- ShanDongDenghai Seeds Co.,Ltd (002041.SZ) is a China-based agricultural high-tech enterprise principally engaged in the research, breeding, production, processing, packaging, and sales of crop seeds. The company primarily offers hybrid corn seeds under the Denghai brand, including popular varieties such as Denghai No.605, Denghai No.618, Xianyu No.335, Liangyu No.99, Denghai 1959D, and Liangyu 188; it also provides seeds for wheat, rice, vegetables, flowers, and other crops. Founded in 2000 and headquartered in Laizhou, Shandong Province, the company operates as a subsidiary of Laizhou Academy of Agricultural Sciences and primarily serves domestic markets in China, with a nationwide distribution network supported by subsidiaries and investments across regions.
In recent developments, ShanDongDenghai Seeds announced in November 2025 plans to invest CNY 30 million to establish a wholly-owned subsidiary, Hainan Oriental Denghai Seeds Co., Ltd., in Hainan Province's Eastern City, leveraging the Hainan Free Trade Port's advantages for seed production, international market expansion, and response to national seed industry revitalization strategies. This follows earlier expansions, including the 2024 establishment of a CNY 70 million subsidiary in Chabuchar Xibe Autonomous County, Xinjiang, and a CNY 100 million investment in Yili, Xinjiang in 2023, enhancing its north-south breeding and production bases. The company has also advanced in genetically modified corn, securing six nationally approved or preliminarily reviewed GM varieties as of mid-2025, with Denghai 605D leading demonstrations and sales growth, alongside ongoing R&D investments yielding new hybrid varieties.
