Sino Agro Food, Inc. Executes Supply Contract with Guangzhou Jinyang Aquaculture Co. Ltd.

GUANGZHOU, China, December 19, 2011 — Sino Agro Food, Inc. (OTCQB: SIAF.PK), an emerging integrated, diversified agriculture technology and organic food company with principal operations located throughout the Peoples Republic China (“PRC”), is pleased to announce that our subsidiary company, Enping A Power Fishery Development Co. Ltd. ("EAPF"), has executed a contract with Guangzhou Jinyang Aquaculture Co. Ltd. ("GJAC"), one of the most modern and technology driven aquaculture companies in the Guangdong Province PRC.

GJAC specializes in nursery services and breeding of a number of high quality table fish such as Puff fish, Murray and Sleepy Cod. The Company operates over 164 acres of fisheries in the Pun Yu District of GuangZhou, PRC.

The contract between GJAC and EAPF is for the supply of 500,000 sleepy cod ranging from 150g - 300g in 2012 and 800,000 sleepy cod in 2013. The contract also includes the supply of 250 tons of bait fish in 2012 and 500 tons in 2013.

Mr. Solomon Lee, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, stated, "With these supplies and additional supplies from alternative sources, we anticipate that Enping A Power Fishery will be able to produce a minimum of 500 Tons and 1,000 Tons of sleepy cods at minimum marketable weights of 500g /fish in year 2012 and 2013, respectively, thus eliminating part of the growing risk involved in the growing from baby fingerling to 300g per fish. The supplies are based on a fixed cost such that it will also eliminate the variation of the fish supply cost due to seasonal factors. Based on current wholesale prices, Enping A Power Fishery is targeting and projecting US$13.5 million and $27 million of fish sales for 2012 and 2013."

Sino Agro Food, Inc. is also currently working with a number of leading regional fishery and prawn culture operations in Guandong Province in order to secure additional down-stream support such as fingerling supplies, adult fish, formulated feed, medication and vaccines. These projects are expected to improve the Company's growing and breeding technologies as well as species specific improvements. By conducting these joint projects, Sino Agro Food's fishery operations are leading the development of sustainable, efficient and economical fishery operations in China aiming to provide sound commercial infrastructural bases to support the Company’s expansion program in building more RAS farms in PRC.
