Japan's rice terraces (Tanada) are praised for their rural beauty, but their steep slopes and irregular shapes make farming incredibly difficult. As a result, they are rapidly disappearing.

Transforming these increasingly abandoned rural fields into productive lands through technology is exactly what modern AgriTech should be striving for.
