WUHAN CITY, China, Oct. 26, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Renmin Tianli Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: ABAC) ("Renmin Tianli" or the "Company"), a producer of breeder hogs, market hogs and black hogs, as well as specialty processed black hog pork products sold through retail outlets and the internet, with headquarters in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China, today announced the closure of its farm in Fenglai County, Enshi Prefecture, Hubei Province in response to an executive order (the "Order") from the Fenglai County government due to environmental concerns resulting from the increase in the population in the area surrounding the farm. The Company plans to fully comply with the Order and expects to complete the transfer of hogs and the dismantling of facilities at the farm by the end of this month. Established in 2007, the farm is situated on approximately 23.72 acres of leased land with buildings dedicated to hog rearing, administration and employee housing. The farm was producing approximately 20,000 hogs annually. Following the closure of this farm, the Company will have 7 farms in operation with combined annual capacity of 110,000 hogs.

Additionally, Renmin Tianli announced that it has signed a share purchase agreement (the "Agreement") to acquire a 29 per cent equity interest in Enshi Huacai Agricultural Development Co. Ltd. ("Huacai"). Pursuant to the Agreement executed on October 26, 2018 (the "Agreement Date"), Renmin Tianli will acquire 29 per cent of the equity of Huacai for an aggregate of 2,000,000 common shares of Renmin Tianli. Renmin Tianli will have an option to acquire up to 100 per cent of the equity of Huacai under similar terms until March 2019. All shares shall be issued and delivered within 20 business days of the Agreement Date.
