This press release is a dream of “Nikudo” to support the masters of livestock farming in the era of ethical consumption. About meat road
Fractal Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiba City, Chiba Prefecture, President and CEO: Kei Ishikawa) operates the high-end meat specialty store “Nikudo” by focusing on “animal welfare” and “domestic production for domestic consumption”, and how to raise livestock. We support producers who are particular about their efforts and have a sense of mission.
Efforts to protect Japan’s livestock industry that are currently attracting attention
Japan’s livestock industry, which has relied on imported feed, continues to face a difficult business environment due to the unstable world situation and weak yen.
Under such circumstances, efforts to utilize domestically produced natural feed such as pasture-raised and eco-feed are attracting attention.
Since its founding, Nikudo has carefully selected producers who are particular about feed and raising methods, and sells it as
“high-quality meat other than A5 rank Wagyu beef.”
Domestic feed and labor-intensive breeding methods require higher production costs and higher selling prices. In order to help buyers understand, Nikudo not only sells meat, but also introduces the producers’ commitment in detail.
・Grass-fed Wagyu beef raised on abandoned farmland is good for both the cows and the soil: Sakaue’s “Grass-Fed Wagyu Beef”
Sakaue, which was originally an agricultural corporation that farmed on farmland and reclaimed abandoned cultivated land, decided to start a livestock farming business because grazing cattle on abandoned cultivated land is good for both the cows and the land (soil). I started growing it as part of the.
This method, which is good for cows, people, and the land (soil), is called “recycling agriculture,” and we believe it is a form of sustainable agriculture.

・Free-range pigs fed with a blend of local seafood – Mr. Sugita’s free-range pigs
The free-range pigs raised by Mr. Sugita in Miyagi Prefecture are fed with homemade fermented feed that is a blend of local produce and seafood.
This feed brings out the inherent goodness of pigs to the fullest, resulting in a taste that is free from odor and taste.
If you change the food and environment, you will be able to see for yourself how much the taste changes.

・Tanaka Farm is a grass-fed farm that started with the desire to deliver high-quality, safe meat to consumers.
Mr. Tanaka of Tanaka Farm in Hokkaido thought, “Isn’t it the natural way to feed livestock (animals) with grass, which they are supposed to eat in nature?” and decided to raise grass-fed sheep and cows. I started.
Tanaka Farm’s pasture is mainly fed by grass that grows on a vast 30 hectare (more than 6 times the size of Tokyo Dome) cultivated using fermented organic fertilizer.
We also take the environment into consideration by feeding the animals with soy sauce and beet pulp that would normally be discarded, and are working to create an environment where humans and animals can coexist.
