The expanded agricultural trade deficit in recent years concern about the international competitiveness of Chinese agricultural products. In this paper, guided by Michael Porter's diamond model theory, based on agricultural production and trade data in China and the world from 1986 to 2011, we use principal component analysis, cointegration and vector error correction model, to perform an empirical analysis of the impact of agricultural modernization , economic growth and industrialization on the international competitiveness of Chinese agricultural products. The results show that China's agricultural modernization is slow, the demand for agricultural products caused by economic growth is increased, and excessive rural labor transfer due to industrialization leads to decline in the international competitiveness of Chinese agricultural products. China should increase its efforts to promote the modernization of agriculture and level of industry nurturing agriculture ; use WTO rules to create a good international and domestic environment for the development of China's agriculture and improvement of the international competitiveness of agricultural products; give full play to the role of demand n boosting the industrial upgrading of domestic agriculture.

On the basis of new characteristics and trend of China's agricultural development in the post-WTO period, combining analysis of factors influencing agricultural industrial safety, this paper builds an evaluation indicator system for China's agricultural industrial safety by scientific indicator system design method. This indicator system includes risk factor indicators( showing risk degree) and capacity factor indicators( showing guaranteeing ability), and consists of 7 subsystems: consumption safety, production safety, industrial controlling capacity, industrial development capacity, industrial development environment, government functions and industrial foundation condition. Risk factor is divided into 5 levels: higher risk, high risk, medium risk, low risk and lower risk; guarantee risk is also divided into five levels: strong, healthy, normal, weak and disabled. According to the overall evaluation score obtained from weighting sum, the agricultural industrial safety includes 5 types: very safe, safe, basically safe, not safe and hazardous. This evaluation indicator system is expected to providing theoretical reference for evaluating China's agricultural industrial safety. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
