College of Agriculture
National Pingtung University of Science and Technology
College of Agriculture of NPUST is well-known for developing safe, healthy, and sustainable “sixth sector” agricultural technology and related industry. The Yong-Lin farm adopts organic planting and obtains organic certification to integrate the “three lives”-production, ecology, and lifestyle integration. It is a large-scale organic farm in Taiwan, and has been introducing relevant agricultural technology since 2016, and developed into an advanced intelligent agricultural park. The farm’s business model and concept are consistent with our College. Therefore, Dean Ho-Hsien Chen of the College of Agriculture led 15 supervisory professors from 7 departments, including the Department of Plant Industry, the Department of Forestry, and the Department of Biotechnology of Biological Science and Technology, Department of Wood Science and Design, Department of Animal Science, Department of Plant Medicine, and Department of Food Science to visit Yong-Lin Farm on September 25th, hoping to implement and promote the integration with industry through this visit, and explore the opportunities of cooperation or strategic alliances and cultivate talents. In order to strengthen the further cooperation opportunities and industry-academic relations between the school and Yong-Lin Farm, the CEO of Yong-Lin Farm Pei-Yu Pai, General Manager Chi-Jen Liu and Senior Vice President Min- Chang Lee visited NPUST on November 18, 2020 to meet with President, Prof. Chang-Hsien Tai, and Dean Dr. Ho-Hsien Chen, to discuss the direction and development of the future cooperation and alliance between the two sides.
