The complex production processes and long industrial chain in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) market result in difficulty in Chinese market microstructure research. Based on the defining the logical relationships among different concepts. This paper divides TCM market into two stages as Chinese materia medica resource market and traditional Chinese Patent Medicines market. Under this foundation, we investigated the supply capacity, approaching rules and motivation system of suppliers in TCM market, analyzed the demand situation in the perspective of demand side, and evaluated the purchasing power in terms of population profile, income, and insurance. Furthermore we also analyzed the price formation mechanism in two stages of TCM market. We hope this study can make a positive and promotion effect on TCM market related research.
中药市场复杂的生产流程和漫长的产业链导致中国市场微观结构研究困难。基于定义不同概念之间的逻辑关系，本文将中药市场划分为中药材资源市场和中成药市场两个阶段。在此基础上，我们调查了中药市场供应商的供应能力、接近规则和激励体系，从需求方角度分析了需求情况，并从人口特征、收入和保险方面评估了购买力。此外，我们还分析了中药市场两个阶段的价格形成机制。我们希望这项研究能对中药市场相关研究产生积极的促进作用。
