BEIJING, April 4, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Shineco, Inc. ("Shineco" or the "Company"; NASDAQ: TYHT), a producer and distributor of Chinese herbal medicines, organic agricultural produce, specialized textiles, and various health and well-being focused plant-based products in China, announced today that the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary Tenjove NewHemp Biotech Co., Ltd. ("TNB"), entered into a strategic cooperation agreement (the "Agreement") with the Xingshan People's Government of Hegang City of Heilongjiang Province (the "Government").

Pursuant to the Agreement, both parties agree to actively promote the development of a complete industrial chain for industrial hemp including cultivation, harvesting, initial processing and fine extraction to form a local industry integration model and to achieve a new industrial scale economy.

As part of the Agreement, both parties plan to develop a 20,000 mu (approximately 3,295 acres) high-quality industrial hemp project and expect to complete the cultivation of the first 500 mu in 2019. Besides conducting joint research and development on several new varieties of industrial hemp, both parties also agree to establish an industrial hemp farm, a CBD Extraction Industrial Park, an Industrial Hemp Research Center affiliated with the China's Academy of Science, and an Industrial Hemp Workstation sponsored by the City of Hegang of Heilongjiang Province.

Mr. Yuying Zhang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Shineco, commented, "we are pleased to announce this agreement with the Xingshan People's Government of Hegang City. We expect an annual production of 30 tons of CBD extract, and other raw medical materials from our industrial hemp project, along with 2,000 tons of industrial hemp fiber, 500 tons of industrial hemp seed oil and 4,000 tons of hemp leaves. We estimate the value of the CBD and related raw medical extract alone to reach RMB2.1 billion, given the robust demand for CBD products and the resulting high market price. We look forward to leveraging our extensive experience in processing and marketing agricultural products and sharing our expertise with the appropriate authorities to ensure a profitable, environmentally friendly, and socially conscious development path in line with local government expectations."
