BEIJING, May 23, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Origin Agritech Ltd. (NASDAQ: SEED) (the “Company” or “Origin”), an agriculture technology company, announced today that the company and Yunnan Feeding Company have entered into a supply agreement, under which Yunnan will purchase 20,000 metric tons of Origin’s nutritionally enhanced corn (NEC).
Pricing will be based on the prevailing price of corn at the time of delivery but based on current market prices the deal would be valued at RMB3100 per metric ton, or RMB62 million in total ($9.2 million).
Origin had previously announced 50,000 metric ton supply agreement back in April of this year. The approximate combined value of the two orders is RMB217mm ($32 million). This backlog of orders does not include any impact from the previously announced collaboration with BaoDao Feed Ltd.
“It is quite gratifying to see the feedstock industry’s excitement and demand for our new corn variety, NEC,” said Dr. Gengchen Han, Origin Agritech’s Chairman. “We are focused on operations and ramping up production to catch up with the quickly increasing demand.”
