In 2005, duck eggs from Hsien-hsi township and Shen-gang township in Changhua County were detected to contain dioxin exceeding the levels permitted by EU regulations. Ducks and duck eggs from eleven (11) duck farms were destroyed to prevent contaminated products from reaching the marketplace. Among them, duck meat and duck eggs from eight farms contained dioxin exceeding the levels permitted (seven in Hsien-hsi Township and one in Shen-gang Township. The other three farms were not found with excessive dioxin (one in Hsien-hsi Township and two in Shen-gang Township).
