The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should also be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes to those financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements relating to future events or our future performance. Actual results may materially differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of certain risks and uncertainties set forth in this report. Although management believes that the assumptions made and expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, there is no assurance that the underlying assumptions will, in fact, prove to be correct or that actual results will not be different from expectations expressed in this report. Business Overview
We are a holding company incorporated inNevada . As a holding company with no material operations of our own, we conduct a substantial majority of our operations through our subsidiaries established inthe People's Republic of China , or "PRC" or "China ," and our variable interest entity, or "VIE." We control and receive the economic benefits of our VIE's business operations through certain contractual arrangements. Because of our corporate structure, we are subject to risks due to uncertainty of the interpretation and the application of the PRC laws and regulations, including but not limited to limitation on foreign ownership of internet technology companies, and regulatory review of oversea listing of PRC companies through a special purpose vehicle, and the validity and enforcement of the VIE Agreements. We are also subject to the risks of uncertainty about any future actions of the PRC government in this regard. Our VIE Agreements may not be effective in providing control over VIE. We may also subject to sanctions imposed by PRC regulatory agencies includingChinese Securities Regulatory Commission if we fail to comply with their rules and regulations.
We primarily engage in the manufacturing and distribution of organic fertilizer and the sales of agricultural products in the PRC. Our organic fertilizer products are sold under our brand names "Zongbao," "Fukang," and "Muliang."
Through our patented technology, we process crop straw (including corn, rice, wheat, cotton, and other crops) into high quality organic nutritious fertilizers that are easily absorbed by crops in three hours. Straws are common agricultural by-products. In PRC, farmers usually remove the straw stubble that are remains after grains, by burning them in order to continue farming on the same land. These activities have resulted in significant air pollution, and they damage the surface structure of the soil with loss of nutrients. We turn waste into treasure by transforming the straws into organic fertilizer, which also effectively reduces air pollution. The straw organic fertilizer we produce does not contain the heavy metals, antibiotics and harmful bacteria that are common in the traditional manure fertilizer. Our fertilizers also provide optimum levels of primary plant nutrients, including multi-minerals, proteins and carbohydrates that promote the healthiest soils capable of growing the healthy crops and vegetables. It can effectively reduce the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides as well as reduce the penetration of large chemical fertilizers and pesticides into the soil, thus avoiding water pollution. Therefore, our fertilizer can effectively improve the fertility of soil, and the quality and safety of agricultural products. We generated our revenue mainly from our organic fertilizers, which accounted for approximately 90.1% and 100% of our total revenue for the six months endedJune 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. We currently have two integrated factories in Weihai City,Shandong Province , PRC to produce our organic fertilizers, which have been in operations sinceAugust 2015 . We plan to improve the technology for our existing straw organic fertilizer production lines in the following aspects: (i) adopt more advanced automatic control technology for raw material feed to shorten the processing time of raw material, and (ii) manufacture powdered organic fertilizer instead of granular organic fertilizer production in order to avoid the drying and cooling process, as such will increase our production capacity. With the focus of producing organic fertilizers, we also engage in the business of selling agriculture food products including apples, and as a sales agent for other large agriculture companies in the PRC. In 2014, we rented 350 mu (about 57.66 acres) of mountainous land as an apple orchard. The sales of apples generated less than 1% of our total revenue for the six months endedJune 30, 2021 and 2020. We expect to generate more revenues from the sales of apples as the apple orchards become more mature in the next few years. 28
In addition, we plan to engage in the processing and distribution of black goat products, with business commencing at the end of 2021. We are currently constructing a deep-processing slaughterhouse and processing plant which is expected to have the capacity of slaughtering 200,000 black goats per year in Chuxiong City,Yunnan Province , inChina . Our black goat processing products including goat rib lets, goat loin roast, goat loin chops, goat rack, goat leg, goat shoulder, goat leg shanks, ground goat, goat stew meat, whole goat, half goat, lamb viscera, etc. We expect to start generating revenue from the black goat products at the end of 2021. We have sold our industrial land and buildings inShanghai through an administratively organized private sale before the end of the fiscal year endedDecember 31, 2020 . Through the sale, we have cleared all liens and legal claims attached to our subsidiary Zongbao and improve our cash position. We have completed the sale inApril 2021 . Viagoo Solutions

Also, using document automation and data integration technologies, Viagoo platform will offer value added services such as insurance on the go, vehicle lease financing, link up to rest stop, fuel, vehicle workshop services. The acquisition ofViagoo Pte Ltd , aSingapore based online logistic platform, will enable the Muliang group of companies to optimize the transport logistics to lower the cost of delivery and increase the efficiency. The platform will connect truck drivers to Muliang and provide end to end tracking of delivery status. With this platform, it is expected to reduce delivery costs by 30%. Viagoo platform is expected to be opened to theChina market where other companies and merchants can book delivery services and transporters can sign on to list and provide their services. Development work has begun inAugust 2020 to provide localization and support for map and address services inChina . The development and testing are expected to be completed inFebruary 2021 and ready for launch inApril 2021 . Viagoo Business Model
Viagoo business model has 3 main revenue streams.
29Viagoo Transport Marketplace (VTM) - This is the transaction platform for shippers and carriers to list and accept delivery jobs. The platform provides sharing functions where a group of shippers can share the transport fleet to some common places (e.g. shopping malls in the city). This service will reduce the waiting time and fuels and resulting in huge cost savings.
? VTM provides single job and bulk orders or API connection for job posting.
The fees are pre-calculated based on distance, areas, volume matric
weight, type of goods, delivery options and time.
? Task tracking - Shippers can track the delivery status if the option for
tracking is required.
? eWallet option - eWallet will be used for the service purpose and payment
will be deducted from the eWallet stored value. ? Reports - Delivery reports are available for shippers to track the performance and status of the delivery operation.
VTM is charged to carriers based on certain percentage of the freight charges. Other add-on services like online insurance, rest stop services will be a percentage charged to the service providers.
Viagoo Enterprise Services (VES) - is a cloud base service that provides the operation management to support the Transport and Logistics team. With the use of the various modules, carrier's transport management is able to greatly optimised the resources and achieve higher efficiency.
? Automatic Scheduling - Delivery / Invoice data will be pushed to the VES
for automatic schedule to the driver via VES mobile app. The criteria of
automatic scheduling are based on location, time preference, and route
zoning. These criteria can be configured and fine-tuned as the business
progresses. ? Route Optimisation - The system is able to automatically calculate the
best routes based on various delivery points and constraints such as "time
window". With the route optimisation, the transport planner is able to
handle new delivery addresses dynamically. Also if there is a change in
delivery plans due to various unforeseen circumstances such as vehicle
breakdown, customer last minute cancellation, the system is able to re-optimise quickly by pushing a button.
? VES Driver app - Task tracking - Once the tasks are started, they will be
tracked till the jobs are completed. If e-sign is accepted, customers can
sign and acknowledge the acceptance of goods using VES' mobile sign
feature built into the app or by taking a photo of the signed invoices or
deliver orders (usually the last page of the document). ? Customer Notification - Customers will be notified via email upon the completion of the delivery. A copy of the invoice / delivery order along
with the signed copies will be sent to customers (customer email list to
be maintained in the system) via email.
? Reports - Delivery reports are available for operations managers to track
the performance and status of the delivery operations.
? VES Temperature Sensor Tracking Services - This is an additional module
for real-time tracking of temperature control (via a GPS temperature
tracking device installed in the truck) trucks for the purpose of preventing food waste and ensuring food safety.
VES is charged based on a monthly subscription by vehicles and by users. It is integrated with VTM and jobs received via VTM can be assigned and tracked automatically by VES.
Enterprise Systems - This is a project based system integration. The enterprise system is charged based on project price and annual maintenance service fees. As Viagoo smart logistics platform gains acceptance in local markets, we expect business opportunities to arise for us to custom build enterprise solutions in the healthcare as well as logistics sectors. For example,Parkway Pantai Singapore is using us to custom build the online logistic job assignment and tracking of lab sample collection / delivery between clinics / hospitals and lab. This is to facilitate efficient deployment of the delivery resources and to ensure compliance is achieved in a tightly controlled fashion.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance withU.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We evaluate, on an on-going basis, our estimates for reasonableness as changes occur in our business environment. We base our estimates on experience, the use of independent third-party specialists, and 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. 30
Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments, estimates and uncertainties, and potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. We believe the following are our critical accounting policies:
Basis of Presentation
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in
Principles of Consolidation
Muliang Viagoo consolidates the following entities, including wholly-owned subsidiaries, Muliang HK, Shanghai Mufeng, Viagoo, and its wholly controlled variable interest entities, Muliang Industry, and Zhongbao, 60% controlledAgritech Development , 99% controlled Fukang, 65% controlled Zhonglian, 80% controlled Yunnan Muliang and 51% controlledHeilongjiang . The 40% equity interest holder ofAgritech Development , 1% equity interest holders in Fukang, 35% equity interest holders in Zhonglian, 20% interest in Yunnan Muliang and 49% equity interest inHeilongjiang are accounted as non-controlling interest in the Company's consolidated financial statements. The variable interest entities consolidated for which the Company is deemed the primary beneficiary. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates
In preparing financial statements in conformity withU.S. GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates, required by management, include the recoverability of long-lived assets and the valuation of inventories. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Accounts Receivable We state accounts receivable at cost, net of allowance for doubtful accounts. Based on our past experience and current practice in the PRC, management provides for an 100% allowance for doubtful accounts equivalent to those accounts that are not collected within one year, and 50% for receivables outstanding for longer than six months. It is management's belief that the current bad debt allowance adequately reflects an appropriate estimate based on management's judgment. Inventory Valuation We value our fertilizer inventories at the lower of cost, determined on a weighted average basis, and net realizable value (the estimated market price). Substantially all inventory expenses, packaging and supplies are valued by
the weighted average method. Revenue Recognition OnJanuary 1, 2018 , the Company adopted ASC 606 using the modified retrospective method. Results for the reporting period beginning afterJanuary 1, 2018 are presented under ASC 606, while prior period amounts have not been adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company's historic accounting under Topic 605.
Management has determined that the adoption of ASC 606 did not impact the Company's previously reported financial statements in any prior period nor did it result in a cumulative effect adjustment to opening retained earnings.
31 Revenue for sale of products is derived from contracts with customers, which primarily include the sale of fertilizer products and environmental protection equipment. The Company's sales arrangements do not contain variable consideration. The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time based on management's evaluation of when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied and control of the products has been transferred to the customer. For vast majority of the Company's product sales, the performance obligations and control of the products transfer to the customer when products are delivered, and customer acceptance is made. Revenue for logistics-related service is derived from Viagoo subsidiaries. Through an online service platform, the company provides the operation management service to support customers. For VTM service, revenue is charged to carriers based on certain percentage of the freight charges. For VES service, revenue is recognized based on monthly subscription by vehicles and by users. For system integration service, revenue is recognized over time based on the progress of project and annual maintenance service. Pursuant to the guidance of ASC Topic 840, rent shall be reported as income by lessors over the lease term as it becomes receivable. The Company currently leased part of the building of theShanghai new plant to third parties as warehouse. The Company recognizes building leasing revenue over the beneficial period described by the agreement, as the revenue is realized or realizable
and earned. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of Section 740-10-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, which is an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in its financial statements or tax returns. The Company is subject to the Enterprise Income Tax law ("EIT") ofthe People's Republic of China . The Company's operations in producing and selling fertilizers are subject to the 25% enterprise income tax. New Accounting Standards InFebruary 2016 , the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02 (ASU 2016-02) "Leases (Topic 842)". ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. ASU 2016-02 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning afterDecember 15, 2018 . Early adoption is permitted. For finance leases, a lessee is required to do the following:
? Recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, initially measured
at the present value of the lease payments, in the statement of financial
position
? Recognize interest on the lease liability separately from amortization of
the right-of-use asset in the statement of comprehensive income ? Classify repayments of the principal portion of the lease liability within
financing activities and payments of interest on the lease liability and
variable lease payments within operating activities in the statement of
cash flows.
For operating leases, a lessee is required to do the following:
? Recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, initially measured
at the present value of the lease payments, in the statement of financial
position
? Recognize a single lease cost, calculated so that the cost of the lease is
allocated over the lease term on a generally straight-line basis
? Classify all cash payments within operating activities in the statement of cash flows. 32
InJuly 2018 , the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-11 (ASU 2018-11), which amends ASC 842 so that entities may elect not to recast their comparative periods in transition (the "Comparatives Under 840 Option"). ASU 2018-11 allows entities to change their date of initial application to the beginning of the period of adoption. In doing so, entities would: ? Apply ASC 840 in the comparative periods.
? Provide the disclosures required by ASC 840 for all periods that continue
to be presented in accordance with ASC 840. ? Recognize the effects of applying ASC 842 as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings for the period of adoption. In addition, the FASB also issued a series of amendments to ASU 2016-02 that address the transition methods available and clarify the guidance for lessor costs and other aspects of the new lease standard.
The management has reviewed the accounting pronouncements and adopted the new
standard on
InDecember 2019 , the FASB issued ASU 2019-12 - Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. This ASU provides an exception to the general methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period when a year-to-date loss exceeds the anticipated loss for the year. This update also (1) requires an entity to recognize a franchise tax (or similar tax) that is partially based on income as an income-based tax and account for any incremental amount incurred as a non-income-based tax, (2) requires an entity to evaluate when a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill should be considered part of the business combination in which goodwill was originally recognized for accounting purposes and when it should be considered a separate transaction, and (3) requires that an entity reflect the effect of an enacted change in tax laws or rates in the annual effective tax rate computation in the interim period that includes the enactment date. The standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning afterDecember 15, 2020 , with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption on its consolidated financial statements. InAugust 2018 , the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), - Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement," which makes a number of changes meant to add, modify or remove certain disclosure requirements associated with the movement amongst or hierarchy associated with Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this Update modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements based on the concepts in FASB Concepts Statement, Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting-Chapter 8: Notes to Financial Statements, including the consideration of costs and benefits. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning afterDecember 15, 2019 , and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impacts of ASU 2018-13 on its consolidated financial statements.
The Company believes that there were no other accounting standards recently issued that had or are expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
Results of Operations
We are principally engaged in the organic fertilizer manufacture and
distribution business in the PRC, which account for 90% of our total revenue for
the six months ended
As a result of the COVID-19 outbreak inDecember 2019 and continuing in the year of 2020, the Company's businesses, results of operations, financial position and cash flows were adversely affected in 2020. However, the COVID-19 was under control for the six months endedJune 30, 2021 inChina . And we are growing our revenue steadily currently and will keep growing through 2021. 33

During the period, cash used in financing activities consisted of the repayment to related parties of$1,330,453 , and repayment of short-term
loan of$796,164 . We anticipate that our current cash reserves plus cash from our operating activities will not be sufficient to meet our ongoing obligations and fund our operations for the next twelve months. As a result, we will need to seek additional funding in the near future. We currently do not have a specific plan of how we will obtain such funding; however, we anticipate that additional funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of shares of our common stock or renewing our current obligations with lenders. We may also seek to obtain short-term loans from our directors or unrelated parties. Additional funding may not be available, or at acceptable terms, to us at this time. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may be required to reduce the scope of our business development activities, which could harm our business plans, financial condition and operating results.
