Since 106, the use of four-chapter 1Q ingredients for school lunch has been promoted, from six counties and cities on a trial basis to 22 counties and cities across the country. There are about 6.5 million registrations of school lunch materials each year. According to the statistics, the national average coverage of four chapters 1Q reached 55% last year, and even as high as 90% in Hsinchu City. Lin Yi, a member of the Executive Yuan, said at a press conference on the 23rd that in addition to the use of Chapter 1Q for lunch in primary and secondary schools, it will also be extended upward to senior high school and downward to kindergartens, gradually expanding the scope of application, but detailed planning is still needed.

* Little knowledge: chapter 1Q includes organic, production and marketing experience, CAS Taiwan's fine agricultural products, safe fruits and vegetables in Jiyuan Garden, and the QRcode mark for traceability of Taiwan's agricultural (water, livestock) products.

Chen Jizhong: the coverage rate of Chapter 41Q of school lunch is 55%, and I hope to move towards 100%.

Chen Jizhong, chairman of the Council of Agriculture, points out that the most difficult way to promote the adoption of Chapter 1Q for school lunches lies in inter-ministerial coordination, including the Council of Agriculture, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Health and Welfare, and local governments. In addition, among the more than 3,000 schools in Taiwan, including self-set-up kitchens and the supply of group diners, we must help operators find sources of supply and slowly communicate with various counties and cities. At present, although the coverage rate of Chapter 41Q of school lunch is 55%, "it is still not enough. I hope to move towards 100%."

Zhuang Laoda, deputy director of the Agriculture and Food Administration, pointed out that since March 106, four-chapter 1Q ingredients have been used for school lunches in six counties and cities. at that time, the coverage rate of four-chapter 1Q was only 11%, but it grew to 55% in November this year, and more than half used four-chapter 1Q ingredients. According to the proportion of landing materials for schools in various counties and cities, the coverage rate of Chapter 1Q in Hsinchu City is as high as 90%, 82% in Taitung County, and 74% in Tainan City. And there are more than a dozen counties and cities have reached more than 50%, because the outlying islands are not easy to transport, the coverage rate is low.

Jiyuan Garden exited in June, mentoring and upgrading production and marketing experience.

Chen Jizhong stressed that eating local food is only the first step, and then it is more necessary to combine the education of food farmers so that schools can teach outdoors so that they can go to the farms and pastures of food materials to understand the production process. In addition, in the four chapters 1Q mark, in June this year, the Jiyuan Garden logo will also be allowed to exit, leaving the "three chapters 1Q", mainly because other verification marks are verified and managed by a third party, and the Jiyuan Garden is verified by the Council of Agriculture itself, in order to ensure quality and safety, let the Jiyuan Garden exit.

Chuang Laoda further explained that at present, the verified area of vegetables and fruits in Jiyuan Garden is more than 20,000 hectares, and he hopes to gradually guide farmers to transition to production and marketing resumes, because they are already recorded in drug use records, and there is no problem in safety, but there is a lack of traceability. Therefore, farmers will be instructed to apply for production and marketing resumes.
