The power of the Moon can save humanity from food crisis: agriculture with lunar rhythmFood shortage crisis due to population growth
By 2050, the world’s population is expected to increase to 9.7 billion people, which will require a 70% increase in food production compared to today. However, the harvested area is not expected to expand. At this rate, the world is going to face a food shortage crisis.

Whenever we come across keywords such as these, we sense that—one day in the future—we will use up the Earth’s resources. Forests are one of those resources: they play an important role in protecting biological diversity. Now, however, forests are being destroyed and desertification is steadily advancing all over the world.

Products created through a meeting of many mindsThe thinking behind MONOZUKURI There are always many people involved in our MONOZUKURI (manufacturing and craftsmanship) process. Let’s take the example of Toyota’s Mirai fuel cell vehicle, which was launched in December 2020 following a complete redesign. This car uses many parts developed by us, which are unique to fuel cell vehicles. Below, we introduce the thoughts of the developers behind the development of these components found in the Mirai.

MONOZUKURI

Aiming for continuous improvement in technologySince 2006, the All Toyota Boshoku Skills Competition has been held with several aims: to raise the skills level of the entire company by confirming the skills level of each plant; to create a workplace culture where people can both teach and be taught through preparations for the competition; and to pass on the skills of managers and senior personnel to future generations.
