Item 1.Financial Statements 

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders Yasheng Group

Redwood City, California

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Yasheng Group and subsidiaries (the “Corporation”) as of September 30, 2011, and the related condensed consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the three month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation’s management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to such condensed consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Yasheng Group and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended and in our report dated February 25, 2011 we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

(d) Use of estimates

The Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon its consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

(e) Revenue recognition

We enter into contracts to sell our products and frequently enter into sales arrangements with customers that contain multiple elements or deliverables. For our main business was run in China, we use general revenue recognition accounting guidance under PRC GAAP for our products. There four standards revenue recognition need to meet:

1. The entity has transferred the risks and rewards of the ownership about the goods to the customers. To judge whether the main risk and rewards had been transferred depends on different case:  (1) In most of case, the risk and rewards of the ownership would be transferred along with the products and its title; (2) But sometimes the company had delivered the goods, the risk and rewards were not transferred;(3) Sometimes the risk and rewards of the ownership had been transferred but the goods hasn’t been delivered.  We should recognize the revenue at the point the main risk and rewards of the ownership about the goods has been transferred.

2.  The Entity neither retain the management right relate to the ownership of the goods, nor keep real control right over the sold goods. The revenue recognition was forbidden when the company has kept this kind of right or controls, even though the risk and reward right of the ownership about the goods has been transferred. It was not subjects to this restriction when the company retained the management right on the goods was not relate to the ownership.

3.  The rewards may well flow into the entity.  If the probability of the collection was limited, the revenue should not be recognized even all the up two standards were met.

4. The revenue amount measurement is reliable, the relate cost can be measured reliably.

We report revenue net of any revenue-based taxes assessed by governmental authorities that are imposed on and concurrent with specific revenue-producing transactions.

(f) Shipping and handling costs

The Company records outward freight, purchasing and receiving costs in selling expenses; inspection costs and warehousing costs are recorded as general and administrative expenses.

(g) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits held by banks, and securities with maturities of three months or less. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are composed primarily of investments in money market accounts stated at cost, which approximates fair value.

(h) Inventories

Inventories are recorded using the weighted average method and are valued at the lower of cost or market.

(i) Accounts receivable, net

The carrying amount of accounts receivable is reduced by a valuation allowance that reflects the Company’s best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected. In addition to reviewing delinquent accounts receivable, the Company considers many factors in estimating its general allowance, including aging analysis, historical bad debt records, customer credit analysis and any specific known troubled accounts.

(j) Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Amortization of leasehold improvements is calculated on a straight-line basis over the life of the asset or the term of the lease, whichever is shorter. Major renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreciated; maintenance and repairs that do not extend the life of the respective assets are charged to expense as incurred. Upon disposal of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in income. Depreciation related to property and equipment used in production is reported in cost of sales. Property and equipment are depreciated over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Buildings and improvements  20 - 40 years

Farming facilities  10 years

Machinery and equipment  7 years

Transportation and other facilities  3 - 15 years

Long-term assets of the Company are reviewed annually to assess whether the carrying value has become impaired, according to the guidelines established in Statement of Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment of Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." The Company also evaluates the periods of amortization to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives. No impairment of assets was recorded in the periods reported.

	09/30/2011		12/31/2010
Buildings and improvements	$	99,323,501	$	95,277,965
Farming facilities		90,651,486		86,988,378
Machinery and equipment		11,580,476		11,133,849
Transportation		289,157,988		277,371,758
Total		490,713,450		470,771,950
Less: Accumulated Depreciation and amortization		76,102,598		66,386,424
Net	$	414,610,852	$	404,385,526

(k) Intangible assets

Intangible assets consist of land use rights and are recorded at cost. Under PRC’s current property rights regime, use rights for specified periods (e.g., 40 to 70 years) can be obtained from the state through the up-front payment of land use fees. The fees are determined by the location, type and density of the proposed development. This separation of land ownership and use rights allows the trading of land use rights while maintaining state ownership of land. The Company has over 250,000 acres of agriculture land that are utilized for grazing, cultivation, and reclamation, of which 50,000 acres are under cultivation using the latest scientific technologies to produce a wide variety of agricultural products.

(l) Impairment of long-lived assets

The carrying amounts of long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is evaluated by a comparison of the carrying amount of assets to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.

(m) Investments

Investments consist primarily of less than 20% equity positions in non-marketable securities and are recorded at lower of cost or market.

(n) Foreign currency translation

The accompanying financial statements are presented in United States (US) dollars. The functional currency is the Renminbi (“RMB”). The financial statements are translated into US dollars from RMB at year-end exchange rates for assets and liabilities, and weighed average exchange rates for revenues and expenses. Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred.

Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency translation are recorded in a separate component of shareholders’ equity. Foreign currency translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity for the years presented.

RMB is not freely convertible into the currency of other nations. All such exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. There is no guarantee the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US dollars at rates used in translation.

(o) Income taxes

As an agricultural enterprise, the Company and all of its agricultural subsidiaries are exempted from enterprise income taxes with approval from the Gansu Provincial Bureau of Local Taxation. The only non-agricultural subsidiary, Baiyin Cement Plant, has suffered net loss for the years shown and therefore has no applicable taxable income. Because of the uncertainty of future profits, no deferred tax assets have been set up at this time.

(p) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the year. The Company has no potentially dilutive shares for the periods shown.

(q) Economic and Political Risks

The Company faces a number of risks and challenges as a result of having primary operations and markets in the PRC. Changing political climates in the PRC could have a significant effect on the Company's business.

(r) Advertising expense

The Company records advertising expenses in the period incurred.

(s) Comprehensive income

Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a company during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances excluding transactions resulting from investments from owners and distributions to owners. Accumulated other comprehensive income, as presented on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, consists of mainly the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment.

(t) Recently issued accounting standards

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance to amend the disclosure requirements related to recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The guidance requires new disclosures on the transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 (quoted prices in active market for identical assets or liabilities) and Level 2 (significant other observable inputs) of the fair value measurement hierarchy, including the reasons and the timing of the transfers. Additionally, the guidance requires a roll forward of activities on purchases, sales, issuance, and settlements of the assets and liabilities measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 fair value measurements). The guidance became effective for us with the reporting period beginning January 1, 2010, except for the disclosure on the roll forward activities for Level 3 fair value measurements, which become effective for us with the reporting period beginning July 1, 2011. Other than requiring additional disclosures, adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements. See Note 6 – Fair Value Measurements.

On July 1, 2009, we adopted guidance issued by the FASB on business combinations. The guidance retains the fundamental requirements that the acquisition method of accounting (previously referred to as the purchase method of accounting) be used for all business combinations, but requires a number of changes, including changes in the way assets and liabilities are recognized and measured as a result of business combinations. It also requires the capitalization of in-process research and development at fair value and requires the expensing of acquisition-related costs as incurred. We have applied this guidance to business combinations completed since July 1, 2009 which have been none.

On July 1, 2009, we adopted guidance issued by the FASB that changes the accounting and reporting for non-controlling interests. Non-controlling interests are to be reported as a component of equity separate from the parent’s equity, and purchases or sales of equity interests that do not result in a change in control are to be accounted for as equity transactions. In addition, net income attributable to a non-controlling interest is to be included in net income and, upon a loss of control, the interest sold, as well as any interest retained, is to be recorded at fair value with any gain or loss recognized in net income. Adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

On July 1, 2009, we adopted guidance on fair value measurement for nonfinancial assets and liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). Adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In October 2009, the FASB issued guidance on revenue recognition that will become effective for us beginning July 1, 2010. Under the new guidance on arrangements that include software elements, tangible products that have software components that are essential to the functionality of the tangible product will no longer be within the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance, and software-enabled products will now be subject to other relevant revenue recognition guidance. Additionally, the FASB issued guidance on revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables that are outside the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance. Under the new guidance, when vendor specific objective evidence or third party evidence for deliverables in an arrangement cannot be determined, a best estimate of the selling price is required to separate deliverables and allocate arrangement consideration using the relative selling price method. The new guidance includes new disclosure requirements on how the application of the relative selling price method affects the timing and amount of revenue recognition. We believe adoption of this new guidance will not have a material impact on our financial statements.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - continued

In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance on the consolidation of variable interest entities, which is effective for us beginning July 1, 2010. The new guidance requires revised evaluations of whether entities represent variable interest entities, ongoing assessments of control over such entities, and additional disclosures for variable interests. We believe adoption of this new guidance will not have a material impact on our financial statements.

(u) Value added tax (VAT)

Value added tax is a consumption tax levied on value added. While the standard VAT rate in PRC is 17%, the Company's agricultural subsidiaries enjoy a reduced VAT rate of 4%.

3. Inventories

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The following is a discussion of our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and capital resources. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and with our annual report for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Some of the statements under "Description of Business," "Risk Factors," "Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation," and elsewhere in this Report and in the Company's periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission constitute forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, significant uncertainties and other factors what may cause actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward- looking statements. Such factors include, among other things, those listed under "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this Report.

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may," "will," "should," "could," "intends," "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "predicts," "potential" or "continue" or the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology.

The forward-looking statements herein are based on current expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that the Company will obtain or have access to adequate financing for each successive phase of its growth, that there will be no material adverse competitive or technological change in condition of the Company's business, that the Company's President and other significant employees will remain employed as such by the Company, and that there will be no material adverse change in the Company's operations, business or governmental regulation affecting the Company. The foregoing assumptions are based on judgments with respect to, among other things, further economic, competitive and market conditions, and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the Company's control.

Although management believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, management cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Moreover, neither management nor any other persons assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of such statements.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - continued

The functional currency for the Company is the RMB which is translated into US Dollars for financial reporting purposes. The average exchange rates for the periods presented remained generally unchanged and were 6.3549 RMB to 1 USD for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 6.7011RMB to 1 USD for the three months ended September, 2010.

Net Sales. Sales are generated primarily from our farming operations and related side line products in China. Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2011 increased marginally by $42 million, or 17.9% to $277.8 million as compared to $235.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010. These comparisons show that our sales in the third quarter have grown more significantly than the same period in 2010. Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 increased marginally by $58 million, or 9.8% to $653.5 million as compared to $595.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. These comparisons show that our sales in the third quarter and first half of 2011 have grown more significantly than the same period in 2010. The overall increase in net sales was primarily a result of the strong harvest in the third quarter and the rising prices of agricultural products attributable to increasing demand in China. We also benefited from our expanded marketing network which covers more provinces, with more distributors and direct clients.

Factors of increased sales this fall:

1) Food production prices on the global market were impacted by extreme weather, as the drought of 2011 spread throughout the world including France, Germany, China and the United States, with prices rising internationally. Geographically, Yasheng is located in the mountain areas of Gansu, Zhangye, Jiuquan and other regions, with large areas of drip irrigation equipment and systems which rely on snowfall water from the Qilian Mountains, making the sub-areas of agricultural land unaffected by the drought, while the autumn harvest of grain, fruits, vegetable, etc. sales price increased.

2) Increasing rigidity of the demand for food. The World Bank announced that from October 2010 to January 2011, global food prices rose by 15%

3) Depreciation of the dollar. Food, oil and other raw materials in the international market are priced in U.S. dollars. The average exchange rates for the periods presented were 6.3549 RMB to 1 USD for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 6.7011RMB to 1 USD for the three months ended September, 2010; currency proportion was down by 5%.

Cost of Goods Sold. Our cost of goods sold consists of the direct production costs such as raw materials, direct labor, overhead and miscellaneous other supplies.. Cost of goods sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 increased by a marginal $49.9 millionor 9.6%, to $571.7 million from $521.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Costs were in line with sales due to continued heightened focus on cost control exercised throughout production, the increase in cost is mainly due to the growth in the net sales.  

Gross Profit and Gross Margin. Our gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2011 increased $6.69 million or 19.81% to $40.5 million from $33.8million for the three months ended September 30, 2010. Our gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 increased $8.5 million or 11.5% to $81.8 million from

$73.4million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The gross margin was slightly increasing 0.2pct from Jan-Sep 2010. The improved margin was primarily a result of the growth in the net sales.

Sales and Marketing Expenses. Our sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended Sept 30, 2011 increased $61.333 or 13.9% to $501.943 as compared to $440.610 in the prior three months ended September 30, 2010. Our sales and marketing expenses for the nine months ended Sept 30 31, 2011 increased $91,000 or 8.3% to $1.2 million as compared to $1.1 million in the prior nine months ended September 30, 2010.The increase in the expenses is primarily due to more promotional activities held during the autumn harvest season.

General and Administrative Expenses. Our general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 increased $152,773 or 15.89% to $1,114,223 from $961,450 for the three months ended September 30, 2010. Our general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 increased $224,000 or 8.8% to $2.8 million from $2.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.The increase in the expenses primarily due to the price hike related to the general economics in China.

Interest Expenses and Other Income. Our interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2011 increased $39,292 or 7.43% to $568,067 as compared to $528,775 in the prior three months ended September 30, 2010. Our other income for the three months ended September 30, 2011 decreased $23,897 or 11.46% to $184,616 as compared to $208,513 in the prior three months ended September 30, 2011. Our interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 increased $87,000or 4.97% to $1,839,000 as compared to $1,752,000 in the prior nine months ended September 30, 2010. Our other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 decreased $58,000 or 9.18% to $690,000 as compared to $632,000 in the prior nine months ended September 30, 2011

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2011, we had cash and cash equivalents of $10.6 million and working capital of $152.6 million. This compared to cash and cash equivalents of $10.1 million and working capital of $125.5 million as of December 31, 2010. The following table provides information about our net cash flows for the operating results presented in this report (amounts in thousands of USD).

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2011		2010
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	65,465	$	48,317
Net cash used in investing activities		(57,908)		(26,852)
Net cash used in financing activities		(8,481)		(20,250)
Effect of foreign currency translation on cash and cash equivalents		1,399		737
Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of the period		10,117		8,010
Cash and cash equivalents at end of period		10,591		9,962

Net cash provided by operating activities was $65.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $48.3 million for the nine months ended Sep 30, 2010. Net cash used in investing activities was 57.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $26.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Net cash used in financing activities was $8.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared with $20.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

We believe our cash on hand and cash flows from operations will meet our expected capital expenditures and working capital needs for the next 12 months. In addition, we may, in the future, require additional cash resources due to changed business conditions, implementation of our strategy to expand our production capacity or other investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue. If our own financial resources are insufficient to satisfy our capital requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain additional credit facilities. The sale of additional equity securities could result in dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financial covenants that would restrict our operations. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any failure by us to raise additional funds on terms favorable to us, or at all, could limit our ability to expand our business operations and could harm our overall business prospects.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of September, 2011 and for the three months then ended, we were not party to transactions, obligations or relationships that could be considered off-balance sheet arrangements and we do not have off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to an investor in our securities.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - continued

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The additional discussion below addresses our more significant judgments.

Impairment of long-lived assets. Long-lived assets, except goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment when circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets to future net cash flows estimated by our management to be generated by such assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of by sale are recorded as held for sale at the lower of carrying value or estimated net realizable value.

All land in the PRC is owned by the PRC government. The government in the PRC, according to the relevant PRC law, may sell the right to use the land for a specific period of time. Thus, all of our land purchases in the PRC are considered to be leasehold land and are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and any recognized impairment loss.

Property, plant and equipment, net. Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. The principal estimated useful lives generally are: buildings – 20 years; leasehold improvement – 10 years; machinery - 10 years; furniture, fixtures and office equipment – 5 years; motor vehicle – 5 years. During the idle period of the plant, depreciation is treated as current-period charges, which is charged directly to general and administrative expense.

New Accounting Standards

See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding other new accounting standards that could affect us.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Our international sales accounted for very little of our net sales in the first quarter of 2011.  As a result, we have exposure to foreign exchange risk with respect to a minor portion of our sales.  Fluctuations in exchange rates, particularly in the U.S. dollar to Chinese yuan (RMB) exchange rate, do not affect materially affect our gross and net profit margins even though they could result in foreign exchange and operating losses.

Our primary foreign currency exposures are transaction, cash flow and translation:

Transaction Exposure:  We have certain asset and liabilities, primarily receivables, investments and accounts payable that are denominated in currencies other than the relevant entity's functional currency.  In certain circumstances, changes in the functional currency value of these assets and liabilities create fluctuations in our reported consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.  We may enter into foreign exchange forward contracts or other instruments to minimize the short-term foreign currency fluctuations on such assets and liabilities.  The gains and losses on the foreign forward contracts offset the transaction gains and losses on certain foreign currency receivables, investments and payables recognized in earnings.

Cash Flow Exposure:  We have forecasted future cash flows, including revenues and expenses, denominated in currencies other than the relevant entity's functional currency.  Our primary cash flow exposures include future customer collections and vendor payments.

Earnings Translation Exposure:  Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates do not create volatility in our reported results of operations because we are required to consolidate the financial statement of all of our subsidiaries and most of our sales are in China.  We decide to purchase forward exchange contracts or other instruments to offset the impact of currency fluctuations.  Such contracts would be marked-to-market on a monthly basis and any unrealized gain or loss would be reported in interest and other income, net.  We do not edge translation exposure at this time but may do so in the future.

19

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk - continued

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk because some of our distributors and other vendees depend on debt financing to purchase our products and some of our subsidiaries depend on debt financing to construct facilities and to improve the farms.  Although the useful life of our farm products is short, our distributors and vendees still have to pay the entire cost of their purchases at the time of shipment.  As a result, many of our distributors and vendees rely on debt financing to fund their up-front cash flow needs and expenditures.  An increase in interest rates could make it difficult for our distributors and vendee to secure the financings necessary to purchase, hold and resell our products, and thus lower and postpone demand for our products and reduce our net sales.

Commodity Risk

We are exposed to price risks associated with raw material purchases and sales into the domestic and foreign commodities markets.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

(a)      Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure (i) that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and (ii) that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of September, 2011 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 such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)). 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 at the reasonable assurance level.

It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

(b)     Changes in internal controls. During the period covered by this report, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a)Accounting standards

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis to reflect the financial position and results of operations of the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

(b)Fiscal year

The Company’s fiscal year ends on the 31st of December of each calendar year.

(c)Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

(d)Use of estimates

The Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon its consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

(e)Revenue recognition

We enter into contracts to sell our products and frequently enter into sales arrangements with customers that contain multiple elements or deliverables. For our main business was run in China, we use general revenue recognition accounting guidance under PRC GAAP for our products. There four standards revenue recognition need to meet:

1. The entity has transferred the risks and rewards of the ownership about the goods to the customers. To judge whether the main risk and rewards had been transferred depends on different case: (1) In most of case, the risk and rewards of the ownership would be transferred along with the products and its title; (2) But sometimes the company had delivered the goods, the risk and rewards were not transferred;(3) Sometimes the risk and rewards of the ownership had been transferred but the goods hasn’t been delivered. We should recognize the revenue at the point the main risk and rewards of the ownership about the goods has been transferred.

2. The Entity neither retain the management right relate to the ownership of the goods, nor keep real control right over the sold goods. The revenue recognition was forbidden when the company has kept this kind of right or controls, even though the risk and reward right of the ownership about the goods has been transferred. It was not subjects to this restriction when the company retained the management right on the goods was not relate to the ownership.

3. The rewards may well flow into the entity. If the probability of the collection was limited, the revenue should not be recognized even all the up two standards were met.

4. The revenue amount measurement is reliable, the relate cost can be measured reliably.

We report revenue net of any revenue-based taxes assessed by governmental authorities that are imposed on and concurrent with specific revenue-producing transactions.

(f)Shipping and handling costs

The Company records outward freight, purchasing and receiving costs in selling expenses; inspection costs and warehousing costs are recorded as general and administrative expenses.

(g)Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits held by banks, and securities with maturities of three months or less. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are composed primarily of investments in money market accounts stated at cost, which approximates fair value.

(h)Inventories

Inventories are recorded using the weighted average method and are valued at the lower of cost or market.

(i)Accounts receivable, net

The carrying amount of accounts receivable is reduced by a valuation allowance that reflects the Company’s best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected. In addition to reviewing delinquent accounts receivable, the Company considers many factors in estimating its general allowance, including aging analysis, historical bad debt records, customer credit analysis and any specific known troubled accounts.

(j)Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Amortization of leasehold improvements is calculated on a straight-line basis over the life of the asset or the term of the lease, whichever is shorter. Major renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreciated; maintenance and repairs that do not extend the life of the respective assets are charged to expense as incurred. Upon disposal of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in income. Depreciation related to property and equipment used in production is reported in cost of sales. Property and equipment are depreciated over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Buildings and improvements 20 - 40 years

Farming facilities 10 years

Machinery and equipment 7 years

Transportation and other facilities 3 - 15 years

Long-term assets of the Company are reviewed annually to assess whether the carrying value has become impaired, according to the guidelines established in Statement of Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment of Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." The Company also evaluates the periods of amortization to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives. No impairment of assets was recorded in the periods reported.

	09/30/2011		12/31/2010
Buildings and improvements	$	99,323,501		95,277,965
Farming facilities		90,651,486		86,988,378
Machinery and equipment		11,580,476		11,133,849
Transportation		289,157,988		277,371,758
Total		490,713,450		470,771,950
Less: Accumulated Depreciation and amortization		76,102,598		66,386,424
Net	$	414,610,852		404,385,526

(k) Intangible assets

Intangible assets consist of land use rights and are recorded at cost. Under PRC’s current property rights regime, use rights for specified periods (e.g., 40 to 70 years) can be obtained from the state through the up-front payment of land use fees. The fees are determined by the location, type and density of the proposed development. This separation of land ownership and use rights allows the trading of land use rights while maintaining state ownership of land. The Company has over 250,000 acres of agriculture land that are utilized for grazing, cultivation, and reclamation, of which 50,000 acres are under cultivation using the latest scientific technologies to produce a wide variety of agricultural products.

(l) Impairment of long-lived assets

The carrying amounts of long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is evaluated by a comparison of the carrying amount of assets to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.

(m) Investments

Investments consist primarily of less than 20% equity positions in non-marketable securities and are recorded at lower of cost or market.

(n) Foreign currency translation

The accompanying financial statements are presented in United States (US) dollars. The functional currency is the Renminbi (“RMB”). The financial statements are translated into US dollars from RMB at year-end exchange rates for assets and liabilities, and weighed average exchange rates for revenues and expenses. Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred.

Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency translation are recorded in a separate component of shareholders’ equity. Foreign currency translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity for the years presented.

RMB is not freely convertible into the currency of other nations. All such exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. There is no guarantee the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US dollars at rates used in translation.

(o) Income taxes

As an agricultural enterprise, the Company and all of its agricultural subsidiaries are exempted from enterprise income taxes with approval from the Gansu Provincial Bureau of Local Taxation. The only non-agricultural subsidiary, Baiyin Cement Plant, has suffered net loss for the years shown and therefore has no applicable taxable income. Because of the uncertainty of future profits, no deferred tax assets have been set up at this time.

(p) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the year. The Company has no potentially dilutive shares for the periods shown.

(q) Economic and Political Risks

The Company faces a number of risks and challenges as a result of having primary operations and markets in the PRC. Changing political climates in the PRC could have a significant effect on the Company's business.

(r) Advertising expense

The Company records advertising expenses in the period incurred.

(s) Comprehensive income

Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a company during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances excluding transactions resulting from investments from owners and distributions to owners. Accumulated other comprehensive income, as presented on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, consists of mainly the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment.

(t) Recently issued accounting standards

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance to amend the disclosure requirements related to recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The guidance requires new disclosures on the transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 (quoted prices in active market for identical assets or liabilities) and Level 2 (significant other observable inputs) of the fair value measurement hierarchy, including the reasons and the timing of the transfers. Additionally, the guidance requires a roll forward of activities on purchases, sales, issuance, and settlements of the assets and liabilities measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 fair value measurements). The guidance became effective for us with the reporting period beginning January 1, 2010, except for the disclosure on the roll forward activities for Level 3 fair value measurements, which become effective for us with the reporting period beginning July 1, 2011. Other than requiring additional disclosures, adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements. See Note 6 – Fair Value Measurements.

On July 1, 2009, we adopted guidance issued by the FASB on business combinations. The guidance retains the fundamental requirements that the acquisition method of accounting (previously referred to as the purchase method of accounting) be used for all business combinations, but requires a number of changes, including changes in the way assets and liabilities are recognized and measured as a result of business combinations. It also requires the capitalization of in-process research and development at fair value and requires the expensing of acquisition-related costs as incurred. We have applied this guidance to business combinations completed since July 1, 2009 which have been none.

On July 1, 2009, we adopted guidance issued by the FASB that changes the accounting and reporting for non-controlling interests. Non-controlling interests are to be reported as a component of equity separate from the parent’s equity, and purchases or sales of equity interests that do not result in a change in control are to be accounted for as equity transactions. In addition, net income attributable to a non-controlling interest is to be included in net income and, upon a loss of control, the interest sold, as well as any interest retained, is to be recorded at fair value with any gain or loss recognized in net income. Adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

On July 1, 2009, we adopted guidance on fair value measurement for nonfinancial assets and liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). Adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In October 2009, the FASB issued guidance on revenue recognition that will become effective for us beginning July 1, 2010. Under the new guidance on arrangements that include software elements, tangible products that have software components that are essential to the functionality of the tangible product will no longer be within the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance, and software-enabled products will now be subject to other relevant revenue recognition guidance. Additionally, the FASB issued guidance on revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables that are outside the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance. Under the new guidance, when vendor specific objective evidence or third party evidence for deliverables in an arrangement cannot be determined, a best estimate of the selling price is required to separate deliverables and allocate arrangement consideration using the relative selling price method. The new guidance includes new disclosure requirements on how the application of the relative selling price method affects the timing and amount of revenue recognition. We believe adoption of this new guidance will not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance on the consolidation of variable interest entities, which is effective for us beginning July 1, 2010. The new guidance requires revised evaluations of whether entities represent variable interest entities, ongoing assessments of control over such entities, and additional disclosures for variable interests. We believe adoption of this new guidance will not have a material impact on our financial statements.

(u) Value added tax (VAT)

Value added tax is a consumption tax levied on value added. While the standard VAT rate in PRC is 17%, the Company's agricultural subsidiaries enjoy a reduced VAT rate of 4%.
