埤頭鄉 Pitou Township
位在濁水溪沖積扇上，舊濁水溪流經本鄉與北斗、開闢成大
埤，以供農田灌溉，而本鄉因位於大埤之頭，故稱之為埤頭。為
彰化縣唯一一個有機米生產地；近年來埤頭工業區的設立，以食
品加工及餐具塑膠相關製造為主，帶動了當地的經濟發展。
Pitou Township is situated at the alluvial fan of Jhuoshui River.
Old Jhuoshui River flows through Pitou and Peitou, which was built
into a giant water pool for paddy field irrigation. Pitou is situated at
the upper side of the giant water pool so it was named Pitou literally.
Pitou Township is the only production center for organic rice in
Changhua County. Recently, the establishment of Pitou Industrial
Park, whose manufacturers are mostly food processing factories 埤頭／稻米博物館 Pitou／Rice Museum
or cutlery plastic factories, has helped boost Pitou’s economic
development.
