Miso Tenjin, also known as Mioya Tenjin, is a Shinto deity venerated in parts of Japan in connection with agriculture and food, particularly grains and the fermentation-based staples derived from them. Local tradition associates the deity with the sustenance and cultivation of crops, and shrines or small altars dedicated to Miso Tenjin are typically found near agricultural communities where such harvests hold economic and cultural importance. Devotional practices tied to this figure are generally understood as expressions of gratitude for the land's yield rather than as records of proven or guaranteed effects.
