China Green Agriculture, Inc. Retains HC International, Inc. for Investor Relations

      

"The team at HC International is well-respected and has a track record of representing successfulChina-based, U.S.-listed companies," commented Mr. Tao Li, CEO of China Green Agriculture (CGA). "After careful review, we selected HC International to ensure that our shareholders and the investment community fully understand our current business model, competitive advantages, market opportunity and growth strategy; especially as we further expand our fertilizer product portfolio and increase our distribution channels, while bringing our new 40,000 ton production facility on-line this August," Mr. Li continued, "Supported by specific sector knowledge, we are confident HCI will help us to improve our overall communication capabilities, which includes delivering our story and subsequent milestones to a larger, targeted base of investors."

"China Green Agriculture is well positioned to capitalize on the market opportunities withinChina's fertilizer and agriculture industry. With a national distribution network, state-of-the-art research and development, automated production, and superior after-sales support, the Company has become a premier fertilizer producer inChina today," stated Matthew Hayden, President of HC International. "CGA's revenue and earnings grew respectively at an approximate 70% CAGR during the past three fiscal years while announcing an 86% growth in revenues for the second quarter ending December 31, 2008, compared to the year ago period.China is both the world's largest producer and consumer of fertilizer products and despite the global economic downturn and severe drought in northernChina, we feel the company will benefit from a series of recently announced initiatives by the PRC government, which includes a rural reform plan, deregulation on fertilizer prices, and an increase in the minimum purchase price for major grain crops. Moreover, high yielding and environmentally sustainable fertilizers will be crucial toChina's agricultural production due to shrinking arable land, ongoing consumer food safety concerns and growing population." Mr. Hayden continued, "CGA's automated production line not only ensures optimal quality standards, but also reduces associated production costs, thereby expanding margins and profitability. The Company utilizes its proprietary R&D facilities to internally develop all fertilizers, which are customized for specific climate and soil specifications, dramatically reducing the time to market to three months compared to an industry average of nine months. Supported by a vertically integrated platform that utilizes 500 distributors to sell its branded products to 27 provinces throughoutChina, CGA has several competitive advantages which create a business with superior operating metrics, as evidenced by gross and operating profit margins of 59% and 45%, respectively, for the second quarter ending December 31, 2008. By leveraging its new facility which will significantly expand its production capacity, CGA is well positioned to gain further market share inChina's fertilizer market," Mr. Hayden concluded.

HCI is a premierChina information resource to institutional investors, hedge funds, independent portfolio managers, buy and sell-side analysts, small to large retail brokerage firms, accredited individual investors, and various financial publications. HC will help China Green Agriculture extend and expand its investor awareness and shareholder communications program, which includes introductions to key industry participants in the US,Canada,Europe andAsia.
