Kaga no Teal
The producer

Kaga no Teal

In the heart of Ishikawa Prefecture, in the city of Kaga, a collective of young farmers has embarked on a pioneering initiative combining traditional know-how, sustainable agriculture, and respect for biodiversity. This project, called “Kaga no Teal”, was launched in 2014 , and takes its name from the migratory ducks (“teal” in English). Every autumn, these birds come to feed in their rice fields, motivating the collective to maintain cultivation methods without pesticides or chemical fertilizers. Today, ten producers work together in a structure where knowledge sharing and technical innovation go hand in hand with rigor and respect for life. Four varieties are produced, and each is entrusted to a specific producer to avoid cross-pollination and ensure the purity of the crops. This attention to detail extends to packaging, with vacuum sealing shortly after polishing to prolong the rice's freshness. The project is now expanding to export, aiming to introduce uncompromising Japanese rice—rich in history, flavor, and commitment—to the world. It also appeals to chefs and fans of natural foods.
