This article applied the constant market share (CMS) model to investigate the performance of China's export in agri‐food products from 1980‐96. The CMS results revealed a downward trend of China's competitiveness in agri‐food exports over the period under the study. Some evidence was found that trade policy reforms might have strengthened the tendency of decreasing competitiveness in China's export in agri‐food product. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
