China has suspended imports of Taiwanese pineapples, affecting about 40,000 metric tons a year, or 10% of Taiwan’s total production. In response, Taiwan's President, Tsai Ing-wen, has established the "National Team for Agricultural Products." Yunlin vegetable farmer, Lin Jiaxin, criticized the Council of Agriculture for subsidizing large manufacturers and foreign businesses, arguing that it should prioritize supporting Taiwanese farmers. He suggested that if eating vegetables like cabbage, chrysanthemum, spinach, and catties could solve agricultural issues, the public would be willing to consume them.
