M103866/202405070376/_prw_PI3fl_3lq91j95.jpg Singapore relies on imports for more than 90% of its food, and low food self-sufficiency is a social problem. To address this issue, Singapore is pursuing a "30 by 30" initiative aimed at raising its food self-sufficiency rate to 30% by 2030. Agriculture utilizing food technology such as cell-cultured meat and other technologies has garnered attention in this initiative as the country’s next growth industry, and Singapore has been working in earnest to foster this industry.
Established in 2016 in Singapore, NX Global Engineering is a company that handles heavy haulage and maintenance for a variety of plants and factories. The members who took part in this recent training tour commented that the program had boosted their awareness of the importance of food production in Singapore and given them an opportunity to think about their own roles in achieving sustainable societies.
The NX Group will continue actively communicating with local communities and engaging in community-based social activities with the aim of realizing sustainable societies.
