“…In addition to the buyback contract and wholesale price contract mentioned in the above literature, there are many other common contracts in the research. Examples include quantity flexibility contract [6], revenue sharing contract [7] [8], cost sharing contract [9], [10], quantity discount contract [11], option contract [12], [13], and sales rebate contract [14]. The study found that these contracts can help improve supply chain performance [4], [15], [16].…”

Fresh agricultural products constantly loss freshness during sales, and strategic consumers choose the optimal purchase timing according to the freshness and prices. In this paper, we introduce freshness-keeping effort to describe the retailer's freshness-keeping work, and provide a consumer utility function to describe strategic behavior. Additionally, we construct a dynamic decision-making model using the rational expectations equilibrium to improve the profits of each member. This study also designs a freshness-keeping cost-sharing and revenue-sharing contract to coordinate the supply chain. Finally, we verified the effectiveness of the model using numerical simulation. The results show that optimal order quantity and freshness-keeping effort under strategic consumers are lower than without strategic consumers. Second, prices during normal and discount periods are both positively correlated with valuation. In addition, the normal price is negatively correlated with order quantity and freshness-keeping effort, and discount price is positively correlated with order quantity. The correlation between discount price and freshness-keeping effort has a critical value, the discount price is positively correlated with freshness-keeping effort when below the critical effort, and negatively after exceeding the critical effort. Third, the combination contract can increase expected profits for both supplier and retailer, and help the decentralized supply chain achieve the expected profits of centralized supply chain.INDEX TERMS Fresh agricultural products, freshness-keeping effort, strategic consumers, dynamic decision-making, rational expectations equilibrium, supply chain coordination.

The new retail focuses on the high integration between online and offline channels. The main problems faced by the development of the new retail are the interest balance of all decision subjects, the pricing strategy, and the coordination of online and offline channels. This paper considers the effect of the new retail firms’ delivery time and establishes a two-part tariff contract to study the decision-making and coordination of the new retail fresh products supply chain. This paper constructs cooperative and non-cooperative models and employs the cooperative model as the benchmark case to realize the coordination. It is found that when the delivery time has little effect on the market demand, the offline store often should pay more fixed charges to the new retail firm. With the increased impact of delivery time on market demand, the fixed charges paid by the offline store become smaller. Under the coordination decision model, the offline store pays fixed charges to compensate for the new retail firm’s early delivery costs, but its interests still increase compared with the decentralized decision model. This study models the time-dependent demand for fresh products and proposes an incentive mechanism to coordinate the new retail fresh products’ supply chain; further, it demonstrates that the prices can be significantly decreased with the designed contract, and all the supply chain members can benefit from Pareto improvement.

“…As a large country producing and selling fresh agricultural products, China is also one of the largest carbon emission countries in the world [ 8 ]. At the same time, fresh agricultural products have the characteristics of easy deterioration and seasonality [ 9 – 12 ], their preservation has become a difficult problem in the process of production, transportation and sales [ 13 , 14 ]. With the intensification of the national market competition and the improvement of low-carbon awareness, the fresh agricultural products industry urgently needs to expand the low-carbon market, so reducing carbon emissions and expanding the market demand for fresh agricultural products is one of the issues worthy of in-depth research [ 15 , 16 ].…”

With the development of low-carbon economy and the dominant position of retailers, through the establishment and comparison of three cooperative advertising models: model of supplier’s independent advertising, model of supplier’s independent advertising and model of retailer’s and supplier’s cooperative advertising, this paper studies the cooperative advertising decision-making of fresh agricultural products supply chain with two channels, and the demand of both channels is affected by the level of advertising investment, the proportion of advertising cost sharing and the efficiency of carbon emission reduction. The results show that when supplier and retailer adopt the two-way cooperative advertising mode, the demand and profit level of the two channels reach the optimal level. Numerical analysis shows that carbon emission reduction efficiency has an important impact on profits and market demand, which is closely related to cooperative advertising strategy.
