Introduction: in the first half of this year, the EU made a decision to ban the clearance of animal derived food in China, which caused a great loss to China's agricultural exports After China's accession to the WTO, the open international market is not unimpeded, "green barrier" is becoming a new barrier "Green barrier" refers to the trade barrier that some countries, by virtue of their scientific and technological advantages, take the protection of environment and human health as the goal, through legislation or the formulation of strict mandatory technical regulations, restrict the access of foreign commodities In January this year, the European Union stopped the import of animal derived food in China, which directly affected Shandong's export earnings of 300 million US dollars Affected by this, Zhejiang Province reduced its export earnings by US $100 million in the first quarter of this year alone The grim facts show that although China's labor-intensive agricultural products have comparative advantages in price and great opportunities after China's accession to the WTO, price advantage does not equal competitive advantage The fundamental factor determining the international competitiveness of agricultural products is not price, but quality After China's accession to the WTO, the biggest challenge facing China's agriculture is the quality of agricultural products To improve the quality of agricultural products is a systematic project from the head of the field to the dining table, which needs a revolution of standardization construction in China's agriculture In order to effectively improve the international competitiveness of China's agricultural products, we must speed up the improvement of the quality standards of agricultural products, improve production technology, and improve the level of agricultural products processing The state should formulate the food safety and quality law as soon as possible, and focus on the construction of three systems, namely, the quality standard system of agricultural products, the quality inspection system of agricultural products and the quality certification system of agricultural products The essence of international agricultural product competition is the competition among large and transnational agricultural product processing and marketing enterprises China's farmers' production and management are low in organization, and the small production status of thousands of households makes the implementation of quality control and standards difficult to fully implement In order to break through the international "green barrier", China's agricultural products must improve the degree of agricultural organization, cultivate a dragon shaped economy connecting the domestic and foreign markets through industrialization, and form an organization system in which leading enterprises, professional cooperative organizations and professional farmers rely on each other Only in this way can we qualify for competition According to the current situation of Chinese enterprises, it is particularly necessary for the government to guide and serve them carefully The government should speed up the transformation of its functions and increase its support for agriculture; establish a unified, stable, standardized and efficient foreign trade management system for agricultural products as soon as possible, take measures to promote the rapid response and coordination of relevant government departments, and increase the strength of foreign negotiations; properly adjust the export tax policy, encourage enterprises to expand exports, and support a number of competitive agricultural products to export Export enterprises; speed up the establishment and improvement of agricultural insurance system; improve the inspection, quarantine and customs clearance of agricultural products; establish an international information release mechanism for agricultural products; establish a base for agricultural products to earn foreign exchange; actively develop and improve various export industry associations, professional cooperation organizations and intermediary organizations, strengthen mutual coordination and industry self-discipline, so as to maintain the interests of enterprises and open up the international market To play an important role in breaking through "green barriers" and settling trade disputes (author:) share to feed Weibo share to:
