This report contains forward looking statements within the meaning of Section
27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company's actual results could differ

Commission, general economic conditions, and changes in the assumptions used in
making such forward looking statements.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Material Changes in Results of Operations
Three Months Ended March 31, 2000Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31,
1999.
Net Sales. Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2000 increased by
US$2,000 or 6.67% to US$32,000 from US$30,000 for the three months ended March
31, 1999. This increase is attributable to a slight increase in the sales of
liquid fertilizers. No granular fertilizers were sold during the three months
ended March 31, 2000.
Gross Profits. Gross profits for the three months ended March 31, 2000 decreased
by US$6,000 or 40% to US$9,000 from US$15,000 for the same period last year.
This decrease is attributable to a lack of granular fertilizer sales on which
there is a higher gross profit margin. Gross profit as a percent of sales was
28.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2000, compared to 50% for the
corresponding period of the prior year.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2000 increased by
US$278,000 or 94.5% to US$572,000 from US$294,000 for the corresponding period
of the prior year. The increase is attributable to an increase in the promotion
expenses for the Kunming Expo 99 and other related administrative expenses in
expectation of the production of 100,000 MT of organic granules.
Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense, net for the three months ended March
31, 2000 increased by US$13,000 or 25% to US$65,000 from US$52,000 for the
corresponding period of the prior year. This increase in interest expense
reflects increased borrowings by the Company.
Net Loss. The net loss after accounting for the minority interest for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 was US$545,000 compared with net loss of US$246,000
for the corresponding period of the prior year. The increase in the net loss is
attributable to a reduced gross profit, higher selling, general and
administrative expenses and higher interest charges.
Changes in Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
For the past twelve months, the Company has funded its operations and
capital requirements with loans from the parent company, its PRC joint-venture
partner and a bank loan. As of March 31, 2000, the Company had cash of
US$2,629,000 but a working capital deficit of $4,974,000. This compares with
cash of US$19,000 and a working capital deficit of US$4,630,000 as of December
31, 1999.
Net cash used in operating activities increased to US$695,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 from US$441,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1999. This increase resulted from an increase in the net operating loss and a
decrease in operating liabilities which were partially offset by a decrease in
operating assets.

<PAGE>
Net cash provided by investing activities increased to US$405,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 from US$64,000 used in investing activities
for the three month ended March 31, 1999. This increase in cash flows from
investing activities is attributable to reduced expenditures for machinery and
equipment and repayment of funds from a related party.
Net cash provided by financing activities increased to US$2,911,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 from US$717,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1999. This increase is principally attributable to an increase in
short term borrowings and in non current payables which was partially offset by
repayment of a shareholder loan.
Subsequent to the end of the calendar quarter, the Company received the
proceeds from a US$10 million dollar loan. With the proceeds of this loan, the
Company has sufficient operations to fund its operations and execute its
business plan for the next twelve months.
