Domestic non-genetically modified soybean transferred to domestic market

Domestic non-GM soybeans move to the domestic market

(Taiwan Business News) The Kaohsiung District Agricultural Improvement Station has cooperated with the industry to develop related products such as edamame and soybean milk, which have long been exported to the domestic market.

Kaohsiung Agricultural Improvement Farm said that Taiwan's total export output value of soybean products last year was 68.59 million US dollars, the second highest in 20 years, and its market share in Japan reached 42.1%. It has been the champion of Japan for six consecutive years, significantly ahead of competitors such as the mainland of China and Thailand.

The Kaohsiung Agricultural Improvement Station points out that Taiwan's edamame has long been mainly exported, and many people love domestic non-genetically modified edamame and soybean products, but they don't know where to buy high-quality products, so there is a lot of room for expansion in the domestic market.

The Kaohsiung Agricultural Improvement Station says that soybean farmers who use Taiwan's land to grow the best soybeans in the world should also give back to the people of Taiwan. Therefore, the Kaohsiung Station has cooperated with many retailers and processors to make soy milk (including tea soy milk and black soy milk), soy sauce and black soy sauce from domestic soybeans.

Kaohsiung Agricultural Improvement Farm and the industry specially set up the official Facebook of "Taiwan Green Bean Alliance" to allow consumers to directly purchase export-grade related products from the industry.

The Kaohsiung Agricultural Improvement Station points out that the immature soybean is the edamame, which is a very popular health food for the Japanese. The new variety of edamame bred by the Agricultural Improvement Station-Kaohsiung 11 "Xiangmi", made into soy milk, has a strong bean fragrance and a charming light taro fragrance, which is a new choice for health care.

In addition, the soybeans, black beans, tea beans and green beans developed by Kaohsiung Farm have also cooperated with the industry this year to process high-quality soy sauce, soy milk and other products, which consumers can buy at Carrefour and Taiwan Sugar stores or websites.
