Giant King Grass is a perennial fast-growing plant that grows up to 4 m tall and can be harvested four times a year in tropical and subtropical regions with yields up to 156 metric tons (wet) per acre per year. Giant King Grass has much higher yield than competing grasses such as switchgrass and miscanthus.

VGE initially planted 1.2 million seedlings in late 2008 in Guangdong province in southern China. 3 million new grass seedlings propagated from the initial planting are now growing on 112 acres of land leased for 25 years in China.
