On October 30, 2024, the Ministry of Agriculture held a press conference to launch the "Agricultural Sustainability ESG Custom Matching Platform (ESG Store)," co-hosted by Deputy Minister Du Wen-Jhen and Director General of the Resource Sustainability Division, Zhuang Lao-Da. The event welcomed companies that closely collaborate with the Ministry, represented by our Assistant Wang Si-Chuan.

The ESG Store offers tailored ESG project execution in agricultural settings. Since its launch in February 2023, it has successfully established partnerships with 72 companies, showcasing the results of public-private collaboration. To expand corporate partnerships, the platform provides a range of services covering Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and four key areas of agricultural net zero (reduction, enhancement, circulation, and green trends), with ten project types including circular agriculture, sustainable production, low-carbon agricultural products, resilient agriculture, animal welfare, agricultural cultural heritage, agricultural development, and food education.

Each project can be customized, allowing companies to leverage their expertise and resources to propose innovative ESG ideas. The Ministry will match these ideas with agricultural settings and provide proof of results to acknowledge companies' actions toward a shared future and their tangible contributions to the environment. Our company aims to reference various ESG project details, assess our capabilities and technologies, and hopes to collaborate with more enterprises through the Ministry's platform to contribute to sustainable environments and development.
