Based on the analysis of the characteristics of regional agricultural products logistics, a model with multi-objective is proposed to describe the problem. In order to find the optimal results of the model, the ant colony optimization algorithm is used in the study to calculate the model. A numerical experiment is presented to show the validity of the model and the algorithm. The results indicate that the performance of the agricultural products supply chain can be improved by the model. It is suggested that the improved model is an efficient mechanism to manage the logistics of regional agricultural products.]]>Attiya, G. and Y. Hamam,20066612591266Barcos, L., V. Rodriguez, M.J.
