AboutAbout the lab
Linking agriculture and welfare from the ground up
Prof. Yukisato, in the field of Food System Studies, focuses on agriculture-welfare collaboration (nofuku renkei) and domestically produced wheat and barley.
Agriculture-welfare collaboration is an initiative in which the agricultural and welfare sectors work together to create workplaces and places of belonging for people with disabilities in agriculture.
From the perspective of food security, the lab also studies the food system initiatives needed to increase domestic production of wheat and barley.
In some cases, a graduate and Prof. Yukisato have co-authored a paper based on the graduate's thesis and published it in an academic journal.
