There is no doubt that Japan is an 'AW backward

In July 2023, it published the MAFF Management Guidelines for Each Livestock Breed with regard to AW' and published a document 'Animal Husbandry Management, etc. in Consideration of AW', which explains AW and introduces practical examples.

The guidelines are only an effort target, and MAFF's attitude to AW is very loose.　Japan exports very little livestock products abroad.

Thailand, Brazil and China are countries that want to export, so matching the world's most advanced (AW) trends will become their business strategy.
