Japán élelmiszer-technológiai innovációk a globális élelmezésbiztonsági kihívások megoldására
Az automatizált vertikális farmoktól a talajt nem igénylő termesztőfóliákig Japánban olyan technológiák születnek, amelyek világszinten forradalmasíthatják a mezőgazdaságot, csökkentve a föld-, víz- és munkaerőigényt, miközben a kistermelőket is erősítik.
00:00Rain or shine, this Japanese farm produces 30,000 heads of lettuce every day,
00:08with less land, water and labor than traditional farming.
00:12From automated vertical farms to soil-free film farming that protects crops from disease,
00:17Japan is pioneering new technologies to feed its population.
00:21But these technologies aren't just feeding the Japanese.
00:25In this episode of Global Japan, we're looking at how they can make an impact worldwide,
00:29helping other nations secure their food supply even under the harshest conditions.
00:39Techno Farm Keihana in Kyoto Prefecture is one of the world's most advanced vertical farms.
00:44Highly automated, it uses precise LED lighting, climate-controlled growing environments
00:50and robotic systems to plant, harvest and pack 30,000 heads of lettuce a day.
00:56Only around 60 humans are needed, exclusively for monitoring and quality control.
01:02The factory's production stability sets it apart from competitors,
01:11guaranteeing the same yields year-round.
01:14To optimize production and cut costs, workers collect data on temperature, air flow, carbon dioxide and water use.
01:17The factory's new owners hope to lower operational costs to make it easier for developing countries to adopt this technology.
01:21The plant health products is currently a constant development of the new crop.
01:24The plant-developing plant-colored plant-products of Mt. Kumbach
01:25work, the production industry, and how we're asked,
01:26to evaluate, cost-to-powering development.
01:27The plant-development, and production stability sets it apart from competitors,
01:28guaranteeing the same yields year-round.
01:29To optimize production and cut costs, workers collect data on temperature,
01:30air flow, carbon dioxide and water use.
01:34The factory's new owners hope to lower operational costs to make it easier for developing countries to adopt this technology.
01:41Because it uses little water and land, this model can be adapted to hot, dry regions where these resources are scarce.
02:06But what about places where soil is unsuitable for farming?
02:10Another Japanese company, Mebio Inc., has developed a way to grow crops anywhere, from the middle of the desert to the rooftop of a building.
02:19This is our film, iMac film.
02:23iMac film replaces soil, acting like a filter against viruses and microbes.
02:29The network size of the film is very small, nanometer size.
02:35Therefore, the film does not absorb microbes or viruses.
02:40Plants grow on the surface of the film, absorbing water and nutrients directly from the hydrogel.
02:45This method uses much less water than traditional farming, and about 75% less than hydroponics.
02:51From the outset, iMac film was envisioned as a global solution to food insecurity.
02:58Mebio already holds patents in 120 countries, including Botswana, where the technology was introduced to respond to water shortages.
03:06Participants in Mebio's Botswana and India pilots were mostly women, showing iMac film's potential as a pathway to female entrepreneurship.
03:15In Hyogo prefecture, Shizuka Fujimoto started a partnership.
03:43In Hyogo prefecture, Shizuka Fujimoto started a tomato farm using iMac film four years ago.
03:48It's her first time working in agriculture.
03:50She chose this method for its ease of use, so she could hire more women.
03:53I've also thought about how to work in women's farming farming.
03:58It's a really beautiful environment, and I want to create a place where many women can grow.
04:06The tomatoes are more nutritious and sweeter than with traditional farming, so she can sell them for a higher price, making her small farm more profitable.
04:14Shizuka has hosted visitors from the Philippines and India to teach them about film farming.
04:19Mebio Inc. is currently deploying the technology in countries where crises curtail agriculture, including Ukraine.
04:39With an eagerness to experiment, Japan has become a testbed for food technologies that respond to global problems.
04:51In a world facing climate shocks and food insecurity, these innovations can offer a path to resilience.
04:57See you soon.
04:59My husband has opened to the queda and my life.
05:00I'm St. John Yusuf, thank you for sticking with me.
