台糖設施農業發展經過及初期經營概況

Taisugar Facility Agriculture: Development and Initial Operating Profile

摘要


戰後台糖公司最重要的轉折,應該發生於1981~1984年間。當時公司董事長,王彝定先生認為過去台糖以農業扶植工業的年代已成過去,由於砂糖成本過高,其生產不再是台糖的主要業務,利用台糖土地資源、工場與畜殖場廢棄物為有機肥培養地力,讓土地永續生產作物,因此七十年代全面生產無農藥殘毒,食用後尚不致影響健康的蔬果以維護國民健康,但因生產規模小,產量過少,公司不惜投入巨大的人力、物力以喚醒消費大眾,正視蔬果農藥殘毒的問題,並親自指揮擴大多角經營,創新高品質產品的決策下,增加產銷据點並輔導蔗農參與產銷。生產過程中將與學術機關及各地區農改場,取得密切的聯擊以及技術指導,帶動菜農生產無殘毒的蔬菜。八十年代由於糖研所成立園藝系,台糖蝴蝶蘭帶動國內花卉業者進軍世界市場。提供農場閒置土地興建設施,每年借國際蘭展,打開知名度,輔導花卉產業享譽全世界。九十年代台糖利用公路兩傍農地及休閒農場造林面積達一萬公頃,遠超越農委會規劃全國達成五千公頃有機又安全的美化環境森林。政府推行有機農法永續生產糧食作物體系於焉形成。

1981~1984 was the most crucial turning point for the Taiwan Sugar Corporation, after World War II. At that time, Mr. Wang Yiding, Chairman of the Board, stated that the era for TSC, Taiwan Sugar Corporation, to use agriculture to foster industry had passed. The cost of producing sugar was too high, and would no longer be the main business of TSC. Making the best of the land resources and using factory and livestock waste as organic fertilizers made sustainable and perennial productivity of arable land possible. In the 1980s, TSC started producing insecticide/pesticide-free fruits and vegetables, so as to protect public health. Initially, the scale was modest, and thus the output was meager. Later, TSC ramped up huge investments of manpower and capital, so as to draw the attention of consumers to the issues of the pesticide residues on produce. Mr. Wang personally spearheaded efforts to expand the multi-crop culture, with the strategies of innovation and heightened quality control, broadening retail sales and manufacturing and advising sugarcane farmers to participate in production and distribution. The production processes were connected with academic institutions and regional Agricultural Research and Extension Stations. This offered close contacts and technical guidance, and spurred vegetable growers to churn out produce with no pesticide residues. During the 1980s, due to the establishment of the Department of Horticulture in Taiwan Sugar Research Institute, TSC Phalaenopsis Exports, leading by example, propelled domestic florists to the World arena. Providing idle farmland to build greenhouses and facilities, by the way of annual international Orchid Fair, TSC propped up publicity and made Taiwan's flower industry renowned around the world. In the 1990s, TSC planted trees more than 10,000 hectares utilizing the farmlands alongside highways and agricultural recreational farms, which far exceeded the 5,000 hectares of organic and safe ecologically friendly forest planned by the National Council of Agriculture. Moreover, the Government has developed an organic farming system for sustainable production of grain crops.
