In FY1970 several big events took place in Taiwan agriculture. Among them the most important ones were: (1) the promulgation of a new agricultural policy by the Government for the further strengthening of food production, agricultural research, farm mechanization, marketing and agricultural financing, and for the development of marginal and slope lands; (2) the severe damage to land and crops by Typhoons, Elsie and Flossie, which not only drastically cut down the overall agricultural production for that period but also greatly lowered land productivity immediately afterward; (3) a sharp decrease in planted acreage of dryland crops and winter crops due to rapid industrialization and urbanization: and (4) the tragic death of Mr. Y. K. King, JCRR Secretary-General, in a car accident in June 1970.
