본 연구에서는 기존 연구와는 차별적으로 중국산 농산물에 대한 한국의 소비자들의인식이 성별, 학력별, 소득별, 연령별, 직업별, 거주지역별로 구분하여 볼 때 차이가있는지를 분석해 보고, 중국 농산물의 한국 소비시장에서의 경쟁력 요인을 파악해보고자 한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 중국산 농산물에 대한 한국 소비자들의 인식을 설문조사 한 내용을 토대로 ANOVA 분석을 진행하고자 한다.
본 연구에 있어서 한국의 소비자들이 중국산 농산물에 대해서 몇 가지 기준 측면에서 통계적으로 유의미한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타날 경우 중국산 농산물의 한국 소비시장에 있어서의 경쟁력은 성별, 학력별, 소득별, 연령별 등 각 분석요인의 차이에 의해서 달리 나타날 수 있다고 볼 수 있다. 또한 설문 조사 문항에 대하여 통계적 유의성이 없는 것으로 나타날 경우 분석 요인의 차이는 중국산 농산물의 인식 차이에 큰영향을 미치지 못하며, 해당 설문 문항에 대한 주요 응답자의 누적빈도가 많은 답변위주로 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 해석할 수 있다.
종합적으로 볼 때, 중국산 농산물에 대한 인식의 차이에 영향을 미치는 주요 요인변수를 보면 연령과 직업, 거주지역으로 나타났으며, 상대적으로 성별, 학력 차이는 영향이 적은 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 중국산 농산물의 한국 소비시장에서의 경쟁력은한국 소비자들의 연령, 직업, 거주지역 등에 의해서 영향을 받는 것으로 풀이할 수 있다. 정부의 중국 농산물에 대한 정책대응도 이러한 소비자 인식에 영향을 미치는 변수를 고려해서 보다 구체적으로 수립되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.
The purpose of this study is to analyze the differences of Korean consumers’ perceptions of Chinese agricultural products by gender, educational background, income, age, occupation, and residence area, We will try to understand the competitive factors of Chinese agricultural products in the Korean consumer market. Therefore, in this paper, the ANOVA analysis will be conducted based on the questionnaire survey of Korean consumers’ perception of Chinese agricultural products.
The main items of the questionnaire according to the purpose of the research are purchase experience and recommendation intention for Chinese agricultural products, assessment of the price level of Chinese agricultural products and the share rate of Korean agricultural products market, Identification to the differentiation of raw materials, taste and flavor of Chinese and Korean agricultural products, the impact of image change to the China on cognition to the Chinese agricultural products, the satisfaction and reliability of the quality and safety of Chinese agricultural products, and so on. This study analyzes whether there are statistically significant differences in the perception of Korean consumers by gender, education, income, age, occupation, and residence area.
In this study, when Korean consumers have a statistically significant difference in terms of some criteria for Chinese agricultural products, The competitive power of Chinese agricultural products in the Korean consumer market can be differentiated by the difference of analysis factors such as gender, educational background, income, and age.
In addition, when there is no statistical significance on the questionnaire items, the difference of analysis factors does not affect the recognition difference of Chinese agricultural products, the cumulative frequency of the main respondents to the questionnaire items can be interpreted as having an effect mainly on the answers.
In this study, we conducted a questionnaire survey and ANOVA analysis for Korean consumers about Chinese agricultural products. Based on these studies, Korean consumer perceptions of the Chinese agricultural products differ according to age, income, occupation, and other factors. Therefore, based on this research, it is necessary that the government’s agricultural policies to the Chinese agricultural products should be established specifically in the microscopic level.
The main analysis contents of this study are summarized as follows.
First, in terms of gender, it is analyzed that they have a common perception without gender discrimination.
Second, by age group, age related differences were found to be significant among 16 questionnaires of Chinese agricultural products. There was a significant difference in age-specific perceptions Third, the effect of the income difference of Korean consumers on the recognition of Chinese agricultural products is not significant.
Fourth, by the occupation, the perception difference was significant in the 10 items of questionnaire, the differences in the perception of Chinese agricultural products in 13 items were significant. This is because urban consumers and rural residents are perceived to have a big difference in perception of Chinese agricultural products, as revealed by the characteristics of the survey.
Overall, age, occupation and residence were the major factors influencing perceptions of Chinese agricultural products, gender and educational background were not relatively affected. Therefore, it can be concluded that the competitiveness of Chinese agricultural products in the Korean consumer market is influenced by the age, occupation and residence of Korean consumers.
