Cheng Guoqiang analyzed that with the implementation of multilateral and bilateral trade agreements with relevant countries and regions, as well as the in-depth advancement of the "Belt and Road" strategy, the interaction and integration of domestic and foreign agricultural development and global agriculture will be significantly improved. If the "Belt and Road" promotes the formation of a regional integrated agricultural product market, it can connect the agricultural product market in Southwest China and the Indochina Peninsula, and establish a new food security system.
