    Xinjiang Alfalfa Operation

No alfalfa shipments were made during the month of September, as the Company was accumulating working capital to purchase the necessary raw materials. Funds were sent to the Alfalfa Operation upon closing of the Company's recent convertible debenture private placement.

Raymond Lai , President & CEO of Maple Leaf comments, "We have now closed and received final approval for our convertible debenture private placement, which was excitingly oversubscribed. The funds from this offering will finally allow us to ramp-up and reap the benefits of our Alfalfa Operation. In addition, some of the funds will be used to grow our production at the Organic Fertilizer Plant. We are very much looking forward to having all three of our operations contributing meaningfully to our revenue production."
