Liao Chin-Yi, director-general of the Pingtung County Peasants' Association, during the Taiwan Lantern Festival in Mirs Bay, Pingtung, this year, the county government appeased the crispy fruit rice given by tourists in a long queue, and went so far as to choose onions, a health-preserving farm from southern Taiwan. Onions are not uncommon, but have you ever had a drink made of onions and traditional Chinese medicine?

Extension Department of Peasants' Association in Weishan area

Onion processing research and development and product launch are not plain sailing most of the time. "having an idea doesn't mean you can expand it." The extension Department of the Farmers' Association in the Weishan area said that in the past, the peasant association used to dry onions into crispy snacks, but the shelf life was too short and the cost was too low, so they had to give up.

"when it was made into an experimental sample, everyone said it was delicious, but the problem is that the preservation period is too short. It doesn't mean that if you open it for half a year or a year, if you open it and eat it after that time, you will feel that ── will smell of oil if you put it for too long, and you have to overcome the preservation and moistureproof. Moreover, the unit price is extremely expensive, 20 yuan for a bag of potato chips on the market, and 40 or 50 yuan for our pack of dozens of grams. We have calculated that the market may not be able to push. " The Promotion Department frankly said that the products launched by the peasant associations are real materials, and the marketing and access roads are the weaker links of the peasant associations, and they can only exit sadly if they get the competition in the market.

Onion rice, onion red wine, expand the potential of onion

In addition to industry-university cooperation, the Hengchun Town Peasant Association also tries other onion processed products. At the beginning of this year, the "onion rice darling" distributed by the Pingtung County government to tourists waiting for the bus at the Taiwan Lantern Festival was made by food manufacturers and farmers' associations to buy grinding powder during the onion boom, and it was once sold in limited quantities in super-merchants.

Lin Shunhe said, "it takes 4 tons of onions to grind into 200 kilograms of powder." Sales are good, but the manufacturer's strategy is seasonal. We only do one batch (a year). We wanted to work together for a long time. " In addition, in order to maintain the freshness of onion products in the consumer market, the Farmers' Association will adjust the packaging of onion red wine that has been on the market for six or seven years every three or four years, so as to give consumers a fresh feeling and hope that through processing, the onion signboard in Pingtung will continue to be polished.
