We care deeply about the people who build our products, and the planet we all share. So we hold ourselves and our suppliers to the highest standards to ensure everyone is treated with dignity and respect. And we share our work openly so others can follow our lead.
Our supply chain is global. So is our responsibility.
Caiseed products are made all over the world.From planting, harvesting, seed sorting, to packaging and transportation, we work with suppliers to verify and evaluate whether our requirements are being implemented.
We keep raising our standards. And the industry’s, too.

The Caiseed Supplier Code of Conduct has always set high standards for the products produced. Suppliers must provide a safe, respectable workplace and protect the environment while ensuring product quality. This guideline applies to our partners at all levels and must be followed even if it exceeds local, regional and national laws.
Building opportunities for those who build our products.
Since 2000, we have provided education programs for more than 300 supplier employees. These programs enable people in our supply chain to learn new skills and promote their professional development, whether learning new technology or obtaining a degree.

Every year we will deepen the cooperation with suppliers to protect the earth. Together, we will save more energy and water, use safer organic fertilizers and biological control technologies, and eliminate waste through hands-on collaborative programs. As we push our suppliers towards best practices beyond themselves, we openly share what we have learned to accelerate the collective positive impact on the planet.
- The residue after the peanut oil is pressed is the plant's highest quality nitrogen source, which allows the beneficial bacteria in the land to multiply and restore the fertility of the land
We insist on using all organic fertilizers in the production process.
Only to better restore the original ecological balance of the land
All materials can be recycled and recycled, harmless to the environment, and do their utmost to avoid waste.
Less, less and less
- We have redesigned the isolation caps used in the process of hybrid watermelon seed production for suppliers. Using 100% recyclable materials - Recycled paper. The New isolation caps which is 70% smaller than traditional isolation caps, saving costs while reducing the burden on the environment.
- It is 100% recyclable material, friendly to the environment.
Pests like it more than leaves.
After years of research on the biological habits of a particular pest, we redesigned the physical armyworm board.
We've helped all of our suppliers, are using it in the entire process of production, pest control effect is significant, reducing the use of more than 70% of chemicals.
Save water resources, start from every bit.
By participating in the Caiseed Water Saving Program, suppliers saved up to 3,335,000 tons of irrigation water in 2018.
- Film drip irrigation facility improvement and binding mode can save more than 90% of the irrigation water.
Climate Change
Taking big steps toward a smaller carbon footprint.
Caiseed and its suppliers work together to reduce the overall carbon footprint of the products as much as possible. We require suppliers to use 100% natural energy, the sun, to dry our products. The use of the sun to dry seeds is a very primitive, very expensive, but environmentally friendly and energy-saving drying method. This drying method can even allow seeds to absorb a small amount of carbon dioxide in the air.
Creating a ripple effect that drives change.
Our commitment to people and the planet doesn’t end at our supply chain. We seek to be an example for others to follow, openly sharing our progress to accelerate industrywide change. And we’re proud of the global recognition we’ve received for our efforts. But we know our work will never be done, because we believe that if we aren’t finding ways to improve, we aren’t looking hard enough.
"We believe that enterprises can do more and better in environmental protection and humanistic care, just as our endless pursuit of higher quality."
