China’s dairy market is a huge volume, but compared with developed countries, the amount of per capita dairy consumption is seriously insufficient. How to take advantage of industrial scale, industrial resources, industrial technology and industrial policy to promote the layout of China's dairy industry and enhance the competitiveness of the dairy industry is an important theoretical problem. This research aims to explore that how industry resources, industrial technology and industrial scale affect the industry distribution, and how the industrial policies could affect the industry distribution. This thesis is to describe and analyze development of China's dairy industry, and verify the influence of industrial resources, industrial technology, and industrial scale on the layout of China's dairy industry through provincial panel data. This thesis also attempts to test the moderating effect of industrial policies on the layout of China's dairy industry.
