Analyst Opinion

The Agriculture market in China has been experiencing significant growth in recent years, driven by a combination of factors such as changing customer preferences, growing demand for food, and favorable government policies.

Customer preferences:
Chinese consumers are becoming increasingly health-conscious, and as a result, there is a growing demand for organic and natural food products. This has led to a shift towards more sustainable farming practices and increased investment in research and development to produce more environmentally friendly and healthier food products.

Trends in the market:
One of the most significant trends in the Agriculture market in China is the increasing adoption of precision farming techniques. Precision farming involves using technology such as drones and sensors to optimize crop yields and reduce waste. This approach is becoming increasingly popular as farmers seek to improve efficiency and reduce costs.Another trend in the market is the growing use of e-commerce platforms to sell agricultural products. Online marketplaces such as Alibaba's Tmall and JD.com have become popular channels for farmers to sell their products directly to consumers. This has helped to reduce costs and increase access to a wider customer base.

Local special circumstances:
China is a vast country with a diverse range of agricultural practices and products. The country's agriculture industry is heavily influenced by regional differences in climate, soil type, and cultural traditions. For example, rice is the staple food in southern China, while wheat is more commonly grown in the north.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
China's growing middle class and increasing urbanization are driving demand for high-quality food products. This has led to a shift towards more intensive and industrialized farming practices, which has raised concerns about food safety and environmental sustainability. As a result, the government has introduced a range of policies to promote sustainable agriculture and reduce pollution.Another important macroeconomic factor is China's ongoing trade tensions with the United States. The trade war has led to a decline in Chinese imports of agricultural products from the United States, which has created opportunities for other countries to increase their exports to China. This has led to a shift in global agricultural trade patterns and increased competition in the Chinese market.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2B. Figures are based on the value of gross production in the agriculture market, which values of production are calculated by multiplying gross production by output prices at the farm gate.

Modeling approach:

Market sizes are determined through a bottom-up approach, building on specific predefined factors for each market. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use resources from the Statista platform as well as annual financial reports of the market-leading companies and industry associations, third-party studies and reports, national statistical offices, international institutions, and the experience of our analysts. In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, consumer spending, and consumer price index.

Forecasts:

In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing are well suited for forecasting agriculture products due to the non-linear growth of this market, especially because of the direct impact of climate change on the market.

Additional notes:

The data is modeled using current exchange rates. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. The market is updated twice a year.
