Activating Soil Life for Sustainable Productivity The concept of TOKYO8 is rooted in 35 years of microbial research conducted by Taiyo Yuka, a company specializing in detoxifying high-concentration sludge from Tokyo’s urban centers. By leveraging this expertise, they developed a liquid microbial preparation designed to restore the natural relationship between plants and soil organisms, which has been weakened by modern conventional farming methods using chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Originally developed to revive degraded soils, the technology improves nutrient availability and is highly effective across a wide range of Crops, with documented success in increasing the yields of Rice, Maize, Onion, Potato, and Tomato by up to 20%. Since its introduction in Africa in 2021, TOKYO8 has expanded to more than 13 African countries through an innovative local production franchise model. With operational production units already established in Malawi, the technology combines proven field performance with scalable manufacturing and distribution opportunities, creating sustainable business growth across the agricultural value chain.

Aflatoxin-safe fields and crops for safer food in Africa Aflasafe® technology plays a pivotal role in addressing the critical issue of aflatoxin contamination in Africa. Aflatoxins, produced by the fungus Aspergillus flavus, are highly toxic and cancer-causing poisons that infest staple crops, animal feeds, and processed foods, posing a severe health threat. Aflasafe®, a biocontrol solution developed in Africa, offers a cost-effective and natural alternative to chemical interventions. By reducing aflatoxin levels in food, Aflasafe® not only safeguards human and livestock health but also mitigates economic impacts, making food safer for consumption and trade, improving overall health, and preserving farm animal well-being. This innovative technology stands as a key strategy to combat the silent aflatoxin pandemic, which is responsible for 30% of liver cancer cases in Africa and weakens individuals against other diseases while also stunting children's growth.
