Starting in September, Taiwan’s Deputy Minister of Education announced that children aged three to 12 in kindergartens and elementary schools will receive domestically produced milk, with soy milk available for those with lactose intolerance. The initiative aims for a twice-weekly supply and includes plans for remote schools to receive long-life milk if necessary.

The Consumers’ Foundation’s investigation into Taiwan’s beverage shops reveal that only 10.8% disclose milk brands in their fresh milk tea, raising concerns over transparency and consumer rights.

Taiwan’s Ministry of Agriculture and Ministry of Education are teaming up to provide fresh milk to over 1.3 million elementary students, addressing challenges and supporting local dairy farmers ahead of tariff changes.

Legislators at the Legislative Yuan are demanding that the Ministry of Agriculture (MOA) clearly define ＂fresh milk＂ to differentiate between imported milk and domestically-produced fresh milk in order to protect local dairy farmers. This demand comes as the 10-year anniversary of the economic cooperation agreement known as ANZTEC between New Zealand and Taiwan approaches, which will bring about a zero-tariff policy by 2025. The MOA has committed to collaborating with the Ministry of Health and Welfare (MOHW) to discuss the criteria for defining ’fresh milk.’ Proposals suggest establishing a clear distinction between domestic raw milk and imported liquid milk to ensure stability in contracts between dairy farmers and milk product manufacturers. It is argued that due to high-temperature sterilization and long-distance transportation, imported milk products should be categorized differently from fresh milk produced and stocked within Taiwan. The Acting Agriculture Minister Chen Junne-jih stated that the storage period and processing issues for ’fresh milk’ will be discussed in consultation with the MOHW, and milk labels will be revised to emphasize ＂Taiwan fresh milk＂ for market segmentation, preserving the label exclusively for domestically produced fresh milk. Currently, the national definition of ＂fresh milk＂ refers to raw cow’s milk processed with heating, sterilization, and refrigeration for consumption without specifying a shelf life.
