dairy imports 結果共5筆

Changhua County Magistrate Wang Hui-mei announced plans to help small schools buy refrigerators to support the ＂Fresh Milk for Every Class＂ policy, promoting local dairy consumption.

Legislators in Taipei urge a rethink of the milk supply policy for schools, proposing vouchers due to storage issues. The plan aims to provide domestic dairy twice a week.

The Ministry of Agriculture in Taiwan will start a new initiative next week to provide domestic dairy products to elementary school students. This program aims to support local farmers and offers three choices: fresh milk, long-life milk, and calcium-fortified soy milk.

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.

Taiwan’s ice cream industry has reached a record-high production value of NT＄2.8 billion in 2022, with an average year-on-year growth of 8.3% over the past five years, according to the Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA). This growth is attributed to Westernized eating habits, health-conscious consumption, and the introduction of new flavors that cater to Taiwan’s hot climate. The rise of the ice cream sector has also contributed to the steady growth of Taiwanese dairy consumption, which reached a peak production value of over NT＄40 billion in both 2021 and 2022. Despite this growth, Taiwan primarily relies on dairy imports, with an annual increase of 11.1%. New Zealand is the main import source, followed by the U.S., France, and Australia, accounting for 12.6%, 8.7%, and 7% respectively. These imports mainly consist of cheese, dry cheese, and dairy-based spreads.
