JA offers some study programs of food and agriculture, giving the opportunities of farm work experience for children in elementary schools (or farm fields), in cooperation with our groups of the youth, women and farmers.
We also accept consumers who want to experience farm work and become familiar with an agricultural producing process. Through the study program, they can deepen their understanding of the producing areas and agriculture.
