2. Business characteristics

No environmental restrictions, Seed potato cultivation system that maximizes high quality and productivity

1

Planning production possible without environmental restrictions

By artificially controlling the growing environment of plants through state-of-the-art facilities, Planned production is possible because there are almost no restrictions on location and climate.

2

Supply of high-quality and safe agricultural products

Block external disaster factors such as pests and pests and use pesticides and chemical fertilizers Contributing to the promotion of public health by supplying safe agricultural products.

3

Stabilization of agricultural product prices and
farm household income

Because planned production is possible, by controlling the supply amount for each cultivated item, Contribute to stabilization of agricultural product prices and preserve farm household income.

4

Maximize productivity

Through automated seed potato cultivation facilities and a control device with advanced IT technology, Mass production of plants is possible with little labor.

5

Land Use Efficiency

It can be mass-produced in a small area compared to the existing soil cultivation. Efficient land use is possible as it is produced all year round.

3. Technical characteristics and R&D plans

A scientific farming system that controls production and product quality by combining agriculture and state-of-the-art IT technologies.

It is a so-called factory production system that produces seed potatoes in the same standard and quality as a product. It can be said to be a state-of-the-art production system of agriculture.

Environmental factors such as light, temperature, moisture, CO2 concentration, wind speed, and nutrients of seed potatoes are controlled by the computer control system, etc. It promotes the growth of seed potatoes by artificially controlling them to maintain optimal environmental conditions.

Breaking away from the existing production method that relies on the natural environment, artificial light source equipment instead of the sun and human labor. Maximize productivity by using automated mechanical facilities and quantities and artificial culture medium.

Not only is it not limited to the location and environment, but it is also possible to plan to adjust the production volume, quality, and production timing. It can be said to be a future agricultural system in which a wide range of advanced IT technologies such as computers, controls, and measurements are applied in combination.
