Abstract

In the context of intensified global competition and increased uncertainty, enhancing the resilience of the agricultural product supply chain has become a key to ensuring the stability of the supply chain. This paper constructs an evaluation index system for the resilience of the agricultural product supply chain from five dimensions: resistance capability, adaptability, response capability, recovery capability, and learning capability. Taking six representative agricultural enterprises, namely X Company, B Company, M Company, H Company, W Company and Y Company, as the research objects, the entropy weight - TOPSIS method was used to measure and rank the resilience of the agricultural product supply chain from both individual indicators and comprehensive indicators, and to conduct an analysis. The research results show that this method can effectively assess the resilience of the agricultural product supply chain. Based on the research results, suggestions are proposed to achieve a comprehensive improvement of the resilience of the agricultural product supply chain in the digital technology context by increasing investment in digital technology, emphasizing talent cultivation and team building, and strengthening cooperation and collaboration among supply chain partners.
