Dekon Food and Agriculture Group (hereinafter referred to as “Dekon Group”) has always been engaged in deeply cultivating modern agriculture and animal husbandry as well as high-end food industry based on the operation concept of “developing animal husbandry with food thinking and producing food with health-oriented thinking”. At present, Dekon Group owns two national key leading enterprises in agricultural industrialization, with businesses covering industries such as pig farming, high-quality chicken breeding, food processing, and digital agriculture. With more than 160 subordinated enterprises distributed in 14 provinces, cities and autonomous regions across the country, it has become a highly competitive and fast-growing agricultural and animal husbandry enterprise in China.
On December 6, 2023, Dekon Food and Agriculture Group was officially listed on the main board of Hong Kong Stock Exchange (stock abbreviation: Dekon Food and Agriculture, stock code: 2419.HK).
Dekon Group has a National Key Laboratory Innovation Base for Pig and Poultry Breeding Industry, Southwest Pig Breeding and Expansion Key Laboratory of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, Key Laboratory of Poultry Genetic Breeding of the Ministry of Agriculture, National Spark Program Leading Enterprise Technology Innovation Center, National Pig Technology Innovation Center-Breeding Technology Research and Development Center, and Southwest Branch of the National Pig Health Collaborative Innovation Center, and owns two national core pig breeding farms, one national core broiler breeding farm, and one national Huiyang bearded chicken breeding conservation farm. It won the honor of National Livestock and Poultry Breeding Industry Formation Enterprise.
In recent years, by relying on its strong scientific and technical advantages, genetic resources and breeding system, the Group has undertaken more than 50 national, provincial and ministerial level major scientific research projects, including the National 863 Program and 948 Program. Its key pig breeding indicators are at the international leading level, making the Group one of the large-scale export suppliers of high-quality parental chicken in China.
Dekon staff firmly believe that the sources of food are not only in food processing workshop, but also in breeding, planting, and even water, soil, and air. Therefore, on the one hand, we insist on providing safe and efficient feed products, constructing a healthy and ecological breeding base, and providing high-quality food. Step by step, we are committed to consolidating and penetrating the value chain of high-quality and high-grade food; on the other hand, we focus on the “county economy” to carry out innovative implementation and application through a new planting and farming integration mode and the “company + family farm” mode by introducing Dekon’s genetic breeding technology, disease prevention and control technology, animal nutrition technology and production management technology, and combining the actual breeding situation of thousands of households. It drives a group of efficient and ecological smart breeding and industrial poverty alleviation demonstration models, and enables the organic integration of farmers with modern agricultural development to promote rural development, increase farmers’ income, boost industry prosperity, and shape an efficient and sustainable eco-agricultural and animal husbandry model that achieves multiple wins.
Dekon achieves the “dream of healthy food” with an international vision, completes a complete industrial chain layout from the farm to the dining table, and promotes it with a high starting point and high standards. It collaborates with well-known enterprises such as Toennies Group, a comprehensive meat food enterprise in Germany to deepen cooperation in system construction and scientific research, with a purpose of building a high-quality food system in line with “EU standards and local characteristics”.
Up to now, Dekon Group’s high-quality slaughtering and food processing projects have been successfully landed in Yibin City and Meishan City, Sichuan Province and Suqian City, Jiangsu Province, and have been actively deployed and promoted to the whole country in accordance with the development thought of “building one and completing one”.
Dekon Group continues to promote AIOT breeding practice, applies AI technology and IOT technology to breeding production process management, disease monitoring and protection, biosafety management and intelligent device management, and continues to improve production indicators, increase efficiency and reduce costs to further achieve the traceability of food safety.
Through the integration of business and IT technology, the system has been gradually implemented and transformed at key nodes of business application. Dekon’s AI smart farming project achieved a key result, that is, the best practice program for Dekon intelligent breeding cloud platform was implemented. The “intelligent data acquisition method based on computer vision image recognition” has obtained the national patent, and has been put into practical use in Sichuan, Chongqing, Jiangsu, Guizhou and Hubei, etc. The technology not only demonstrates outstanding advantages in disease prevention and control, biosafety and data collection, but also has a significant effect on improving industrial efficiency.
