Message from instructor(s)
In order to have a healthy diet, it is desirable to eat food products and processed foods that make the most of rich natural ingredients. However, under various environmental and physical conditions, functional agricultural, forestry, fisheries, and livestock products and processed foods are required. I hope that students will learn from experts in "food" and "agriculture, forestry, fisheries, and livestock" with the goal of realizing a healthy and rich dietary life.
