Research On The International Competitiveness Of Chinese Onion

Onion is a kind of world-wide vegetable.It has a long history of cultivation,is adaptable,resistant to storage and easy to transport.The onion has rich nutritional value and has gradually become an indispensable food on people's table.China is the world's leading producer of onions.In recent years,China's total onion production ranks among the top in the world,and the yield per unit of production exceeds the world average.Onion production ranks sixth in China's various vegetable production rankings,occupying an important position.China is also one of the world's leading exporters of onions.In 2017,China's fresh or chilled onion exports ranked third in the world,and exports ranked second.At the same time,onion is the second most important place in China's vegetable export market,and it will become one of the important industries for China's export earnings.Therefore,the analysis of the international competitiveness of onions is conducive to China's onion based on the international market,promoting China's gradual move to a strong trade country,and also plays an important role in promoting China's agricultural production and farmers' income.This study firstly analyzed the production status of onion,onion main producing countries and Chinese onions by analyzing the total onion yield,yield level and harvested area.Secondly,through the analysis of onion export and import scale and export structure and market of the world,major import and export countries of onions and China,the preliminary understanding of the trade status of onion has been provided,and data support for the analysis of onion international competitiveness has been provided.Then through the analysis of international market share,net export index,trade competitiveness index,display comparative advantage index and onion export price,the international competitiveness level of Chinese onion products was measured.Although international competitiveness ranks among the top in the world,there is still much room for improvement in the status of the international market.Finally,through the establishment of the trade gravity model,the main factors affecting the international competitiveness of China's onions are calculated.The GDP of China and trading partners,the exchange rate of the US dollar against the RMB,and the distance between China and its trading partners have significant influence on the international competitiveness of China's onions..Through the analysis and analysis of the status quo of production and trade,the measurement of China's onion international competitiveness index and the analysis of the factors affecting the competitiveness of China's onion international,this study proposes the following countermeasures: stabilize the onion harvest area and increase the production efficiency of onion;Invest in scientific research,improve the quality of export products;coordinate the export ratio,increase the export of processed onion products;stabilize the existing market,actively explore new markets;rationally resolve trade frictions and break trade barriers.The main innovations of this paper are as follows: First,this study is based on the data of production and trade of the world's major onion countries in recent years,establishing a trade gravity model and studying the international competitiveness of onions.The amount of research data is large,and the research results can be The reliability is higher.Second,this study divides onion export products into fresh or frozen onions and onions,which can be used to understand the status of Chinese onions in the international market.
