Abstract: In order to overcome the problems of low on-time delivery rate and high distribution cost existing in the existing location methods of agricultural products logistics distribution centre, this paper proposes a new location method of agricultural products logistics distribution centre based on blockchain. Based on the analysis of the basic problems affecting the location of agricultural products logistics distribution centre, combined with the blockchain technology, the location model of agricultural products logistics distribution centre based on input-output ratio was constructed. Combining the idea of mountain climbing algorithm and particle swarm optimisation algorithm, the hybrid particle algorithm is used to solve the location model of agricultural products' logistics distribution centre, and the optimal location scheme is obtained. The experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively improve the on-time delivery rate, customer satisfaction, and reduce the logistics distribution costs. The maximum on-time delivery rate is 97.4%.
