Gint to Participate in Japan's Agricultural and Livestock Trade Fair, "J-Agri"

Gint (CEO Yong-Hyeon Kim), an agricultural digital transformation technology company, participated in the J-Agri, a specialized agricultural and livestock trade fair held in Tokyo, Japan, and unveiled its next-generation agricultural machinery solutions.

This year's expo, with the participation of approximately 850 agricultural and livestock-related companies from around the world, was evaluated as demonstrating the trend of fusion between traditional agricultural and livestock industries and digital technology, with the increasing proportion of technology-based companies such as smart farms, agricultural drones, and indoor farming.

Gint unveiled the next-generation model of its autonomous agricultural machinery solution, Pluva Auto, for the first time in the Japanese market. This model features an upgraded autonomous driving module that automatically switches driving modes based on crop type and terrain conditions. It also offers enhanced usability, including real-time satellite map and camera-based monitoring of operations, and automatic post-operation report generation.

Also on display was the unmanned pest control robot for orchards, the "Fluva Robotics – SS Machine" (GT-SS500). This device aims to automate pest control in orchards and has garnered attention as a potential solution to Japan's aging population and labor shortages.

Gint has officially entered the Japanese market by establishing a local subsidiary in conjunction with the launch of Fluva Auto in Japan in 2024. It is expanding its technological competitiveness in Japan based on a diverse product lineup, including autonomous driving, AI-based crop management, unmanned pesticide spraying robots, and electric agricultural machinery. Last September, it was selected for the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE)'s "Asia Startup Hub" support program.

Kim Yong-hyun, CEO of Gint, said, “Japan is a market where the aging of the agricultural population is rapidly increasing and demand for digital agriculture is rapidly expanding,” and added, “Gint will focus on technological advancement and localization strategies so that it can lead global agricultural technology innovation, focusing on the Asian market.”
