Japanese farms are pioneering innovative ways to recycle waste food, transforming it into valuable resources. This sustainable approach not only reduces waste but also supports more eco-friendly farming practices. By repurposing leftover food as animal feed or compost, these farms are creating a circular economy that benefits both the environment and the agricultural sector. It's a powerful example of how traditional practices can evolve to address modern environmental challenges.
