Farmdo is committed to technological innovation, with plans to establish smart greenhouses featuring AI-driven irrigation systems, drones, and self-guided vehicles. The company is also working to revitalize Japan’s aging agricultural workforce through training and job experiences. With patents in seven countries, Farmdo is expanding internationally, collaborating with the Japanese government and working on projects in Mongolia, Kenya, and Chile.
