Analysis of the Impact of Japan's Positive List System on Chinese Mushrooms

Since Japan implemented the positive list system in 2006, The amount and quantity of mushroom exported from China to Japan are decreasing. The export of mushroom in China has been hit hard. This article uses panel data for each quarter of China from 2005 to 2018.By constructing the corresponding virtual variable measurement model, the paper analyzes the impact of Japan's implementation of the positive list system on China's export of mushrooms to Japan. Empirical results show, China's GDP and the exchange rate of RMB against Japan have a positive correlation with the export value of shiitake mushrooms, but the impact is not significant. However, the market price and positive list system of shiitake mushrooms have a negative correlation with the export value of shiitake mushrooms. The higher the price of mushrooms, the smaller the export value, and the stricter the system will also reduce the export volume, and the impact of these two factors is more significant. Comprehensive research, from the aspects of enterprise management model, the role of industry associations and the coordination of management functions of the government, we propose relevant countermeasures to promote China's export of Japanese shiitake mushrooms under the affirmative list system.
