\u2014 Promoting Farmland Visualization Using Satellite Data and Digital Mapping Technologies \u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sagri Co., Ltd. (Head Office: Tamba City, Hyogo Prefecture; CEO: Shunsuke Tsuboi) is pleased to announce that it has been selected as a solution provider under the \u201cRural Area Impact Solution Implementation Program\u201d launched by Japan\u2019s Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (MAFF).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This program invites and supports initiatives from across Japan that can generate social and environmental \u201cimpact\u201d to address various challenges facing rural and fishing communities. Selected solutions are promoted through collaboration with local governments and tailored implementation support. Each selected initiative is expected to be matched with up to three local regions, accelerating field-level execution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25a0 Our Selected Theme<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sagri\u2019s selected initiative aims to \u201cvisualize farmland using satellite data and digital mapping technologies to promote optimal farmland use through improved matching systems.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Japan facing urgent issues such as the spread of abandoned farmland and underutilized land, Sagri\u2019s AI-powered solutions\u2014capable of analyzing land use and detecting abandoned plots from satellite imagery\u2014offer a practical path toward revitalization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25a0 Three Flexible Services to Address Regional Needs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sagri offers three distinct yet complementary services that can be customized and combined to meet the unique needs of local governments:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Actaba: A satellite and AI-based service that quickly identifies abandoned farmland across wide areas, dramatically streamlining the time and labor typically required for manual field inspections. It also supports efficient patrol planning and result management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detaba: A mobile app that uses satellite data and AI to estimate crop types. This tool significantly reduces the workload of field verification for crop surveys conducted by local governments, agricultural cooperatives (JA), and agricultural policy councils. GPS-based field photo capture and navigation features make it user-friendly, even for first-time users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ninata-ba: A digital matching platform that connects farmland owners who want to sell or lease their land with prospective users. Based on insights from \u201cvisualized farmland\u201d data, it supports optimal matchmaking to promote land utilization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Product details (Japanese): https:\/\/sagri.tokyo\/farmland-utilization\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through these services, Sagri is committed to contributing to the sustainable development of rural regions, leveraging satellite and AI technologies in close collaboration with local communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
