BEIJING, Nov 6 (Reuters) - Chinese supply chain operator

and property developer Xiamen C&D said on Thursday

it had signed contracts totalling over $5.2 billion with seven

agribusinesses and trading houses including Cargill and Louis

Dreyfus Company in Shanghai.

The contracts signed covered soybeans, corn and cotton among

other goods, the Xiamen-based company said in statements

released on its Chinese social media account.

Xiamen C&D's deal with Cargill, a U.S. firm, would supply

the Chinese company's animal feed and food processing

businesses, according to one of the statements.

It was not immediately clear if the Cargill deal touches on

soybeans, a highly watched commodity after Washington said China

would resume purchases of U.S. soybeans as part of a trade truce

reached last month.

The Chinese firm's $2.5 billion deal with agricultural

commodity merchant Louis Dreyfus Company would help establish a

stable global agricultural supply network, it said in a

statement published on Wednesday.

Xiamen C&D's other contracts were signed with Swiss-based

Syngenta and U.S.-based CHS, as well as Olam

, BTG Pactual and Cutrale.
