Abstract: Based on the description statistics of export trade scale, export trade structure, and export trade competitiveness, this paper uses the grey correlation analysis to evaluate the level of development of China's agricultural export with five Central Asian countries. The study found that China's export trade of agricultural products to the five Central Asian countries is expanding, and the export trade structure is not only optimized, however, the trade potential is huge. The export trade competitiveness has comparative advantages in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Uzbekistan.

Therefore, China and five central Asian countries in should actively carry out agricultural economic and trade cooperation, optimize the agricultural structure and trade structure, make overall use of the international market and domestic market, and continuously improve the level of agricultural product development.
