The Identification of Risk Factors for Logistics Loss of Fresh Agricultural Products Based on Grounded Theory
Publication: ICTE 2019
ABSTRACT
The logistics loss of fresh agricultural products in the circulation process is a risk caused by uncertain factors. In this paper, it is the factors and production mechanism of logistics loss of fresh agricultural products that are studied by using the method of grounded theory. It continuously implements open coding, axial coding, and selective coding to construct the recognition model of risk factors for loss of fresh agricultural products. It summarizes four main categories including the ability of logistics performance, management, elements security, and loss transfer control. It also explains the mechanism of its generation and the logical relationship between them. The research works to extend the method of loss risk identification.
