Pacific Agriscience on the Run!
September 5, 2010
Pacific Agriscience Singapore staff went through the distance and took part in the 2nd Yellow Ribbon Prison Run.
Featuring a unique run route, the signature event of the Yellow Ribbon Project, the Yellow Ribbon Prison Run 2010 sets a pace unlike any other run in Singapore. It has taken runners past several historical sites in the Changi area including Johore Battery, Changi Chapel Museum and Old Changi Prison Wall. As runners approached the finish line, they entered the conserved old Changi Prison Gatehouse which brought them all inside the new Changi Prison Complex.
Themed “Beyond the Run”, the Yellow Ribbon Prison Run 2010 was all about giving ex-offenders a second chance to start afresh. The proactive participation of Pacific Agrsicience was a show of their support for the reintegration of ex-offenders to society by helping them unlock the second prison — the stigma associated with being a former inmate.

Pacific Agriscience signs JV with SIRIUS SCIENCE CO. LTD, Japan to sell Silicon Metaland Rare Metals
April, 2006
A joint venture between Pacific Agriscience and Sirius Science Co. Ltd of Japan was established to sell silicon metal and rare metals, notably Indium and Tungsten, to the electronics industry in Japan. However, we are also selling silicon metal to other Japanese companies in a wide variety of industries (paint, construction and transport) to utilise the unique conductivity properties of this element. Pacific Agriscience sources the silicon and rare metals from its associated plants in China, and Sirius Science (which has an extensive network of contacts in Japanese electronic companies) markets the products in Japan. The joint venture is also currently exploring the feasibility of entering the manufacture of poly-crystalline silicon in either Singapore or Australia. Poly-crystalline silicon with purity in excess of 99.999999% is used in the manufacture of electronic circuits and solar panels. In recent years, demand for poly-crystalline silicon has outstripped supply by a very large margin because of growing demand for solar energy in the face of the rising price of oil.
Gearing up for organic and ECO-FRIENDLY farming
Pacific Agriscience is developing a range of plant-derived and biological crop protection products that can be certified for use in organic farming. Cooperators and manufacturers are welcome to participate in this project which has very good growth and profit potential in the near to medium term.
Demand for organically-grown produce will continue to increase rapidly and where organic farming is not entirely feasible, eco-friendly farming methods in which minimal usage of synthetic pesticides is practised will mean an increase in demand for such natural crop protection products.
Our Current Line-Up of Products Include:
ECO-OIL
Botanical oil for mites and aphid control
UNIFLOW SULFUR
Flowable Sulfur
GREENCAL
High purity Gypsum from a mine in Thailand
ECO-CARB
A fungicide based on potassium bicarbonate for powdery mildew control
NEEMAZAL
Azadiractin insecticide derived from a very sophisticated German extraction method
CHITUS
Chitosan-based foliar sprays for yield enhancement and disease suppression
OS-STERLING
Oligosacharide-based yield enhancer with disease suppressing effect
