGW"), has agreed to purchase the turf irrigation business of Advanced Irrigation Systems Limited ("AIS") with settlement scheduled to take place on June 30, 2015. AIS was established in 1989 and has become one of the market leaders in the New Zealand turf irrigation sector. PGW CEO Mark Dewdney commented, "Turf irrigation is highly complementary for PGW's operations and also has synergies with our turf business. Advanced Irrigation Systems brings with it sole distribution of Rain Bird golf irrigation products and six dedicated sales, design and support staff driving business operations across the country, and will continue to be a center of turf irrigation excellence as part of PGW. This acquisition, while relatively small, expands PGW's offerings into the design, consultancy and project management aspects of the turf irrigation sector and fits well with our strategy of becoming the market leader in water and irrigation." PGW also announced that it had agreed with Silver Fern Farms (SFF) to terminate the agreement entered into in 2009 governing livestock procurement services provided by the Company. Mr. Dewdney said, "The agreement with SFF was entered into at a different time with respect to our business strategies and we have agreed that it was no longer needed to regulate the livestock procurement relationship. PGW has supplied agency procurement for SFF for many years and both parties are confident that that this relationship will continue to develop and strengthen without the formality of a prescriptive agreement. We believe this move allows us to be more flexible to respond to seasonal and climatic changes that regularly occur in the livestock business. We feel that due to the maturity of the relationship we have with SFF, we will both be better-positioned to focus our efforts on working together to deliver an agency service that best accommodates our farmer customers and mutual interests."
