Inspection of fields in the Ryusei area
In the Ryuunishi area, there is dilapidated farmland that has become difficult to manage due to the aging of farmers and lack of successors. In addition, there are many cases of damage to agricultural products caused by deer!
There are many stones mixed in with these fields, and the company will be studying ways to rehabilitate the wasteland.

With boundless love, gratitude, and prayers for the bright, joyful, and sparkling world of the future that the children of the next generation will depict.
