(OTC Bulletin Board: CAGC) ("China Agritech", or the "Company"), a leading national organic fertilizer manufacturer and distributor in China, today announced that it has received a certificate of registration from the Chinese Ministry of Agriculture for its new high-tech, humic acid-based, organic liquid and powder compound fertilizers.

Mr. Yu Chang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of China Agritech, commented, "We have achieved a breakthrough in the area of research on the compound structure of humic acid. We have already incorporated this new breakthrough technology in our new products. We have combined innovation and technology in our new liquid and powder products utilizing nano-honeycomb embedding technology and microelement deep complexing, which makes them more environmentally friendly and effective with a higher content of nutrients than traditional organic fertilizers. These new breakthrough products for China Agritech highlight the capabilities of our R & D team."

"The new products are expected to be launched this quarter and will be distributed nationally using the Company's extensive domestic sales network to contribute to sales and profits in the next few quarters."

"The certification criteria for new fertilizers is evolving and becoming more stringent in China. The registration of our new products with these high-tech contents, demonstrates we have the knowledge and skill to develop additional value-added, proprietary products to address the needs of the marketplace and capture market share.
