AVRDC organized a sweet pepper hybrid demonstration day in Taiwan’s Hsing-kang (Chai-yi) production area on 21 March 2014. The Shingun Farmers’ Association (#52) has been growing several sweet pepper hybrids in nethouses for evaluation, including two AVRDC hybrids developed with support from the Taiwan Council of Agriculture. The association exports colored sweet pepper from Taiwan under the brand name “Kin Fujiu.” About 150 farmers and researchers from AVRDC, local agricultural universities, and district research and extension stations attended the event to score pepper varieties according to their preferences. The best performing hybrid will be released by National Chung-Hsing University and AVRDC. The association was delighted to include locally developed hybrids in its evaluation.
