However, Huang said the government has attached great importance to improving supply chain management, information and "green" techniques.
China has 4,370 wholesale markets nationwide, at which 70 percent of agricultural product trade happens.
"It will take the wholesale markets in big cities such as Beijing and Shanghai three to five years to meet advanced international standards," said Huang. "And those in less developed regions will take a much longer time."
Sompong Nimchuar, minister-counselor of the Thai Embassy in China, said China's plan to expand wholesale markets and attract foreign investment has brought more opportunities to Thai investors and farmers.
