Singapore's small but advanced vegetable farming industry is attracting Japanese firms that are eager to invest in or adopt its technology for use in Japan.
Singapore has in recent years become a test bed for high-tech farming as the government encourages farms to explore innovative methods to overcome the chronic shortage of land and to reduce reliance on imports.
One of the success stories is Sky Greens Farm, which has developed Singapore's first vertical farm, said to be one of a kind.
