Council of Agriculture of the Executive Yuan: continue to assist Taiwan's Phalaenopsis in international export

The USDA approved the export of Phalaenopsis plants attached to Chinese mainland to the United States with effect from March 14, and Chinese mainland will be one of the competitors for Phalaenopsis exports to the United States in the future, the Council of Agriculture of the Executive Yuan said. The association pointed out that after years of efforts by official and private breeders, Taiwan's Phalaenopsis species are rich and diverse, and the government will continue to assist the industry in implementing the management of diseases and insect pests in Orchid Garden, strengthening the distribution of overseas variety rights and expanding emerging markets, so as to continue to produce high-quality Phalaenopsis in order to actively face the challenges and ensure the market share of Phalaenopsis plants attached to China in the United States.

Advanced cultivation and breeding techniques of Phalaenopsis in Taiwan, implementation of pest management and excellent plant quality

The Council of Agriculture of the Executive Yuan stated that since 1993, Phalaenopsis broke through the quarantine barrier of the United States and gained the advantage that the only attached cultivation medium in the world could be imported to the United States. Oncidium plants in China first obtained the consent of the United States on February 4, 105 to export to the United States in the form of attached cultivation media, and will take effect from March 7, creating another first in the world. In recent years, the greenhouse equipment, cultivation management and production level of Phalaenopsis cultivation in Taiwan have been significantly improved, which has been deeply recognized and affirmed by the international community. The total number of Phalaenopsis imported to the United States in 104 years is 23.38 million, about 50 million US dollars, accounting for 41% of the total export amount of Phalaenopsis in China.
