Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (Edition 09, August 13, 2024)

Decision of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Further Comprehensively Deepening Reform and Promoting Chinese-Style Modernization Adopted at the Third Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee，We made major arrangements to improve institutions and mechanisms for promoting high-quality economic development，"Reform must be guided by a new development concept，Based on the new development stage，We will deepen supply-side structural reform，We will improve the incentive and restraint mechanisms for promoting high-quality development，Create new growth drivers and new advantages for development."。

High-quality development is the primary task for comprehensively building a modern socialist country。Since the 18th National Congress of the CPC, the CPC Central Committee has proposed and implemented new development concepts and focused on promoting high-quality development, and China's GDP has increased from 53 percent in 2012.The 9 trillion yuan has been raised to over 126 trillion yuan by 2023, achieving a medium-high annual growth rate of more than 6%. Basic research and original innovation have been strengthened, and China's economy has embarked on a path of higher quality, more efficient, fairer, more sustainable and safer development。For agriculture, the biggest hard truth is that to feed more than 1.4 billion people, we must focus on the core of ensuring the safe and stable supply of important agricultural products, and achieve better output and efficiency with fewer resources and inputs。

The plenum pointed out that high-quality development is the primary task of building a modern socialist country in an all-round way。We must guide reform with a new development vision, base ourselves on the new development stage, deepen supply-side structural reform, improve the incentive and restraint mechanisms for promoting high-quality development, and create new drivers and advantages for development。We need to improve the systems and mechanisms for developing new quality productive forces in light of local conditions, improve the systems for promoting deeper integration of the real economy and the digital economy, improve the systems and mechanisms for developing the service sector, improve the systems and mechanisms for developing modern infrastructure, and improve the systems for improving the resilience and safety of industrial and supply chains。

In my opinion, cold chain logistics of agricultural products, as a basic, strategic and leading industry, is linked to the production and consumption end of modern agriculture and food processing industry, and is an important starting point to extend the industrial chain, build a supply chain, and enhance the value chain, but also an important means to expand high-quality market supply and help rural revitalization。With the growing needs of the people for a better life, the continuous improvement of quality, refinement, diversification, and personalized service needs, and the continuous emergence of imported cold chain products, fresh e-commerce, community group buying, live delivery, prepared dishes and other new formats, promote the continuous innovation and development of the cold chain track。Under the guidance of national policies and driven by market demand, cold chain logistics of agricultural products in China has developed rapidly with strong momentum, and the scale, standardization and intelligent level have been continuously improved。但是，The existing cold chain logistics system of agricultural products in China is still difficult to support the growth of large-scale, cross-regional, anti-season and long-distance circulation demand of agricultural products.Accelerate the digital transformation, intelligent upgrading and green development of agricultural cold chain logistics，Energy saving and carbon reduction，It is a new challenge for the cold chain logistics industry to comprehensively improve the management service capability of cold chain logistics。

From field storage cold chain facilities, origin cold chain distribution center, cold chain logistics base, to sales cold chain distribution center, urban end cold chain facilities, this is a complete agricultural cold chain logistics chain, only by opening up each link, in order to effectively help agricultural efficiency, farmers to increase income, to improve the quality of people's lives escort。To this end, suggestions: First, increase the pre-cooling, processing, grading and other commercialization of agricultural products to improve the added value of agricultural products。The second is to accelerate the construction of storage and preservation facilities and distribution centers for agricultural products, solve the "first kilometer" of agricultural products, and improve the premium capacity of agricultural products。The third is to improve the conversion rate of agricultural products, transform fresh agricultural products into processed products that are easier to store, extend the shelf life, reduce economic losses, protect the interests of farmers, and promote the development of agricultural industry。
