Taiwan: Taiwan Forage Market Overview

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   TW2022-0039

In 2021, Taiwan production of forage crops accounted for 45 percent of demand. Taiwan imports approximately 300,000 tons of forage products annually to supplement domestic production, which is constrained by limited farmland and suitable climate conditions. The United States is the leading supplier of forage products and accounted for approximately 64 percent of imports in 2021. Taiwan demand for imported forage products is forecast to remain stable.
