In Taiwan, the Miaoli District Agricultural Improvement Station collaborated with Taiwan Yi Ecological Leisure Farm to achieve a significant milestone: obtaining the country's first carbon footprint label for strawberries. This label documents the carbon emissions from production to disposal, promoting green consumption and sustainable agricultural practices. The initiative aims to guide farmers in reducing carbon emissions, focusing on critical areas like fertilizer use and irrigation efficiency. Supported by the Ministry of Agriculture, the project underscores Taiwan's commitment to environmental stewardship and encourages more farms to adopt carbon footprint assessments and reduce their environmental impact.
