Present situation and mode of flower deep processing, flower tourism and flower supporting industry in Taiwan Province.

According to the analysis report of China Flower Planting Industry Market Foresight and Investment Strategic Planning by Foresight Production Research Institute:

1. Brief introduction of flower production in Taiwan Province Province

In terms of unit planting area, flowers have become the most profitable crops. The existing flower production area in Taiwan Province Province is 1, hectares, of which green seedlings and fresh potted flowers each account for half, with an output value of more than NT$ 8 billion. There are more than 4 kinds of production and cultivation. 1% of the flowers produced are exported and 9% are sold domestically, and the annual flower consumption per capita is $15. The export markets are mainly Japan (chrysanthemums and orchids), Hongkong (branches and leaves), USA (dried flowers and seedlings), Netherlands, Italy (bonsai and seedlings) and Chinese mainland (foliage plants). At present, there are 15, flower farmers and 15, employees. Changhua County has the largest number of flower producing areas, followed by Taichung, Chiayi and Taipei. Taiwan Province regards the flower industry as a "sunrise industry", and plans to build the world's "tropical flower kingdom" within 1 years, and develop in the direction of "enterprise, exquisite internationalization".

Second, the characteristics of flower industry in Taiwan Province Province

1. Pay attention to the development and utilization of flower varieties

(1) Breeding

The famous brand varieties such as Phalaenopsis, Eupatorium odoratum, Lycoris aurea, etc. bred in Taiwan Province Province are unique and world-famous. We visited Taiwan Province Agricultural Laboratory and Nongyou Company to carry out breeding research, and have bred heat-resistant carnation varieties. Nongyou Company has achieved remarkable results in the breeding of one-year and two-year-old grass flowers, which has produced remarkable benefits.

(2) variety improvement

taichung district agricultural improvement farm introduced new varieties from abroad, and directly popularized and applied them after screening and breeding, with remarkable results. Such as cut flower perfume lily, cut flower rose, chrysanthemum, gladiolus, carnation, crane orchid and flamingo flower; Foliage plants, such as Araceae and Palmae; Modern small potted flowers, such as ornamental pineapple, rhododendron, miniature rose, dwarf poinsettia and so on.

(3) Exploitation and utilization of flower resources in this province

Taiwan Province Province has superior climate and abundant flower resources, such as annual and biennial flowers, ferns, leaf-cutting plants and dried flowers. Due to the emphasis on opening up the new variety market, the variety is updated quickly and there are many patterns, which improves the market competitiveness.

2. Pay attention to the improvement of cultivation techniques

(1) The regulation of production period

The regulation of flowering period has been widely used in chrysanthemum and Phalaenopsis. For example, chrysanthemum, Taiwan Province Province used continuous lighting for more than 4 hours a day in the 197s, which consumed a lot of electricity. In 198' s, intermittent lighting in different areas was used for 2.5 hours a day, which reduced the production cost. At present, the agricultural improvement farm in Taichung District is studying the use of chemical agents (hormones) instead of lighting treatment technology to further reduce production costs and improve competitiveness. Flowers such as Phalaenopsis, Gladiolus, Lily, and Mantianxing have achieved annual production and flower supply in Changhua County.

(2) Pruning technology

The production of cut flowers in summer is controlled by picking buds in spring to improve the quality of roses. In this paper, the branch-breaking technology is used to improve the quality of cut flowers, and the number of export branches per plant is increased from 8 to 14 per year.

(3) At present, soilless culture adopts bag culture, which can improve quality and prevent pollution without increasing investment in facilities.

(4) Fresh-keeping storage and transportation technologies of cut flowers for export, such as Agricultural Research Institute and Chiayi Institute of Technology, all study the fresh-keeping storage and transportation technologies of cut flowers such as Phalaenopsis, Chrysanthemum, Gladiolus, Gerbera jamesonii, Lily and Carnation.

(5) In addition to promoting virus-free seedlings and soilless culture, pest control is currently devoted to biological control research.

(6) The degree of facility mechanization is relatively high

In 198s, the cultivation with simple sunshade facilities was developed, and there are large-scale glass greenhouses equipped with spraying, automatic curtain drawing and drip irrigation. The production of flower seedlings adopts plug mechanized seedling raising, fresh cut flowers are graded and packaged, and gladiolus bulbs are harvested by mechanized operation.

3. Advanced means of flower seedling production

Tissue culture technology has entered a practical stage in the production and application of flower seedlings. Such as orchid, gerbera jamesonii, gypsophila paniculata and flamingo flowers, are in the forefront of the world in tissue culture application, and tissue culture seedlings are widely used in production.

4. Attach importance to the development of flower art commodities

Attach importance to the development of horticultural products, such as flower pots, vases, utensils, media, packaging decorations, etc., and attach importance to flower packaging to increase added value. The level of artistic flower arrangement is high, and pot art cultivation is more common.

5. The transportation and marketing system is perfect and the information system is advanced

A relatively sound production and marketing consulting service system has been established, which can quickly provide international marketing. There are four computerized flower auction markets in the province, Taipei Flower Auction Market, with modern equipment, computerization and institutionalized management, and a "fair, open and just" price competition mechanism is implemented.

Third, the successful experience of flower industry in Taiwan Province Province

1. We can make full use of the geographical and natural conditions of this province, develop our own unique flower products, attach importance to variety improvement and breeding, and have advanced seedling raising methods.

2. The scale, specialization, regionalization and modernization of flower production reduce production costs, improve quality and occupy a place in the international flower market.

3. Flower scientific research, production, sales and teaching are closely combined to form a virtuous circle.

The production and marketing classes organized by universities, research institutes, improvement farms and township farmers' associations have distinct levels, clear tasks and prominent priorities, and scientific research and teaching have effectively solved the urgent problems in production.

4. The establishment of a relatively sound circulation management system ensures the best interests of flower farmers and is the fundamental guarantee for the progress of flower industry in Taiwan Province Province.
