Basic Introduction to pickled Chinese cabbage. The output of pickled Chinese cabbage in Dapi Township of Yunlin County accounts for more than 80% of the total output of pickled Chinese cabbage in Taiwan, known as the "hometown of pickled Chinese cabbage".

Every November or so, farmers take advantage of the gap after the second rice harvest to plant mustard in the field and pickle it into pickled Chinese cabbage. Until the Lunar New Year, it is the busiest time for harvesting and pickling. The collected mustard was transported back from the fields. In the past, it was a layer of mustard, and a layer of salt was discharged in a large barrel. After 25 days of sealed pickling, it became a delicious pickled Chinese cabbage. In recent years, in order to reduce costs, farmers have mostly switched to pickling in underground cement barrels. Pickled Chinese cabbage is a kind of seasoning that can remove oil and grease and help digestion. Due to its vacuum packaging, it allows everyone to buy and eat with peace of mind. The agricultural specialties of Dapi Township include mustard greens, butterfly orchids, sword orchids, peanuts, etc. Among them, mustard is the raw material of pickled pickled Chinese cabbage. The local planting area is 1500 hectares, which has been providing nearly 80% of pickled Chinese cabbage supplies in Taiwan for a hundred years. Therefore, the township is known as the "hometown of pickled Chinese cabbage". Farmers usually use the second stage rice as the "gap" after harvest to plant mustard in winter, of which Xing'an, Yiran, Beizhen, Xizhen and other villages have the largest output, accounting for more than 70% of the total output of the township.
