These girls "change" the agriculture in Japan!! They start this because they want young people to know how import to keep agriculture in Japan by your people..They are "pioneers". Because of "change" of earth (global warming, bees dying, storm and etc), it is getting hard to grow crops / farm products like rice, wheat, fruits and etc And because of "change" of economy and family constructions, young people don't want to take over hard jobs like agriculture...Then, Young woman and Former CEO stood up and started to make a "change"...keep old and good things...

At first, they never grew anything as you see...they are fashion models but they didn't give up...learned from farmers and made it by theirselves.

Now, She sells their rice online...I think it is just for business but for seizing an opportunity for young and old people getting interesting in food and agriculture.
