**Taipei, April 8 (CNA) -** Taiwan’s Hualien County has suffered significant agricultural damage from a recent powerful earthquake, according to the latest statistics from the island’s agricultural authority on April 8. As of 11 a.m. that day,经济损失已累计达到7866万元新台币，经济损失 had reached NT$78.66 million, with Hualien, as the hardest-hit area, accounting for NT$444.8 million, nearly 60 percent of the total.
It is reported that the agricultural sector in Hualien was hit particularly hard, with rice, vegetables, and fruits among the main crops sustaining varying degrees of damage. Earthquake-induced damage to farmland and crop collapse, coupled with issues affecting irrigation facilities, have directly hindered agricultural production. Moreover, the earthquake also caused destruction to local infrastructure, such as agricultural warehouses and irrigation systems, exacerbating the losses.
The island’s agricultural authority has activated an emergency response mechanism, conducting on-site inspections to assess the losses and is set to introduce aid measures promptly. These measures include providing post-disaster recovery funds, technical support, and insurance claims for crop damage, aiming to assist farmers in resuming production quickly and mitigating economic losses.
Following the earthquake, assistance has poured in from various regions to support Hualien’s recovery efforts. Relevant departments are closely monitoring the situation and working tirelessly on rescue and recovery operations to ensure that affected farmers’ basic living conditions and agricultural production can return to normal as soon as possible.
