Water Stress

Drought Stress

Drought is the primary natural disaster affecting crop yield and quality. Among the total area affected by agricultural disasters in China, drought-affected areas account for 42% year-round, resulting in an annual grain reduction of approximately 12.5 billion kg (approx. USD 1.75 billion). Drought conditions interfere with basic physiological metabolisms such as photosynthesis and respiration, hinder root absorption of soil nutrients, and reduce the synthesis of active substances in fruits, including mineral elements, amino acids, soluble proteins, soluble sugars, flavonoids, and vitamin C. Ultimately, this leads to reduced crop yield and declining fruit quality.


Waterlogging Stress

The damage caused by waterlogging to crops does not originate from standing water itself. Long-term soil water saturation results in insufficient oxygen supply to the root system, thereby inducing damage to various physiological functions. In the early stage of waterlogging, plant leaves wilt and droop, with slight curling. As waterlogging persists, symptoms such as leaf yellowing and abscission, flower and fruit drop, and drying of new shoots occur. If the waterlogging period is prolonged, branches dry out and necrose, xylem discolors, bark peels off, and in severe cases, the entire plant dies.

Light Stress

Light conditions directly affect crop yield and quality. Both excess and insufficient light reduce photosynthetic efficiency and inhibit photosynthetic nutrient synthesis. Due to global climate change, solar radiation intensity has been declining year by year in many regions. Relevant experimental data show that for every 1 MJ/m² decrease in daily average solar radiation, corn yield decreases by 6%–7%, and wheat yield decreases by up to 6%–8%.


Strong sunlight can easily cause fruit sunburn, leading to skin burning, ulceration, shrinkage, hardening, and sugar loss. When light is insufficient, the synthesis of soluble solids, soluble sugars, soluble proteins, vitamin C, and other substances in fruits is hindered, significantly deteriorating fruit quality.

Temperature Stress

In recent years, extreme weather events have become frequent, making temperature-related stresses such as high and low temperatures increasingly prominent, seriously threatening the normal harvest of various food crops.

High Temperature Stress

For every 1°C increase in temperature, the global average yield of major grain crops can decrease by up to 19.7%. Relevant predictions indicate that around 2040, high-temperature disasters may cause a 30%–40% reduction in global grain production. Research data from Science Advances show that between 1992 and 2013, extreme high temperatures driven by climate change caused global economic losses exceeding USD 16 trillion.


Low Temperature Stress

After crops suffer chilling injury, photosynthetic efficiency decreases, cell membrane fluidity worsens, and root absorption and nutrient transport capacity decline. Photosynthetic products and mineral nutrients cannot be smoothly transported to various growth parts of the plant. Compared to chilling injury, freezing injury is more destructive. In addition to the above physiological problems, it causes intracellular and intercellular freezing, destroys plant tissue structure, leads to leaf dehydration and yellowing, and in severe cases, the entire plant dies. In 2023, China experienced 31 rounds of cold air invasions, including 8 cold wave events. Low-temperature freezing injury and snow disasters affected a total of 519,200 hectares of crops, causing a direct economic loss of USD 686 million.

Temperature Stress

Soil Stress

Soil environmental stress is a prominent issue in China, causing annual grain reduction of up to 10 billion kg (approx. USD 1.4 billion).

Soil degradation is the most critical problem among soil stresses. Deterioration of soil structure and imbalance of beneficial microorganisms lead to a series of degradation symptoms such as soil infertility, acidification, and salinization. Relevant calculations show that without targeted improvement measures, soil acidification could cause a grain yield reduction of more than 16% in the future. Currently, the global area of salinized land exceeds 833 million hectares, with more than 10% of arable land experiencing salinization, continuously threatening global food supply. In addition, soil degradation reduces the quality of agricultural products, leading to insufficient synthesis of starch, protein, amino acids, and other nutrients in fruits, hindering fruit coloring and aroma formation, and ultimately causing a significant decline in fruit appearance, taste, and nutritional value.

Soil Stress
05

Air Stress

With rapid industrialization and urbanization, air pollution has become increasingly severe and is now a key stress factor hindering normal crop growth. Harmful pollutants such as sulfides, hydrogen fluoride, nitrogen oxides, and heavy metals in near-surface air interfere with crop photosynthesis, respiration, and various physiological metabolisms, damage plant cell tissues, cause growth retardation, and in severe cases, plant death. Therefore, enhancing crop tolerance to polluted air has become a key direction in plant stress resistance research.


Changes in carbon dioxide (CO₂) content also profoundly affect crop yield and quality. Statistical data from China between 2003 and 2020 show that CO₂ emissions increased from 4,249.68 million tons to 10,503.75 million tons. If greenhouse gas emissions are not controlled, it is estimated that by the end of this century, one-third of the world's arable land will face the risk of total crop failure. Continuously rising CO₂ concentrations also restrict the accumulation of mineral elements and proteins in crops, leading to a decline in the nutritional quality of agricultural products./p>

    HSE Management System

Based on the development direction of reducing fertilizer use while increasing efficiency, we rely on innovative agronomic solutions to help achieve the dual reduction of agricultural fertilizers and pesticides, safeguarding the safety of agricultural products at the source.


We are well aware that long-term excessive application of traditional fertilizers not only causes unnecessary waste of agricultural resources but also continuously damages the soil, water, and atmospheric ecological environment. To this end, the company has incorporated fertilizer reduction and efficiency enhancement into its core HSE development strategy. Reduction does not mean blindly cutting fertilizer use, but rather relying on self-developed biostimulant products and supporting agronomic solutions to comprehensively improve the absorption and utilization efficiency of fertilizer nutrients.


Several of our biostimulant products incorporate high-activity humic acid, seaweed extracts, amino acids, and other core ingredients, enabling multi-mechanism support for scientific reduction: activating solidified and idle nutrients in the soil, converting them into forms easily absorbed by crops; promoting robust root growth and expanding the root absorption range; regulating plant physiological functions to accelerate nutrient absorption and transformation. On the basis of stable yield and quality, farmers can reduce fertilizer use by 10%–30%.


Fertilizer reduction not only lowers dependence on agricultural chemical inputs but also reduces agricultural non-point source pollution such as water eutrophication caused by nutrient loss, while simultaneously reducing greenhouse gas emissions. We adhere to a green R&D approach, using environmentally friendly agricultural solutions to help domestic agriculture achieve the task of reducing fertilizers and pesticides, continuously delivering safe and high-quality agricultural products, and earnestly fulfilling our social responsibility for food safety and ecological environment protection.

Focusing on Soil Health, Resisting Salinity and Alkalinity


Soil is a precious, non-renewable natural resource. The health of the soil directly determines whether modern agriculture can achieve long-term sustainable development. Guided by the HSE business philosophy, we are deeply engaged in soil ecological maintenance and degraded farmland restoration, focusing on overcoming soil problems such as salinization, which has become a major abiotic stress factor hindering global agricultural stability.


Soil improvement runs through our entire product development and formulation design process. Our self-developed biostimulants utilize unique active functional groups to optimize soil physical and chemical properties, promote soil aggregate formation, break soil compaction, and effectively enhance soil aeration, water retention, and fertility. Under saline-alkaline conditions, the products regulate ion homeostasis within crops, block the accumulation of harmful elements such as sodium ions, enhance cellular osmotic regulation, and ensure stable crop growth under salt stress. At the same time, the organic matter in the products provides a carbon source for beneficial soil microorganisms, activates microbial vitality, and progressively restores the soil micro-ecological environment.


We do not only focus on emergency improvement of damaged soil but also place greater emphasis on long-term farmland conservation, fundamentally reversing soil degradation and optimizing farmland productivity. Through concrete actions, we protect high-quality arable land resources and leave fertile fields for future generations. This is our solemn commitment based on HSE principles and land protection.
