A Supply Chain Collaboration Model For Agricultural Materials And Agricultural Products

Agricultural products have the characteristics of long lead time,perishable and unstable demand.Traditionally,agricultural products supply chain has the features of loose structure,unstable cooperation and low collaboration among different parties.Agricultural materials are the source of agricultural products,so agricultural materials supply chain is closely linked with agricultural products supply chain.Traditionally,agricultural materials supply chain has so many links,loose structure and poor circulation efficiency.After the increase of price from every retailer,the price of agricultural materials rise every year.It has direct influence on the cost of agricultural products.With the improvement of agriculture industrialization,the volume of leading enterprises and third party logistics enterprises increased every year,which cause the appearance of agriculture organization pattern.However,there still have so many agricultural problems,such as the safety and unsale of agricultural prodcuts,the false of agricultural materials.The mainly reason is that current organization pattern cannot solve the dual differentiation structure of agricultural materials and the intrinsic instability of agricultural products.Therefore,this paper focus on the topic of a supply chain collaboration model for designing a collaboration pattern and building a negotiation model for agricultural materails and products,to come ture the collaboration between agricultural materials and agricultural products,then increasing the progress of agricultural industrialization.The main researches and innovations of this paper are as follows:(1)This paper designed a collaboration pattern for agricultural material and agricultural products.Firstly,we introduced current organization patterns for agricultural materials and agricultural products respectively.According to the demand analysis,we designed a collaboration pattern supported by third party logistics enterprise based on analyzing the network structure,operation mechanism and support conditions.At last,we compared the collaboration pattern with current patterns for its advanteges.(2)This paper built an agent-based negotiation model for agricultural materials and agricultural products.At first,we analyzed the necessity and feasibility of combining the supply chain collaboration with agent-based negotiation.After that,we designed an agent-based negotiation framework and protocal for agricutral materials-products supply chain.According to different negotiation object,we designed different adaptive negotiation strategy,which includes evaluation function in terms ofintegrity and risk preferences,concession function in terms oftime and resources,and generation function in terms ofbehaviours.Then we designed the negotiation solving process.Finally,we built a final partner choosing model for the third party logistics enterprise based on the quantity relationship among all the parties.(3)This paper verified the effectiveness of the negotiation model by using a case study.Firstly,we introduced the network layout and current situations.Then we estabilshed a supply chain collaboration pattern supported by the third party logistics enterprise.Secondly,based on the preference information of farmers,supermarkets and agricultural materials suppliers,we verified the effectiveness of the negotiation model by simulation experiment.According to the simulation result,this paper designed a collaboration logistics planning for the third party logistics enterprise.
