Last year's big balls (15 kilograms) high price of 270 yuan per bag of domestic onions, in the face of a sharp drop in prices this year, the producing price halved, each bag only 150 yuan. Although it is nearing the end of the harvest season, delivery trucks full of onions are still busy on the roads in Pingtung, with a heavy burden on the producing area.

According to the statistics of the Agriculture and Food Department, the planting area of onions this year has increased by more than 100 hectares over last year, and about 72000 metric tons of domestic onions are in circulation on the market, an increase of 22 percent over previous years. The harvest periods of onions in the middle and south overlap, a large number of fresh onions are pouring into the market at the same time, waiting for sale urgently, and the cold storage in various districts is also full, making it difficult to adjust and alleviate.

Why on earth did the regulation and control of the warehousing of the origin fail? How should the onion market be stable? "upstream and downstream" made on-the-spot visits to producing areas, large plate merchants of onions in Pingtung, and farmers' associations in various districts, hoping to solve the plight of domestic onions from production, marketing, and warehousing.

Break through unstable production and marketing? The basic method of mind: if you give it to someone, you should have confidence in your heart.

Hsieh Hsin-hui believes that access roads must be operated in a long-term and stable way. Most of the farmers who have problems this time are those whose back-end channels have not been discussed. "some people saw that everyone made a lot of money last year, but this year there were many kinds of top six or seven, but they didn't even talk about how to sell them. I can't help it until now."

From the perspective of the business model of the Daiwa Onion production Cooperative, the cooperative first negotiated the planting quantity with the seed company at the beginning of the year, and then prepared the warehouse and discussed the access with the expected cultivated area; and in order to establish a stable channel relationship, the cooperative will also import onions during the empty window of domestic onions to meet the demand for access.

In recent years, the price of onions has fluctuated greatly. If you want to stabilize the production and sale of onions, Hsieh Hsin-hui has put forward the management mentality: "No matter what kind of crop it is, you have to be sure of who you want to give it to." Otherwise, good price expansion and unstable access will increase the risk for short-term crop onions.
