Food security is a challenge across the board, especially since the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. The experience of many countries shows that seeds are one of the key factors for increasing food production. Integration into global value chain development is a trend in the current development of the seed industry. China's seed market is huge, but there is still a gap between Chinese seed companies and the world's seed powerhouses. In this paper, it analyzes the value chain upgrading dilemma of Chinese seed companies and find out the suggestions for their value chain upgrading.
