Changhua farmers develop sustainable agriculture processes in Taiwan, needs to align with international standards
June 08, 2024 | CNA, Taiwan |
Changhua County, a major agricultural hub in Taiwan, is making strides in sustainability. Grape farmer Wu Wuming has adopted non-toxic cultivation methods to protect the land, despite lower and less stable yields. Meanwhile, coffee shop owner Zhang Zhimin in Changhua City is applying circular economy principles by turning coffee fruit skins into tea bags and using coffee grounds for mosquito coils and charcoal.
The county government is promoting agricultural environmental accounting to analyze and optimize environmental costs and benefits, aiming to achieve carbon reduction and zero-carbon goals. However, scholars like Huang Yaoming from Nanhua University emphasize the need for standardized procedures to accurately measure and achieve sustainability targets. Despite progress, standardization is crucial to align with international sustainability standards and enhance the effectiveness of these initiatives.
