In response to the controversy caused by the suspension of irrigation of peach bamboo seedlings, the chairman of the Council of Agriculture led executives at all levels to Taoyuan yesterday (21) afternoon to hold a forum on "working together to tide over the difficulties of drought", which was attended by more than 100 farmers from all over Taoyuan and Hsinchu. Chairman Chen Jizhong said that all practitioners will definitely receive compensation. "otherwise, everyone can come to the Council of Agriculture to protest with me."

Chen Jizhong hopes that farmers will understand that stopping irrigation is a last resort, but he has strived for the highest compensation for farmers (Photo / Yang Yuyun) the amount of vegetable compensation has been released for all crops damaged.

Cai Jiefu, director of the Department of farmland and Water Conservancy, explained that no typhoon invaded Taiwan this year, and Meiyu brought only 60% of the rainfall in the past. The reason why irrigation was stopped was concentrated in the Taozhu Miao area because the rainfall from Shimen to Deji Reservoir reached a record low from June to October this year, and the effective water storage capacity was not optimistic: the Shimen Reservoir was only 45.2%, and the Deji Reservoir was even as low as 20.6%.

Tsai Chun-fu said that to complete the second phase of rice cultivation in Taozhu Miao area, 130 million tons of water is needed, but the reservoir of Taozhu Miao only holds 120 million tons of water. Since the water source is unable to complete the task of irrigation, the Council of Agriculture can only make this difficult decision.

"the government has no way to influence God's decision on whether it rains or not, but it can definitely help farmers tide over their difficulties and make ends meet." Tsai Yung-fu said. He once again explained the method of applying for compensation at the forum. In addition, in addition to the amount of compensation for citrus, sweet potato, soybean and forage, he also announced more compensation rates for crops, as detailed in the table below. He also called on farmers to apply for crops that were not on the list, and the government would give preferential compensation as long as the damage was confirmed.

At the same time, Cai Jiefu also reiterated that the irrigation suspension subsidy is for practical tillers. In the four days since the application was opened, 10935 farmers and more than 5000 hectares of rice fields have applied, accounting for about 30 per cent of the damaged area. In order to help farmers receive compensation as soon as possible, apart from mobilizing colleagues from New Taipei City to come to Taozhu Miao area for support, the Water Conservancy Department will also conduct a scheduled tour to facilitate farmers' applications.

Stop irrigation compensation standard (data source / Council of Agriculture) compensation application and fertilizer real-name system check, landlords must not apply

Chairman Chen Jizhong said that as a big parent of the Council of Agriculture, his task is to take care of all farmers. "of course I can clap the table with the Ministry of Economic Affairs and say that the farmland is not irrigated. However, if the disaster continues to be serious, everyone can only receive a subsidy of 18000 per hectare for natural disasters. " He said that since the disaster is a fact, he should help everyone to get better compensation. "of course, I know that 140,000 cannot really make up for your real contribution, let alone emotional investment, but I hope you will understand that this is really a last resort."

Chen Jizhong also appealed to landlords that the compensation for stopping irrigation is aimed at practical tillers. After accepting the application, the workstation will check with the real-name system of fertilizers. If the landlords have never bought fertilizer, please do not claim to be practical tillers. He stressed many times before and after that that every practitioner would be compensated.

Farmers suggest: integration of the system, maintenance of waterways, Beitao people's livelihood water community is difficult.

Farmers are open to express their views at the forum. As far as Taoyuan Green Farm Yu is concerned, he speaks on behalf of the farmers in Xinwu, Waxberry, and Hukou. He blames the Council of Agriculture for saying that irrigation will be stopped as soon as the irrigation is stopped, and that the parties concerned will not have the opportunity to express their opinions at all. Such a heavy blow has made the farmers unable to sleep for several days. In addition, he also pointed out that the receiving standards of workstations vary from place to place, and some farmers' applications are rejected because they do not know the ID card number of the landlord.

Farmer Xu Tongquan suggested that the water conservancy system is data from three years ago, and if it can be integrated with the agricultural and grain system, it will make it much easier to apply, and it can even be combined with rice insurance. At the same time, he suggested that landlords should be given less fallow subsidies next year, and some of the expenses should be moved to allow farmers to switch to drought-tolerant crops. "if climate change is already the norm, should we deal with it in advance?" Xu Tongquan asked questions.
