【About the smart sericulture system】
This is our unique new material production system that industrially reproduces the advanced rearing
management technology for silkworms and know-how of the sericulture industry in Japan, which is
about to be lost due to the aging of sericultural farmers. It covers a series of processes from
silkworm rearing to cocoon treatment.

We have also participated in the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (MAFF) Commissioned
project study "Project for the Creation of New Industries through Sericulture Revolution" and have
developed more advanced smart sericulture systems. The state-of-the-art system of "Mayu Lab" is the
result of this project.
