The event, hosted by Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Minister Norikazu Suzuki, was attended by ambassadors and others from about 60 countries on Wednesday.

During the event, five companies, including Plantx Corp., which operates a leaf lettuce factory, explained their businesses. Participants were offered food products made with advanced technology.
