Abstract: The farm produce logistics plays an important role in promoting the agricultural production and prosperity of the rural economy, so grasping the main factors influencing the development of farm produce logistics, is of important significance to accelerating the development of farm produce logistics. The values of identification coefficient in the grey relational analysis are taken based on the experience, so the accuracy of the results is affected. This article uses the improved fuzzy grey relational analysis to analyze the main factors influencing farm produce logistics. The results show that the number of storage companies has a great impact on the development of farm produce logistics, followed by the farm produce processing machinery capacity, rural transport infrastructure, farm produce market conditions and government financial support for agriculture, while the total number of Internet users in rural areas has an limited impact on the development of farm produce logistics.
