| Outline of Research at the Start |
The research will use a case study to compare developed countries and developing counties as importing markets of agriculture and food products from standard compliance perspective. The differences and how they will affect exporting countries will be studied.
|
| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
Following the plan made in the first year, work continued corresponding to the two parts. 1. background and literature part. Further exploration of key trading products and partners, I have conducted field investigations in China and in Europe to collect first-hand information in addition to literature. 2. data part. The Chinese port rejection data are organized and used for some preliminary analysis. The U.S. market data is still under cleaning up. Problems of compatibility has developed. Several solutions and alternative methods have been prepared.

Current Status of Research Progress
3: Progress in research has been slightly delayed.
Reason
Due to the U.S. trade data cleaning up problem reported previously, the research has been a bit delayed than planned. To solve the data problem, I am looking for alternative data source while re-organizing the data so as to be matchable with the Chinese data. If the data problem could not be solved, another analysis methods with a different model is also being considered. I am going to continue working on this problem. The coming year's work plan will also be adjusted to incorperate the data problem.
|
| Strategy for Future Research Activity |
More field investigation will be conducted. This year the focus will be the U.S. market as the importer. So I will visit various stakeholders in the U.S. and the USDA and trade services for alternative data. China will be visited again as the major trading partner. A third partner country will also be visited accordingly to broaden and deepen the research scope.
Further data matching work with preliminary anaylsis will be done. Based on the datasets, various economic models will be applied.
