Course of Agro-Biological Science

This course offers education and research aimed at establishing new biological production technology to enable highly productive sustainable agriculture that protects the environment using the multifaceted functions of crops, livestock, insects, microorganisms, soil and so on.

We offer education and research founded on practical science that integrates theory and practice, with wide ranging research from molecular biology to regional, domestic and overseas farming developments.

Research Laboratories Main Subject
