What are the main reasons why China's agricultural exports encounter non-tariff trade barriers?

In essence, non-tariff barriers to agricultural exports are a means of trade protection. As China is a traditional agricultural country, this paper analyzes the present situation and causes of non-tariff barriers, and on this basis, puts forward some countermeasures to avoid non-tariff barriers in China's agricultural exports.

The essence of non-tariff trade barriers, especially green trade barriers, is to protect domestic products in the name of environmental protection, especially in some developed countries in international trade. In the process of implementing green trade barriers, these trade barriers have even evolved into technical barriers to restrict foreign products from entering the country for specific purposes and protect the trade of domestic products. China is a traditional agricultural country, and agricultural products, as one of the traditional export products with comparative advantages in China, bear the brunt of the impact of green trade barriers, especially labor-intensive products with traditional advantages such as vegetables, fruits and aquatic products. How to better avoid the damage caused by green trade barriers to China's agricultural exports is worthy of our deep thinking and exploration.
