UCHINO Co., Ltd. will hold a rice planting experience on May 24, 2026, in Kazo, Saitama. This event is part of the 'UCHINO Rice Project,' which aims to connect producers and consumers while addressing agricultural challenges like aging populations and rising costs. The project, originating from an employee benefit program providing 3kg of rice monthly, has been expanded into a corporate service that supports farmers' income stability and contributes to social welfare through rice donations to local communities.
