紅龍果為近年新興果樹，生長速度快，適應性廣，近年來市場價格穩定，農民種植意願提高，103年種植面積1,676公頃(104年初步統計2,032公頃)，產量38,965公噸，產值27.13億元，104年外銷量170公噸，外銷值14,907千元，主要外銷中國大陸，約佔外銷量92%。紅龍果產業面臨挑戰包括種植面積及產量增加、越南生產紅龍果即將突破檢疫再度進入臺灣市場，評估可能以低成本、低價搶攻市場，另中國大陸紅龍果種植面積增加，對臺灣進口之需求勢必減少，加上未來加入TPP 後進口關稅調降都將影響產業發展，為提昇產業競爭力，生產高品質、安全產品，及穩定產銷為目標。透過輔導設置優質集 團產區，導入優良品種及技術，藉由技術服務團現地輔導，協助農民提升技術，增加高品質果品比率及穩定供應，並推動生產追溯(QR-code)、吉園圃安全蔬果標章、有機栽培、產銷履歷等制度以建立安全果品及生產責任制度，並有區隔進口產品作用，在出口方面，辦理業者與農民契作契銷及登錄管理，改善產銷供應鏈設施(備)，提升產品競爭力。

Pitaya fruit is burgeoning in recent years due to high growth rate, extensive adaptability to growing conditions. Along with the gradual increase of quality led by improvement of techniques, pitaya fruit has thus become a steady source of income, which brought about its wide popularity among producers. In 2014, the cultivated area of pitaya fruit in Taiwan is 1,676 hectares, which may reach 2,032 hectares in 2015 based on a preliminary survey. The total annual production is about 38,965 tons valuing NT$2,713 million, among which roughly 170 tons worth NT$14.9 million were exported. The primary export destination is China, which accounted for 92 percent of our pitaya fruit export. Taiwan pitaya fruit industry is facing several challenges including the over expanding of cultivated area and productivity, the Vietnamese pitaya fruit finally meeting the quarantine requirement and thus reentering the market with low-priced fruit, on top of that, China has also boosted their pitaya fruit plantation, which may further diminish their demand for Taiwanese fruit. Another huge impact would come from the tariff reduction once we participate in the TPP. To confront these issues, the industry should stay on track of enhancing the production quality and safety alongside balancing the output capacity against the market demand. These goals would be achieved by promoting the high-quality production clusters, providing farmers with the fine varieties, introducing technical service groups to elevate growing techniques and to ensure higher and steady yields of premium quality crops, and implementing various measures from QR-code implementation, GAP (Good Agriculture Practice) labeling, organic farming, and traceability systems, which would raise the food safety standard by holding producers accountable for their products and also significantly differentiate local produce from imported one. Concerning the export, promoting the contractual relationships between merchants and farmers as well as building the registration system and improving the equipment in the supply chain would collectively enhance our competitiveness in the international market.
