China's Vegetable Exports The International Market Analysis
From the total trade point of view, the Commonwealth of Independent Trade Circle is a secondary market of China's vegetable exports, China's exports of this trade circle rising share of exports has increased, according to the United Nations Statistics Division data, since 1996, average annual growth of 22.5 %. In 2004, China this trade circle eight countries have vegetable exports, which exports tens of millions, only Russia and Ukraine came in second place with only 2.77 million U.S. dollars.
In recent years, trend analysis, the slow growth in demand for their vegetables, while the production to resume quickly, generally speaking, their vegetable supply and demand gap will remain at 200 million tons. Thus, while China's vegetable exports to the region has a comparative advantage, but because of the absolute volume of small, limited space in the regional market potential.
Experts believe that resources in determining the international competitiveness of vegetable products of long-term factors, and vegetable products to the international competitiveness should be reflected in more competitive advantage in the market, as the vegetable-producing countries of China, how resources and cost advantage into a competitive advantage and market dominance is the key. They suggested that China's vegetable exports according to the international market potential to take the following measures:
First, optimize the organizational structure of the export of vegetables. In order to increase the export competitiveness of vegetables, and avoid vicious competition and disorderly, we must increase the degree of farmers organizations, the Center is the vegetable industry of the organization. Can be based on the actual situation in order to Cooperation Organization, the leading enterprises in the form of demonstration zone and other farmers to organize themselves to drive their markets and organic food in accordance with international requirements to organize production. Continued to extend the industrial chain, the coordination of pre-, during, and post the interests of all aspects of the relationship between the formation of overall superiority.
The second is the establishment of coordination mechanism for the export of vegetables. Anti-dumping, green barriers and other measures are often aimed at the country's entire vegetable industry. The anti-dumping lessons at home and abroad have shown that individual enterprises are weak, the limited information available is difficult to deal with anti-dumping. Whether responding to foreign anti-dumping investigation on imported vegetables, or dumping allegations, we must rely on industry associations, in order to establish good coordination mechanism for the export of vegetables.
Third, optimize the structure of financial support for agriculture. Optimizing the financial structure of agriculture is the core of the framework of WTO rules to organic vegetables and processing industry in favor of policy support system, and efforts to improve the quality of the vegetables advantage. According to wto rules, through the establishment of the agricultural structure adjustment fund to provide low-interest loans, subsidies for capital construction of farmland. Vegetable export venture capital, export insurance subsidies, and other key support to vegetable quality inspection techniques, high-quality breeding, organic vegetable, vegetable post-harvest handling processing technology.
Fourth emphasizes the development of complementary competition in trade. China's vast territory, climate and diverse, suitable for a variety of vegetable growth, may be to maximize the relevance of land for planting vegetables, can effectively ensure the quality of products and vegetables, low-cost production, which is a large regional climate limitations of countries and regions are not available, take advantage of the natural greenhouse of tropical and southern subtropical climate resources, development-oriented East Asia, Europe, and North American countries and the CIS markets, vegetable exports; the use of high-latitude and high altitude summer cold climate resources, development-oriented Southeast Asia, the African market vegetable exports.
Fifth is to encourage the processing enterprises to go global. From the intra-industry trade point of view, should be seized in Europe, North America, the country imported more vegetables and vegetable industry trade is more common this opportunity to increase our fresh vegetables, and primary processing products for export support to and actively promote domestic vegetable processing enterprise go out and encourage its in Europe and North America to build their own processing and export base, thereby reducing the impact of technical barriers.
Ministry of Agriculture recently held in Hangzhou on the "national experience-sharing sessions vegetable exports," published material shows that China's vegetable exports to major international markets include East and Southeast Asia trade circle, the North American trade circle, the EU's trade circle and the CIS trade circle, in which EU trade circles and the North American trade, a huge circle of vegetables export potential space.
