AgriFORCE Growing Systems Comments on 600% Growth in Mining Capabilities and Legislation Initiatives

Vancouver, British Columbia, Jan. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — AgriFORCE Growing Systems Ltd. (NASDAQ: AGRI), a leading technology-driven innovator, recently reported on the acquisition of its 5 MW bitcoin mining facility located in Columbiana County, Ohio. This acquisition has increased the Company’s hashrate by over 600% and highlights the Company’s strategic growth plan of stranded gas assets to be coupled with sustainable agricultural assets in the coming months. Commenting on the Company’s incremental growth, Jolie Kahn, CEO, stated “We are growing at a steady rate having increased hashrate by over 600% in under 60 days. We will continue looking at stranded assets with scalable growth potential and looking to HODL our Bitcoin at 10% or more of our output.”

Supporting Ohio’s Role in Cryptocurrency Innovation

Ohio has positioned itself as a pioneer in blockchain and cryptocurrency innovation, driven by initiatives like the proposed Ohio Bitcoin Reserve Act (HB 703). This legislation, aimed at leveraging Bitcoin as a hedge against currency devaluation, underscores the state’s commitment to financial and technological advancements. AgriFORCE’s investment in the Columbiana County facility aligns with these efforts, cementing Ohio’s reputation as a leader in clean energy integration and digital asset development.

Economic and Social Benefits

The facility’s operations are expected to generate meaningful economic benefits for Ohio, including:

· Job Creation: The project will create new opportunities in advanced technology and sustainable agriculture, addressing workforce development needs in the region.

· Enhanced Food Security: By implementing agricultural practices that produce nutrient-rich crops, AgriFORCE will contribute to addressing food insecurity challenges in Ohio, where over 14% of households face such issues.
