About Sino Agro Food, Inc.:

Sino Agro Food, Inc. (SIAF) is an integrated developer, producer and distributor of organic food and agricultural products in the Peoples Republic of China (PRC). The Company is focused on developing, producing and distributing higher margin agricultural products to meet the increasing demands from China's emerging middle class consumers for wholesome, trustworthy, higher quality, and gourmet or medicinal food items. We specialize in producing the highest quality beef and seafood, and high value produce.

Current lines of business include Aquaculture, Livestock Farming, Plantation Farming, Farm Services, and Marketing & Trading.

The Company's largest and most scalable businesses are indoor and semi-enclosed open dam aquaculture production of a variety of seafood, prawns, and eel, and production of over 60 cuts of beef and lamb. Both businesses fit the Company's "farm to table" concept with protein foods being nurtured from birth with proprietary feeds and technology to end sale of packaged products. In the case of aquaculture, the Company uses a proprietary Recirculating Aquaculture System ("RAS") featuring indoor tanks with fresh water recirculating 60 to 120 times per hour, controlled feed and growth environments, and no use of hormones, antibiotics, or other drugs or chemicals. In the case of beef and lamb protein products, live cattle is grazed and grazed on specified grasses grown with our proprietary fertilizers and methods; raised and fattened using proprietary livestock feed; deboned and packaged at the Company's abattoir, and sold through Company owned butcher shop concessions at Tesco PLC stores, among other outlets.

Accomplishments:


1. Dreagon Head Enterprise Status:

On October 28, 2013 Sino Agro's majority controlled subsidiary SJAP (Qinghai Sanjiang A Power Agriculture Co., Ltd.) nomination to apply the merit credentials in China to become a certified China Dragon head Enterprise was approved by government authorities.
This is a major achievement and marks a milestone in SJAP's business operations, plans, and prospects. "Dragon Head" designation both validates and promotes SJAP's transformation from purely a producer of whole live cattle to a producer, processor, and marketer of packaged, value added beef products. Such vertical integration presents a significant competitive advantage in the region. In the first quarter of 2014, a multiplier effect will begin to accrue across all financial measures.  "Dragon Head Enterprise" is a prestigious certification granted by the Government to businesses demonstrating corporate social responsibility ("CSR"), pioneering and leadership in business, and high standards of quality and services. It frequently leads to additional governmental grants and other forms of assistance. The Qinghai Province population has a larger percentage of ethnic minorities than most, and thereby businesses receive proportionately higher grants, incentives, assistances and subsidies from the Government. Stemming from its business model, SJAP has been well supported by the Government due to our CSR. The Company expects to receive even greater support from the Government with the approval of its "Dragon Head Enterprise" status.



2. Contracts with TESCO PLC:

The Company is delighted to announce that its China joint venture company Qinghai Sanjiang A Power Agriculture Co., Ltd. ("SJAP") has entered into two contracts with Tesco, PLC to become both a supplier and an in-store butcher shop concessionaire of beef and lamb. The contracts became effective June 19, 2014 and run for five years.

4. Newly Operating Abattoir Facilities  (Slaughterhouse):

SJAP slaughtered 158 head of cattle and de-boned 88 metric tons of meat in June. SJAP is on target to sell 20,000 head of cattle in 2014, raised by local cooperative farmers and grazed on land leased to SJAP to promote modern agriculture in the region.
Rapidly increasing proportions of cattle will be processed through SJAP's abattoir and de-boning/packaging facility in the second half of 2014. From there, meats will be distributed to various resellers. Under the SJAP "Bull" brand, up to 60 different cuts of packaged beef will be prepared for resale at SJAP concession butcher shops located within TESCO stores in China.



5. Mega Prawn Farm:

Sino Agro Foods has announced that its planned prawn farm complex will culture shrimp and prawns from hatchery to grow-out and packing all on its giant complex. With production expected to start in the second quarter of 2015. With a staggering production estimate of 300,000 metric tons, the company stated it hopes to reach this figure after ten years of production. The company has set a production target of 10,000 metric tons for the first two years, 30,000 metric tons in three years and 100,000 metric tons in five years.The farming system prides itself in being 100 per cent sustainable, as the shrimp/prawns are born, bred and grown in a closed indoor Re-circulating Aquaculture System (RAS). Sino Agro Foods' A Power Re-circulating Aquaculture System and Technology (APRAS) uses indoor tanks that re-circulate fresh water at a rate of 60 times an hour. As a closed system, it has low mortality rates of less than eight per cent and is less susceptible to the introduction of disease, meaning little or no risk of Early Mortality Syndrome. Most importantly, RAS is a green farming system since it does not require chemicals or antibiotics to recycle the water. Around 99.75 per cent of water within the tank can be recycled while the excrements of aquatic products can be used as organic fertilizer. It is these qualities which will also allowed the farm to use hydroponics to grow fruit and vegetables alongside the shrimp/prawns. This staggering project will also benefit the local community through the creation of 145,000 peripheral and direct jobs, a guaranteed sufficient food supply and an increase in local incomes - as direct employee jobs should have an average salary 25 per cent higher than average urban resident of Zhongshan and 100 per cent higher than the average rural resident.

As part of this convertible bond, Sino Agro Food has undertaken a commitment to cease the issuance of new shares as a means to pay suppliers and similar. Our ambition is that the equity will never again be used as currency until it has reached a value that to some degree reflects the fundamental value of the Company. With this foundation and Mr. Lee's commitment to work with Euro China Capital now in place, we are confident that we have established a platform from which Sino Agro Food has the ability to transform its operational success into value for all its shareholders.
