  • Those who have shown outstanding achievements in research and development that will lead to future technological innovation in agriculture, forestry, fisheries or related industries for a developing region, and who show great promise.
  • The winning candidates, in principle, must be able to attend the commendation ceremony and deliver a lecture in Japan, but the method of holding the commendation ceremony will be decided after taking into consideration the coronavirus infection status.
