Features: With the acceleration of commoditization, technological innovation, and economic growth in modern society, commodities are showing trends and characteristics such as knowledge-based, software-based, service-oriented, and ecological-oriented development. Commodity research is no longer limited to the combination of "demand," "technology," and "economy," but is evolving toward a comprehensive integration of "demand," "technology," "economy," "culture," and "environment." These developments have expanded the scope and depth of commodity studies, particularly in the areas of service-oriented, culturally-focused, and ecologically-oriented commodity development, quality and standard management, and consumer guidance. This book is the culmination of the author's careful summary of over 20 years of experience in commodity textbook development. Building upon the reasonable system and content of previously published textbooks, the author considered the requirements of China's integration into the global economic system and the transformation of its economic growth model. The book incorporates the latest research findings from experts and scholars in commodity studies and related disciplines both domestically and internationally, supplementing new theoretical and practical knowledge. Additionally, new explorations have been made in both content and system design. While maintaining the systematicity, scientific rigor, timeliness, and applicability of the textbook, it also strives to meet the new goals and requirements for talent cultivation in the new era.
