While Taiwan is known today as a high-tech powerhouse, its farming and fishery sectors have produced wonders in their own right. Taiwan’s farmers have successfully transitioned to a modern export-oriented economy by applying state-of-the-art techniques and technologies and diversifying into high value-added products. Taiwan boasts a broad variety of climatic zones, rich soil and dedicated, knowledgeable farmers, producing a remarkable array of fruits, vegetables and grains. Also, conscientious application of appropriate science and technology has led to the development of rearing high-end aquaculture products, high-quality seeds and seafood processing technology. In 2017, Taiwan’s agricultural production exceeded 528 billion New Taiwan Dollars, of which farm crops accounted for 51%, livestock for 32%, and fishery products for 17%.
