Her advocate stimulates the emergence of environmentalism. Although pesticide became an environmental problem in Taiwan in 1970’s, but the issue could be traced back to the Japanese colonial period. In this project, I will try to investigate the origin of agrochemicals and pesticide, discover its production, distribution and application process, and reflect its impact to the whole environment of Taiwan.農藥臺灣農業史化學工業史DDTpesticideDDTagricultural history of Taiwanhistory of chemical industry
