When Taiwan sweet potatoes go abroad, they are so delicious that they are chased by customers! "all the channels have been set up, but production can't keep up!" Huang Jung-ching, chairman of the board of directors of the Qingquan sweet potato production cooperative, which is based in the seaside village of Changhua, speaks of his own sweet potatoes in a tone of pride and annoyance.

In the field, sweet potato harvester imported from Japan is slowly moving forward. Sweet potatoes are unearthed one after another, and up the conveyor belt. The workers in the car carefully select and classify them and put them into plastic baskets. "in both export and relatively high-end markets, sweet potatoes are harvested with this one, so that sweet potatoes will not break their skins," explains Huang Jung-ching. Newly unearthed sweet potatoes have the thinnest skin, and once they are damaged by friction, they are easy to blacken and are not resistant to preservation.

Have you ever eaten the steamed sweet potato sold on 7-11? The sweet potatoes with clean skin and soft fragrance inside are supplied by Qingquan. At the insistence of Huang Jung-ching, all contracted farmers have to make production and marketing resumes, go through strict selection and washing procedures, and treat this ordinary agricultural product that Taiwanese are all too familiar with with the highest standards.

After washing away the dirt, sweet potato not only occupies the most prominent position of super merchants, becoming a sought-after healthy substitute, but also enters the world market and shines brilliantly in Singapore and Hong Kong. Long in poor soil, but tenacious in vitality, he worked his way up to go abroad to explore the world. The fate of Taiwan's sweet potato is so closely related to Huang Jung-ching's mental journey.
