| Agricultural and rural modernization is an important part of Chinese modernization.In his report to the Twentieth National Congress of the CPC,General Secretary Xi Jinping stressed the need to comprehensively promote rural revitalization,accelerate the promotion of agricultural and rural modernization,and lay a solid foundation for Chinese modernization.The development of agricultural cold chain logistics is still the supporting condition for agriculture in China.According to the 14th Five-Year Plan for the Development of Agricultural Cold Chain Logistics,a modern cold chain logistics system shall be built in 2035[1].Since ancient times,Sichuan and Tibet have been neighboring areas with frequent circulation of agricultural products.The establishment of transportation systems including the Sichuan-Tibet Highway in modern times has brought new changes to the circulation of Sichuan-Tibet agricultural products.At present,Sichuan-Tibet region as an agricultural production-based area,agricultural circulation demand,the improvement of cold chain logistics system is urgent.Therefore,it is of great theoretical and practical significance to deeply analyze the problems and main restricting factors of the development of the cold chain logistics of fresh agricultural products in Sichuan-Tibet region.Through field investigation and interview on the development of the cold chain logistics of fresh agricultural products in Sichuan-Tibet region,this paper identifies four factors affecting the cold chain logistics of fresh agricultural products in Sichuan-Tibet region,namely,policy factors（national and regional policies,relevant rules and regulations,etc.）,hardware factors（environmental conditions,infrastructure,etc.）,software factors（humanities,science and technology,etc.）and main factors（enterprise development and operation,etc.）.Through the investigation of Sichuan Cold Chain Logistics Park,it is found that there are not many Cold Chain Logistics enterprises with certain scale at present.From 2015 to 2020,the per capita income of Sichuan-Tibet has increased by more than 60%,while the output of fresh agricultural products has increased by 43.77%in 2010-2020,and is expected to continue to grow in the next five years.Therefore,the demand for the cold chain logistics of fresh agricultural products in Sichuan-Tibet region is increasing rapidly,and there are supply shortages in each link of the cold chain logistics,such as professionals,basic roads,refrigerated warehouses,refrigerated trucks,etc.Although the business model has shown the characteristics of diversification,but still take the self-management logistics as the main model,but the development of the third party cold chain logistics model is relatively lagging behind,there is still a certain distance from the advanced cold chain development areas,infrastructure and supporting conditions need to be improved.Through analytic hierarchy process,it is found that the proportion of main factors is 53.83%,which is the most serious one.The number of professional cold chain logistics technical talents（19.25%）,the number of market-oriented cold chain logistics leading enterprises（16.01%）,the technical level of cold storage and freezing（13.91%）,the operating cost of cold chain logistics（11.06%）,the awareness of cold chain logistics（7.60%）,the impact of changes in upstream and downstream industries of cold chain logistics（7.50%）,the supervision system of cold chain logistics（6.05%）,the degree of informatization（5.62%）and other indicators account for 85%of the total ratio,which is the bottleneck in the development of cold chain logistics for fresh agricultural products in Sichuan and Tibet.The Sichuan-Tibet region shall strengthen the cultivation of cold-chain talents,intensify the development of third-party cold-chain logistics enterprises,improve the level of cold-chain logistics technology,reduce the operating costs of cold-chain logistics enterprises,enhance the cold-chain awareness of the relevant subjects of cold-chain logistics,enhance the stability of upstream and downstream industries of cold-chain logistics,strengthen the supervision and regulation of cold-chain logistics,and enhance the construction of information technology to provide theoretical support and decision-making reference for the cold-chain logistics system for fresh agricultural products in Sichuan-Tibet region. |
