GVBT+ Research and Development

In order to further improve and enhance our fertilizer products, we have collaborated with reputable academic institutions in China and Hong Kong to carry out further research and tests to our fertilizer products. We have recently started a trial program with the Rice Crops Research Laboratory of the Guangdong Agricultural Science Institute to test our various fertilizer products as applied to different types of rice seeds in the Guangdong Province. The objective of the test is to find out the best combinations of rice seeds and fertilizers (especially organic bio-fertilizers) for rice productions in terms of both quality and quantity.

One of our fertilizer products (Lutu Brand Microbial Organic Fertilizers -specialized for vegetable and fruit crops) has been approved as an organic fertilizer by the Organic Food Development and Certification Centre of China (the “OFDC”) since 2015.

The OFDC is a specialized certification body that has been registered at China national authority (CNCA) and is both nationally (China National Accreditation Service for Conformity Assessment --CNAS) and internationally (International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements --IFOAM) accredited.

The further development of our fertilizer products will be in line with the direction of our mission, namely, the adoption of ecologically, socially and economically systems that are based on the principles of Organic Agriculture .

Also consistent with our mission, we have since 2015 become a member of California Institute of Food and Agricultural Research (CIFAR) at the University of California Davis.

We look forward to collaborating in projects with CIFAR and other members to undertake further projects relating to agricultural developments.
