Crop Production & Physiology Division


We strive to develop technologies for stable food crop production, digital cultivation and carbon reducing cultivation.
  • Develop foundational technology and provide on-site support to production complexes for promotion of policy on floury rice
    • Developing and distributing technologies customized to floury rice cultivation and on-site technological support
  • Develop rice cultivation technology to reduce greenhouse gas (methane) emissions and verify its effects
    • Non-puddling transplanting
  • Investigate and assess impact of climate change on food crops
    • Checking for shortened heading date of barley with climate change
    • Analysis of reduced yield when cultivating in marginal areas versus areas suitable for cultivation
  • Develop simple-type automated water gate and compliance monitoring device for paddy water management
    • Developing automated water gate reduces irrigation water by 67.8%; developed compliance monitoring device to check for low-carbon paddy water and certification platform
