In response to the impact of the epidemic situation, Yunlin launched a roving discussion on the revitalization of the flower industry.

In response to COVID-19 's influence on the flower industry in Yunlin County, Zhang Lishan, head of Yunlin County, had a discussion with florists yesterday (20) to understand the difficulties and needs faced by farmers, so as to help them tide over the difficulties. The county government will also actively cooperate with the 109th annual "Promotion Plan for the Revitalization of the Flower Industry" of the Council of Agriculture, hoping to increase the domestic market and increase flower consumption by promoting measures to revitalize flowers. And cultivate people's habit of using flowers.

County Mayor Zhang Lishan points out that in the past, people's understanding of agricultural products in Yunlin County was mostly in rice, fruits and vegetables, and miscellaneous cereals. In fact, the flower industry also occupies an important position in Yunlin, such as Phalaenopsis, Oncidium, National Orchid, Platycodon grandiflorum, and so on. Most of them are aimed at export, and the exporting countries include Japan, South Korea, mainland China, Australia, Europe and the United States and other places, creating good results for Yunlin's agricultural output value.

Zhang Lishan, the county magistrate, said that flowers are mainly used for ornamental purposes rather than necessities for people's livelihood. Under the influence of the COVID-19 epidemic, it has had a great impact on Yunlin's flower industry, so it urgently starts the discussion, hoping to listen to the views of flower farmers first. In addition to helping to fight for subsidies for freight and the reduction of royalties from the central government, it will also actively cooperate with the Council of Agriculture to promote the revitalization of the flower industry. Face the difficulties with farmers and discuss the way out, so that Yunlin flowers can play brightly in the domestic market.

Zhang Lishan, the county magistrate, said that the export market has been hit, and how to help open the domestic market is a top priority. I hope everyone will buy more flowers, whether it is Platycodon grandiflorum, Phalaenopsis or Oncidium. If you look at flowers, you will be in a good mood and your immunity will be good. It will help to resist the epidemic. In addition, through the "floret effect", people will have more motivation to clean the environment. Whether they are public departments, schools, institutions or groups, they also hope to put more flowers. Carry out flower art education to make the environment more beautiful and promote the development of the domestic market.
