内田匡彦
UCHIDA MASAHIKO
Born and raised in Fukuoka. He doesn't want his ancestral land, Kawaminami Town in Miyazaki Prefecture (now the land for banana cultivation), to be used by anyone, so he sets up a business to do agriculture (bananas) in this area and lives alone. Currently, he runs a banana orchard in Vietnam using Japan-style banana cultivation know-how, and exports the bananas to Japan.

Commitment to the product
Who are supporting us?
Originally, this land was the ancestral land of the Uchida family, and before starting this business, it was unused and on the verge of losing its connection. My father's generation was born and raised here (he left here after graduating from school and moved to the city), I myself was born and raised in another place, and my grandparents who lived in this place passed away. I didn't want this place to disappear, so I decided to leave my family and put myself in this place because I had to do something with this place. I started thinking about what to do then, and instead of thinking "should I build a new building here" in the countryside, where there are not many people, I decided to start "farming" by using the hut for "livestock" and the "rice harvest" field that my ancestors had originally done. As for why it was bananas, it was a half-joke that "rare crops are more interesting because they are more interesting," but the plan began, and the cultivation of the soil and the construction of the greenhouse began. The brand name "NEXT716" is a combination of "NEXT," which means "agriculture in a new era from now on," and "716," which is the street number of the land, with the meaning of "never forgetting that we are making it on the land of our ancestors."
In order to give the "NEXT" feeling of the brand name "NEXT716" (next generation), we decided to make "crops that no one else is doing", and we built a greenhouse on this land and started cultivation so that we would not forget that we were working on "the land of our ancestors (716)".
Commitment to the product
We are conscious of "safety and security," which is the image of "domestic bananas" from all consumers Mr./Ms., and we are conscious that there are almost no farmers who grow "domestic bananas" Mr./Ms. them, and we try to cultivate them "without using any pesticides." Because it is a natural product, insects will always come to it, but I don't use drugs to get rid of them. We will manage it by hand. AS A RESULT, THE FRUIT IS PRODUCED AS A "SAFE AND SECURE BANANA THAT CAN BE EATEN UP TO THE SKIN", WHICH IS CALLED "SDGS BANANA THAT ALSO USES THE SKIN".
We often receive feedback from people who say, "Until now, the only option was imported bananas," and "I really want to put something better in my mouth."
