Seed becomes gold -Talking about the quality control of the green gold industry

In the global climate changes, many countries have paid more attention to the quality of seed production to maintain the crops yield. According to the statistics of the International Seed Federation, Taiwan's seed export competitive ranks 22nd in the world, and the export volume is growing year by year.

Under the impetus of the new agricultural policy, Taiwan will move forward to organic agriculture comprehensively. Although organic seed production base in Taiwan is not yet ready at present, Taiwan government shows a strong public need for strict regulation on the use of organic seeds in organic agriculture.

In order to build a complete organic industrial chain, Taiwan Seed Improvement and Propagation Station, the government official seed production organization, not only comply with the government policy to conduct the production of organic seeds and the development of modulation technology, but also has met the requirements of the quality management system ISO 9001:2015 since 2018. Through strict quality management processes and testing techniques, the quality of seeds can be upgraded to an international level. In demand for organic seeds exceeds supply this would bring boom of a green gold industry in organic seed production.
