Logos of the JIRCAS Fifth Medium to Long-Term Plan Research Programs
The major research and development activities of JIRCAS in the 5th Medium to Long-Term Plan which started in 2021, are grouped into the "Environment" and "Food" programs, with the aim of solving global-scale issues related to agriculture, forestry and fisheries. In addition, the "Information" program encompasses activities towards establishing a strategic information hub on the complex and diverse global environment and food system. We have created three logos to serve as symbol for each research program, and we are pleased to release these logos to the public.
