Growing Tomatoes in Humid Heat: Contribution to SDGs with the IT Greenhouse [Panasonic]

Tomatoes and strawberries are difficult to grow in hot and humid subtropical regions.
Panasonic and several other companies took on the challenge of growing delicious tomatoes and strawberries in the extreme environment of Ishigaki island located in a subtropical region. They are employing the latest technology to carry out a project under the auspices of the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries. Advances in this technology will enable local production and consumption of fruits and vegetables in marginal environments on the planet, which will also contribute toward achieving the SDGs.
