秋田たかのす農業協同組合

The JA Akita Takanosu Agricultural Cooperative manages rice fields and vegetable cultivation across the fertile lands along the Yoneshiro River in northern Akita Prefecture.

Founded in September 1993, the cooperative underwent a significant expansion in February 2019, strengthening its connections with local agricultural producers and distribution networks.

The cooperative maintains strong ties with the Matagi hunting traditions of the region while supporting local farmers in preserving traditional agricultural methods.

Members can sell their agricultural products directly to consumers through designated marketplaces and receive technical support for improving cultivation techniques.

Located in a designated heavy snowfall zone, the cooperative adapts its agricultural practices to the specific climate conditions of northern Japan.
