E-cat kit introduction case: Ashikawa Farm

The amount that can be transported at one time has significantly increased, reducing the fatigue associated with transportation!

We would like to introduce a case study of the introduction of the "E-cat kit" at Ashikawa Farm, which cultivates various citrus fruits in Shizuoka Prefecture. Before the introduction, a significant challenge was the physical exhaustion and inefficiency caused by transporting over 300 kilograms of harvested produce each day. After the introduction, the number of workers needed for transportation decreased from three to almost one, allowing for an increase in the number of people available for cutting, leading to more efficient harvesting. Most importantly, the fatigue from transportation was significantly reduced. [Case Overview] ■ Challenge: Containers weighing about 20 kilograms were carried one by one on shoulders to the truck, manually transporting them over a distance of 30 to 50 meters. ■ Results: - After the introduction, the amount harvested increased by 1.5 times compared to before. - It became possible to plant mandarin trees in a more efficient arrangement. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
