Why it matters for urban farming
For citizen-driven urban farms, the Noufuku JAS offers a valuable framework for promoting social inclusion and adding value to their produce. By involving people with disabilities in the production process and seeking this certification, urban farms can enhance the trustworthiness and brand appeal of their products. This not only opens doors to ethical consumer markets but also reinforces the social mission of urban agriculture, demonstrating a commitment to community welfare and inclusive practices.
