The farmers 'association also encourages older, physically less able farmers to lease their land to contract farming centers, which then collect the idle-field subsidies. Though elderly owners who lease their land receive only NT $ 30,000 per season in rental income, they are more at ease knowing that their fields are being cared for.
農會也鼓勵年紀大、體力不佳的老農，把土地租給「代耕中心」耕作，休耕補助由代耕中心領取，地主一期收 3 萬元的租金；雖然收入少了些，但農地有人照顧總是比較安心。
