In Hsinchu County in the middle of last month, due to heavy rainfall and local flooding caused by Typhoon Qiangbi, wheat plants in Hukou withered, and soybean plants in Xinfeng and Zhubei suffered heavy losses. After collecting relevant disaster information, the county government contacted the Taoyuan District Agricultural Reform Center and the North Branch of the Agricultural and Food Administration for inspection and confirmation, and sought approval from the Ministry of Agriculture for natural disaster cash assistance. Qualified farmers can apply to their township or city offices from now until next Wednesday (18th).

Fu Qiyao, director of the county agriculture department, said that the Ministry of Agriculture officially announced that Hukou wheat, Xinfeng soybeans, and Zhubei soybeans are all agricultural natural disaster cash relief areas for this typhoon. Because they are all cereals, whether it is wheat or soybeans, the assistance amount is 28,000 yuan per hectare. As long as farmers meet the provisions of the Agricultural Natural Disaster Relief Measures and the damage rate of wheat or soybeans exceeds 20%, they can apply.
