By GlobalDataYulon Group says it has been committed to sustainable development for 70 years, such as Yulon Motor’s practical actions to protect Taiwan’s native species and biodiversity. Since 2022, a native tree species restoration park has been planned in the Sanyi Factory area, working with Taiwan Reforestation Association to jointly plan and build the ‘Yulon Mountain Villa’, and referring to the Forestry Bureau’s survey of Taiwan’s native plants for seed collection and seedling cultivation by volunteers. So far, 16 investigation spots, 209 woody plants records, 99 seeds collection have been completed, and 1,288 seedlings are being restored.
