In the countdown of 85 days since the lean pig came to Taiwan, the supporting policies have not been clearly explained. Chen Jizhong, chairman of the Council of Agriculture, prepared an inquiry at the Economic Committee of the Legislative Yuan today. A total of 36 legislators from the opposition party and the ruling party raised questions in turn, and the fire was fierce, and the political inquiry lasted as long as 10 hours. Legislators of all political parties have demanded that the Council of Agriculture explain in detail the supporting contents, especially the allocation of the $10 billion fund, and how to implement the Taiwan pig identification logo.

Chen Jizhong said that the proportion of Chinese people who will eat Lai pig is very low, while after Japan and South Korea opened up the import of Lai pig, the import volume of American pigs has dropped in the past two years, and the Council of Agriculture has a list of imported meat merchants, which can be traced in the future. As for the identification mark of Taiwan pigs, the follow-up inspection methods will be discussed with the Central Animal Industry Association in the near future.

Under the pressure of the legislators, the Council of Agriculture finally announced the allocation of 10 billion yuan for four years, totaling 12.96 billion yuan. 3.191 billion will be used on the road in the first year of next year, with the largest proportion of promoting "slaughterhouse modernization and meat cold chain upgrading", accounting for 1.06 billion.
