Smart and Sustainable Agriculture Research Division develops researches to support food security and ecosecurity, and also conducts agricultural research by using research field for industrialization support researches.
In this division, we use the latest technologies for agriculture, such as employment of robots, IT, and electronics for agricultural production and plant factories. Furthermore, we also develop researches for conservation of biological resources and diversity, diversification of resource usage, and functional improvement of bioresources for smart and sustainable agriculture. We also aim to integrate our research with the field of ecology, environmental sciences, and business administration.
