As a long-term partner of Japan, the Netherlands is keen to work hand in hand with Japan in shaping a prosperous future. By combining Japanese ingenuity with Dutch expertise in horticulture, we can tackle challenges in Japan’s food production together. Through collaboration on smart solutions like Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA), we can fully unlock the potential of Japan’s agricultural sector—boosting production, creating appealing jobs, increasing economic opportunities and contributing to a healthier society for Japan and beyond. Let’s farm the future together.
The Netherlands is excited to showcase Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) as a key driver of sustainable food production. This approach allows for year-round cultivation of fresh, healthy fruits, vegetables, and flowers in nearly any climate, using less water, land, and energy than traditional methods. CEA can also create more economic opportunities, inspire innovation, and revitalise rural areas, offering a future where agriculture is both resilient and profitable.
The Netherlands, with our history of energy-efficient and sustainable horticulture, is a trusted partner in advancing CEA. By combining Japan’s strengths in robotics and precision engineering with Dutch expertise in modern cultivation, we can create a long-term partnership to achieve economic growth, innovation and a healthy society. By working together with Japan, combining government, industry, and academic expertise, we can accelerate innovation in CEA to create a healthy, more sustainable, and secure food system for all.
