Wu Di, a Jilin provincial CPPCC member, says that the province’s agriculture business needs to be considered a pillar of the economy, just as automobiles and petrochemicals are, and this means a nationwide marketing network for its produce, complete with exhibitions, designated supermarkets and e-commerce.

Wu proposes, "Farmers could depend on the market to see what consumers want after a logistics network is established, which in turn, helps farmer’s better serve consumers and their needs."
