VANCOUVER, BC--(MARKET WIRE)--Apr 28, 2006 -- Mr. Brian Nichols, President of First American Scientific Corp. (FASC) (OTC BB:FASC.OB - News), is pleased to announce that the Minnesota Valley Alfalfa Producers cooperative has signed a purchase order to buy 2 KDS Micronex systems which will be become an integral part of their process to produce nutrient rich "Premium Alfalfa Leaf Pellets." MnVAP, www.mnvap.com, a Minnesota farmer-owned cooperative founded in 1994, was created to process and market alfalfa products and has emerged as a leading processor of high quality alfalfa products.

According to MnVAP, with the economic and environmental impacts of alfalfa already well documented, MnVAP has embarked upon an aggressive value-added plan for alfalfa processing. This plan utilizes MnVAP's processing expertise to separate alfalfa leaves and stems. The resulting product, alfalfa leaf pellets, provides additional economic benefit to Minnesota farmers.
According to Brian Nichols, "We have been working closely with MnVAP this year to assist them in identifying equipment that is the most suitable and economic to enhance their operations. We are pleased to announce that our KDS Micronex was chosen as the best for the job. In addition to efficiently reducing particle size, the KDS will be used to replace existing natural gas dryers resulting in significant cost savings. Fabrication of the new larger KDS machine will commence immediately with delivery of the first machine scheduled for 6 weeks."
