China’s national supply-and-marketing cooperative system released its 15th
Five-Year development plan, prioritizing food security and rural revitalization
and setting 18 key tasks. As the main agricultural-input distribution channel,
the system will focus on network construction and green development to
strengthen supply and price stability. The plan targets construction or
renovation of about 100 national strategic agricultural-input (reserve)
warehouses and roughly 1,000 county-level agricultural-input distribution
centers over the five-year period. For 2026 — the plan’s first year — the
cooperatives aim to build or upgrade about 20 national strategic warehouses and
200+ county distribution centers to establish a more efficient
agricultural-input distribution network and safeguard national food security.
