Reconnecting a Broken Cycle: 'Bio-reconnection' Begins in a Marginal Settlement

Reconnecting the cycle of life that was once broken through wisdom and technology.

What if the soil regained its original power? What if the forest, fields, and sea were reconnected once more?

And if a society where people can live within that cycle becomes a reality? We are now trying to make that future a reality.

Currently, in many regions of Japan, maintaining settlements themselves has become difficult due to depopulation and aging. Farmlands are becoming abandoned, mountains are left untended and decaying, and the relationship between people and nature is being lost.

This is not just a regional issue, but a 'structural problem of a society where the cycle between people and nature has been broken.'

We believe it is necessary to reconnect this cycle that was once broken. This is not simply about going back to the past, but about reconstructing it in a way suitable for the coming era. It is about reuniting natural activities and human activities through wisdom and technology.

Bio-reconnection We call this concept 'Bio-reconnection'—reconnecting once-broken cycles with wisdom and technology.

Yuugiboushi Ehime is engaged in agriculture that practices this Bio-reconnection. We promote soil restoration using biochar, regenerative agriculture, and carbon farming to revitalize the region while addressing climate change.
