Furthermore, we strengthen research and development capacity and efficiency by facilitating scientific and technological collaboration, training, and exchanges; we possess full awareness of the agricultural epidemics information of the district, emphasize crisis management, and rapidly and effectively resolve related problems. Lastly, we assist in the investigation of natural disasters in thedistrict and provide counseling for postdisaster crop and industry rehabilitation to reduce farmers’ losses and to enable rapid resumption of production to stabilize market supply and demand.
Our station adopted the blue ocean strategy to develop the professional field, dividing the field into the development of organic food, promotion of health and safety, and provision of counseling for the aboriginal agricultural industry. The objective is to realize the core values of a station that is “small but powerful.”
