Jiangsu Huifeng Agrochemical

What Jiangsu Huifeng Agrochemical does

Jiangsu Huifeng Agrochemical Co., Ltd. is a Chinese public-listed pesticide manufacturer (stock symbol szse:2496) founded in 1989 and headquartered in Dafeng City, Jiangsu Province, with a wholly-owned subsidiary, Shanghai Dibai Plant Protection Co., Ltd. The company produces both technical-grade active ingredients (prochloraz at 97% and prochloraz manganese at 98%, epoxiconazole, bromoxynil octanoate, diflufenican, tralkoxydim, cyhalofop-butyl, bifenthrin and trinexapac-ethyl) and a wide range of ready-to-use formulations (EC, EW, WP, SC) across fungicides, herbicides and plant growth regulators. It operates the world's No.1 R&D and industrial base for prochloraz and holds China No.1/world No.2 dedicated production positions in 2,4-D, cyhalofop-butyl and bromoxynil octanoate, with aggregate production capacity of approximately 100,000 tons.

The company's revenue model is built on three streams: (i) sale of technical-grade active ingredients, (ii) sale of formulated pesticide products to the domestic Chinese agricultural sector through its channel and distributor network, and (iii) contract manufacturing (OEM) supply to top 10 global agrochemical enterprises under strategic alliance agreements, exemplified by a 2020 funding round led by ADAMA Agricultural Solutions. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is structured around B2B volume- and specification-based quotations. Go-to-market combines enterprise field sales for international OEM partners, channel/distributor-led domestic sales for Chinese agriculture, and trade-show participation (CAC, Agrochemex, International Crop Protection Exhibition) for global lead generation.

The firm maintains a deep moat in regulatory and quality infrastructure, having authored two FAO pesticide standards (Prochloraz technical and Prochloraz EW) approved by FAO/WHO/CIPAC, holding 177 ICAMA pesticide registration approvals (March 2016), and being the first enterprise in Asia Pacific to obtain Responsible Care System Certification and the first in its industry to secure ISO 9001:2000, ISO 14001 and OHSAS18001 triple certification. Leadership includes President Zhong Hangen and CFO Jinhua Yang.
