Abstract :
There are numerous enterprises for agricultural products logistics in China. However, the survey found the efficiency, effectiveness and capability of most these enterprises are not performing well, less competitive power in this modern market economy. This result is caused by the very low level of industry organization in agricultural products. Then, the evolution of agricultural products logistics organization is analyzed. With ant colony algorithm of swarm intelligence, it is proposed that to build virtual enterprise in the horizontal for the agricultural products logistics operation, and to design dynamic alliance in the longitudinal for the agricultural products supply chain. At last, the algorithm and the simulation are discussed.
