The Honai region is the production center of Gobioidei, and there are many millionaires who are blessed with mineral resources and are interested in the breeding business. It seems that it was. This sailing ship carried rice from Nagasaki and Miyazaki to Osaka and traded local specialties, so it can be said to be the source of voyage and commercial development. There were many outpatient stimuli, and it seems that the locals also showed an enterprising spirit. Uwa Spinning Company was established in Kawanoishi in 1887 as the first spinning industry in the Shikoku region. At first, it was a small factory with a spinning machine with a weight of over 2,000, but after that, it developed into a factory with a weight of over 10,000. Its establishment seems to have left a great achievement in laying the foundation for the development of commerce and industry in Honai Town. The reason for the establishment of the company was that Mr. Masataka Hyodo, who played a central role, was asked by Sadaoki Yano, who was born in Kawanoishi, about the pattern of foreign yarn imports and the promising spinning industry, and was recommended to establish the company. It seems that it was said.

Yawatahama City, Ehime Prefecture is located at the base of the Sadamisaki Peninsula at the western end of Ehime Prefecture, facing Kyushu across the Bungo Channel (Uwa Sea), and is a port town boasting one of the highest landings in Shikoku. Warm climate and terraced field (A field created in a staircase on a slope such as a hillside. It seems to be found in a densely populated area on a flat land. In the case of paddy fields, it is called a terraced rice field.) Setouchi Citrus cultivation that makes the best use of the coastal topography of the sea is flourishing, including branded oranges known throughout the country such as “Hinomaru”, “Maana”, “Kawakami”, “Mitsuru”, and in recent years “Beni Madonna” “Setoka”, “Kanpei”, etc. It is known as the number one citrus kingdom in Japan for citrus production. No, it is a world-famous production area.

【Major features】
Japan's proud Mt. Fuji was designated as a World Cultural Heritage by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, UNESCO in June 2013. The name of Mt. Fuji seems to have been expressed in various ways since ancient times. The most common is “Fujiyama”. It seems to mean the one and only high peak that cannot be compared with others. It seems that it means that there is no end of snow on the top of the mountain all year round, but it seems that there is no snow on Mt. Fuji in the summer. It seems that he may have expressed that he never runs out of size. It is famous for the song “Tagonoura Yu, if you look at it out of the house, it's pure white, and the snow falls on the inexhaustible Takamine” by Yamanobe no Akahito in the Manyoshu. Manyo Song Monument in Fujinokuni Tagonoura Minato Park: A song that overlooks Mt. Fuji, carved into eight stone pillars of Matsuno stone (commonly known as “bale stone”) from Minami Matsuno, Fuji City, and arranged in the shape of Mt. Fuji. The inscription seems to be from the Jingu Bunko Hon Manyoshu (Jingu Bunko collection), which is believed to be a copy of 1546. It seems that the cultural value of the inscription is enhanced by engraving the manuscript Man'yogana as it is. It seems that this monument was erected in 1983 at Tagonoura Harbor Fuji Pier (former ferry terminal) after the place name “Tagonoura”. In 2012, it was relocated to the “Fujinokuni Tagonoura Minato Park” that was maintained by Shizuoka Prefecture at that time, and is now popular with visitors to the park. In addition to this, it seems that the characters “Fushi” and “Fuji” are used in the Manyoshu, but since Man'yogana is a kind of Ateji, it seems that it was only called “Fuji”. “Mt. Fuji” seems to come from the legend of immortality, like the story of Taketori(Princess from the Moon, The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter: The story of the Heian period. One volume. “Genji Story” has “Princess Kaguya Legend” (area overgrown with weeds) and “Taketori's old man” (picture-matching (with card games,etc.)), and is titled “Taketori Old Man Story”. There seems to be a manuscript. The date of establishment and the author are unknown, but it is believed that it was created by male intellectuals between Jogan (859-877) and Engi (901-923) in the first half of the 10th century.). Some people say that the name "Fukujuyama" has become dull, and that the name comes from ”Fujiyama”, but both seem to be letters. Today's writing of “Mt. Fuji” means a mountain rich in samurai, and is thought to be from the Kamakura period when Bushido developed. Regarding the origin of the name, there seems to be a theory that it came from the Ainu word “funchi” (god of fire = volcano) and the Malay word “fuji” (wonderful). It is believed that Mt. Fuji is called “Fuyo; Nelumbo nucifera” because of the shape of the summit crater. The current shape of Mt. Fuji is formed by three generations of volcanic activity: Mt. Ashitaka / Koomitake volcano, Old fuji volcano, and Shinfuji volcano. It seems that Koomitake volcano stopped its activity more than 100,000 years ago. Old fuji Volcano is the volcano that became the foundation of Mt. Fuji today, and is said to have been active from about 100,000 to 10,000 years ago. The activity of New Fuji volcano, which formed the current Mt. Fuji, is said to have started about 10,000 years ago, and it is believed that more than 100 eruptions were repeated during the 10,000 years leading up to the 1707 Hoei eruption. That's it. Around 10 am on December 16, 1707 (Sun history), Mt. Fuji erupted from the southeastern slope, and the eruption smoke rose to 20,000 m above the sky. Traces of this eruption still remain as the “Hoei crater”. The eruption continued intermittently for 16 days until dawn on December 31, and lapilli and ash were carried by the westerly wind and poured into northeastern Shizuoka prefecture, Kanagawa prefecture, Tokyo, and the Boso Peninsula more than 100 km away. It seems. In Subashiri Village (Oyama Town, Shizuoka Prefecture) at the eastern foot of Mt. Fuji, 37 houses were burned down by the hot volcanic rocks that fell, and the remaining 39 houses seemed to have collapsed due to the weight of volcanic ash exceeding 3 m and repeated volcanic earthquakes. In Minasegawa Village (Yamakita Town, Ashigarakami District, Kanagawa Prefecture), I heard that 12 out of 80 villages collapsed due to ash fall of 80 to 90 cm. A large amount of volcanic ash fell on the town of Edo (Tokyo), and it became dark even in the daytime, and it was said that candles had to be lit. It seems that the ash fall that accumulated 2 to 5 cm became fine dust with each strong wind and soared, and many people suffered from respiratory diseases and even suffered from sequelae. The death toll from the eruption has not been recorded, but it took years to remove the volcanic ash that had accumulated on the cultivated land even after the eruption. The river into which the volcanic ash flowed rises, causing frequent flooding, which seems to have afflicted farmers for a long time. The Hoei eruption is called a “Plinian eruption((Italian Vulcanian eruption) An eruption that is more violent than an eruption that feels like an explosion that blows sticky lava fragments far away, and erupts with a height of 10 km or more)”, and when magma is pushed up from an underground magma chamber, the pressure decreases and foams, and a huge amount of volcanic stones, volcanic ash, and volcanic gas are blown out. However, it seems that the magma did not leak. In the past, it seems that magma was leaked in the “Strombolian eruption(An eruption of less sticky basalt and andesite magma splashing from the crater every few seconds to tens of seconds)”. It has not been clarified what kind of pattern the next eruption of Mt. Fuji will be, but in the “Mt. Fuji Volcano Disaster Prevention Map” (hazard map) created in 2004, the area where the crater can occur, the range where lava flows, and the debris flow are shown. It seems that the range of occurrence has been specified. The scale is so large that there are records that a large amount of volcanic ash has accumulated in the town of Edo. The lateral volcano (elevation 2,693m) created at this time is called Mt. Hoei. Mt. Fuji is the standard Mt. Fuji seen from the Shizuoka side, and Mt. Hoei is located on the right shoulder. However, it seems that Mt. Hoei can be seen in front in Susono City, and on the left side in Gotenba City and Oyama Town. By the way, it seems that Mt. Hoei cannot be seen from the northern part of Fujinomiya City or the Yamanashi Prefecture side, which is just west or north of Mt. Fuji. The time when the activity of New-Fuji volcano started corresponds to the early Jomon period, and it seems that human beings lived around Mt. Fuji. The 1707 Hoei eruption is said to have been the last and largest eruption of recorded history. The country of origin of persimmon is China, which is endemic to Southeast Asia. It is reported that it was mainly native to the Yangtze River basin. It is said that the name of the persimmon was already mentioned in the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki, which are said to have been introduced to Japan around the Nara period and were written around this time. It was cultivated in the Heian period and was presented as a Dried persimmon. It has been cultivated in various parts of Japan since ancient times, and its name differs depending on the region, and it seems that it had a very rare influence on the climate and folk culture. In Ehime prefecture, it is said to be the birthplace of “Fujigaki persimmon” and “Hachiya, Minokamo city, Gifu prefecture”, and is called “Hachiyagaki persimmon”. “Fuji Persimmon” was found in 1927 at the farm of “Mr. Saburozaemon Benjo” in Yawatahama, Ehime Prefecture, and a large and fast-colored one was discovered in “Hachiyagaki Persimmon”, and this branch was grafted. I heard that it was propagated. It seems that the distribution of seedlings began the following year. It is a persimmon that has been cultivated since 1928, the year of the enthronement of the Emperor Showa, and is characterized by its divine red color and sweetness. Ehime Prefecture “Ehime / Nanyo Citrus Agricultural System” (Region: Uwajima City, “Yawatahama City”, Seiyo City, Ikata Town, Ainan Town) However, on February 15, 2019, it was certified as a Japanese agricultural heritage. This is a system in which the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries certifies areas (agriculture, forestry and fisheries systems) that operate important and traditional agriculture, forestry and fisheries in Japan. Although it is a certified standard, the agriculture, forestry and fisheries system to be applied for contributes to the food and livelihood security of the local community. Agricultural biodiversity applies The agricultural, forestry and fisheries system is rich in biodiversity and genetic resources that are globally important for food and agriculture. Local traditional knowledge system The local traditional knowledge system provides “regional valuable and traditional knowledge and customs”, “original adaptive technology” and “agricultural, forestry and fisheries industries such as biophasic, land and water”. Maintaining a “supporting natural resource management system”. Culture, values ​​and social organization The cultural identity and climate associated with the agricultural, forestry and fishery system to be applied for are firmly established and belong to the region. Characteristics of landscapes and seascapes, having landscapes and seascapes that have developed over the years through the interaction between humankind and the environment. Resilience to change, In Japan, where there are many natural disasters, many agriculture, forestry and fishery systems have endured natural disasters and responded to changes over the long history. Maintaining high resilience to disasters, etc. in order to preserve the agriculture, forestry and fishery system and pass it on to the next generation. Participation of various actors, participation of various actors as well as local residents in order to maintain and revitalize traditional agriculture, forestry and fisheries and related culture and ecosystem conservation systems in response to the decrease of bearers and social changes Inheriting the agriculture, forestry and fisheries system through a new system by. Promote the Sixth sector, utilize the historical value of the agriculture, forestry and fishery industry system, agriculture, forestry and fishery products, traditional culture, landscape, etc., and revitalize the region by promoting the branding of agricultural products and the promotion of tourism, etc. It is mentioned that the agriculture, forestry and fishery industry system is being preserved. Fuji persimmons are astringent at the time of harvest, are de-astringent processed with alcohol, and are shipped as regional brand persimmons. Compared to other varieties of persimmon, Fuji persimmon has few seeds and few fibers, so you can enjoy a mellow texture and elegant taste, so it is also popular as a gift. It's a method of removing astringency, but it's a good idea to stuff the persimmon calyx and calyx together in the tool. When packing, be careful not to scratch it. After stuffing, sprinkle shochu over the entire surface. Place a newspaper or a different straw on the surface and cover it to absorb the evaporated water. It is recommended to completely seal with adhesive tape. Place in a warm place for about 6 days. Spread the persimmons out in a straw mat and dry them. If the fruits are large or small, it is effective to pack the large ones on the bottom and the small ones on the top. It seems that you can use pharmacy alcohol instead of distilled spirits(Shochu). In this case, 150 cc of 30% alcohol is used per 10 kg of astringent persimmon. When the material is scarce, it seems that you can also use a plastic bag. Put shochu on the calyx of the persimmon, stuff it in a plastic bag, and seal it. Place this bag in a warm place in the sunlight or hang it. Atagogaki, Hagakuregaki, Yokonogaki, etc. are hard to come off, so put a plastic bag (0.1 mm) in the tool and pack the persimmons. Let's explain the origin of special products, though it is simple. ”Yawatahama City”, Ehime Prefecture”, It is located in the western part of the prefecture, at the base of the Cape Sadamisaki Peninsula, with a total area of ​​132.65 km2. The north faces the Seto Inland Sea, and the east is Ozu City. Adjacent to Seiyo City in the south and Ikata Town in the west. The southern half of the west side is for Kyushu across the Bungo Channel (Uwa sea). The coastline forms a rias coastline(A submergent coastline with a complex narrow bay.). Scenic landscape. City flower: Narcissus L. (1753)(Narcissus tazetta bulb), It grows naturally in the mountains throughout the city, and the fragrance and appearance of the flowers symbolize the city. The place name is from the Yoro era (717-724), and it is said that the origin is that Hachiman Ogami(From samurai families nationwide, such as Seiwa Genji and Kanmu Taira, the god of luck (the god of martial arts) “Yumiya Hachiman”) was erected on the beach of this place. The district was based on the delta area of ​​the Senjo River that runs through the center, and reclamation work was already carried out during the Tensho era (1573-1592). Since then, the city has been expanded from sea to sea due to repeated landfills. Goby(Gobioidei)cultivation and shipping industry have been active in the former Honai area since the Edo period. In the Meiji era, commerce and industry such as mining, shipping, and spinning developed under the new government's policy of promoting the breeding industry. “The development of the wholesale market for marine products and the expansion of production of mandarin oranges and other citrus fruits”. After World War II, the fishing industry developed dramatically and is famous as a base for the trawl fishery. After that, while expanding the facility as a connecting port connecting Kyushu and Shikoku, the production of citrus fruits, mainly mandarin oranges, will become the main crop of the city. In the latter half of the 1970s, the fish market facilities in Okishinden were improved and it became a popular marine product distribution base. From 1980, the Nanyo Water Supply Authority started supplying water supply, and the water shortage in summer was alleviated. On March 28, 2005, the former Yawatahama City and the former Honai Town will be added to create a new Yawatahama City. 

It is sweetened by obtaining a manufacturing process that changes tannin from soluble to insoluble by treating it with alcohol such as shochu. The flesh is smooth orange and seems to have few black spots (skibuol) and seeds compared to other persimmons. Tannin (a method that efficiently decomposes into fragments with mercaptoethanol) is a type of polyphenol that is the main component of persimmon astringency, and has antibacterial and antiviral effects that inactivate pathogens such as influenza, norovirus, and O-157. Seems to be considered.

It is a native variety and is also called “Koshu Hyakume Persimmon”. It is a bell-shaped astringent persimmon, and it is a big fruit that weighs more than 500 g. Currently, in Japan, it is the fourth largest persimmon variety in Japan after “Fuyu”, “Hiratanenashi”, and “Wase Tone”, with a 6% share. It is mainly made in Fukushima, Miyagi and Yamanashi prefectures.

The Kunigi / Ujina area is the only area in Japan that produces “Fuji persimmons”. The light of the sun shining down, the light reflected from the beautiful sea, the light reflected from the glaring terraced fields, the light reflected from the maintained garden road, the light that comes from the sweat of effort raised with strong will and passion. A fusion of producers and nature, this product is wonderful.

JA Kochi Prefecture has 12 JAs (JA Tosa Aki, JA Tosa Kami, JA Tosa Reihoku, JA Nankoku City, JA Nagaoka, JA Toochi, JA Kochi Haruno, JA Tosashi, JA Cosmos, JA Tsunoyama, JA Shimanto, JA Kochi Hata) and the federation function were integrated and born on January 1, 2019. Taking advantage of the highly productive, high-quality, warm, rainy and sunny climate in the jurisdiction, horticultural agriculture is being developed mainly in winter and spring vegetables in the plains. In the mountainous areas, horticultural agriculture that takes advantage of the cool weather conditions in summer and unique rice cultivation are being carried out, and agriculture that takes advantage of the characteristics of the region is spreading. In recent years, we have been actively engaged in agriculture that is friendly to humans and the environment, such as pesticide-reducing cultivation using natural enemy insects (those that are higher than those that are lower in the food chain).

Mihara Village, Hata District, Kochi Prefecture, is said to be the farthest from Tokyo in terms of time. Villagers value the connections between people that have been forgotten a little in modern times, do not go against nature, take care of seasonal ingredients, and live in a way that preserves the traditional “food” culture and daily activities. Here is the original scenery of Japan that used to be everywhere. Among them, Tosa inkstone is known all over the country for its good quality, and is called “Tosa Tankei Inkstone” and is gaining high popularity. In 1966, calligrapher Mr. Kenkichi Araya discovered his inkstone gemstone in Shitagiri, Mihara Village, and production began. Made from good quality black slate(Mesozoic Cretaceous Formation about 60 million years ago), it is as highly regarded by calligraphers as Chinese Tankei stone. War of Onin (1467 in the Muromachi period) Emperor's chief advisor Norifusa Ichijo-Ko escaped from the war from Kyoto, and went down to Tosa Kunihata Villa, where the Ichijo family was, and now Tosa Shimanto City (former Nakamura City), Tosa He started the Ichijo family and later built a cultural city called Little Kyoto in Tosa. It is said in the literature that Ichijo, a literary and noble calligrapher, found a good quality inkstone here and used it for a long time. Declining demand is a major challenge for many traditional crafts. Tosa Inkstone in the village is using this issue as a springboard to create new ways of working and living for craftsmen.

【Major features】
Kochi Prefecture is located in the southern part of Shikoku. The Shikoku Mountains are connected to the north, and the fan-shaped terrain facing the Pacific Ocean to the south has a total area of ​​7100 km2, accounting for 38% of the total area of ​​Shikoku. I hear that 84% of the prefecture's land area is occupied by forests, and the proportion of mountainous areas has reached 95%. On the other hand, the average annual temperature is 17.0 degrees Celsius, the annual rainfall is 2548 mm, and the annual sunshine is 2154 hours. Under such location and natural conditions, paddy rice, vegetables, fruits, livestock products, etc. are produced for agriculture, and Kochi Prefecture Agriculture is a facility gardening with high production efficiency that intensively uses narrow cultivated land. It seems that it is the core division of. In addition, ginger, eggplant, garlic, japanese ginger, and shishito pepper occupy the largest share in the whole country, and okra and cucumber also occupy a high share in the whole country. Kochi Prefecture Agricultural Cooperative Hata District Agricultural Economic Center, which has jurisdiction over Sukumo City, Shimanto City, Tosashimizu City, Kuroshio Town, Otsuki Town, and Mihara Village, is relatively active in producing open-field vegetables such as okra and broccoli. It seems to be a region. Regarding the shipment volume of okra in 2018, it seems that Kochi prefecture as a whole accounted for 1113 tons, of which about 40%, 457 tons. Even in the Hata district of Kochi prefecture, the production of okra is active in Sukumo City, and I hear that the producer subcommittee called “JA Kochi Prefecture Hata District Sukumo Subcommittee” is the center of production. Okra is native to the African continent and has been cultivated in Egypt for over 2000 years, and it is said that it entered Japan from the end of the Edo period to the beginning of the Meiji era. It seems that Sukumo City was established as an okra producing area around 1975. Until then, it was mainly paddy rice, but it seems that okra cultivation using paddy fields has begun as a crop that can generate stable profits. The reason is that it was thought to be suitable for warm and humid areas because it is vulnerable to cold and resistant to heat, dryness, and humidification.Initially, it seems that 30-40 households started outdoor cultivation. In 2013, there were 141 producers and the cultivation area reached 14 ha, but recently it has decreased due to the aging of the producers, and in 2018 it is said that the number of producers is 96 and the cultivation area is 9 ha. The main cropping types are house and open field (including tunnel) cultivation, but it seems that open field cultivation accounts for the majority. Sowing is done from February to April, and it seems that it will be harvested in about 70 days. It is said that it continues to ship from house cultivation to open field cultivation, mainly from April to early November. The optimum temperature for germination rate is 25 to 30 degrees Celsius, and it seems that the germination rate tends to decrease as the temperature decreases. The pale yellow flowers bloom(When giving a gift, it has a good meaning as a gift for a loved one.)about 60 days after sowing, and it seems to be harvested about 5 days after the flowers fall. In the hot summer months, the pods seem to grow about 4 cm a day. It is said that they are harvested every day because the fiber develops when the harvest is delayed and the taste is significantly impaired. Especially during the peak season from July to August, I hear that the harvest is done twice in the morning and evening. Therefore, it seems that the shipment volume will increase from July to August, and after September, the shipment volume will decrease as the temperature drops, and the shipment volume will be small in November. I also heard that the plant height at the end of harvest will be about 2 m. In order to ship early in the open field cultivation, it is said that mulching and a water bottle duct (hot water bottle: Originally from China, it seems to have been called “warming pan”. “Shoken 
Journal” (a diary written by Kiko Daishuku, a priest of the Rinzai sect in the middle of the Muromachi period, at Kaieji Temple in Sakai(大坂), where he spent his last years. An article from 1484-86 still exists). From the description of “warming pan” on October 9, 1486, it seems that it was already in Japan at least in the middle of the Muromachi period. Furthermore, it is written that it was imported during the Kamakura period.) are installed in the tunnel to raise the soil temperature, improve the germination rate and promote growth. Since continuous cropping reduces soil fertility and causes pests such as Nekobu nematode(Pratylenchus; penetranscobb's root-lesion nematode, Meloidogyne incognitasouthern(incognita); root-knot nematod), which reduces the yield. Therefore, when cultivating in the same field, paddy rice is cultivated for 3 years and then okra is cultivated to suppress the occurrence of Meloidogyne incognitasouthern. At the same time, it seems that they are trying to maintain the soil fertility. In addition, as an eco-friendly agriculture, producers have devised a cultivation method and are working on a difficult cultivation method called eco-cultivation that does not rely on pesticides as much as possible. JA Kochi Prefecture Hata District The variety shipped within the jurisdiction is “Early Five”. The characteristic of this product is that it has a clear pentagon and the meat quality is soft. From Takii & Co., Ltd., the plant height is medium and low, the internode length is medium and short, and the leaf size is medium and small, which is a relatively compact grass shape, so it seems that it is easy to cultivate in a house as well as in tunnel cultivation and open field cultivation. The pod color is dark green and seems to have excellent color gloss. Since the pods are less bent, it is said to have high marketability. In the case of direct sowing, there is no need to worry about late frost. Then sow. It is recommended to sprinkle 4 to 5 grains in one place and cover the soil to 2 to 3 cm. If the soil temperature in the field cannot be secured sufficiently at the time of sowing, raise seedlings. Sprinkle 4 to 5 grains in a 9 cm plastic pot and cover with soil about 1 cm. The germination is aligned by controlling the soil temperature at about 25 to 30 ° C. When there are about 3 true leaves, it seems better to plant them in the field, being careful not to cut the roots. Sufficient compost is applied in advance and deeply cultivated to create soil with good water retention and drainage. Topdressing should be started when one or two fruits are harvested, and care should be taken not to run out of fertilizer. Over-humidity in the early stages of growth tends to cause poor growth and dieback, and conversely, extreme drying tends to cause core clogging, so management is performed to maintain appropriate humidity. In addition, it is said that after the flowering and pod setting period, irrigation will be carried out as appropriate to maintain the grass vigor. In addition, it is said that it can maintain the yield until the latter half of cultivation and expect high yield because it has strong heat resistance and stamina at the same time as it pods a lot from the low node. In the jurisdiction, it seems that all the fruits are jointly selected to unify the quality. Producers will start harvesting in the field at sunrise, and will put the harvested products in containers and bring them to the fruit sorting plant. After that, the fruit sorters at the fruit sorting plant sort, pack the net with a machine, and stop the top of the net with a paper seal. According to the standard, 6 to 7 L's and 8 M's are packed, and each package weighs 5.6 kg before being delivered to the pre-cooler. We mainly ship M products with a length of 8.5 to 10.5 cm. In addition, the fruit sorting plant seems to be operating from April to November with 30 fruit sorting staff and 24 machines. The shipping volume is 2.6 tons per day on the days when the peak season is high, and the average is 1 ton. It seems that the products are packed and then delivered by truck. The main delivery destinations are Tohoku, Keihin, Chukyo, Hokuriku, Keihanshin, and Chugoku-Shikoku, and I hear that most of them are shipped to Chukyo and Keihanshin. It has been pointed out that the fruit sorting plant used to be a cause of quality deterioration because it had no air-conditioning equipment and had to perform fruit sorting work in the summer when the temperature inside the plant was high. For this reason, the subcommittee is discussing and introducing air conditioning equipment in FY2016, and is working on temperature control so that quality does not deteriorate. “Okra”, a specialty of Kochi prefecture, seems to be classified according to plant height, shape (round pods and seeds, pentagonal species, polygonal species), and pod color and length. There is a large difference in plant height depending on the variety, and some trees grow quite large in the tropics, and some pods have a length of nearly 20 cm. Looking at the main cultivars in Japan, green pentagonal varieties account for the majority, but it seems that there are also native varieties of round pods and red pods at direct sales offices. The optimum temperature for cultivation is as high as 25 to 30 degrees Celsius, and it is a perennial plant in the tropics, but it is an annual plant in Japan. JA Kochi Prefecture's Eastern Open-Air Vegetables Subcommittee has cultivated broccoli and cabbage as back crops for paddy fields. However, because it is a complementary item by producers who mainly grow paddy rice, the shipment volume is small and it is vulnerable to competition with other production areas, and the sales unit price seems to be unstable. Therefore, it seems that it was desired to introduce new promising items to replace them and to make them into production areas. Under these circumstances, he focused on “Chinese broccoli,” which can be cultivated in wet fields, has little competition with other production areas, and is expected to be in demand in the market. It is a kind of Chinese vegetable that is a member of cabbage and broccoli and is also called Chinese broccoli. I heard that the subcommittee started cultivating on a trial basis in 2009, and in 2011, set up the “芥藍; Kairan” department within the subcommittee and started full-scale production. However, since it is a new item, there are many unclear points in terms of cultivation, so the average yield is low and the number of growers seems to have been a problem. It seems that there is a reality that we have been working on securing the target yield by establishing cultivation technology and making “芥藍菜” a production area by expanding the area. In consultation with JA Kochi City, the rice cultivation department in the Kera and Otsu areas was selected as a cultivation promotion target in order to dig up new producers in 2015. In addition, I heard that they used the workshops of each subcommittee to explain the characteristics and outline of cultivation and enlightened them to introduce new products. At the beginning, 6 people showed interest in new planting, so as a result of individual interviews, 4 people started cultivation at 45 a. In order to acquire the skills of new growers at an early stage, we gave priority to on-the-spot guidance, and it seems that fertilizer and irrigation were properly performed and the plants grew smoothly. It seems that the number of producers in 2015 was 15 and the cultivated area expanded to 165 a. Since it is a newly introduced item, it seems that the cultivation management technology adapted to the area has not been established. Therefore, it seems that the appropriate fertilizer management model was formulated by organizing and analyzing past fertilizer management and yield data. In addition, it seems that the planting and harvesting methods were reviewed, and the cultivation calendar was revised and presented. I heard that at cultivation seminars and field study meetings, the level of the entire subcommittee was improved by instructing management methods according to the growth stage as well as basic cultivation techniques. The outbreak of “Plasmodiophora brassicae” reduced the yield, which seems to have been a big problem at that time. It seems that it has been seen in broccoli cultivation, but it was difficult to control it because of soil infectious diseases. Therefore, as new measures, correction of soil pH (degree of acidity and alkalinity) with alkaline materials such as converter slag and “decoy radish” : lump-reduced radish is a resistant variety, so it develops after primary infection (root hair infection). It does not seem to (skin layer infection). Therefore, it is said that it will reduce dormant spores in the soil and lead to suppression of root hair disease. Also, due to the effect of “flusulfamide agent” etc., the decoy effect on the spores sleeping in the soil cannot be expected. However, it seems that a decoy effect can be expected in the fields damaged by Plasmodiophora brassicae, where the bacteria are actively active. I heard that a field demonstration test is being conducted on a control method that reduces the density of pathogens in the field using. As a result, the control effect was confirmed in the interim survey using the test plant, and it is planned to continue the survey in the future. Furthermore, it seems that it is shipped mainly to the Kanto market, where demand is high, but it seems that there are some cases where the freshness is slightly reduced around October at the beginning of harvest. Therefore, it is said that the production subcommittee is working together to maintain quality, such as improving the harvesting / adjusting method, packaging method, and pre-cooling temperature. As for the packaging method mentioned earlier, partial packaging seems to be a patented technology developed by the Kochi Agricultural Technology Center, although the mechanism is not clear from the name alone. It seems that it was developed by its predecessor, Mr. Yoshitaka Suzuki, in cooperation with packaging equipment manufacturers and distributors. As the name implies, it seems to refer to a partially bonded packaging form. It seems that it means to wrap it with a very small gap without sealing it. Fruits and vegetables are constantly breathing, so if they are completely sealed, oxygen will be lost and they will not be able to breathe. On the contrary, it seems that if you are in normal air, you will breathe too much and consume energy. By putting air (oxygen) in a bag to make the inside of the bag low in oxygen and high in carbon dioxide, respiration and production of aging hormones are suppressed. In addition, it is a well-known fact that the rate of decrease in freshness slows down. Therefore, it was known that lowering the oxygen concentration would make it last longer. It seems that the big advantage of partial seal packaging is that it can be realized at low cost. It seems that the main body of the packaging machine is expensive, but since it is possible to realize partial seal packaging just by changing the relatively inexpensive tooth mold, it is possible to introduce it at low cost, and I heard that it was widely adopted by each agricultural cooperative and market in the prefecture. Duplicate, but please forgive me. Freshness preservation technology by partial seal packaging: Developed “partial seal packaging” as a simple and low-cost freshness preservation packaging method. Obtained a patent in 2001 (Patent No. 3259166). A method of adjusting gas permeability by leaving fine voids in the welded part when mechanically packaging fruits and vegetables with a film. By changing the size of the void, it seems that the amount of gas permeated in the bag can be adjusted to a small amount. The inside of the bag becomes hypoxic and high carbon dioxide, the respiratory action of fruits and vegetables is suppressed, and a high freshness-maintaining effect appears. Since this packaging can be carried out simply by replacing the center seal roller of the packaging machine, it seems easy to introduce the technology to the production area. Welsh onions were shipped in Styrofoam containers, but the development of this packaging method has made it possible to ship in cardboard boxes, significantly reducing shipping material costs. I often see them lately. This method has been introduced as a practical technology in the production areas of garlic chives, green onions, and green onions. Also for Chinese Kale introduced this time. Exports of agricultural products are subject to harsher conditions than domestic distribution, so the freshness of agricultural products has declined significantly, and it seems that they are forced to use airmail, which has high transportation costs. At the Kochi Agricultural Technology Center, in the research project “Establishment of super-partial freshness-preserving packaging technology for fruits and vegetables” from 2008 to 2009, freshness-preserving packaging for sea mail, whose transportation cost is 1/10 of that of air mail. Developed the technology. We have improved the partial seal packaging to handle shipping that takes about a week, and have also conducted export tests for net melons, high sugar content tomatoes, garlic chives, green onions, etc. to Taiwan, Malaysia, and Hong Kong. In Japan, there were scenes of encountering high temperatures, but after being delivered to the Leafa container, it remained in a low temperature and high humidity environment of around 3 ° C and 80%, and it was found that it was hardly placed in high temperatures even after arriving in Taiwan. That's right. It seems that the softening inhibitory effect of netmelon and high sugar content tomato, and the green retention effect of garlic and green onion were confirmed. I heard that the handling of luggage was rough by sea, and some cardboard boxes were crushed or torn. In addition to this, the person in charge was in the process of developing freshness-preserving packaging technology for okra, broccoli, brassica flower, asparagus, etc.

Bolting is easy, using young leaves and growing flower stalks, but it is also possible to eat from a young age. Isothiocyanate derived from Brassicaceae does not exist in vegetables as it is, but in the state of tasteless and odorless glucosinolate (mustard oil glycoside) and indole-3-carbinol (C9H9NO) in the cell. Clearly isolated. In addition, since cells are destroyed by eating, they are produced by the action of an enzyme called myrosinase that exists in different places. Since test results have shown that it has anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects, expectations for the prevention of chronic diseases in cruciferous vegetables are increasing.

I hear that the roots are broccoli cultivated on the Mediterranean coast, which has been mutated or improved to its present form. In Japan, Shizuoka was the first to cultivate, and it seems that it is spreading mainly in the Kanto region after that.

Nagasaki Prefecture GAP is the first prefecture in Japan to promote GAP (Agricultural Production Process Management) in order to reduce the environmental load in the agricultural production process, the safety of agricultural products, and the maintenance and promotion of the health of consumers and farmers. ), And also has introduction / management guidelines and inspection styles (check sheets), and embodies the form of agriculture that Nagasaki Prefecture should aim for in accordance with the “Nagasaki Prefecture Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Promotion Ordinance, which is friendly to people and the environment.” Formulated to further promote. Efforts of agricultural workers and government agencies to increase the momentum for GAP initiatives such as expanding exports and developing agricultural human resources.

I heard that the site of the Katashima torpedo launch test site by the sea in Mitsugoe Township was the remains of a military facility opened in 1918, about 103 years ago, and was responsible for the performance inspection of torpedoes. It is said that there are some remains that have already disappeared in Kawatana Town. During the war, the “red brick warehouse” at the site of the Kawatana Navy Arsenal, which had spread throughout Momozugo, was so old that it could not be repaired or relocated, and the town seems to have demolished it in January 2020. The arsenal was opened in October 1942 as a branch factory of the Sasebo Naval Arsenal. The following year, he became independent and mainly manufactured the “Type 91 aviation torpedo” that was also used in the attack on Pearl Harbor. The feelings of the local residents are strong, but the wartime remains in the town are not limited to Kawatana, but are important in the history of Japan. Not only whether the remains will be a tourism resource, but also the perspective of preserving cultural properties must be considered. Because it is a small island country, it is important to step on it so as not to extinguish the lights of traditions and cultures that our predecessors left behind for us. We must never be involved in war again, but I think that a peaceful world is the prosperity of humankind and the way to believe. Hopefully, don't fall into the developing world from developed countries.

【Major features】
Nagasaki Prefecture is located in the westernmost part of the mainland, in the northwestern part of Kyushu. It has a prefecture area of ​​213 km east-west and 307 km north-south. A major topographical feature is that about 80% of the land consists of peninsulas and islands, and the land is rich in undulations, so it seems that the land is scarce. The average annual temperature in the northwestern part of the Shimabara Peninsula, which is the main production area of ​​potatoes, is 15.7 degrees Celsius, and the annual rainfall is 2300 mm. It is an area with a long frost-free period from early April. In addition, many typhoons approach and land, which can cause enormous damage to agricultural products, and it is said that farming is carried out under severe land and weather conditions. In the prefecture, the spring potatoes, which are called “new potatoes” in the market and are shipped from April to June, seem to start harvesting starting from Fukue Island in the Goto Islands. It seems that it will move to the northwestern part of the Shimabara Peninsula and will reach the end in the Iimori district of Isahaya city on the opposite bank. I heard that all of them are cultivated in warm regions facing the sea. It is said that Nagasaki Prefecture's potatoes entered Nagasaki Port from Java (now Indonesia) in 1598 by the Dutch. After that, I heard that it has been cultivated all over the country while being used as a famine crop during several famines. According to records since the beginning of the modern era, about 500 ha was cultivated at the end of the Meiji era, and it seems that the largest area was 2987 ha in 1945 and 8570 hectares in 1954 immediately after the end of the war. However, from the following year, it started to decrease, and it is said that it will be 4000 ha in 2013. Cultivation is divided into five cropping types, mainly in the autumn cropping from September to December and the spring cropping from March to June, which can secure the optimum temperature for growth, resulting in five cropping patterns, and the harvest is in November. It seems to be mid-June of the following year. Autumn cultivation is mainly cultivated on the Shimabara Peninsula, and the shipment volume is about 5,500 tons. Since it is cultivated in the open field, it is easily affected by the drought in autumn, and the yield is small due to the time of the typhoon, so the crop seems to be unstable. Autumn mulch cultivation seems to be cultivated in the warm areas of the Shimabara Peninsula, where the first frost is delayed. The shipment volume is about 4500 tons. Winter tunnel cultivation is mainly cultivated on Fukue Island, and the shipment volume is about 300 tons. Previously, it was actively planted on the Shimabara Peninsula, but it seems that it has shifted from tunnels to non-woven solid coating due to the inability to secure yields for the labor and cost. At the southern tip of the Shimabara Peninsula, which is the main cropping type of the prefecture and is a frost-free area, it seems that the harvest is from late April to mid-June when the rain falls. The shipment volume was about 37,000 tons in 2015. Since the yield is affected by frost damage, it seems that a non-woven solid coating is used as in winter crops in order to secure a stable and early shipment volume. Since it is cultivated twice a year in spring and autumn, unique varieties suitable for double-cropping in warm regions are cultivated. In 1971, the high-yielding and tasty “Dejima” was cultivated in both spring and autumn, and in 1978, the extremely high-yielding “Nishiyutaka(In 1970, at the Nagasaki Prefectural Agriculture and Forestry Center Aino Potato Center, artificial mating of “Dejima” as a mother and father “Chokei No. 65” was carried out (Saikai No.15). In 1978, it was registered as a variety as “Bareisho Norin No.23”. Suitable for warm southwestern regions, excellent in fertility. Expected to grow and harvest in spring and autumn(Since the crops were swollen and the yield was high, the cultivation increased rapidly especially in spring mulching since 1985.)The flesh is pale yellow and the flesh is moist. The leaf color's dark green, which is slightly darker than “Dejima”. The leaflets are a little thick inside and reach a little sparse. 「Plasmodium resistance major gene: Epidemic resistance leading gene」Ralstonia solanacearum(bacterial disease of eggplant: To provide a bacterial wilt disease resistant inducer which contains a compound indicating resistant induction activity against a bacterial wilt disease as an effective component, and a bacterial wilt disease prevention method using the compound. -Patent Office), Bacterial soft rot(soft rot pathogen: To provide a mass production method of seed potato seedlings, capable of preventing rot and soft rot of a rooting zone to increase probability of survival, and mass-producing at one time nondisease seed potato seedlings capable of increasing percentage of rootage when planting. To provide a method for increasing tubers such as calla tubers or the likes, achieved in increasing tubers such as calla tubers or the likes in a warm area such as Japan or the like, by inhibiting generation of soft rot and activities of endotrophic mycorrhiza. -Patent Office)In addition, it is slightly stronger than “Mother: Dejima” and has moderate or higher resistance to tuber rot. Weak to powdery potato common scab (spongospora subterranea, causative strain, 16S rRNA gene (Prokaryote, gene sequence) or 16S rRNA gene to amplify between ITS region (Ribosomal DNA; rDNA; Eukaryote), a novel primer pair, And a method for detecting and identifying the causative strain of potato scab using them.(NEW PRIMER PAIR FOR AMPLIFYING BETWEEN ITS REGIONS FROM 16SrRNA GENE OR 16SrRNA GENE OF POTATO SCAB-CAUSING STRAIN, AND METHOD FOR DETECTING AND IDENTIFYING POTATO SCAB-CAUSING STRAIN WITH THE NEW PRIMER PAIR- Patent Office), From Potato mop-top virus, it is transmitted by tuber brown ring pattern disease. Somewhat weak resistance. However, the field resistance is quite strong. Since there's little dehiscence of potatoes and little breakage of foliage due to the wind, it's widely suitable for the second cropping area in western Japan.)” was cultivated, and it is said that it is now the main variety of round varieties. On the other hand, as soil diseases such as Spongospora subterranea and Pseudomonas solanacearum, and resistant varieties such as Globodera rostochiensis, “Aiyutaka(According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries variety registration, this variety was bred by crossing “Dejima” with “Chokei No. 108”. The potato shape is oval, the skin color is white yellow, and the flesh color is pale yellow. Potato cyst nematode It is a variety suitable for cooking with resistance. The flora is slightly upright, the individual weight type and the number type are slightly individual weight type, the stem length is short, the thickness is medium, the stem color (primary color) is green, the number of branches is slightly small, and the leaf color is The density of green and leaflet is medium, the number of hair mushrooms on the leaves is small, the number of flowers is rare, the flower color (primary color) is reddish purple, the flower color (secondary color) is white, and the distribution is even. The length of the branch is a little short, the depth of the potato set is a little shallow, the length of the potato is a little long, the flatness is weak, the shape is oval, the skin color is white-yellow, the rough skin is slippery, the eyes The depth is extremely shallow, the flesh color is pale yellow, the dormant period is a little short, the dying period is medium, the early hypertrophy is a little fast, the upper potatoes are quite heavy, the number of upper potatoes is medium, and the average weight of one upper potato is a little. Large, slightly sticky to medium flesh, medium resistance to Y mosaic disease, weak resistance to epidemic field, and putative genotype of potato cyst nematode resistance is H1. Compared to “Digima”, it has a shorter stem length, a reddish-purple flower color with white stripes, and a potato cyst nematode resistance putative genotype(Derived from the strain “CPC1673” cultivated in the highlands of South America, “Atlantic”, “Aiyutaka”, “Sayaka”, “Toya”, etc. have the “Rx”1 gene: Potatoes.) of H1, so it is compared with “Nishiyutaka”. Then, it is said that the distinction is recognized by the fact that the flower color is reddish purple and white stripes are included, the rough skin of the epidermis is slippery, and the putative genotype of potato cyst nematode resistance is H1.)” was cultivated in 2002 and “Sanjumaru(The origin of the variety name is that it has three excellent characteristics: “resistant to pests”, “high yield”, and “good appearance”. Announcement of variety registration application in August 2010.)” was cultivated in 2010. May queen is cultivated in spring crops and seems to ship about 8,000 tons from mid-May to June. The annual sales amount varies greatly depending on the year, and it seems that it is an item with large price fluctuations, but the handling volume has remained relatively stable at 40,000 to 50,000 tons in the past 10 years (as of 2015). Seems to be there. This is because more than 80% of the handling volume utilizes ALIC's designated vegetable price stabilization business, so risk management when the market selling price falls functions and reproduction is secured. This seems to be because it greatly contributes to the maintenance of production area and quantity. The shipping period is from November to July, and the main shipping time is from May to June. It seems that the occupancy rate of Nagasaki potatoes in the Tokyo Metropolitan Central Wholesale Market in 2014 was 46% in May and 56% in June, and 72% in May and 82% in June in the Osaka Central Wholesale Market. Nagasaki Prefectural Central Agricultural Cooperative is located in the southern part of Nagasaki Prefecture. It has jurisdiction over 2 cities and 3 towns: Isahaya City, Omura City, Higashisonogi Town, Kawatana Town, and Hasami Town. The climate is mild, with an average annual temperature of 16.3 degrees Celsius, precipitation of 2294 mm, and sunshine hours of 1866 hours. Winters are also relatively warm, with snowfall only once every few years. It is said that various agriculture such as vegetables such as onions, potatoes and strawberries, livestock and fruit trees are being developed in the jurisdiction. Onions in the Isahaya area are cultivated in the Isahaya Plain, including the Isahaya reclamation, from the hills at the foot of the Tara Mountains. JA's Onion Subcommittee produces from ultra-early onions for fruits and vegetables to processed and commercial onions. Seeding begins in mid-September, planting is carried out from November to December, and from late March to June. It seems to ship until the middle of the beginning. It has been cultivated in this area since 1901, more than 100 years ago, and in 1973, it was designated as a designated vegetable production area, and full-scale co-sale shipments began. Since then, he has continued efforts to meet the needs of club members, such as improving the fruit sorting area, and is said to maintain a co-sale rate of almost 100% even now. Looking at the shipping destinations, it seems that the Kansai market such as Kobe, Osaka and Kyoto is 70%, the Chushikoku market such as Hiroshima is 20%, and the Kyushu market such as Fukuoka is 10%. In the subcommittee, the number of producers is decreasing due to the aging of the club members, and it seems that the number of club members, which exceeded 300 in 1998, fell below 200 in 2013. However, during this period, the cultivation area increased from about 70 ha to 90 ha due to labor saving by introducing machines, and the shipment volume exceeded 4000 tons in 2011. In addition, it is said that it has newly worked on the production of processed and commercial onions, and the sales amount exceeded 400 million yen in 2014. Recently, I heard that the number of members in 2016 was 176, the planted area was 108 ha, and the production volume was 3116 tons. It seems that the subcommittee introduced environmentally friendly cultivation technology with the aim of producing safe and secure onions in the wake of the transaction with the co-op that started in 1996. In 2002, we started analysis of residual pesticides. In 2003, he thoroughly recorded the history of pesticide application, and in 2004, he was certified as an environmentally friendly farmer (as recognized by law). Furthermore, since 2010, it is said that it has been working on the acquisition of Nagasaki Prefecture GAP(Good Agricultural Practice)for the purpose of risk management in agricultural work processes and maintenance of producers' health. In addition, since there is an Isahaya Bay reclamation pond, which is a closed water area, and improvement of water quality is an issue, green manure crops such as solgo are cultivated after harvesting onions to prevent soil runoff and conduct soil analysis. It seems that they are working to purify the water quality of the preparation pond by striving for proper fertilization. The subcommittee has been producing early-maturing onions for fruits and vegetables for many years, but the labor was concentrated on planting and harvesting, making it difficult to expand the cultivation area. Therefore, since 2012, since the shipping time is late, the cropping type has been extended, the concentration of labor can be avoided, and the shipping preparation work has been simplified at a fixed price. Since 2014, it is said that it is trying to improve income and stabilize management by expanding the cultivation area by utilizing the processing and commercial vegetable production base strengthening project, which is a public offering project of the Agriculture and Livestock Industries Corporation. In addition, the subcommittees hold general meetings, shipping councils, branch-specific roundtable discussions, production promotion competitions, shipping eye-matching meetings, and fairs, as well as pest control patrols and study meetings for new varieties and fertilizers. , Active activities such as demonstrations of new machines are underway. I explained the actual situation of the agricultural cooperative with reference to the materials, but next I would like to move on to the introduction of the jurisdiction and the area. “Isahaya City, Nagasaki Prefecture”, It is located almost in the center of the prefecture. It faces three seas with different characteristics: the tidal flat Ariake Sea in the east, the inland sea Omura Bay in the west, and the open sea Tachibana Bay in the south. The Honmyo River is the only first-class river in the prefecture that flows through the beautifully towering mountains of the Tatara Mountains and the central part of the city. Downstream of it is a vast reclaimed land, blessed with a rich and diverse natural environment. The Isahaya Plain, formed by reclamation for more than 400 years, is the largest breadbasket in the prefecture. The fertile hills are a specialty of vegetables, strawberries and mandarin oranges. It has an industrial park, which is one of the prefecture's leading industrial clusters, and has the second largest shipment value of manufactured goods in the prefecture. One city and five towns merged on March 1, 2005. We are promoting town development aiming at the realization of “Isahaya, a creative city where humans shine”. It is warm all year round, with little winter snow, and has a good balance of rich nature and transportation access. With a total area of ​​341.79 km2, annual average temperature, about 16.4 ° C, annual precipitation of about 2,329.

In ancient times, the Christian daimyo “Sumitada Omura-Ko” ruled. In the Meiji era, the 46th Infantry Regiment was stationed. The Naval Air Corps was established in the Taisho era. In the Showa period, the 21st Navy Air Factory, which boasts the best in the Orient, was established. During this period, it prospered as a military city. April 1, 1889 : The act of the City, town, and village was carried out. There were eight villages in one town. In 1925, one town and one village merged to form Omura Town. Furthermore, in 1939, Nishi-Omura and Takematsu Village merged with Omura Town. Installed by Navy Air Factory on February 11, 1942 : Five villages merged with Omura Town and the city administration was enforced. After that, in 1963, Mururo Township, Higashisonogi Town, was incorporated and continues to the present day. Then, in May 1975, the world's first Marine Airport was completed. NAGASAKI EXPRESSWAY opened in 1990, and KOBA SMART IC opened in 2018. The Kyushu Shinkansen West Kyushu Route is scheduled to open in 2022. Promote town development that takes advantage of the convenience of transportation access. Omura Boat Race Ground : Established on April 6, 1952 as Japan's first speedboat racecourse. A motorboat race has begun in Omura Bay. There are twenty-four places nationwide, but the city is the birthplace of boat racing. A large-scale vision will be installed in 1996. It is popular as a state-of-the-art leisure facility. Prunus lannesiana ‘Mirabilis’(Nationally designated natural monument), A rare variety of cherry blossoms discovered and named from the village cherry blossoms of Omura Shrine. There are many Sepals and petals, and all flowers are double-flowered. Kuroda five inches carrot(About 6.5 centimeters long)Carrot original species breeding society : Omura City specialty. Japan's only breeding group for the original species organized by Farmers. Around the end of the Taisho Period, Mr. Tadashi KURODA of Kuromaru Town introduced Maruyama-Gosun from Japan Agriculture and Forestry. Nagasaki-Gosun was also cultivated in the same area. Mr. Kuroda and Mr. Yoshida repeat seeding from 1935 to 1945. Then, the Natural Crossing is cultivated by improving the color of the core. In 1973, KURODA Gosun was cultivated in about 50% of the total area of ​​carrot designated production areas nationwide. In 1960, a training group was formed.

The history of Nagasaki Mikan is that in 1780 (Tenmei era), the lord of the Omura feudal lord, Prince Omura Junjin, was the Satsuma feudal clan's “Nagashima Mikan” (Izumi-gun (former)). : Higashimachi) Wenshu Mikan in Nagaogo Town) was cultivated by Mr. Yuiemon Tanaka, Mr. Rinemon Tanaka, and Mr. Tsuguemon Nakamichi in Ikirikimura, Mitsunomatago (currently Tarami Town, Mitsunomatago). listening.(Citrus Unshiu has heard that the seeds brought back from China by the envoy to Tang China began to bear fruit and were found in Kagoshima.)It is said that “Ikiriki-based Citrus unshiu” has been cultivated from the Ikiriki region and has been cultivated, and saplings have been shipped nationwide. In 1876, mandarin oranges were sold by hand in the castle town. In addition, from around 1887, the production area of ​​mandarin oranges was expanded in'Ikiriki Village', and even today, the area is the main production area in Nagasaki Prefecture. From 1961, “Fruit Tree Agriculture Promotion Special Measures Law Enforcement (Cabinet Order No. 145)”, the Nagasaki Prefecture Citrus Promotion Plan was formulated, and the citrus cultivation area increased rapidly throughout the prefecture. Demand for fruit trees in Japan is generally declining and stagnant, and there is a growing tendency for small quantities to be sold as other items and for good quality. Many fruits, including mandarin oranges, are in overproduction. There are increasing demands from other countries to expand imports of fruits and fruit products. In order to achieve sound development, it is necessary to deal with the overproduction trend of fruits.Induce production that responds to trends. Fostering independent fruit tree farmers who can be the core players in the production area. And it is necessary to further strengthen the constitution of fruit tree agriculture. The system for promoting fruit tree agriculture was strengthened(Partial amendment of Law No. 15, July 1, 1985). To the prefectural governor, the then Vice-Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries(After retiring, he will assume the post of chairman of the Norinchukin Bank.). In 1597, Nagasaki was the first onion to land in Japan by a Portuguese ship. The production of early-maturing onions is thriving, and it has a good reputation for its freshness and good taste. I hear that potato was introduced from Jakarta to nagasaki by a Dutch ship in 1598. It boasts the second largest production volume after Hokkaido, and Minamishimabara City is one of the leading production areas in the prefecture. Cultivation started in earnest in the Meiji era, and now it is cultivated based on two crops, spring and autumn, taking advantage of the warm climate. Asparagus officinalis was introduced to Nagasaki as ornamental from the Netherlands during the Edo period. There are spring and summer seasons, and spring asparagus grows slowly over time, so it has a strong sweetness and is rich in minerals and especially vitamin C. Summer asparagus has a beautiful light green color because it grows at a stretch due to the blessings of the daytime sun, and it is soft to the vicinity of the root. I hear that the bright red tomatoes were introduced to Nagasaki from the Netherlands at the end of the 17th century”. City jurisdiction, Kuidetsu, Takematsuhonmachi, Ozato Town, Matsubarahonmachi.

Assuming from the high possibility of large kofun (tumulus) being a tomb of leader (great king) of the time by the chronological order of kofun and others, the following kofun tumulus show there was a sovereignty in this region (present day Sakurai City and Tenri City): Yamato-kofun Tumulus Clusters and Yanagimoto Otsuka Tumulus built at the foot of the Mt.

Sugar content of 11.5 degrees or more: Taking advantage of the warm climate, the inside of the pipe where mandarin oranges with high sugar content are made has a high mulch coverage, and high quality mandarin oranges are produced. The actual situation, “Wase Iwasaki”, was discovered in 1968 by Mr. Denichi Iwasaki of Nakaura Nango (currently Saikai City), Saikai Town, Nishisonogi District, Nagasaki Prefecture, as a sport of “Wase Okitsu” in the field. It is a polar Wase variety. The Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Seedling Law has not yet been confirmed. In the field of Mr. Tsuguo Ozaki of “Sasebo unshu”, Sasebo City, Nagasaki Prefecture, a branch change was confirmed from the 15-year-old tree of “Wase Miyagawa”, and it was discovered in 1975. In 1993, the virus-free: Once infected, plants cannot be excluded from immunity and cannot escape the virus for the rest of their lives. In 1998, it seems that the sale of seedlings to the Mikan production area in Nagasaki Prefecture became popular. The harvest season is expected from late November to early December, and it is a Nakate type, which is about 10 days later than “Wase Miyagawa”. Effects of Sheet-mulching and Rootstock on Flowering in Satsuma Mandarin 'Sasebo Unshiu',In this study, the effects of sheet-mulching and rootstock on expression of Citrus FLOWERING LOCUS T (CiFT), number of flowers, and yield were investigated in satsuma mandarin 'Sasebo Unshiu' grafted on trifoliate orange (Poncirus trifoliata (L.) Raf.) or 'Hiryu' (Flying Dragon) for several years. In the analysis of data from a plural year, rootstock and sheet-mulching had no influence on CiFT expression or the number of flowers. On the other hand, in the analysis of data from a respective single year, significant differences were detected in CiFT expression and the number of flowers in some years. Trees both with and without sheet-mulching tended to flower in alternate years, and the pattern in trees with sheet-mulching were opposite to those without sheet-mulching. In the year when trees with sheet-mulching produced more flowers than the average number, those without sheet-mulching had fewer than the average number of flowers, and vice versa. The alternate bearing index in each tree showed that the annual change in the CiFT mRNA level was significantly greater in trees with than without sheet-mulching. These results suggest that sheet-mulching cultivation makes annual floral induction unstable in 'Sasebo unshiu' although this instability has no effect on the number of flowers or yield.

Vitamin C, which is abundant, can be expected to have the effect of increasing resistance to diseases such as colds. It is widely known that it is involved in immunity because it is abundant in white blood cells and lymphocytes that fight viruses and bacteria that have entered the body. The pigment component β-cryptoxanthin seems to have the effect of promoting antibody production and boosting immunity. Vitamin P (Flavonoid; quercetin(C15H10O7), C28H34O15: polyphenol; Glycotransfer works in cooperation with vitamin C to regulate the permeability of the capillary membrane so that it does not become too permeable.)

I heard that the standard intake of 200g is 2 for mandarin oranges and 1 for apples.

In the production area, we are focusing on making delicious carrots day and night, and the market has also received a good reputation as ”a deep red color that beautifully colors the center.” By selecting varieties that are particular about meat quality, it is attractive for a wide range of uses from conventional raw foods to juices and for its good flavor. Classified as green-yellow vegetables, the amount of β-carotene is extremely high compared to other green-yellow vegetables, and it is an excellent vegetable that is effective in antioxidant action that does not rust inside the body.

“Oirase Akobo Ancient burial mound” has opened as a guidance facility for the national historic site “Akobo cluster of tumulus tombs”. In addition to exhibiting items excavated from the Akobo Kofun group, it seems that they are also conducting regular seasonal exhibitions and hands-on learning of making magatama and pottery. There is also a history exhibition room on the second floor that doubles as a resting space. Furthermore, on the second floor, you can see Hayabusa running on the Tohoku Shinkansen from the window, and it is said that coffee is also sold by yourself. The facility is free to enter except for the exhibition room, so the epidemic has improved a little, so why don't I visit it once?

Own farm (JGAP fruits and vegetables 2016: certification number 020000029, expiration date June 15, 2022, radish, carrot, potato, yam, burdock, pumpkin (see Japan GAP Foundation)): Japan Good Agricultural Practice It is translated as “good agricultural practice” and “agricultural production process management” by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries. Various rules have been established for the safe and secure cultivation of agricultural products and the safety of producers. There is also an item related to environmental protection, aiming for sustainable agricultural management in the future. One of the characteristics of JGAP is that it clearly describes human rights in the working environment. Specifically, labor standards are set, but if there are workers, the employment contract (labor rules) states the period of the labor contract, the place of employment, the work content, the start / end time, the wage determination, etc. It seems certain. This area is the same as a general company, but as mentioned above, it can be a very new way of thinking in Japan, where there are many family-owned businesses and many employees also have part-time employment during the harvest season. There are always employees, and some farms set these from the beginning and prepare contracts, but it seems that it is necessary to prepare these when acquiring JGAP. It seems that the guidelines clearly state that if overtime occurs, it is within the scope of the 36 (Saburoku) agreement. In addition, when hiring foreign workers, the contract is created in a language that the workers can understand, and the contents that lead to the prevention of unfair employment of foreign trainees, which has been a problem in the past, are also described. Has been done. At the end of March 2017, a standard was established as the Japanese version of the Livestock GAP with the aim of expanding exports of Japanese livestock products. The JGAP livestock and livestock product standards have been developed and published by the Japan GAP Foundation. It is announced as a certified farm on the website of the Japan GAP Foundation. Wild ancestral species of ginseng are widely distributed in Afghanistan, Central Asia and the Caucasus region. It seems that the Himalayan Hindu Kushi foothills area of ​​Afghanistan, which has abundant morphology and genetic variation that closely resembles the cultivation type, is presumed to be the place of origin where the cultivation type was established. It seems that cultivated Afghan strains have spread to the west and east from this area. To the west, it was transmitted to Turkey in the 10th to 11th centuries, and in the southwestern part of Anatolia, a new European descent was established from the progeny of the hybrid by crossing the Afghan system with a subspecies native to the Mediterranean region to Iran. After that, European descent spread to Spain in the 12th century, northwestern Europe in the 14th century, and England in the 16th century. Today, the varieties cultivated worldwide are mainly orange short varieties, but until the 16th century, varieties were purple or yellow long-rooted varieties, and purple varieties seemed to be universal. However, when purple seeds are used as ingredients for soup, they are not preferred because they turn purple-brown, and yellow seeds are the main ingredients. Seeds have become popular. Propagation to the east entered North China via Yunnan in the early part of the former era in China, and spread throughout China, establishing an oriental system. It seems that he entered Japan from China during the Muromachi period. As an aside, regarding ginseng, Japan and Joseon are geographically close to each other, and it seems that it was around that time that the mysterious ginseng, a mysterious remedy, came to Japan. It seems that the first record is that in 739, King Wen of Bohai gave 30 loaves of ginseng to Emperor Shomu in the heat of the heat. After that, it seems that ginseng was almost continuously donated to Japan from the Korean Peninsula. During the Ashikaga period, the Korean delegation who came to the Muromachi Shogunate brought ginseng as a “diplomatic gift”, and I heard that Japan rewarded it with silver as a “diplomatic gift”. Throughout its long history, ginseng came to Japan from the Korean Peninsula as a gift and trade item, but cultivation began in the Tokugawa era and the era of 8s Shogun Yoshimune-Ko. It seems that he succeeded in cultivating ginseng for the first time in 1729. Returning to the story, in detail, it seems that oriental ginseng was introduced to China around the 13th century. It came to Japan in the early 16th century Edo period. However, even before the introduction of oriental ginseng to Japan, there was a ginseng that was used as a medicinal plant for nutritional tonics in Japan. That is this ginseng (so-called ginseng). Ginseng is a perennial plant of the Araliaceae family and is different from the Umbelliferae carrot. However, it seems that the oriental ginseng was named “Oenanthe
carrot” to distinguish it from this ginseng. When 8s Shogun Yoshimune planted vegetable seeds collected from all over the country and made a prototype, an excellent carrot variety was found, and it seems that he began to cultivate it near Takinogawa, Kita Ward. That is the Edo specialty “Takinogawa carrot”. The length is 1m, and it has a reddish-red color peculiar to the oriental species. It is a famous story that Western ginseng crossed the sea from Europe to Nagasaki at the end of the Edo period. In the Meiji era, more varieties of Western ginseng were introduced. Although oriental ginseng is a good variety, it has the disadvantage of being difficult to cultivate (because long-rooted varieties take time to cultivate and handle after harvesting), western ginseng has become the mainstream in Japan since the 1955s. Seems to be there. Regarding the mainstream cultivation method, carrots are not good at acidic soil, so it is necessary to sprinkle lime on the fields to weaken the acidity. At that time, sprinkle fertilizer together and let the fields lie. It seems that it is good to remove the stones in the soil so that the carrots will grow straight. Sprinkle several seeds in one place. Leave about 10 cm between stump and stump. The seeds like the sunlight, so the soil is shallow. When the fields are dry, water them. Thin out when the number of true leaves is 4-5. Thin out the ones that grow poorly and the ones that grow too well, and do something in the middle. It seems that if it grows too well, the roots may split into two or three. In recent years, the shipment volume of carrots in Aomori Prefecture is the fourth largest in Japan. It is soft and sweet, and has a good reputation for good preservation. Probably because of the blessed climate, cultivation methods and techniques that producers can do. Shipments peaked in July, before shipments from Hokkaido began in earnest, and carrots from Aomori Prefecture are enthusiastic at the Osaka Municipal Central Wholesale Market and the Nagoya Central Wholesale Market. Introducing the former office of Kawacho Co., Ltd. I remember mentioning it before. “Misawa City”, Aomori Prefecture is a treasure trove of Jomon culture, and many archaeological sites have been discovered in the city. The Noguchi shell mound and Waseda shell mound around Lake Ogawara are particularly famous, and the pottery from the late Jomon period excavated from Noguchi is said to be as elaborate as the Kamegaoka site in Kizukuri Town, Nishitsugaru District, and is a valuable research material. The Misawa City Museum of History and Folklore has a large collection of a wide range of historical materials such as these archaeological materials, fishing gear, kagura masks of folk performing arts, and ancient documents. In addition, rare animal and plant specimens of Lake Ogawara are also exhibited, and it is a mysterious place where you can experience the traditional life and environment in this place rich in nature. During the feudal era, the largest ranch “Kizaki no Maki” of the Nanbu Morioka domain was spread, and even after the Meiji era, it was taken over by the Sabishirotai shared ranch and the village ranch, and has long been widely known as a horse-producing area. Even now, in the suburbs, you can still see the scenery of horses and cows grazing, and you can remember those days. 淋代平; Miss Veedol: 1931 Mr. Herndon and Mr. Pangbourne's starting point for a non-landing transpacific flight. In addition, the population of Misawa Airport (base), which was built by the Japanese Navy before the Pacific War, has increased sharply due to the requisition and expansion of the US military after the war. It has developed as a city full of exoticism. As a city with a reserve of Jomon archaeological sites, a vast ranch site, an airport, and a fishing port built on a sandy beach, which is rare in Japan, the city will continue to have a diverse face and history with local residents. Due to the cool climate, rare alpine plants such as Buckbean, Daylily, and Drosera rotundifolia L. can be seen even on flat ground. Surrounded by the Pacific Ocean in the east and Lake Ogawara in the west, it has a varied natural environment such as forests, plateaus, grasslands, paddy fields, tidal flats, lakes and coasts. The Phragmites australis grassland, which stretches about 20 minutes north of the city center by car, is a treasure trove of nature and a wetland registered under the Ramsar Convention, Hotoke Swamp. The registration date is November 8, 2005, and it is famous as a low-rise marsh: Nationally Designated Buddhist Wildlife Sanctuary Buddhist Swamp Special Protection Area. Located in the north, a grassland wetland between the Pacific Ocean on the east and Lake Ogawara on the west. Due to the cold winds of the easterly wind “Yamase” from spring to summer and the monsoon “Hakkoda grated” from autumn to winter, this area is flat but has alpine plant communities and both the southern and northern limits. Animals and plants can be seen. In addition, it plays a major role as a breeding ground for rare birds such as the Japanese Marsh Warbler and Ochre-rumped bunting, which are designated as endangered species, as well as a landing site for migratory birds such as waterfowl. Rare wild birds such as the Yellow rail and the Japanese endangered Eastern marsh harrier inhabit, such as cancers, ducks, yellow rails, and dianthus superbus L. You can also see wildflowers such as var. Superbus, Achillea alpina subsp. Japonica, and Scutellaria strigillosa var. Yezoensis, which are visited by many people who enjoy nature. The city is known as a good point for surfing, with its Pacific coastal waves and sandy beaches. Around Lake Ogawara, a citizen's forest park has been developed, where you can enjoy your leisure time with the blue sky and lush nature, and your feelings will be refreshed. There are auto campsites and bungalows on the shores of the lake where the gentle waves come, and when you walk along the promenade that goes around, you can hear the birds singing in the clear air. At baseball stadiums and tennis courts, you can sweat refreshingly and wash your feelings. What comes to my mind is the 51st National High School Baseball Championship Final, in which Aomori Prefectural Misawa High School participated and won, and on August 18, 1969, the moving game and suspicion judgment from the next day. Regarding suspicions, the rules do not stipulate the relationship between the university of origin and seniors and juniors. It's all about this. No matter how the times pass, everyone has a feeling. Indeed, it connects with the present age. The first decision is to clear the suspicion, but it cannot be established without each reason. I think that if you don't always break through, you can't move on.
