ONSOH is a biotech venture dedicated to researching and selling feed for livestock and aquaculture, utilizing 'RG92', a microalgae derived from Beppu Hot Springs. Through this fundraising, the company will strengthen its sales and research systems, conduct field trials, and build domestic and international partner networks to accelerate the social implementation of technologies aimed at improving primary industry productivity and sustainable food supply.

Key Highlights: - Applications on FUNDINNO are open from June 8 to June 22, 2026. Target funding is 9.9 million JPY, with a cap of 99.99 million JPY. - Expanding the use of 'RG92' microalgae into livestock and aquaculture feed, drinking water, and formulated feed. - Accumulating empirical data across multiple animal and fish species, including improved flounder survival rates and reduced mortality in pig farming. - Developing the 'Onso' brand for livestock and aquatic products, such as 'Onso Flounder' and 'Onso Buri-hira'. - Features high compatibility with existing feed and water systems, minimizing the burden on producers for adoption.

Background: Balancing 'Productivity' and 'Sustainability' in Primary Industries Livestock and aquaculture sectors are facing multiple concurrent challenges, including rising feed costs, exchange rate volatility, labor shortages, disease risks, and the need to transition away from antibiotic-dependent production. Metrics such as feed efficiency, survival rates, yield, egg-laying rates, and weight gain are directly linked to producer profitability and food supply stability.

ONSOH's Business: Bringing Hot Spring Algae 'RG92' from Lab to Farm ONSOH was established as a spin-out from SARABiO Hot Spring Microbe Research Institute, focusing on the livestock and aquaculture sectors. The proprietary material 'RG92' is a microalgae discovered in the harsh environment of Beppu Hot Springs. Research focused on intestinal health and cellular metabolism has validated its potential in livestock and aquaculture. Currently, the company is deploying RG92 in liquid extract and powder forms for feed and drinking water, as well as advancing into formulated feed for large-scale producers.

Field Trial Results and the 'Onso' Brand ONSOH has validated the potential of RG92 across various species, including fish, chickens, pigs, and cattle. Empirical data from field trials under specific conditions has confirmed results such as a 30% improvement in flounder survival rates and an 11% reduction in mortality in pig farming. Furthermore, the company is expanding the 'Onso' brand for livestock and aquatic products grown with RG92, achieving shipments to markets like Toyosu Market and major conveyor-belt sushi chains.
