Marubeni is excited to announce the launch of a new service, Beeco Program, which utilizes a database infrastructure developed by the company that enables the efficient and real-time collection and integration of various production and financial data scattered throughout the dairy and livestock industry.

 

 

Background and Significance of the Service
Japan’s dairy and livestock industry faces numerous risks, including a shortage of labor due to aging and population decline, as well as challenges from external environmental changes. At the same time, there is a growing demand for reduced environmental impact, animal welfare, and diverse taste preferences. Through this service, Marubeni aims to formalize the experiences and expertise of producers and related industries, establishing a data collection infrastructure that fosters collaboration among specialists to drive improvements.

Overview of the Service
The service consists of three components tailored for feed companies, financial institutions, and producers. It enables the visualization and analysis of various data, enhances and streamlines farm management, and improves the efficiency of extensive operations. By sharing the collected data in a timely manner with authorized feed companies, financial institutions, and other industry stakeholders, the program aims to create new value and services within the industry.

Future Outlook
Marubeni aims to strengthen the international competitiveness of Japan’s dairy and livestock products and build a sustainable food supply chain, supporting the realization of an exciting industry for the next generation. Updates on development progress and service rollout will be announced on a dedicated website.*
