The 2020 Basic Plan sets an export target of five trillion yen ($48 billion) for 2030 and sets targets to increase domestic production of all products except for rice. The Basic Plan also calls for the public and private sectors to collaborate on a new movement that fosters increased understanding of the importance of supporting agriculture and rural areas for the next generation.
