ZHANGZHOU, Fujian: Thanks to the government's efforts to boost cross-Straits agricultural cooperation, farmers from Taiwan have been tasting success on the mainland.

"It is juicy and is just as sweet as those grown in Taiwan," He Wenyuan, a 49-year-old farmer from Taiwan said of his lianwu, or bell fruit, originally grown in Taiwan but now being farmed in Fujian Province.

He said the fruit was pesticide free and selling well at the 9th Cross-Straits Flower Expo, despite being relatively expensive at 100 yuan ($13) a box. During the annual flower and farm products expo, held last week in Zhangzhou in Fujian, farmers like He were happy to recount their success stories, after starting fruit businesses on the mainland.
