2017 is the second year of corn marketization. In the context of corn destocking, China has implemented reforms to adjust the corn planting structure on the supply side. In addition to the decline in imports of substitute agricultural products on the consumer side, national policies have further liberalized corn deep processing Approval authority, for example, on April 11, 2017, the General Office of the National Development and Reform Commission issued the “Abolition of“ Notice on Matters Related to Corn Deep Processing Management Project ”” (Fagaiban Industry [2017] No. 627), 2017 Starting from 28th, China's raw sugar processing, corn deep processing, fuel ethanol production and other fields will be lifted.

 

 

  Encouraged by national policies, supported by local governments, coupled with advantages such as low-lying raw material resources and subsidies for deep processing, a number of corn deep processing projects such as starch, alcohol, and amino acids in the northeast region have been launched in the first half of 2017, and the investment boom has been wavering The area favored by enterprises is Heilongjiang Province. Taking amino acids as an example, Tiancheng Group ’s deep processing and investment projects may be delayed, and will not be added for the time being. If the remaining related companies plan to achieve full production capacity, threonine will increase annual production capacity by about 500,000 tons, and lysine will increase annually. With a production capacity of about 1 million tons, tryptophan will increase its annual production capacity by about 15,000 tons. In addition, in July this year, Dacheng Group stated that it would start the Dehui threonine expansion project in the next two years. In recent years, lysine and threonine are mostly in the margin of profitability, and starch and alcohol are more difficult. Without government subsidies, profitability is difficult to maintain. This year, corn deep processing various types of production capacity investment plans are put into practice, and market competition will be even more two years later. fierce.

 

 

According to the data of Huitong, the companies that invested in the construction of amino acids in 2017 are listed below.

 

Fufeng Bio: In the first quarter of 2017, Fufeng Bio plans to invest in Qiqihar in Heilongjiang Province to build a bio-fermentation project with an annual processing capacity of 3 million tons of corn. The project uses corn as raw material to produce various amino acid products. The project will be divided into three phases of construction, of which the first phase of 100,000 tons of threonine capacity and 200,000 tons of crystalline sugar capacity is expected to be put into operation at the end of 2017, and it is expected that there will be another 100,000 tons of lysine capacity in operation in the first half of 2018 The first phase of the project can process 1.5 million tons of corn per year.

 

Yipin Bio: Plan to invest in a 900,000 tons annual corn deep processing project in Daqing City, Heilongjiang Province from August 2017 to October 2018, including 130,000 tons of lysine hydrochloride and 170,000 tons of lysine sulfate , 100,000 tons of threonine.

 

Wanli Runda: In May 2017, a 1.5 million-ton corn deep-processing project in Wanli Runda, Baoqing County, Heilongjiang Province began construction. Among them, a bioengineering center centered on fermented amino acids will produce 200,000 tons of rumen lysine annually. There are 100,000 tons of leucine and 10,000 tons of tryptophan, with an annual output of 2,000 tons of branched chain amino acids.

 

Xianyu Group: In 2017, Xiangyu Group invested 3.8 billion yuan in Beilin, Suihua City, Heilongjiang Province to build a 1.5 million-ton corn deep-processing project with three branched chain amino acids, tryptophan, and threonine as its main products. The project started construction in mid-April of this year and was completed and put into production in 2018.

 

Dongyu Group: On June 15, 2017, the million-ton corn deep-processing project in Qiqihar City, Heilongjiang Province was signed. The project was invested and constructed by Dongyu Group, and the project was constructed in two phases. The first phase of investment is 1.5 billion yuan, including 100,000 tons of lysine and 30,000 tons of threonine production line; the second phase of investment is 1.1 billion yuan, including 100,000 tons of lysine and 70,000 tons of threonine production line, and the two-phase project is completed After that, the production scale of 800,000 tons of starch per year, 200,000 tons of lysine per year, 100,000 tons of food-grade modified starch per year, 100,000 tons of threonine per year and 100,000 tons of starch sugar will be formed.

 

Meihua Bio: According to the announcement of Meihua Bio (600873) on the evening of July 11, the company plans to invest RMB 2.5-3.5 billion in the first phase of northwestern Jilin Province or western Heilongjiang to build a feed-level amino acid with an annual output of 400,000 tons and its supporting projects .
