CHINA GREEN AGRICULTURE INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

China Green Agriculture, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “us”) was incorporated as Videophone, Inc. in 1987 under the laws of the State of Kansas. It later changed its name to Discovery Systems, Inc. on June 13, 1990 and Discovery Technologies, Inc. (“Discovery Technologies”) on June 14, 1990. The State of Kansas involuntarily dissolved the Company effective December 1996. On December 4, 2006 the State of Kansas reinstated the Company's corporate charter. From December 1996 to December 2007, the Company did not engaged in any operations and was dormant.

On August 27, 2007 our Board of Directors unanimously adopted resolutions announcing a special meeting of shareholders to consider and act upon a proposed Agreement and Plan of Merger to reincorporate Discovery Technologies, Inc. (“Discovery Technologies”) in the State of Nevada by merger with and into a Nevada corporation with the same name ("Discovery Technologies Nevada") which Discovery Technologies formed for such purpose (the "Migratory Merger"). Effective September 24, 2007, the shareholders approved the Agreement and Plan of Merger as described in the definitive proxy materials filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

In accordance with the Agreement and Plan of Merger, Discovery Technologies adopted the capital structure of Discovery Technologies Nevada, which includes total authorized capital stock of 800,000,000 shares, of which 780,000,000 are common stock, with a par value of $.001 per share (the "Discovery Technologies Nevada Common Stock") and 20,000,000 shares are blank check preferred stock, with a par value of $.001 per share (the "Preferred Stock"). In addition, on the Effective Date described below, the issued and outstanding shares of our Common Stock automatically converted into shares of Discovery Technologies Nevada Common Stock at a ratio of nine (9) shares of our currently outstanding Common Stock for one (1) share of Discovery Technologies Nevada Common Stock.

As a result of the reverse stock split of registrant's common stock, the Company's outstanding shares of common stock were reduced from 18,746,196 shares to 2,083,339 shares. The Migratory Merger and reverse split became effective on October 16, 2007 (the "Effective Date").

CHINA GREEN AGRICULTURE INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

Furthermore on December 18, 2007, the Company had another reverse stock split at a ratio of 6.771:1. As a result, registrant's outstanding shares of common stock were reduced from 2,083,339 shares to 308,084 shares as of December 18, 2007.

All references in the accompanying financial statements to the number of common shares and per share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse stock splits.

On December 26, 2007, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock (the “Green Agriculture Shares”) of Green Agriculture Holding Corporation, a New Jersey corporation (“Green Agriculture” or “Green New Jersey”), through a share exchange (the “Share Exchange”) in which the Company issued 10,770,669 number of shares of its common stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) to Green Agriculture’s shareholders in exchange for the Green Agriculture Shares. Immediately prior to the Share Exchange, the Company redeemed 246,148 shares of Common Stock held by Michael Friess and Sanford Schwartz (the “Redemption”) for $550,000 and issued 111,386 new shares of Common Stock to Messrs. Schwartz and Friess, two of our directors at the time, who then appointed Tao Li as the Company’s Director and Chief Executive Officer who proceeded to effect the Share Exchange. In connection to the redemption share issuance, the Company also issued 78,462 shares of common stock to a consultant.

The Share Exchange has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition under the purchase method of accounting because the stockholders of Green Agriculture obtained control of the Company. Accordingly, the exchange of shares by the two companies has been recorded as a recapitalization of the Company, with the Company (Green Agriculture) being treated as the continuing entity. The historical financial statements presented are those of Green Agriculture. As a result of the reverse acquisition transaction described above the historical financial statements presented are those of Green Agriculture, the operating entity. Pro-forma information is not presented because the public shell’s assets are immaterial. Transaction costs incurred in the reverse acquisition have been charged to expense.

On August 24, 2007, Green Agriculture acquired 100% outstanding shares of Shaanxi TechTeam Jinong Humic Acid Product Co., Ltd. (“Techteam Jinong”, “Techteam” or “Jinong”) which owns 100% equity of Xi’an Jintai Agriculture Technology Development Company (“Xi’an Jintai” or “Jintai”). Green Agriculture was incorporated on January 27, 2007 under the laws of the State of New Jersey with initially two shareholders owning 89% and 11% of its stock. As of December 25, 2007, immediately prior to the Share Exchange, Yinshing David To (95.1%), Paul Hickey (2.45%) and Greg Freihofner (2.45%), (collectively, the “Green New Jersey Stockholders”) owned 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Green New Jersey. Green New Jersey, through its Chinese subsidiaries Techteam Jinong and Xi’an Jintai is engaged in the research and development, manufacture, distribution and sale of humic acid organic liquid compound fertilizer. The exchange of shares with Techteam has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition under the purchase method of accounting since the stockholders of the Techteam obtained control of the consolidated entity. Accordingly, the merger of the two companies has been recorded as a recapitalization of Techteam, with Techteam being treated as the continuing entity. Inter-company amounts and balances have been eliminated.

Yangling Techteam Jinong Humic Acid Product Co., Ltd. was founded in the People’s Republic of China on June 19, 2000. On February 28, 2006, Yangling Techteam Jinong Humic Acid Product Co., Ltd changed its name to be Shaanxi Techteam Jinong Humic Acid Product Co., Ltd.

On January 19, 2007, Techteam Jinong incorporated Xi’an Jintai which provides testing and experimental data collection base for the function and feature of the new fertilizer products produced by Techteam Jinong by imitating the various growing conditions and stages or cycles for a variety of plants, such as flowers, vegetables and seedlings which the fertilizers apply on. Xi’an Jintai also sells such plants themselves to its customers and generates sales.

The Company, through its subsidiaries has two business segments: Techteam Jinong’s main business is to produce and sell fertilizers, and Xi’an Jintai’s main business is to sell the products which are the by-products (fruit and vegetables) from the development experiment of the fertilizers.

Effective February 5, 2008, the Company changed its name from Discovery Technologies, Inc. to China Green Agriculture, Inc. to better reflect its business. Related to the name change, the trading symbol changed from DCOV.OB to CGAG.OB on the same day.

The Company’s current structure is set forth in the diagram below:

NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESETATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for any future period. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. The results of the six month period ended December 31, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending June 30, 2009.

Principle of consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, TechTeam Jinong and Xi’an Jintai. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. However, actual results could differ materially from those results.

Cash and cash equivalents

For statement of cash flows purposes, the Company considers all cash on hand and in banks, certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents. Cash overdraft as of balance sheet date will be reflected as liabilities in the balance sheet. As of December 31, 2008 and June 30, 2008, cash and cash equivalents amounted to $15,079,265 and $16,612,416, respectively.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

Accounts receivable

The Company's policy is to maintain reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. As of December 31, 2008 and June 30, 2008, the Company had accounts receivable of $4,540,866 and $3,590,552, net of allowance for doubtful accounts of $85,781 and $96,065, respectively.

Advances to suppliers

The Company provides advances to certain vendors for purchase of its material. As of December 31, 2008 and June 30, 2008, the advances to suppliers amounted to $584,835 and $512,845, respectively.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (determined on a weighted average basis) or net realizable value. The management compares the cost of inventories with the net realizable value and an allowance is made for writing down the inventories to their net realizable value, if lower than the cost.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Gains or losses on disposals are reflected as gain or loss in the year of disposal. The cost of improvements that extend the life of plant, property, and equipment are capitalized. These capitalized costs may include structural improvements, equipment, and fixtures. All ordinary repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

Depreciation for financial reporting purposes is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets:

Building
10-40 years
Leasehold improvements
3-5 years
Machinery and equipment
5-15 years
Vehicles
3-5 years

Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lease term or the estimated useful life, whichever is shorter.

Impairment

The Company applies the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("FAS No. 144"), issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB").  FAS No. 144 requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the assets. Whenever any such impairment exists, an impairment loss will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value.

The Company tests long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and intangible assets subject to periodic amortization, for recoverability at least annually or more frequently upon the occurrence of an event or when circumstances indicate that the net carrying amount is greater than its fair value. Assets are grouped and evaluated at the lowest level for their identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets. The Company considers historical performance and future estimated results in its evaluation of potential impairment and then compares the carrying amount of the asset to the future estimated cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds estimated expected undiscounted future cash flows, the Company measures the amount of impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to its fair value. The estimation of fair value is generally measured by discounting expected future cash flows as the rate the Company utilizes to evaluate potential investments. The Company estimates fair value based on the information available in making whatever estimates, judgments and projections are considered necessary. There was no impairment of long-lived assets for the six months ended December 31, 2008.

Revenue recognition

The Company's revenue recognition policies are in compliance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 104. Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectibility is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as unearned revenue. As of December 31, 2008 and June 30, 2008, the Company had unearned revenues of $342,711 and $88,950, respectively.

The Company's revenue consists of invoiced value of goods, net of a value-added tax (VAT). No product return or sales discount allowance is made as products delivered and accepted by customers are normally not returnable and sales discounts are normally not granted after products are delivered.

Advertising costs

The Company expenses the cost of advertising as incurred or, as appropriate, the first time the advertising takes place. Advertising costs for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, were $26,650 and $205,555, respectively. Advertising costs for the six months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, were $51,031 and $228,680, respectively.

Income taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach which allows for the recognition and measurement of deferred tax assets based upon the likelihood of realization of tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or that future deductibility is uncertain.

CHINA GREEN AGRICULTURE INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

The Company records a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, if any, based on its estimates of its future taxable income as well as its tax planning strategies when it is more likely than not that a portion or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. If the Company is able to utilize more of its deferred tax assets than the net amount previously recorded when unanticipated events occur, an adjustment to deferred tax assets would increase the Company net income when those events occur. The Company does not have any significant deferred tax asset or liabilities in the PRC tax jurisdiction.

Foreign currency translation

The functional currency of the Company is RMB. The Company uses the United States dollar ("U.S. dollars") for financial reporting purposes. The Company's subsidiaries maintain their books and records in their functional currency, being the primary currency of the economic environment in which their operations are conducted. In general, for consolidation purposes, the Company translates the subsidiaries' assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars using the applicable exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date, and the statement of income is translated at average exchange rates during the reporting period. Gain or loss on foreign currency transactions are reflected on the income statement. Gain or loss on financial statement translation from foreign currency is recorded as a separate component in the equity section of the balance sheet, as component of comprehensive income. The functional currency of the Company is Chinese Renminbi ("RMB"), the PRC's official currency. Until July 21, 2005, RMB had been pegged to US$ at the rate of RMB8.28: US$1.00. On July 21, 2005, the PRC government reformed the exchange rate system into a managed floating exchange rate system based on market supply and demand with reference to a basket of currencies. In addition, the exchange rate of RMB to US$ was adjusted to RMB8.11: US$1.00 as of July 21, 2005. The People's Bank of China announces the closing price of a foreign currency such as US$ traded against RMB in the inter-bank foreign exchange market after the closing of the market on each working day, which will become the unified exchange rate for the trading against RMB on the following working day. The daily trading price of US$ against RMB in the inter-bank foreign exchange market is allowed to float within a band of 0.3% around the unified exchange rate published by the People's Bank of China. This quotation of exchange rates does not imply free convertibility of RMB to other foreign currencies. All foreign exchange transactions continue to take place either through the Bank of China or other banks authorized to buy and sell foreign currencies at the exchange rates quoted by the People's Bank of China. Approval of foreign currency payments by the Bank of China or other institutions required submitting a payment application form together with invoices, shipping documents and signed contracts.

Fair values of financial instruments

Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments", requires that the Company disclose estimated fair values of financial instruments.

The Company's financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables, advances to suppliers, accounts payable, other payables, tax payable, and related party advances and borrowings.

As of the balance sheet dates, the estimated fair values of the financial instruments were not materially different from their carrying values as presented on the balance sheet. This is attributed to the short maturities of the instruments and that interest rates on the borrowings approximate those that would have been available for loans of similar remaining maturity and risk profile at respective balance sheet dates.

Segment reporting

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 ("SFAS 131"), "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" requires use of the "management approach" model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company's management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company.

During the six months ended December 31, 2008, the Company was organized into two main business segments: fertilizer production (Techteam) and agricultural products production (Jintai). The following tables present a summary of operating information and quarter-end balance sheet information for the six and three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Statement of cash flows

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 95, "Statement of Cash Flows," cash flows from the Company's operations are calculated based upon the local currencies. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows may not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet.

Recent accounting pronouncements

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements”, which is an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin (“ARB”) No. 51.  This statement clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements.  This statement changes the way the consolidated income statement is presented, thus requiring consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both parent and the noncontrolling interest.  This statement is effective for the fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008.  Based on current conditions, the Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 160 to have a significant impact on its results of operations or financial position.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations.”  This statement replaces FASB Statement No. 141, “Business Combinations.” This statement retains the fundamental requirements in SFAS 141 that the acquisition method of accounting (which SFAS 141 called the purchase method) be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. This statement defines the acquirer as the entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in the business combination and establishes the acquisition date as the date that the acquirer achieves control. This statement requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date, with limited exceptions specified in the statement. This statement applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 160 to have a significant impact on its results of operations or financial position.

In March 2008, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. The new standard is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The new standard also improves transparency about the location and amounts of derivative instruments in an entity’s financial statements; how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133; and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect its financial position, financial performance and cash flows.

FASB Statement No. 161 achieves these improvements by requiring disclosure of the fair values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses in a tabular format. It also provides more information about an entity’s liquidity by requiring disclosure of derivative features that are credit risk–related. Finally, it requires cross-referencing within footnotes to enable financial statement users to locate important. Based on current conditions, the Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 161 to have a significant impact on its results of operations or financial position.

In May 2008, FASB issued SFASB No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The pronouncement mandates the GAAP hierarchy reside in the accounting literature as opposed to the audit literature. This has the practical impact of elevating FASB Statements of Financial Accounting Concepts in the GAAP hierarchy.  This pronouncement will become effective 60 days following SEC approval. The Company does not believe this pronouncement will impact its financial statements.

In May 2008, FASB issued SFASB No. 163, Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60. The scope of the statement is limited to financial guarantee insurance (and reinsurance) contracts. The pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2008. The Company does not believe this pronouncement will impact its financial statements.

NOTE 12 - OTHER INCOME (EXPENSES)

Other income (expenses) mainly consists of interest expense and subsidy income from government.

NOTE 13 - INCOME TAXES

The Company utilizes SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

The Company was subject to PRC Enterprise Income Tax at a rate of 33% on the net income. For the calendar year 2007, the Company enjoyed tax-free benefit status because it became a foreign invested company according to the PRC tax law.

Beginning January 1, 2008, in the People's Republic of China (PRC) the new Enterprise Income Tax (“EIT”) law will replace the existing laws for Domestic Enterprises (“DES”) and Foreign Invested Enterprises (“FIEs”). The new standard EIT rate of 25% will replace the 33% rate currently applicable to both DES and FIEs. The two years tax exemption and three years 50% tax reduction tax holiday for production-oriented FIEs will be eliminated. From January 1, 2008, TechTeam Jinong is subject to an income tax at a rate of 15%. Jintai has been exempt from paying income tax since its formation as it produces products which fall into the tax exemption list set out in the EIT. This exemption will last as long as the related EIT does not change.

NOTE 17– STOCK OPTIONS

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123-R, “Share-Based Payment”  (“SFAS No. 123-R”), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors, including stock options based on their fair values. SFAS No. 123-R supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”), which the Company previously followed in accounting for stock-based awards. In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (SAB 107) to provide guidance on SFAS No. 123-R. The Company has applied SAB 107 in its adoption of SFAS No. 123-R.

On January 31, 2008, the Company issued 123,000 stock options to its employees with an exercise price of $3.25 and term of three years.

Item2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes to those financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve significant risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, such as the slow-down of the global financial market and its impact on economic growth in general, the competition in the fertilizer industry and the impact of such competition on pricing, revenues and margins, the weather conditions in the areas where our customers are based, the cost of attracting and retaining highly skilled personnel, the prospects for future acquisitions, and the factors set forth elsewhere in this report, our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. Unless the context indicates otherwise, as used in the following discussion, "Company”, "we,” "us,” and "our,” refer to (i) China Green Agriculture, Inc. (“Green Nevada”, formerly known as Discovery Technologies, Inc.), a corporation incorporated in the State of Nevada; (ii) Green Agriculture Holding Corporation (“Green New Jersey”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Green Nevada incorporated in the State of New Jersey; (iii) Shaanxi TechTeam Jinong Humic Acid Product Co., Ltd. (“Techteam”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Green New Jersey organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”); and (vi) Xi’an Jintai Agriculture Technology Development Company (“Jintai”), wholly-owned subsidiary of Techteam in the PRC.

Overview

We, through our indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, Techteam and Jintai, have two business segments: (i) research, development, production and distribution of humic acid organic liquid compound fertilizer (conducted through Techteam); and (ii) development, production and distribution of agricultural products (conducted through Jintai), namely, top-grade fruits, vegetables, flowers and colored seedlings. The fertilizer business has been our main business which generated 70.6% and 73.0% of our total revenues in the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. In the six months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the fertilizer business has generated 79.2% and 76.1% of our total revenues, respectively.

Fertilizers can be organic (composed of organic matter), or inorganic (made of simple, inorganic chemicals or minerals). Inorganic fertilizers or chemical fertilizers generally may lead to ecosystem degradation. Organic compound fertilizer, the fertilizer we produce, comprises a balance of both organic and inorganic substances, thereby combining the speedy effectiveness of chemical fertilizers with the environmental benefits of the organic fertilizers.

We employ a multi-tiered product strategy in which we tailor our products to different needs and preferences of the different geographic regions across China. Each region has varying climate and soil conditions and grows different crops which require fertilizer which addresses local conditions. For example, in Southern and Eastern China, farmers are able to grow high margin crops such as fruits and seasonal vegetables where climate and rainfall permits, hence they can gain more return on investment from more expensive, specialized fertilizers, whereas in Northwest areas, farmers’ low profit margin crops disincentivize investment in fertilizer requiring that we market a more broad spectrum, low cost fertilizer.

Currently, we sell our products through a network of about 494 regional distributors covering 27 provinces in China. Roughly 20 million farmers are using our fertilizer products. We sold approximately 3,065 and 1,611 metric tons of our fertilizer products for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. In the six months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, we sold approximately 7,435 and 4,901 metric tons of our fertilizer products respectively.

We have developed over 125 different fertilizer products, including six new products introduced to the market in the six months ended December 31, 2008. The leading five provinces by revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2008 are Shannxi (21.6%), Shandong (7.1%), Xinjiang (5.0%), Fujian (5.0%) and Guangdong (4.7%), in which we generated a total of $3,039,790 revenues, or approximately 43.4% of our total fertilizer sales from the sale of our fertilizer products for the quarter ended December 31, 2008. Our top five fertilizer products by revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2008 generated a total of approximately $1,189,097 or 24.1% of the total fertilizer sales during that period. Our top five fertilizer products by revenue for the six months ended December 31, 2008 generated a total of approximately $3,293,380 or 26.2% of the total fertilizer sales during that period.

We also export our humic acid organic liquid compound fertilizer to some foreign countries, including India, Ecuador, Pakistan and Lebanon through contracted distributors. Total revenues from exported fertilizer products currently account for approximately 0.3% of fertilizer sales for the three months ended December 31, 2008.

We conduct our research and development activities through our wholly owned subsidiary, Jintai, which tests new fertilizers and grows high quality flowers, vegetables and seedlings for commercial sales.

Recent Development

During the three months ended December 31, 2008, we launched two new fertilizer products under the Company’s high-end brand, Techteam. They generated approximately $366,161, or 7.4% of the revenues from our fertilizer products sold for the quarter ended December 31, 2008.

At December 31, 2008, we have completed the upgrades to our production facility, which will enable the Company to produce up to 15,000 metric tons of Humic Acid liquid fertilizer. We are constructing new production facilities in order to increase our annual fertilizer production capacity from the current 15,000 metric tons to 50,000 metric tons by using approximately $13 million of the net proceeds we received in the private placement consummated in December 2007 (the “Private Placement”). We anticipate our new production lines to commence actual production in August 2009.

Net Sales

Total net sales for the three months ended December 31, 2008 increased $3,243,984, or 86.4%, from $3,756,142 for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The increase was the result of an increase in sales volume due to expansion of our Techteam’s sales network, the launch of new products and an increase of demand for Jintai’s fruit, flower and vegetable products during the holiday seasons.

Techteam’s net sales, which accounted for 70.6% of total net sales, were driven by the sales of humic acid organic liquid compound fertilizers. For the three months ended December 31, 2008, Techteam’s net sales increased $2,201,462, or 80.2%, to $4,945,026 from $2,743,564 for the three months ended December 31, 2007. Sales volume increased 61.2% to 2,688 tons for the three months ended December 31, 2008 from 1,667 tons for the three months ended December 31, 2007.

Jintai’s net sales, which include sales of agricultural products, namely top-grade fruits, vegetables, flowers and colored seedlings by using our existing and new fertilizers, increased $1,042,522, or 103.0%, to $2,055,100 for the three months ended December 31, 2008 from $1,012,578 for the same period in 2007. This increase was largely due to the strong demand for our various decorative flowers, such as butterfly orchids, big orchids and red leaf flowers during the holiday seasons. The sales for these three products accounted for 67.7% of Jintai’s sales for the three months ended December 31, 2008.

Cost of Goods Sold

Total cost of goods sold for the three months ended December 31, 2008 increased $1,280,086, or 79.0%, to $2,901,306 compared to that for the three months ended December 31, 2007.

Cost of goods sold by Techteam for the three months ended December 31, 2008 increased $689,669, or 57.9%, to $1,880,375 compared to that for the same period in 2007. This increase was primarily due to increased sales. As a percentage of total net sales, cost of goods sold by Techteam approximated 26.9% and 31.7% for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Cost of goods sold by Jintai increased $590,416, or 137.1%, to $1,020,930 for the three months ended December 31, 2008 compared to that for the three months ended December 31, 2007. This increase was partly due to the increases in raw materials and allocated overhead due to the addition of new machinery and partly due to the weakening dollar. As a percentage of total net sales, cost of goods sold by Jintai approximated 14.6% and 11.5% for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Gross Profit

Total gross profit for the three months ended December 31, 2008 increased $1,963,897, or 92%, to $4,098,820 compared to $2,134,923 for the three months ended December 31, 2007. Gross profit margin approximated 58.6% and 56.8% for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Gross profit from Techteam increased $1,511,794, or 97.4%, to $3,064,651 for the three months ended December 31, 2008 from $1,552,859 for the three months ended December 31, 2007. Gross profit margin from Techteam sales approximated 62.0% and 56.6% for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Gross profit from Jintai increased $452,105, or 77.7% for the three months ended December 31, 2008, to $1,034,169 compared to $582,064 for the three months ended December 31, 2007.

Selling expenses consist primarily of salaries of sales personnel, advertising and promotion expenses, freight charges and related compensation. Selling expenses were $366,161, or 5.2% of net sales for the three months ended December 31, 2008 as compared to $320,133, or 8.5% of net sales for the three months ended December 31, 2007, an increase of $46,028, or approximately 14.4%. Most of this increase was due to higher travel and lodging expenses for our sales representatives and higher salaries from our expanded sales force.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consisted primarily of rental expenses, related salaries, business development, depreciation and travel expenses incurred by our general and administrative departments and legal and professional expenses. General and administrative expenses were $586,645, or 8.4% of net sales for the three months ended December 31, 2008, as compared to $1,023,345, or 27.2% for the three months ended December 31, 2007, a decrease of $436,700. The decrease was largely attributable to the one time expenses incurred in the 2007 calendar year associated with the reverse merger and the Private Placement in the US.

Total Other Income (Expenses)

Total other income (expenses) consisted of subsidy income from the PRC government, interest income, interest expenses and bank charges. Total other expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 were $125,485 and $61,420, respectively. We received an allowance income of $29,691 in the three months ended December 31, 2007 due to a government project. This did not happen in the same period in 2008. In addition, we received higher interest income in the three months ended December 31, 2007 due to higher savings.

Income Taxes

Techteam is subject to a preferred tax rate of 15% as a result of Techteam’s operation being classified as a High-Tech project under the new PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law (“EIT”) effective on January 1, 2008. Prior to that, Techteam enjoyed an income tax holiday until December 31, 2007, due to its status as a wholly foreign owned enterprise (“WFOE”) and the PRC regulations provided such a tax incentive through December 31, 2007. Therefore, Techteam incurred income tax expenses of $362,676 for the three months ended December 31, 2008, compared to $0 for the same period in the prior year.

Jintai has been exempt from paying income tax since its formation as it produces products which fall into the tax exemption list set out in the EIT. This exemption will last as long as the related EIT does not change.

Net Income

Our net income was $2,657,852 for the three months ended December 31, 2008, an increase of $1,927,827 or 264.1% from $730,025 for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The increase in gross profit was slightly offset by income taxes which were previously exempted. Net income as a percentage of total net sales approximated 38.0% and 19.4% for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008 COMPARED WITH SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2007.

Net Sales

Total net sales for the six months ended December 31, 2008 increased $4,932,965, or 45.1%, from $10,947,163 for the six months ended December 31, 2007. The increase was attributable to an increase of $4,238,206 in sales by Techteam and an increase of $694,759 in sales by Jintai.

Techteam’s net sales, which accounted for 79.2% of total net sales, were driven by the sales of humic acid organic liquid compound fertilizers. For the six months ended December 31, 2008, Techteam’s net sales increased $4,238,206, or 50.9%, to $12,570,527 from $8,332,321 for the six months ended December 31, 2007. Sales volume increased 38.8% to 6,802 tons for the six months ended December 31, 2008 from 4,901 tons for the six months ended December 31, 2007.

Jintai’s net sales increased $694,759, or 26.6%, to $3,309,601 for the six months ended December 31, 2008 from $2,614,842 for the same period in 2007. This increase was largely due to the strong demand for our various decorative flowers, such as butterfly orchids, big orchids and red leaf flowers during the holiday seasons. The sales for these three products accounted for 73.1% of Jintai’s sales for the six months ended December 31, 2008.

Cost of Goods Sold

Total cost of goods sold for the six months ended December 31, 2008 increased $2,437.218, or 55.5%, to $6,832,199 compared to that for the six months ended December 31, 2007.

Cost of goods sold by Techteam for the six months ended December 31, 2008 increased $1,777,446, or 53.4%, to $5,106,321 compared to that for the same period in 2007. This increase was primarily due to the increased sales. As a percentage of total net sales, cost of goods sold by Techteam approximated 32.2% and 30.4% for the six months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Cost of goods sold by Jintai increased $659,770, or 61.9%, to $1,725,877 for the six months ended December 31, 2008 compared to that for the six months ended December 31, 2007. This increase was primarily due to the increase in our sales volume, while the cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales for the six months ended December 31, 2008 remains in the similar level as compared to that of the same period in 2007.

Gross Profit

Total gross profit for the six months ended December 31, 2008 increased $2,495,747, or 38.1%, to $9,047,929 compared to $6,552,182 for the six months ended December 31, 2007. Gross profit margin approximated 57% and 59.9% for the six months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Gross profit from Techteam increased $2,460,759, or 49.2%, to $7,464,205 for the six months ended December 31, 2008 from $5,003,446 for the six months ended December 31, 2007. Gross profit margin from Techteam sales approximated 59.4% and 60.0% for the six months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Gross profit from Jintai increased $34,989, or 2.3% for the six months ended December 31, 2008, to $1,583,724 compared to $1,548,735 for the six months ended December 31, 2007. Gross profit margin from Jintai sales approximated 47.9% and 59.2% for the six months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Selling Expenses

Selling expenses consist primarily of salaries of sales personnel, advertising and promotion expenses, freight charges and related compensation.

Most of this increase was due to higher travel and salary expenses for our expended sales force. However, as a percentage of net sales, the selling expenses accounted for a less percentage of net sales for the six months ended December 31, 2008 as compared to the same period in the prior year.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consisted primarily of rental expenses, related salaries, business development, depreciation and travel expenses incurred by our general and administrative departments and legal and professional expenses.

This was mainly attributed to the internal cost control in both US and China operations.

Total Other Income (Expenses)

Total other income (expenses) consisted of subsidy income from the PRC government, interest income, interest expenses and bank charges. Total other expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 were $301,679 and $144,585, respectively. The increase in total other expenses was due to the carry over from the quarter ended June 30, 2008 of part of the liquidated damages the Company incurred arising from its contractual obligations to the Private Placement investors for the late effectiveness of our registration statement.

Income Taxes

Techteam incurred income tax expenses of $984,159 for the six months ended December 31, 2008, compared to $0 for the same period in the prior year.

As set forth above, Jintai is exempt from paying income tax.

Net Income

Our net income was $6,155,780 for the six months ended December 31, 2008, an increase of $1,393,983 or 29.3% from $4,761,797 for the six months ended December 31, 2007. The increase was mainly a result of our increased net sales. Net income as a percentage of total net sales approximated 38.8% and 43.5% for the six months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Discussion of Segment Profitability Measures

Our business consists of two segments – the sales of fertilizer products through Techteam and the sales of agricultural products through Jintai. Each of the segments prepares its own quarterly and annual projections with regard to marketing, research and development, production and sales along with financial budgets.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity include cash from operations, borrowings from local commercial banks and proceeds from our December 2007 Private Placement.

As of December 31, 2008, cash and cash equivalents were $15,079,265, a decrease of $1,533,151 from $16,612,416 as of June 30, 2008, primarily due to tax payments of $2,485,151. This does not include the restricted cash from our escrow account. Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement and Holdback Escrow Agreement by and among the Company and the investors in the Private Placement, a total of $250,000 cash from the Private Placement proceeds was escrowed for investor relations purposes. The funds are released to the Company on a monthly basis to pay invoices issued by the Company’s investor relations firm. As of December 31, 2008, there was $134,478 left in the escrow account.

Based on our current operating plan, we anticipate spending approximately $2.5 million in our third fiscal quarter and approximately $3 million in our fourth fiscal quarter on the new production facilities. We believe that existing cash and cash equivalents balances, cash forecasted by management to be generated by operations and borrowings from existing credit facilities will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital requirements for at least the next 12 months. However, if events or circumstances occur such that we do not meet our operating plan as expected, we may be required to seek additional capital and/or reduce certain discretionary spending, which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to achieve our business objectives. We may seek additional financing, which may include debt and/or equity financing. There can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. Any equity financing may result in dilution to existing stockholders and any debt financing may include restrictive covenants.

The decrease was mainly due to an increase in inventory, advances to suppliers and a decrease in tax payables.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities in the six months ended December 31, 2008 was $1,925,229, mainly due to the upgrades to the existing production line and additions made for our new production line.

Accounts Receivable

Our accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, was $4,540,866 as of December 31, 2008, compared to $3,590,552 as of June 30, 2008, an increase of $950,314. The increase is mainly to due our increased sales. Compared to accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts as of September 30, 2008, the balance decreased $1,799,280.

Our allowance for doubtful accounts was $85,780 as of December 31, 2008 compared with $96,065 as of June 30, 2008, a decrease of $10,285 due to improvements we made to collect accounts receivable amounts that were greater than 90 days past due.

Inventories

We had inventory of $7,294,456 as of December 31, 2008 as compared to $3,988,979 as of June 30, 2008, an increase of $3,305,477. This increase was mainly due to the increased purchase of raw materials and packaging materials at Techteam for higher production demands in the next quarter and increased work in progress at Jintai to accommodate the demands during the Chinese New Year.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. Our financial statements reflect the selection and application of accounting policies which require management to make significant estimates and judgments. See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements, “Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.” We believe that the following paragraphs reflect the more critical accounting policies that currently affect our financial condition and results of operations:

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. However, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Revenue recognition

Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as unearned revenue.

The Company's revenue consists of invoiced value of goods, net of a value-added tax (VAT). No product return or sales discount allowance is made as products delivered and accepted by customers are normally not returnable and sales discounts are normally not granted after products are delivered.

Cash and cash equivalents

For statement of cash flows purposes, the Company considers all cash on hand and in banks, certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents.

Accounts receivable

The Company's policy is to maintain reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. Any accounts receivable that is outstanding for more than three months will be accounted as allowance for bad debts.

Segment reporting

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 ("SFAS 131"), "Disclosure About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" requires use of the "management approach" model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company's management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company.

During the three months ended December 31, 2008, the Company was organized into two main business segments: produce fertilizer (Techteam) and agricultural products (Jintai).

Item 4T.             Controls and Procedures
 
(a)            Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. At the conclusion of the period ended December 31, 2008 we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), Rules 13a-15e and 15d-15e). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and adequately designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms and that such information was accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, in a manner that allowed for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b)            Changes in internal controls. During the period covered by this report, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
