Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Basis of Presentation and Consolidation The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP applicable to interim financial information and the requirements of Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods have been included. These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2014, included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission on December 11, 2014, as not all disclosures required by US GAAP for annual financial statements are presented. The interim consolidated financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of computations as the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2014. Operating results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2015 may not be necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of General Agriculture Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |

Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Use of Estimates The preparation of unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods presented. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the recoverability of the carrying amounts of recorded assets and liabilities, estimated useful life of property and equipment, inventory obsolesce and the allowance for doubtful accounts. |
Trade and Other Accounts Receivable, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable are recorded net of allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts. Periodically, management assesses customer credit history and relationships as well as performs accounts receivable aging analysis. Based on the results, management determines whether certain balances are deemed uncollectible at the end of each period. As of June 30, 2015 and September 30, 2014, no allowance was deemed necessary. |
Inventory, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Inventory Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the weighted-average cost method. Provisions are made for excess, slow moving and obsolete inventory as well as inventory whose carrying value is in excess of net realizable values, if any. Management continually evaluates the recoverability based on assumptions about customer demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory reserves or write-downs may be required that could negatively impact our gross margin and operating results. As of June 30, 2015 and September 30, 2014, no provisions were deemed necessary. |
Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Revenue Recognition The Company derives its revenue primarily from sale of navel oranges.

Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash and accounts receivable arising from its normal business activities. The Company places its cash in what it believes to be credit-worthy financial institutions. The Company controls credit risk related to accounts receivable through credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures. The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and, based upon factors surrounding the credit risk, establishes an allowance, if required, for uncollectible accounts and, as a consequence, believes that its accounts receivable credit risk exposure beyond such allowance is limited.

Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Earnings Per share The Company reports earnings per share in accordance with the provisions of ASC 260.10, "Earnings Per Share”. ASC 260.10 requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share in conjunction with the disclosure of the methodology used in computing such earnings per share.

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Recent Accounting Pronouncements In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-05, IntangiblesGoodwill and OtherInternal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement. The amendments in this ASU provide guidance that will help entities evaluate the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement, including whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. If a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, then the customer should account for the software license consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses; otherwise, the customer should account for the arrangement as a service contract. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Entities can elect to adopt the amendments either prospectively to all arrangements entered into after the effective date or retrospectively to all prior periods. The Company does not expect the adoption of the amendment in this ASU to have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-011, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. The amendments in this ASU do not apply to inventory that is measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method, but rather does apply to all other inventory, which includes inventory that is measured using first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost. An entity should measure in scope inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using LIFO or the retail inventory method. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The amendments in this ASU should be applied prospectively with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period.
