Cold chain logistics is vast

Pingxiang recently learned that the Friendship Gate Port in recent years also imports large quantities of fruits and ASEAN countries, which makes long-term Pu Village, "the country's largest fruit import port," the fruit dealers under great competitive pressure. However, that they are more worried about is the preservation due to the low level of technology, a hot day, long road transport, not many fruits shipped out on time, product quality is affected.

This involves the cold chain logistics issues. Cold Chain Logistics is under refrigerated and frozen foods in the production, storage and transportation, sales to all aspects of the consumer will always be in front of a predetermined low temperature environment, in order to ensure food quality and reduce food losses in industrial engineering. Cold chain logistics especially for agricultural products, including vegetables, fruits, meat, poultry, eggs, aquatic products, floral products, ice cream, dairy products, fast-food raw materials, medicines and so on.
In fact, cold chain logistics already exist, layman's terms, that is, the supply of the product to be refrigerated to ensure safety. Because of perishable food has a strong timeliness, it requires cold chain each link has a higher organizational coordination, if a certain part of the cold chain was broken, would affect the product quality, thereby affecting people's lives and health.

In a sense, the level of the cold chain logistics industry determine the quality of food products. In the case of cold chain logistics industry backward, not yet reached the maturity to rush some agricultural harvest, consumers eat the semi-mature product. One often to Thailand businessman told the author that he tasted the taste of Thai origin durian durian, mangosteen, unlike in the domestic market sales of durian, mangosteen flavor.
China - ASEAN Free Trade Area since the construction of cold chain logistics developed rapidly, for example, the daily import of frozen seafood from Dongxing Port tens of tons from the previous to the current 200 tons. It is wher the dealers to reflect, compared with a decade ago, the ASEAN countries are now entering the frozen seafood quality is getting better, because freezing technology has been greatly enhanced.

However, overall, the development of China and ASEAN cold chain logistics industry is still in its infancy. Since the first China-ASEAN cooperation in various areas of cooperation of the UN agriculture, the development of bilateral trade of agricultural products will be a great space, but its precondition is that the two sides on how to further develop cold chain logistics industry.

At present, the Chinese cold chain logistics is in rapid growth phase, but our cold chain and management techniques are still low. China fresh food loss rate ranks first in the world, according to the China Food Industry Association data show that China due to the problems caused by the cold chain l200 tons of waste each year about 130 million tons of fruits and vegetables, worth at $ 10 billion.

"China Cold Chain Logistics Development Report" (2014 version) stated that the cold chain environment, the trend continues to improve. 2015 is the "agricultural Cold Chain Logistics Development Plan" implemented in the last year, the next five-year plan will be in the cold chain infrastructure, standardization cold chain, cold chain environment fair, cold chain and other aspects of tax relief will be strengthened . It is foreseeable, including China - ASEAN, including cold chain logistics development space is very broad.

New ASEAN members Vietnam, Laos, Myanmar, Cambodia and Thailand, is an agricultural country, but also the Chinese neighbors, bilateral agricultural trade has a certain basis, in the context of "along the way" building the future of trade between China and these countries, agriculture still accounts important role, import and export of agricultural products, food, medicines amount will increase. Meanwhile, the state support for cross-border e-commerce development, aviation, maritime and port cold chain, cold chain will benefit from the airport, so as to create a more favorable environment for China and ASEAN cold chain logistics.
