AGREEMENTS WITH FARMERS

NOTE H - AGREEMENTS WITH FARMERS

 

The Company has executed agreements with a number of local farmers to grow, cultivate and harvest Ginseng utilizing the Company’s land grants. The farming contracts commenced in January 2008 and ended in 2013. In connection with these agreements, the Company (1) leases sections of the Ginseng land grants to the farmers at approximately $1.50 (10 RMB) per square meter per year, (2) provides the seeds and fertilizer to the farmers and clears the land of large debris. These costs are capitalized by the Company and included in the Ginseng Crop inventory, (3) pays the farmers a management fee of approximately $0.50 (4.00 RMB) per square meter per year and (4) the farmers are required to produce 2kg of Ginseng for each square meter that they manage. The Company pays the farmers market price for their Ginseng. If the harvest is below 2kg per square meter, the difference will be deducted from the total payment for Ginseng purchased. If the harvest produces more that 2kg per square meter, the Company pays approximately $3.00 for every extra kilo. The Company records these agreements on a net basis by individual farmers. The Company has also recorded a payable to the farmers for the net management fee due to the farmers. The liability at June 30, 2015 and 2014 was $879,567 and $873,964, respectively. The receivable and liability balances for the respective areas will be settled at harvest time when the Company purchases the harvest at the current market value for Ginseng.
