Abstract: Based on extensive literature review and on-site survey, this paper explained the conception and connotation of the“Bohai Granary”. Applying SWOT(Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, and Threat) analysis, this paper also examined the background, present situation, research progress and key affecting factors of the“Bohai Granary”. Results show that, the barren and saline-alkali soil type, limited freshwater resource, science and technology, policy mechanism and the comprehensive benefit are the key influencing factors of the “Bohai Granary” construction. It is suggested that the following strategies can help to establish the“Bohai Granary”: 1) The market-oriented mechanism of benefit evaluation system should be established; 2) the government should take the leading role and the agricultural enterprises should play the prinapal status; 3) a strategic plan should be created to guide the long-term development of the “Bohai Granary”; 4) the agricultural industry chains should be improved according to local conditions; and 5) financial support should be increased to improve the facilities and to establish a subsidy system of grain production in saline and alkali land. Additionally, the government supervision and services should be strengthened to implement the preferential policies.
