Six Learning Sites Chosen
Reflecting the rich variety of the agricultural industry, the concept of "From Farm to Fork" has been incorporated into the program to highlight the diversity of the agriculture industry. Six learning sites were thus carefully selected to showcase the value chain of agricultural development in Yilan, from smallholders' farmlands to local platforms to terminal markets.
"From Farm to Fork" literally describes the process of development from farmlands to the markets and ultimately to the consumers. Each stage of the process encompasses a range of possibilities for development and industry value. In all, they represent the relationships as well as problems in the value chain. By categorizing the six learning sites into farmlands cultivated by smallholders, local sales platforms and commercial terminal market channels, participants can acquire a thorough understanding of these stakeholders' agricultural development while identifying customers' needs and expectations of the "food" on their forks. It is hoped that "From Farm to Fork" would serve as a catalyst for participants to discover innovative design opportunities to achieve the objective of sustainable agriculture.
