Abstract
In order to analyze the correlation characteristics between the Chinese agriculture price and food price, the grey relational analysis is applied in it. Firstly, the basic situation of agricultural price and food price is discussed. Secondly, the basic theory of grey relational analysis is studied and the corresponding algorithm is designed. Thirdly, the food price index and seven agricultural price indexes are used as the analysis variables and the corresponding correlation analysis is carried out based on grey relation analysis and results show the relationship between food price and other agricultural prices.
