Nature Master® Success: A New Era in Agriculture
Shoko Tsusho, a leading materials trading company based in Minato, Tokyo, has announced that its biodegradable mulch film,
Nature Master®, has successfully garnered over
2000 orders within its first year since its launch in February. As Japan faces a significant decrease in agricultural workers, estimated to decline by about 23% from 2020 to 2025, the need for solutions that enhance productivity in farming has never been more urgent.
Addressing Agricultural Challenges
The introduction of biodegradable mulch film responds precisely to the rising demands for labor-saving agricultural materials. The Japanese government is also promoting the adoption of these technologies through subsidy programs, further enhancing their appeal. Nature Master® is designed to decompose naturally, thus eliminating the need for disposal after usage and allowing farmers to enhance their productivity significantly.
Features of Nature Master®
Nature Master® stands out due to its unique formulation, manufacturing techniques, and the ability to adjust its decomposition period according to the specific agricultural needs. The high durability, glossiness, and moisture-retaining properties have been particularly well-received by farmers.
- - Biodegradable Nature: Made from materials that decompose in the soil thanks to microbial activity, reducing the environmental impact of farming.
- - Support for Farmers: By using Nature Master®, farmers can experience a removal of labor costs associated with the collection and disposal of traditional mulch films.
- - Official Certification: Nature Master® is certified under Japan's Biodegradable Plastic Mark system, reassuring consumers of its eco-friendliness.
Impressive Initial Results
After launching the product in February, the demand surged leading to over 2000 orders from various regions, from the northern part of Aomori to the southern area of Kumamoto. Farmers have adopted this innovative solution for a variety of crops, including sweet potatoes, taro, corn, potatoes, onions, lettuce, garlic, peppers, carrots, and pumpkins. Feedback from farmers highlights the ease of use, the visual appeal, and the effectiveness of the film's decomposition speed.
Future Prospects and Expansion Plans
To further enhance the market presence of biodegradable mulch films like Nature Master®, Shoko Tsusho plans to participate in exhibitions and utilize social media for promotional activities. They are also focusing on creating an online sales platform, making it even easier for farmers to obtain these eco-conscious products.
