Over the past 20+ years, ATA has successfully implemented more than 25 agricultural projects in the People’s Republic of China. Among these, a particularly successful initiative involved the delivery of agricultural machinery, irrigation systems, slurry processing equipment, and an organic fertilizer production plant to Linfen.

At the time, Linfen was known as the most polluted city in the world due to the extensive use of coal in the steel industry. The ATA project supported local farmers by providing modern agricultural equipment, which had a significant ecological impact. The soil was revitalized through proper treatment using irrigation systems and the application of organic fertilizer produced in the newly established fertilizer plant.

The project scope again included holistic training courses to equip farmers with the skills needed to effectively operate the machinery and implement organic fertilization techniques. This not only improved soil quality but also enhanced crop yields, contributing to both environmental sustainability and agricultural productivity.
