Dingbian white radish first sold in Taiwan market
On June 15, through the inspection and supervision of Yulin Customs under Xi'an Customs, 53.2 tons of Dingbian white radish successfully arrived in Taiwan, China, China, achieving a breakthrough of "zero" in the self operated export of Dingbian white radish, and further opening the trade channel between the two sides of Yulin's characteristic agricultural products.
Dingbian County, Yulin City is located in the core production area of the Loess Plateau. The unique plateau endowment of high altitude, strong sunshine, and clean sandy loam soil makes the locally bred white radish crispy, tender, juicy, sweet, and refreshing, highly suitable for Taiwan's fresh food consumption standards. At present, the planting area of white radish in the county has reached 80000 mu, with an annual output of over 400000 tons. The advantages of large-scale and standardized industries are significant, and it is a core characteristic industry for local farmers to increase income.
In order to ensure the stable and compliant export of white radish, Yulin Customs has made precise efforts and provided advanced services from the planting source, with dedicated personnel providing one-on-one assistance throughout the process, guiding enterprises to successfully complete the registration of export food raw material planting bases, further standardizing field planting control, agricultural material use records, and harvesting traceability registration, and helping enterprises firmly safeguard the bottom line of quality and safety of exported agricultural products at the source. At the same time, in response to the entry standards for agricultural products in Taiwan, Yulin Customs continues to strengthen full process supervision, closely focusing on key elements such as pesticide residue limits, quarantine access, packaging labeling, etc., and strictly controlling key links such as field management, safe medication, harvesting and processing, to ensure that exported products comply with market access standards in Taiwan.
In addition, Yulin Customs is also based on the strong timeliness and high preservation requirements of fresh agricultural products. By opening a "green channel" for agricultural and food products, relying on convenient measures such as paperless declaration and "cloud issuance" of quarantine certificates, priority inspection and rapid issuance of certificates are given to ensure the freshness of fruits and vegetables to the greatest extent possible.
The successful export of Dingbian white radish to the Taiwan market for the first time has doubled our confidence in expanding exports. We expect to complete 2800 tons of export orders to Taiwan this year. In the future, we will continue to strictly control product quality, standardize production standards, and steadily expand the market share of Dingbian vegetables on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, "said Bi Yuzhong, head of Dingbian Yuyuan Fruit and Vegetable Planting Co., Ltd.
