- Incorporating Local Brands and Promoting Taiwan's Agricultural Excellence 
with Recognition from Buyers Around the Globe

    The 2019 Taoyuan Agriculture Expo will be held between September 28th and 
October 27th. To introduce outstanding Taiwanese agricultural machinery to the 
agricultural sector at home and abroad, the Council of Agriculture, Executive 
Yuan (COA) specially designed the Innovative Agricultural Machinery Pavilion as 
a part of the 2019 Taoyuan Agriculture Expo. Following last year's success, 
this year's exhibition will present Taiwan's high-quality small and 
medium-sized agricultural machinery and improved technologies with efforts to 
increase the international visibility of Taiwanese agricultural machinery 
technology.

    In recent years, the development of agricultural machinery has played an 
essential role in the marked improvement of Taiwanese agricultural technology 
and farming efficiency. To catch up with the international expo design trend, 
the 2019 Innovative Agricultural Machinery Pavilion has been created as a 
stand-alone pavilion with a specific theme. The concept is 'Smart Agricultural 
Lifestyle', with the goal of promoting excellent Taiwanese agricultural 
machinery in collaboration with local brands.

    Taiwan has been promoting agricultural mechanization for over 60 years. 
Today, Taiwan's small-sized agricultural machinery is sold to more than 40 
countries around the globe. Its high-quality and fair price have been widely 
acknowledged in the international community. In recent years, due to the focus 
shifting from the domestic market to the international market, the Taiwanese 
agricultural machinery sector has successfully transitioned to an 
export-oriented industry. While the industry has been striving to expand its 
existing international market, under the New Southbound Policy, the COA 
specially invited Southeast Asian international buyers and manufacturers to the 
Expo this year. Through exhibiting Taiwan's internationally competitive R&D 
achievements in agricultural machinery, Taiwanese agricultural machinery 
hopefully will receive significantly more opportunities to expand into 
Southeast Asian countries.

    The 2019 Innovative Agricultural Machinery Pavilion will present the R&D 
achievements in Taiwanese agricultural machinery. It is hoped that through 
international exchanges and collaborations on agricultural technology, the 
uniquely innovative technology of Taiwanese agriculture will shine on the 
international stage. In addition, students from colleges and universities have 
been invited to this year's Expo to hold robot-in-the-field games; through 
attending the Expo, students can gain a deeper understanding of smart 
agriculture. Lasting for a period of one month, the Expo is going to present 
exciting activities and is estimated to attract 100,000 visitors.
