Company Summary

Futu distributes high quality biological fertilizers to large-scale farms in China. These farmers typically use chemical fertilizers inefficiently and cause significant pollution (10M tons of Nitrogen per year) and a degradation of arable land. Our Company can capitalize on the lack of service and education currently offered to farmers, while at the same time help to reduce pollution and improve China's long-term sustainability in agriculture.
