During a visit in Japan, the Chinese Premier Li Keqiang and Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe visited “Eco-rin village” on 10 May 2018. The ecological model farm run by Aleph in Hokkaido addresses the challenges of sustainable agriculture and livestock industry.

The Premier had lunch with the Japanese Prime minister, Shinzo Abe, and stayed about 1 hour. Both visited "Tomato no Mori". The largest tomato plant that fruits over 15.000 tomatoes from one seed branches throughout the greenhouse by hydroponic cultivation. For both countries, advanced agriculture and safety of food are major issues.
