About
Challenges
Food shortages, declining production due to extreme weather conditions, and the aging of farmers are serious social challenges. We believe that one of our missions is to try to put a stop to this critical situation and make the future of agriculture brighter.
Developing a comprehensive agricultural management support service
Even if farmers are able to produce high quality agricultural products, the efforts of them may not be rewarded in the conventional supply chain, such as “consignment sales” that are subject to market prices. In contrast, Our service can solve the essential problem of “profitable agricultural management” for farmers. At the same time, we constitute a unique value chain that ranges from improving the efficiency of production, increasing the added value of their produce, and improving the health of agricultural management.
Happy-style agriculture
Our agricultural support service provided is a “new form of agriculture” that enables anyone to establish a profitable base for their farming business and achieve efficient, sustainable, and stable production.
Bringing “Happiness Quality” to All
Mission
Vision
Setting the Global Standard
in Agriculture
― From Production to Distribution
Message
Our vision is to establish ourselves as an “infrastructure service company” for the agricultural industry, encompassing everything from production to distribution. We aim to advance our services not only within Japan’s agricultural sector but also in the global agricultural market.
Through our agricultural support services, we are committed to promoting the adoption of smart agriculture as a “new model of farming,” contributing to the revitalization and sustainable growth of the agricultural industry.
As the digital transformation (DX) of agriculture accelerates in the digital age, we will actively participate in research and development initiatives leveraging advanced technology. Our goal is to serve as a key player bridging the fields of cultivation, business, and infrastructure.
