    Subsidiary farms repeatedly fined for environmental violations including wastewater leaks

    In 2019, wastewater from the pig farm of the Lianzhou Branch of Guangdong Huanong Wens Animal Husbandry Co., Ltd. seeped into Huangqiao Water, and the Lianzhou Branch of the Qingyuan Municipal Ecology and Environment Bureau fined it RMB 150,000 (Lianhuanfa Zi [2019] No. 23). In 2025, the Yingde Yuwan dairy farm of Zhaoqing Dinghu Wens Dairy Co., Ltd. was ordered to rectify and proposed to be fined RMB 90,000 after wastewater leaked from an irrigation transfer pond. Xinhua's Economic Information Daily reported in 2026 that from 2022 to 2024 Wens subsidiaries received a total of 30 environmental penalties and fines exceeding RMB 3.56 million, and since 2025 at least four subsidiaries were fined again more than RMB 610,000. Wens's net profit in 2025 fell by more than 40%, and media attention has focused on subsidiaries' compliance risks.
