The agricultural history is interesting. During the Japanese occupation, Japan built the local port for export. They began employing local Haka (Pacific island aboriginals) to cultivate the fields. This is a photo of Yoshino Village from before World War II, of the production of sugar cane...

This is one of many rice fields you'll find in Hualien. The region is known for agriculture and has long been a breadbasket for Taiwan. The climate is ideal for cultivating tropical fruit varieties.
