農業
/nóngyè/Roman
English meaning: Agriculture
Definition
The cultivation of land and raising of crops and livestock. Taiwan's subtropical climate enables production of diverse fruits (pineapple, guava, mango, lychee). While agriculture's share of GDP has declined significantly as Taiwan industrialized, agricultural exports — especially tropical fruits — remain important.
Example
“臺灣的熱帶水果聞名於世，高品質農產品廣受歡迎。”
In English: “Taiwan's tropical fruits are world-famous, and high-quality agricultural products are widely popular.”
Literary Heritage
“不患寡而患不均，不患貧而患不安。”
/Bù huàn guǎ ér huàn bù jūn, bù huàn pín ér huàn bù ān./
“Do not worry about having too little; worry about inequality. Do not worry about poverty; worry about instability.”
