China's Cheese Market Gravitational Effects and Trade Prospects of Partner Countries——China and Europe as an Example
Faced with the unprecedented changes in the world,the uncertainty of cheese trade is intensifying,which seriously threatens the balance of supply and demand of cheese in China.Based on the stochastic frontier gravity model and the dominant competitive advantage index,this paper predicts the trade prospects of cheese be-tween China and Europe.The results of the study prove that there exists an uneven distribution of efficiency in cheese trade between China and Europe,and large gap in the trade prospects of different countries.As suggested by the stochastic frontier gravity model,population size and GDP per capita on both sides are important for boosting the cheese trade between China and Europe,but the distance between the two sides is hindering the trade.There is a contribution to trade efficiency by government spending,business freedom and investment freedom,but there is a hindrance to cheese trade efficiency by government integrity,tax burden,trade freedom and producer prices.In or-der to improve the efficiency of China-Europe cheese trade,China should adopt a heterogeneous import strategy for countries with different trade prospects,construct an accessible and interconnected trade environment,and cre-ate a free business institutional environment to promote the efficiency of China-Europe cheese trade and guarantee the security of China's cheese trade.
