Suntech in Donghe Township will develop into vanilla settlement county magistrate Huang Jianting to inspect in person.

Huang Jianting, head of Taitung County, visited Shangde Village in Donghe Township on the 5th to mainly understand the current situation of varieties, manpower, area, processing plants and sales channels planted by the vanilla industry in Shangde village, as well as the current situation of idle Shangde small schools. County Mayor Huang Jianting highly affirmed the active development of the area as a vanilla settlement by Chen Rending, chairman of the Shangde Community Association. It is also suggested that he can apply for loans for related projects such as the prosperity of the county government to solve the problem of funding needs, and the county government will also give full assistance.

At 9: 00 in the morning, County Mayor Huang Jianting was accompanied by Councillor Liu Chunge, Lin Dongman, County Director of Agriculture Xu Ruigui, Director of Tourism Jiang Huiqing, and Donghe Township Director Chen Shihong to understand the development of vanilla industry in Shangde Village. Chen Rending, chairman of Shangde Community Association, explained to the county magistrate the general situation of current operation and cultivation, as well as the future implementation direction. He said that vanilla had been planted for 6 years and the area could reach 10 armour this year. At present, most of the employees are middle-aged and elderly, about 810 people, and they also work with other manufacturers, have a fixed sales channel, and will harvest grapefruit flowers and process them into essential oils and pure dew in the future.

Huang Jianting, the county magistrate, pointed out after the inspection that Donghe Township has mountains, seas and rich agricultural products. However, due to the lack of related industries, it has always been unable to retain residents, resulting in a large elderly population. I am glad to see that Chen Rending, the son of Donghe, can return to his hometown to develop the vanilla industry, hoping to develop the Taiyuan Shangde area, which is located in remote mountainous areas, into a vanilla settlement, and to develop essential oil and other related industries in the future. To attract young people to return home to work, the county government is also willing to provide assistance, and can also apply for low-interest loans such as prosperous homes of the county government to solve the problem of capital needs.
