2. Agriculture Study Meeting #2

Now, I have planned the 2nd time of " Breakfast Meeting" with me. The purpose of the meeting is to know each other and think about agricultural study together. We had a first meeting last month and it was very interesting to know differences on our backgrounds. We had very good time and hope you can join this time.

The topic of this time is "What are agriculture related problems in your country?" I am looking forward to seeing you and talking about the problem over breakfast.

Please reply this email if you would like to join the meeting. The fee of the meeting is 100JPY and I am thinking to get some bread and drinks. If you prefer bringing your own breakfast, you do not have to pay. I am thinking that around five students be fit in my office.
