ふるさとは はやなくらめと ほととぎす 奈良にはまだき おとづれもせず わたつみの 魚より奈良には めづらしき 山ほとときす いつか聞らむ これにてはまじめ過て 母上の御笑にもならじと 江戸よりは 酒も豆腐もよけれども 三里行かねば なきほととぎす: 寧府紀事 川路聖謨; A man who puts loyalty to the Tokugawa Shogunate on the backbone of his spirit and continues to be open to foreign affairs. On March 15, 1868, he believed in the rumor of the fall of Edo and finished the manner of harakiri, and committed suicide with a pistol. “Bracken is hungry for the old people, even if he disobeys the heavenly god.”

Nanto Seed Co., Ltd. has consistently improved and bred vegetables since the middle of the Meiji era. At this very moment, Nantes farm staff seem to be growing tomorrow's Nantes branded vegetables on these two farms to meet the needs of customers one step ahead of the times. The corporate philosophy is that everything is for Japanese agriculture and everything is for the Japanese dining table.

The thickness of the seed shell is also very thin, so even if you chew the seed, it has a soft chocolate chip-like texture and no unpleasant bitterness. Furthermore, compared to the conventional Small ball watermelon, it has excellent sweetness and texture, and is on sale as a talented material with extremely high potential as a new fruit. In the consumption of watermelon, the existence of seeds often becomes a “disliked person” that interferes with eating, especially for women and children, and the fact is that there are many situations where purchasing and consumption are avoided due to seeds. So, the consumption trend was declining. Again, the seed size of both the seeds in the fruit and the seeds sown is about one-fourth that of normal watermelon. It is a size that most people do not mind even if they eat the whole seed. The initial growth is rather slow and the vines are thin, but there is little decrease in grass vigor after fruit set, and it is extremely easy to maintain grass vigor. It seems that the fruit set after the second fruit is also extremely smooth. It seems that pollen generation is good even at low temperatures and the fruit set is excellent. A high-spherical small watermelon with medium-thick stripes on a bright green outer skin. I hear that the fruits tend to be smaller than the general Small ball watermelon varieties. The flesh color is dark pink and the sugar content is not much different from that of the “Manamusume” type, but the flesh is hard and the texture is unprecedented. The flesh around the seeds is also less likely to deteriorate, so it seems to have better shelf life than ordinary watermelons. It seems that it can be cultivated in a wide range of crops, but it is said that it is most suitable for harvesting from April to July in an unheated house and from June to September in an open-air tunnel. In Japan, in the Meiji era, varieties such as “ice cream”, “mountain sweet”, and “rattle snake” were introduced from the United States as a seedling introduction business, “sweet Siberian” from Russia at the end of the Meiji era, and China in the Taisho era. It seems that “Kaho” was introduced from the United States and “Kanro” was introduced from the United States and was indigenous. Natural mating and selection were repeated in a simple manner, and the materials that became the ancestors of watermelon breeding in Japan have been cultivated. Especially in Nara prefecture, it seems that highly commercial “Gonji” and “ice cream” were cultivated widely as they adapted to the climate of Nara. And “Yamato” was born in these natural crosses. In 1923, the Nara Prefectural Agricultural Experiment Station systematically started a watermelon breeding project. It collects natural hybrids such as “Gonji” and “ice cream” that are native to Nara prefecture from 24 places in the prefecture, selects excellent ones, and selects pure ones. In 1926, “Yamato 2”, It is said that “Yamato No. 3” and “Yamato No. 4” were cultivated and laid the foundation for modern watermelon varieties. Furthermore, in 1928, I heard that “New Yamato”, a one-generation mating combination of “Yamato 3” and “Kanro”, was cultivated. However, since it takes time to collect F1 varieties, watermelon varieties as fixed varieties are required, and from the progeny of the F1 hybrid “New Yamato”, “New Yamato 1”, “New Yamato 2”, “New Yamato 3” and “Asahi Yamato” were cultivated. I heard that the Chiba Prefectural Agricultural Experiment Station started breeding in 1924 even in Chiba, where the field plateau was wide and watermelons were popular from early on. First, it is said that “Chiba No. 1” was separated from “Yamato” and cross-breeding with “honeydew” was carried out. Since 1931, we have succeeded in cultivating the so-called “Miyako” varieties of “Miyako No. 1,” “Miyako No. 2,” and “Miyako No. 3”. It seems to have become the basis of modern varieties in the Kanto region. Last but not least, Pino Girl has a thin hypocotyl, so it seems difficult to call when grafting. We recommend inserting and joining. It seems better to sow the scion about 3 days earlier than usual. Since the grass does not easily lose its vigor even after fruit set, it seems better to set fruit on one more fruit or all vines than usual in pruning cultivation. The use of stressed rootstocks (such as Hekotaren) in the April-May harvest may result in hollow fruit, so it seems better to use a gentle rootstock. As a characteristic of the microseed type, it seems that the fruit shape may look slightly triangular when viewed from above in the low temperature period. It seems that it is often seen especially in the case of low temperature and stress.

Nanto Seed Co., Ltd. has spent 16 years improving varieties, and the seeds are small, so you can eat them as they are. It is a fruity vegetable with an attractive sweetness and crisp, refreshing texture. It came to Japan from China in 1624-1643, entered the Meiji era, and has a history and history of introducing many varieties from Europe and the United States. It is rich in a component called “L-citrulline; C6H13N3O3” that helps improve blood flow. Seeds are also very high in linoleic acid; C18H32O2 and protein, high in B vitamins and E

The Takeuchi family's words or hearts permeate the desire to feel free to enjoy the unique flavor with a fresh and refreshing scent and a slight bitterness. Japanese Butterbur Simmered in Soy Sauce is also available in Makunouchi bento lunch box, etc. A familiar dish. Not limited to Japanese food, it seems that it is also recommended to make stir-fried food with meat and marinade with sour taste. With cultivation techniques, you can enjoy the taste of spring quickly and for a long period of time. I think that it is a real feeling as a consumer and a proof that we can eat and connect with a wide variety at the daily dining table. May Chita's Japanese butterbur be delivered to many people!

After harvesting, old strains are plowed in to make soil, and virus-free strains propagated by JA are planted as seed strains. When the seeds are refrigerated for about two months and then planted in the summer, the butterbur grows with the illusion that it has changed from winter to spring, and it seems that it can be harvested from controlled cultivation in autumn. After harvesting the autumn butterbur, the spring butterbur can be harvested from February by forcing cultivation that keeps it warm in a plastic greenhouse after exposing it to the cold and makes you feel early spring. It is said that it has achieved long-term shipment until May by combining controlled cultivation and forcing cultivation. Traditional vegetables, which herald the arrival of spring, are one of the few edible plants native to Japan that grow naturally throughout Japan and have been popular as wild plants. Boyfriends and girlfriends (male and female) are still loved.

【Major features】
JA Aichi Keizairen's efforts to optimize fruit and vegetable distribution are said to have begun in 2019 at the Ichichita Agricultural Cooperative. It seems to be a wide-area agricultural cooperative with 16,000 regular members, whose jurisdiction is 5 cities and 5 towns on the Chita Peninsula. The main fruits and vegetables are butterbur, onions, cabbage, eggplants, figs and mandarins, and it seems that many items are produced. In recent years, the production of fruits and vegetables has been gradually decreasing due to the aging of farmers, and the shipment of fruits and vegetables in 2019 was 10,859 tons, which seems to have decreased by 35% from 2010. This is also the background behind the need for optimization of fruit and vegetable distribution. There is a distance of nearly 40 km from the base of the Chita Peninsula to the tip, and before the merger, each former agricultural cooperative had a collection point, so it seems that it still has 16 collection points. One of the important issues in optimizing the distribution of fruits and vegetables was the review of the collection and shipping system, including the consolidation of collection points. Table As of the end of 2019, a total of 17 items were collected, 7 of which were collected at multiple collection points, and cabbage was collected at 5 collection points. Looking at each collection point, I heard that there are collection points such as Utsumi and Taketoyo that have only one item and a small quantity. Many trucks appear to be picking up multiple items from multiple pick-up points. It seems that there are many trucks that collect 8 items from 5 locations. However, looking at the load capacity of each truck, it seems that none of them have reached full capacity. In addition, it seems that there were some cases where the staying time at the collection point where multiple items were collected was as long as 2 hours. It seems that some trucks that go around many collection points spend more than five hours just to finish the collection. It seems that there were many issues to be solved in order to realize efficient truck operation. It seems that the transportation of fruits and vegetables was carried out by three transportation companies. It seems that these three companies were taken over by JA Aichi Chita, who had a contract with each of the former single cooperatives before the integration. Therefore, even now, the collection point in charge of each trader is decided based on the range of the former single cooperative, and it seems that the coordination and adjustment of luggage beyond that range is not done. I heard that if adjustments can be made between carriers, effects such as an improvement in the loading rate can be expected. In addition, among the fruits and vegetables shipped from JA Aichi Chita, there are those that are distributed independently and those that are distributed by JA Aichi Keizairen. It doesn't seem to be. It seems that it is thought that if unified measures and adjustments can be realized in this respect as well, it will lead to improved distribution efficiency. It seems that it is difficult to make an operation plan for a pickup truck that matches the actual shipment quantity because it is not possible to accurately grasp the shipment quantity in advance. Previously, it was not possible to fully grasp the planned shipping quantity in advance, but now it seems that each collection point reports the planned shipping quantity the day before and prepares a vehicle allocation plan based on it. However, at present, there are cases where there is a discrepancy between the planned shipping quantity and the actual shipping quantity. I hear that improving the accuracy of grasping the planned shipment quantity in advance is an indispensable issue in making an appropriate vehicle allocation plan. Furthermore, it seems that problems in cargo handling and transportation are also raised for each individual item. In the case of butterbur, the pick-up time seems to be limited because the producers bring what they bring to the pick-up area and load it directly onto the truck. For onions, it seems that extra loading personnel will be required if cardboard boxes and net items are mixedly loaded. In cucumbers, it is difficult to sort by class, items, and order. Furthermore, it seems that it is pointed out that it is not possible to grasp the shipping quantity in advance for items with a large shipping quantity, and that for items with a small shipping quantity, it is necessary to go to pick up for that purpose. In order to improve and improve the efficiency of vegetable distribution, it seems essential to understand the overall picture of the distribution system of the target item and the characteristics of production and distribution of the item behind it. Here, I would like to take up the main item, butterbur, and learn from each other. Of the 9300 tons of butterbur in Japan in 2019, 3630 tons, 39%, seems to be harvested in Aichi prefecture. It is a well-known fact that more than 80% of the butterbur sales of JA Aichi Keizai Ren belong to JA Aichi Chita, and it is the number one Japanese butterbur producing area in Japan. Most of JA Aichi Chita's fruits and vegetables are shipped to the Chukyo area, mainly in Aichi prefecture, but butterbur is the number one producer in Japan, and most of it is shipped to the Tokyo metropolitan area and Kinki area, and is shipped over a wide area. Seems to be. It seems that there are two types of cropping, one is seasonal extension and the other is forcible cultivation. It seems that the shipping time for seasonal cultivation is from October to January, and the shipping time for forcing cultivation is from February to May. The number of butterbur producers in 2019 was 61, a decrease of 46% compared to 2008. It seems that the cultivated area and the shipping quantity are decreasing as the number of producers decreases. The cultivated area in 2019 is 38.7 hectares, a decrease of 46% from 2008, and the shipment volume is 1734 tons, which is a decrease of 59% from 2008. The production of butterbur is labor-intensive, it is difficult to expand the scale of producers, and it seems that the decrease in the number of producers directly leads to the decrease in production. In particular, harvesting and shipping preparation are at the peak of labor, and reducing the labor burden on producers in shipping preparation work seems to be a major issue in maintaining wiping production. There are some sad points when I know the reality, but I would like to continue to introduce the representative products of Japan instead of the farmers who grow them with conviction. It is best to check with JA for details on the flow from harvesting butterbur to shipping preparation, collection, and shipping. It seems that the harvest will be done by about 10 o'clock in the morning. After that, it seems that the shipment will be prepared by taking it back to the producer's workplace. Shipment preparation work is a laborious task, and it seems that large producers are introducing an employment labor force. For shipping preparation, it seems that the stems are first trimmed and the same class is selected. After that, it will be wrapped in plastic wrap for each standard. Employment labor has been introduced in this wrapping work, but it requires skill, and it seems that it is becoming difficult to secure the personnel these days. Therefore, it seems that it is promoting the introduction of bagging (jet pack; Automatic bag opening machine. Or a machine that saves labor in bagging leafy vegetables) as a new packaging method that requires less labor and skill than wrap packaging. It seems that each producer will bring it to the collection point in the morning of the day after the harvest. It seems that the collection time is different for each collection point. The shipping trucks go around multiple collection points to collect the goods, and it seems that the collection time of the trucks at each collection point is adjusted. It seems that the collection time of the Tokai collection point, which has the largest number of butterbur, is 10:50 to 11:15, and the collection time of the “Okada” collection point, which has the second largest number of producers, is 11:30 to 12:00. Furthermore, it seems that the quantity of butterbur brought to the collection point is first checked and inspected by the person in charge of the agricultural cooperative. After inspection, it will be loaded onto the waiting truck. Producers seem to lay their own trucks loaded with butterbur on the designated trucks and transship them directly. It seems that such a loading work method is one of the problems in improving distribution efficiency. First of all, I heard that the truck must wait at the collection point and wait for the producer's truck during the set pickup time because it is loaded directly from the producer's truck. Since butterbur is loaded by producer, not by shipping standard, it is difficult to organize and load by shipping standard, it takes time and effort, and loading efficiency seems to drop. In addition, palletization(A method of loading cargo on a pallet, loading it into a transportation facility as it is, transporting it, and unloading it. A pallet is a “duckboard” -like platform used for the transportation, storage, and transshipment of cargo.)is an issue for improving the efficiency of cargo handling throughout logistics, but it is said that palletization at the collection point stage is difficult. It is desirable to switch to a method in which the butterbur that the producers bring in is once unloaded at the collection point, sorted according to shipping standards, and then loaded onto trucks, but the layout of the collection point has become compatible with palletization. I have heard that it is not easy to implement without redevelopment on the hardware side of the collection point. Some of the trucks that picked up butterbur at the Tokai pick-up point will go to the Okada pick-up point to pick up the butterbur. It seems that the number of butterbur that gathers at the Okada collection point is not large, but it seems that multiple trucks are collecting at Okada because the trucks are sorted by shipping area. It seems that the challenge is to establish a collection base, collect cargo from a collection site with only a small amount of cargo with a single truck, and transship at the collection base according to the shipping area. It seems that there are 29 issues that were taken up by JA Aichi Chita in 2019 at the advance collection point and by item. The contents seem to be summarized in the review of the collection and shipping system and the review and consolidation of sales destinations. Except for reviewing and consolidating sales destinations, it seems to be an issue related to collection from producers. The specific contents seem to be collecting the planned shipment quantity in advance, loading the truck directly into the pallet at the collection point, and adjusting the collection time between items. It seems that systematic efforts from production areas to consumption areas are necessary to improve the efficiency of vegetable distribution. It seems that they are starting with an easy-to-start task for stakeholders and carriers in the production area. Looking at the number of initiatives by initiative, the largest number was the review of the shipping system, with 12 items, followed by the review and consolidation of sales destinations, with 10 issues. On the other hand, it seems that there are only two items related to butterbur in the review of the shipping location. I heard that the items for reviewing the shipping system include grasping the planned shipping quantity in advance and consolidating the shipping days for items with a small shipping quantity. In reviewing and consolidating sales destinations, it seems that the shipping market is being consolidated and the freight system is set according to the shipping destination. In the efforts for fiscal 2019, there are some items for which specific countermeasures have been put into practice, such as reporting the planned shipment quantity of eggplants and cucumbers in advance, and consolidating the collection days of cabbage. It seems that many of them were in the process of being considered for conversion. It seems that there were many related parties such as producers and transporters who had to make adjustments even for items related to the collection and shipping system of the production area. Also, it seems that it is not easy to reach a solution that can reach a general consensus in a short period of time. Even if it is a short-term issue related to the agricultural cooperative level collection and shipping system, it seems that there are many issues that need to be tackled carefully in cooperation with the people involved in the field. JA Aichi Keizai Ren has achieved some results with regard to JA Aichi Chita's efforts in fiscal 2019, but considered that the areas of efforts and transporters were limited, and considered cooperation with the Chita area and Nishi-Mikawa area. Seems to be summarizing the need. On top of that, it seems that the two points of priority efforts in FY2020, transportation cooperation that relaxes the areas and items by existing transportation companies, and implementation of centralized vehicle allocation by collecting information are listed. We have set three goals within the fiscal year: establishing a method that can centrally aggregate shipping information, establishing a collaborative system that relaxes the existing areas of the three jurisdiction transportation companies, creating a mechanism that enables collaborative transportation, and establishing rules. It seems that he was doing it. In vegetable distribution, the starting point is the producer, the ending point is the actual consumer or the consumer, and optimization from the starting point to the ending point is an issue. Even if efficiency can be achieved in one part of the logistics process, if it increases the burden on other parts, it is possible that the efficiency of logistics as a whole has not progressed. Moreover, even if the logistics as a whole are optimized, the effects may not be evenly distributed to all parties concerned, and it seems that there may be an imbalance in the distribution of benefits and burdens. If left unchecked, it seems difficult for the system to be widely accepted. I have always heard that optimizing logistics as a whole and adjusting and optimizing the benefits and burdens among the parties involved in logistics are also important issues in improving the efficiency of fruit and vegetable logistics. JA Aichi Keizairen's challenges in optimizing the distribution of fruits and vegetables seem to be wide-ranging, such as proper vehicle allocation based on advance shipping plans, consolidation of collection points, and establishment and utilization of regional distribution bases. Consistent palletization, joint transportation, modal shift, etc. come to mind first in efforts to improve the efficiency of vegetable distribution, but it is known that there are various other issues as well. In addition, in the distribution of fruits and vegetables, the number of producers, which is the starting point, is large, and many of them are small-scale, which is a major feature, which seems to be a factor that makes efficiency improvement difficult. We have heard from everyone that making the flow of goods and information from producers lead to the subsequent improvement of distribution efficiency is the first issue for improving distribution efficiency. For that purpose, the understanding and cooperation of producers are indispensable. At present, the aging and declining number of producers is advancing, and it is certain that producers are also in a difficult situation. Especially in vegetable production, it seems that there are many items in which harvesting and shipping preparation form a large labor peak. In order to improve the efficiency of vegetable distribution, it seems that it is important to reduce the burden of shipping preparation for producers in order to gain their understanding and cooperation. In the past, in order to improve the efficiency of vegetable distribution, it seems that issues and countermeasures were often considered with a large-scale single-item production area in a remote area in mind. Improving distribution efficiency is an unavoidable issue not only in remote production areas but also in intermediate and suburban production areas, but it seems that the issues faced and countermeasures differ depending on the actual conditions of the production areas. Even in Aichi Prefecture, there is a big difference between the nationwide production areas of cabbage and broccoli in the Higashi Mikawa area and JA Aichi Chita, and I hear that it is difficult to improve distribution efficiency with uniform measures. Furthermore, I would like to move on. JA Aichi Chita (Agris) has established the “Agricultural and Livestock Product Safety and Security Measures Headquarters” to respond to consumers' preference for safety and security for agricultural and livestock products. Carry out daily work. It seems that they are working together with the producers on safety. It seems that it has created cultivation standards for agricultural and livestock products sold through JA and agricultural and livestock products handled at JA direct sales offices, and requires all producers to keep a production diary. It is said that the person in charge is instructing and inspecting the sowing time, the type of pesticide, the time and frequency of spraying, the establishment of traceability (tracking of production history), and so on. In addition, for agricultural products, we are also working to supply safe agricultural and livestock products by planning, practicing, inspecting, and reviewing agricultural work, and to introduce agricultural production process management (GAP) methods that lead to cost reduction and quality improvement. It seems that he is pouring. JA Aichi Chita Food Safety Analysis Center is conducting self-inspection mainly by immunoassay (simple analysis), strengthening cooperation with Keizairen ASC, and conducting pesticide residue inspection quickly and surely. This test mainly targets more than 50 types of co-selected co-sold items such as butterbur, onions, cabbage, figs, and oranges shipped to the market, and agricultural products sold at JA's direct production stores, and about 500 samples are tested annually. It seems that it has been done. The inspection method seems to be to randomly take samples from the field just before harvesting for each item and inspect for residual pesticides. In the unlikely event that an analysis value that exceeds the standard is obtained, it is said that the cultivation history of the relevant agricultural product will be confirmed, shipping and distribution will be stopped, and recovery measures will be taken. Furthermore, it seems that the cause will be investigated and investigated including the related producers. I heard that the results will be reported to the relevant organizations. JA Aichi Chita is also actively working on the specially cultivated agricultural product “Ikiiki Aichi” certified by JA Aichi Keizairen as an agricultural product that reduces pesticides and chemical fertilizers (nitrogen components) subject to reduction by 50% or more from the local conventional cultivation standards. It seems that it is. I've heard that cabbage, leaf lettuce, cucumber, mandarin orange, and kiwifruit are currently certified. In addition, it is said that it supports eco-friendly agriculture by collecting used horticultural vinyl and pesticides that are no longer needed by changing the production crops and properly treating them through specialists. Now, I would like to introduce the area where the producer lives, though it is simple. Located in the northwestern part of the Chita Peninsula. It faces Ise Bay in the west and has a coastline of about 15 km, bordering Tokai City in the north, Higashiura Town and Agui Town in the east, and Tokoname City in the south. The terrain is flat on average, but it seems to be a hilly area from 30 m to 65 m from the central to the eastern part of the city. The climate is mild throughout the four seasons, and the coastal industrial areas and residential areas are separated by blessed greenery. It seems that the land is easy to live in. The city was born in 1970. There are coastal industrial areas such as power plants and refineries along the coast, and inland areas such as Pekoros and butterbur seem to have developed as a thriving agricultural city.  In addition, it seems that there are many tourist assets such as the plum grove of Souri Pond and Shinmaiko Marine Park at the beach, and many cultural assets such as the oldest Okada post office in the prefecture. There are coastal industrial areas such as power plants and refineries along the coast, and inland areas such as Allium cepa “pekorosu”
and Japanese butterbur seem to have developed as a thriving agricultural city. In addition, it is famous as a town with many tourist assets such as the plum grove of Sori Pond and Shinmaiko Marine Park at the beach, and cultural assets such as the prefecture's oldest Okada Post Office. I heard that people began to live in the city area in the forked area of ​​Shinchi, about 8,000 years ago, in the early Jomon period. It seems that Morinishi shell mound, Ogusa north shell mound, and Ogusa south shell mound are known as the ruins following the bifurcated shell mound. In the Yayoi period, farming rice cultivation began in addition to primitive collection, fishing, and hunting, and it seems that the pottery has changed to a neat shape. From the middle of the Kofun period, salt production became popular in various parts of the coast, and it seems that it was eventually sent to the capital of Nara as a tribute. An old roof tile from the Hakuho period was discovered at Hokaiji Temple in Hachiman, and it seems that it now conveys the remnants of an ancient temple. In addition, the city area is part of Japan's largest group of Chita ancient kilns that prospered from the end of the Heian period to the Kamakura and Muromachi periods, and many ancient kilns are said to be distributed. In the Edo period, the heights of 16 villages were set, and it seems that life has become stable due to the construction of reservoirs and the development of newly reclaimed rice fields. However, the area of ​​cultivated land did not increase compared to the increase in population, and it seems that people went to work with skills they learned such as making black hoe and roof tiles, blacksmithing, and manzai. In the latter half of the Edo period, people's demands for education increased, and it seems that a private elementary school was held in every village. The village seems to have begun to change with the civilization and enlightenment of the Meiji era. In particular, Okada Village, which has been steadily developing as a production area for Chita cotton, seems to have adopted the first town system in the Chita city area in 1903. Even in the Taisho and Showa eras, agriculture, fishing, and textile industries were the main industries, but I heard that the form of the town has changed significantly due to the reclamation of the coastal area that began in October 1962 and the accompanying expansion of companies. The city system was enforced in September 1970, and as the surrounding cities of Nagoya City, which is now the center of the central region, thermal power generation, oil refining, and city gas supply to the south 3 wards and south 4 wards of the southern coastal industrial area of ​​Nagoya. , Shipbuilding, grocery, and feed manufacturing companies are said to be operating. JA Aichi Chita held the “2021 5th Jumbo Pumpkin Contest”, and Mr. Toshinobu Takeuchi (Mr. Takenori's father) from Chita City won the championship at 75.0 kg. He seems to have won the championship for the second time in a row following last year's 4th tournament. It seems that 89 people participated in the contest. The top three contestants were given a certificate and a trophy with a pumpkin decoration, and the top ten were given oranges and Chita beef curry as supplementary prizes. The contest seems to aim to help people understand the importance of agriculture and food on the Chita Peninsula through the cultivation of jumbo pumpkins. By setting up a place to display the pumpkins that have been applied for, it is said that it will help to interact with local residents, support agriculture on the Chita Peninsula, and revitalize the region. The jumbo pumpkins that entered the contest were on display at JA Aguri Town Genki no Sato Fureai Square until September 12. I think there are many people who are interested, so I would like to mention the details of last year. On September 19, 2020, it seems that the award ceremony for the general “jumbo pumpkin” contest was held at JA Aguri Town Genki no Sato in Obu City. Mr. Toshinobu Takeuchi of Chita City won the contest with 77.5 km. JA Aichi Chita seems to have been holding a jumbo pumpkin contest for elementary schools in the jurisdiction for four years as part of its food and agriculture education activities. Since last year, a new “general section” for union members has been added, and a two-part contest has been held. 73 people participated in the general section. It seems that the top three players in the contest were given a certificate, a trophy with a pumpkin decoration, and agricultural products such as oranges and pears as a supplementary prize. In the elementary school section, 12 elementary schools in the jurisdiction participate. Ogawa Elementary School in Higashiura Town won the championship at 48.7 km. It was around August 2014, but it seems that the flowers of Agave americana bloomed from the end of July on the bank of the mandarin orange field. The flower stalk that stretches to about 7 m stands out even from a distance, and it seems that people on the road are looking up. This flower grows slowly, and it is said that it takes 30 to 50 years for the flower to bloom in Japan. It seems that the plant that bloomed this time was inherited from an acquaintance when Mr. Takeuchi was 10 years old and was planted in his garden and transplanted to the bank of the field where the land readjustment was completed about 15 years ago. Currently, the stock seems to be spreading in a corner of the bank. In 2012, the flower stalk grew from one plant and bloomed, but it seems that it collapsed before it bloomed. This year, it seems that the flower stalks, which began to grow around May, are supported by stanchions to prepare for flowering. It starts to bloom from the bottom and the flowers are likely to be visible until mid-August. Mr. Toshinobu said at the time, “It's a rare flower, so I want a lot of people to see it.” Let's move on. Japanese butterbur is a perennial plant of the Asteraceae family that is distributed nationwide from Hokkaido to Okinawa. One of the few vegetables native to Japan. It is said that it has been cultivated since the Heian period, and it is a famous story that butterbur is used for food and young shoots of butterbur are used for medicinal purposes. It is said that there are about 200 varieties including wild species, but about 70% of the varieties currently in circulation are “Wase Aichi Fuki”. This butterbur seems to have been discovered in the area of ​​Tokai City, Aichi Prefecture, during the Meiji era. It seems that it spread to the surrounding area in a short time after the local village headman succeeded in self-cultivation. In addition, the irrigation canals constructed in the 1955s seemed to have boosted their widespread use. Since then, the Chita Peninsula seems to have become a major producer of Wase Aichi butterbur. I hear that the shipment volume of JA Aichi Chita butterbur, which controls farmers on the Chita Peninsula, accounts for about 40% of the national share, and that Tokai City and Chita City are responsible for most of the production. Currently, it is mainly cultivated in greenhouses and can be harvested from autumn to spring. It seems that if you plant a root stock that has been frozen and stored during the summer around August, it will germinate because you mistakenly think that spring has come. I've heard that this will allow harvesting from around October. If the greenhouse is kept warm, it will not be affected by the cold of winter, so it will be possible to continue harvesting until spring. It seems that those harvested from October to January of the following year are distinguished from “autumn butterbur” and those harvested from February to May are distinguished from “spring butterbur”. Spring butterbur is fragrant and seems to be close to the seasonal taste of outdoor cultivation. Toshinobu Takeuchi, who has a 50-year career as a butterbur farmer, is also the chairman of the butterbur department of the Spring Vegetables Department of the Chita Horticulture Promotion Council, which is made up of producers from the Chita Peninsula. He set up 35 greenhouses and worked hard with his son Takenori to grow butterbur. In March, when shipments peak, it is said that the days of harvesting will continue. According to his father, he has been busy all year round since he was able to harvest spring and autumn butterbur. It seems that he also cultivated mandarin oranges and rice for several years after he took over the family business. However, the liberalization of agricultural imports has progressed since the 1970s, and he seems to have decided to do it with a single wipe. His son wraps his mowed butterbur in Zizania latifolia (rather than knitting straw) to ripen his role. Originally, it was used as a frost shield for butterbur, but now it is used as a cushioning material when it is no longer needed. The harvested butterbur is brought to the workshop attached to the house. Here, sorting is performed according to the size standard. Takenori will sort by the familiar hand, such as L size if it is 1,000 mm or more, 2L size if it is 1150 mm or more. It is said that they are trying to make the sorting and packing work after harvesting more efficient. The sorted butterbur is wrapped in wrap and packed in cardboard. The butterbur is easy to break, and if it gets scratched, it won't be for sale. Therefore, it seems that the whole process from harvesting to sorting and packing is done carefully by hand. It seems that more than 100 boxes of cardboard containing 4 kg of butterbur may be shipped a day. As mentioned above, even though it boasts such a large amount of butterbur, the overall decrease is due to changes in the Japanese diet. It seems that one of the factors is that the number of butterbur is decreasing on the dining table of ordinary households. Mr. Toshinobu said that the song of the Lunch box also appeared in the lyrics of the nursery rhyme. It seems that he answered with a laugh that it used to be such a familiar vegetable.

The effect of fuquinolide (flavor component) is to promote digestive juices, so it activates and improves gastrointestinal function. If you infuse the butterbur and drink it, it seems to have the effect of helping the respiratory system, such as calming the cough. Squeezed juice can also be expected to have a hemostatic effect. Furthermore, it is well known that it has an intestinal regulating effect.

“Wase Aichi” is fragrant, fresh and pale green, with fast leaf growth, thick stems, and eye-opening.
The Chita Peninsula is a peninsula that protrudes south from Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture, in the central region of Japan. The Chita area consists of a peninsula protruding south from the south of Nagoya City and islands such as Shinojima and Himakajima. It is surrounded by Ise Bay and Mikawa Bay, and has a mild climate, with a normal temperature of around 15 degrees Celsius and normal rainfall. The amount is around 1,500 mm.

The Mr. Takenori family considers it important to keep the water drained while keeping it well drained. Straw is laid on the roots to retain water, and the house is opened and closed so that it does not get stuffy. Throughout the year, work such as soil preparation, staggered planting, vinyl covering and shading will continue according to the cropping type and climate. The planting work in the summer seems to be the most difficult, but by replanting the plants every year, it is said that high quality is stabilized and the outbreak of diseases is suppressed.

The contribution of Japanese immigrants to Brazil is, above all, agriculture. I heard that it was the Japanese who popularized potatoes (Batata: Rodrigo Pinheiro da Silva, a former soccer player from Curitiba, Parana, Brazil, who immediately remembered him), tomatoes, fruits, flowers, and poultry farming. There is. And it seems that the giant Japanese agricultural cooperative Cotia Industrial Association and the Nanbaku Agricultural Cooperative Central Association (Sur Brazil) were particularly powerful in supporting the development of Japanese agriculture. Both agricultural cooperatives reigned in the postwar Brazilian agricultural industry. It was established on December 29, 1929 as a Jukely union by 49 Japanese farmers in the Jukely district north of São Paulo. In August 1933, the name was changed to the Jukely Agricultural Producers Association following the enactment of the Brazilian Union Law. Although internal conflicts continued, it seems that when Genichiro Nakazawa became the managing director in February 1939, the development progressed steadily (until November 1973, excluding the war period, until December 1984, when he died from the same month. Chairman). After Brazil declared war on Japan, Japanese were banned from becoming union officers, but Nakazawa expanded the business volume as an assistant to the board of directors without hindering the operation of the union, and in 1946 the entire state of São Paulo. Has come to be the scope of activity. In 1954, it expanded not only to São Paulo but also to Parana and Minas, so it was renamed as Cooperativa Central Agrícola Sul-Brasil, “Sur Brazil Agricultural Cooperative Central Association”, etc.). Reorganized into a single cooperative and a central association in 1969 to comply with the “New Union Law”. In the 1970s, it continued to develop, such as developing the Cerrado and expanding into Tohoku, and it seems that it became a huge agricultural cooperative along with the Kotia Industrial Association Central Association. However, I heard that it was disbanded on March 30, 1994 due to a slump in business due to an increase in debt due to the turmoil in the Brazilian economy in the latter half of 1980. In addition, agricultural cooperatives were born one after another in the Japanese community from the latter half of the 1920s to the 1930s, when the Consulate-General of Japan in Sao Paulo gave a subsidy to encourage the establishment of the Japanese industrial union as a model. I heard that.

Since Fagopyrum vulgare became widespread during the Genroku (October 23, 1688 to April 15, 1704) era, spicy radish as a condition was actively cultivated, and dried daikon radish and dried leaves were added to rice during the Edo period. It seems that breeding has also progressed. Nowadays, all-purpose radish such as dried daikon strips, pickles, and simmered dishes have become a representative vegetable indispensable to Japanese life. The Nakate Miura system (Miura Daikon) was completed on the Miura Peninsula in 1923. The Miura District Agricultural Association was established in 1902, and it seems that improvement activities have become active. Under these circumstances, the local “Koenbo (Hasse Town)” and “Nerima (Tokyo)” were crossed, and “Nakate Miura” was completed and became “Miura Daikon”. It seems that breeding is continuing.

【Product name】
Lady salad
【Type】
Raphanus sativus var. hortensis
【Production area, wholesale area】
Mito, Hasse Town, Miura City, Kanagawa Prefecture (Miura City Agricultural Cooperative)
【Origin of the name】
I heard that it was named after a woman because it has a beautiful red color and is suitable for salads.
【Major features】
Miura City, Kanagawa Prefecture, is famous as one of the leading outdoor vegetable producing areas in Japan, where radishes, cabbage, and squid are cultivated, taking advantage of the warm climate with an average annual temperature of 15.5 degrees Celsius and annual sunshine hours of 2100 hours. The Miura Agricultural Cooperative aims to establish distinctive agriculture that responds to competition between production areas and diversifying consumer needs through the development of new varieties, the introduction of production technology with less environmental impact, and the development of processed agricultural products. Seems to be. For example, Miura radish is famous for daikon radish, but we are working to expand the production of “lady salad”, which has been developed as a variety, in order to make a new daikon radish for small and tastier salads. Its characteristic is a beautiful red color with a pink tinge on the outside and pure white on the inside. You can eat the whole skin, and it seems that the size is 300-350 g per bottle. In addition, it seems that “Radish distilled spirits” using Miura radish as a processed product are also on sale. Since 1977, breeding has started with the aim of “expanding radish consumption” and “miniaturizing and better taste”, and “Lady Salad” was born, which was developed exclusively for salads (by application). This product was cultivated by crossing Miura radish with American and German radishes. By eating the whole skin, you can get more anthocyanins than white radish. It seems that about 140,000 cases have been shipped from mid-October to the end of March. In developing radish varieties for different purposes, in addition to lady salads, they are also developing “kozakura radishes,” “awazakura radishes,” and “new lady salads.” Within the jurisdiction of the Agricultural Cooperative, radish (about 786 ha: shipment is lady of pleasure Miura radish at the end of December, Japanese white winter radish from early November to February, spring radish from late February to early April), cabbage (Approximately 740 ha: Early spring cabbage Late November to mid-March, Spring cabbage March to late May), Summer watermelon (Approximately 386 ha: July to August), Pumpkin (Approximately 126 ha: June to August), Melon It seems that farming centered on open-field vegetables such as (55 ha: late June to July) is being carried out. Of these, winter-spring radish and early spring / spring cabbage are designated production areas of the country, and watermelon is a designated production area of ​​the prefecture. Recently, Wax gourd, Bitter ground fruit, summer welsh onion, tomatoes, etc. are also cultivated, and it seems that mandarin orange picking and strawberry picking are also carried out. According to the 2005 Agriculture and Forestry Census, the area of ​​cultivated land is about 1190 ha (of which about 1170 ha is ordinary fields), and of the 11.1 billion yen in agricultural output in the same year, radish is 48.5%, cabbage is 26.2%, watermelon is 12.4%, and pumpkin is It seems that 3.6% and melons accounted for 1.8%. Aiming for natural taste and healthy vegetables, in terms of sales, it is said that it is further focusing on special products in cooperation with Yokosuka Hayama Agricultural Cooperative. The Miura City Agricultural Cooperative Shipping Association is organized in 3 locations at the Misaki Branch, 9 at the Hasse Branch, 3 at the Kamimiyada Branch, and 3 at the Matsuwa Branch. Seems to hold. Of these, the spring cabbage shipping group “Matsuwa” formed a spring cabbage shipping group of 68 farmers in the Matsuwa area in 2002, and in collaboration with “Miura D.S.W Co., Ltd.”, deep sea water off Miura. Cultivated spring cabbage (irrigated during the seedling raising period and transplanting period, and sprayed on the foliage once or twice after planting in the field), and shipped with the indication “Use deep sea water off Miura” on the shipping box. It seems that it is. As an aside, Matsuwa mackerel is the brand name of chub mackerel landed at the Matsuwa, Minamishitaura Town, fishing port in Miura City, Kanagawa Prefecture. I heard that it got its name because it was landed at the Matsuwa fishing port. Start fishing at dawn. It seems that a single fish can be put into an ice-covered fish tank without touching it. It seems to be famous as a luxury mackerel brand that grows in the Bungo Channel and is named alongside Seki Saba, which is landed in Saganoseki, Oita Prefecture. It is said that July and after is the season when it is delicious with fat, but the catch is small and it is prized, and it seems that market officials call it “golden mackerel”. If it is sold at a fish store, it will be nearly 10 times the price of a regular Scomber japonicus. The Matsuwa mackerel season is from August to the end of December. Why don't you try it when you visit here? Now, let's move on and briefly explain the traditions and cultural properties of Miura City.

Nationally registered tangible cultural property : Former Hasegawa family house owner / stone warehouse / Garden gate and inner wall: Registered tangible cultural property, Mito, Hasse Town, December 5, 1st year of Reiwa. The genealogy of the rise and fall of the Miura Clan, which dates back to the feudal era of the Middle Ages, is nothing but the history of Miura's prosperity and rise and fall for about 450 years. The story of the clan's activities and sorrows, including Genji, Hojo, and Ashikaga, during the heyday of the Kamakura Period and the destruction of the Muromachi Period, is an honor of Military Family. The fierce battle with Soun Hojo-Ko at Arai; Misaki Castle, the Aburatsubo that became the end of the Miura clan, lasted for three years. Yoshiatsu; 道寸 Miura-Ko, Mr. Arajiro's parent and child's bravery, and the tragic story that most of the road dimensions and officers decayed into Aburatsubo Bay at the time of the fall of the castle are still in the appearance of a quiet cove. I'm keeping it. Ancient, Jomon, Yayoi, and Kofun period ruins are widely distributed in the city. In the early Kamakura period, the Miura clan, including Yoshimori WADA-Ko, was active. Also, during this period, three palace of cherry blossoms, camellia, and peaches were opened in Misaki, and many important people including Minamoto no Yoritomo-Ko visited. A banquet is held by planting cherry trees on Jogashima and Hozoyama in Misaki. During the Edo period, it was a busy port town and was gradually developed as a fishing port, which laid the foundation for the formation of a city as a pelagic fishing base in recent years. In 1590, when Mr. Gohojo was destroyed by Hideyoshi-Ko's attack on Odawara Castle, Ieyasu-Ko left the Tokai region in response to Hideyoshi-Ko's intention, and the former territory of Gohojo, the six Kanto countries Kozuke,. It is reported that the territory was changed to Kazusa, Shimosa, Sagami, Musashi, Izu and entered Edo Castle. Ieyasu-Ko placed the Hatamoto in a place that can be reached overnight from Edo, and in the distance, mainly selected the meritorious people of the Tokai era as daimyo and placed them on the Tokaido line. Miura District; The Miura Peninsula is under the direct control of all but some of the flagship territories, and Nagatsuna Hasegawa-Ko was invited by Suruga as the deputy head of the government, and a camp was set up on the shores of Uraga Bay. In 1594, Toyotomi Hideyoshi's nationwide land survey was conducted all over the country, and Kokudaka of rice was seized in Miura District. His servant, Masafusa Moriya(Former Takeda retainer)-Ko, was involved in the inspection of Kikoba Village as a substitute for Nagatsuna-Ko, the deputy chief of each. It is believed that many of the indigenous people who have been indigenous to the area since ancient times have been incorporated into Ieyasu-Ko's Military and agricultural separation policy and have become village officials. On the other hand, the Shogunate placed four ship magistrates, Masatsuna Mukai-Ko, Kagetaka Ohama-Ko, Takanori Mamiya-Ko, and Magobei Chiga-Ko, in Misaki, the southern tip of the Miura Peninsula, as a restraint at the mouth of Edo Bay. Mr. Mukai(Mr. Imagawa, Mr. Takeda, Mr. Tokugawa)was given the position of magistrate of the ship, and his power was famous in the sea of ​​Sagami. In 1615, when the TOYOTOMI army was settled by the Siege of Osaka, the three were assigned to Edo, leaving only Mr. Mukai, who left the footsteps of the clan on the Miura Peninsula for a long time. “Misaki, Hashirimizu Guardhouse” : The Shogunate established various checkpoints to maintain security, and set up a maritime security action at Misaki and Hashirimizu as a maritime security at the mouth of Edo Bay. It is said that ascending ships were monitored in Misaki and descending ships were monitored in Hashirimizu. Direct retainer of a shogun acts as a magistrate at both bansho, and concentricity is in charge of the practice. The magistrate of Miura and Hashirimizu Bansho not only takes charge of all the work related to the sea, but also the deputy head of Miura District, Nagatsuna Hasegawa-Ko and Nagashige-Ko (nephew of Nagatsuna) died between 1596 and 1614. The camp is abolished. It is reported that in 1648, both magistrates also served as deputy officials except for a part of Miura District, and oversaw the village administration by paying the annual tribute rice under the direct control of the shogunate. As for the change of lords, the lords who rule here have changed with the times since Ieyasu-Ko entered the Kanto region. In 1590, Hideyoshi-Ko unification of the whole country and Miura District became under the direct control of Mr. TOKUGAWA. Land inspection is conducted in Nobi Village and Sugaruya Village in 1591. In 1600, the De Liefde was washed ashore in Bungo, and Mr. William Adams was sent to Uraga. Hemi Village to Mr. Anjin Miura (Mr. Williams Adams) from 1600 to 1614. After the fall of Osaka Castle (the destruction of Toyotomi) in 1615, Mr. Mamiya and others Misaki were withdrawn to Edo, and Mr. Chiga and Mr. Ohama were also withdrawn to Edo. Reconstruction of Shinbuji Yakushido in Numama Village in 1622. 1632 Tadakatsu Mukai-Ko, ordered to Hashirimizu number, Yoriki six horses, concentric thirty people are entrusted. In 1639, itabi-type Koshinto was built at Sogenji Temple in Kugyo Village (the oldest Koshinto in the city). 1641 Masakata Mukai-Ko, Otsu, and Morisaki were given 1,000 koku and became a Hashirimizu ship magistrate. 1660, Shinzaemon Sunamura-Ko begins development of Uchikawa Shinden. 1665, Shinzaemon-Ko Build a monument on the Yawata River tide embankment. 1667 Sunamura-Ko completes 585 Ishiyo Uchikawa Shinden. 1674 Mukai Shogen Masakatsu-Ko died (Tadakatsu's sixth son), buried in Otsu Village Teisho-ji Temple A fish wholesaler in Edo Odawara, Honmoku Kanazawa Territory and Miura 17gaura argue for entry and exit. 1679 Uchikawa Shinden divided into two (later Zenroku group, Yobei group). 1683 Takeyama Fudoson moves from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain 1688 Higashiurawa's Subashiri (fry of mullet) fishing is subject to 13 tax; 貫: 1300両= 13000匁= 約48.75 kg. 1691 Uraga Tomyodo's expenses are charged to the dried eel wholesaler 1692 Uraga is divided into Higashi Uraga and Nishi Uraga. 1696 Misaki and Hashirimizu magistrates are abolished. 1703 Minami-Kantou, Tokai earthquake, tsunami wrecked Uraga, Higashi-Uraga's dried eel wholesaler was damaged, and the gate of Daimei-ji Temple in Kanaya village was destroyed. 1720 The Shimoda magistrate is abolished and a magistrate's office is set up in Uraga. First magistrate Hori Okinokami Toshio-Ko, Yoriki 10 people, Concentric 50 people 1721 Inspection of kaisen begins at Uraga guardhouse. 1739 Higashi-Uraga's dried eel wholesaler, unpaid due to past luck, pleaded with Uraga magistrate's office again. 1740 Boso Mikuni's dried eels have been declining to the top of the hierarchy that they should be landed in Higashiuraga. 1750 Matsudaira Yamato no kami Tomonori-Ko occupies 32 villages in Miura District. 1777 Shogoro Edoya asks Uraga to open a laundry shop (prostitute business). After that, on January 1, 1955, Misaki Town, Minamishitaura Town, and Hasse Village merged to form “Miura City”, which continues to this day. “Minamishitaura Town Agricultural Cooperative" will be added on April 1, 1969. “Japanese ⌈Aokubi (greenhead)radish」”, It is said that it was first cultivated as Miura radish since the Meiji era. Initially, the surrounding area was from the sea, and transportation was carried to Tokyo by ship, but at the end of the Taisho era, transportation was shifted to automobiles. Along with the advancement of cultivation techniques under the guidance of agricultural associations, voluntary unions were formed by producers. Mainly on sale in the Tokyo market. In the latter half of the Showa 30's(1950s), the number of farmers who own private and transport vehicles increased, and individual shipments increased. Agricultural cooperatives will strengthen joint shipping and sales, and in 1978, 3 million cases, more than half of which will be jointly shipped, will be reflected. Introduced in 1979 in light of consumption trends such as miniaturization, weight reduction, and sweet taste. Since it sells higher than “Miura radish”, it became mainstream in the latter half of the 1970s.)and agriculture centered on open-field vegetable cultivation in the suburbs of the Tokyo metropolitan area. 野菜生産出荷安定法,(Act on Stabilization of Production and Shipment of Vegetables), 昭和四十一年,法律第百三号,(Act No. 103 of 1966): We are striving for planned production and shipment such as vegetable price stabilization business. Radish grows lush even in winter and is shipped mainly from December to March. It is said that the shipping time is decided by dividing into the conventional Miura radish (White), Winter radish and Spring radish, and the cultivation method is decided for each variety. Producers strives for proper use of chemical fertilizers, healthy soil preparation, and soil conservation. Competitive plant, green manure crop planting, manure building installation. There is no dedication to ensuring a stable organic fertilizer. There are seventeen collection and shipping areas in the jurisdiction, and Producers bring in individually selected radishes. The staff in charge inspects and receives the goods, and the union decides the shipping quantity by market and transports it to the market. For vegetables in Miura, the producers are thoroughly booked in the control management diary. We cultivate open-air cultivation that makes full use of the warm nature of the Miura Peninsula to provide delicious radishes. Require an extraordinary effort and involvement. The boughs that bear most hang lowest. I think so too. The better the person, the more humble. Typical industry: Fisheries centered on the Misaki fishing port(Specified Type 3 Fishing Port; Designated on March 21, 1960. Act on Development of Fishing Ports and Grounds, Act No. 137 of 1950(漁業漁場整備法, 昭和二十五年, 五月二日, 法律第百三十七号,漁業法, 昭和二十四年, 法律第二百六十七号)): The term “Japanese port” as used in this Act shall mean those ports and harbors for which port and harbor area was publicly noticed, pursuant to the provision of paragraph 1, Article 9 of Ports and Harbors Act (Act No. 218 of 1950) including the cases where it is applied mutatis mutandis pursuant to paragraph 2, Article 33 of the said Act, and fishing ports as provided in Article 2 of Act on Development of Fishing Ports and Grounds (Act No. 137 of 1950). In the Taisho era, a tuna longline fishing boat equipped with a diesel engine appeared, and it seems that the motorization and size of the fishing boat progressed rapidly. Kaneda Bay morning market: Direct sales of fishermen, farmers, and producers Seasonal ingredients and specialty products are crowded and crowded. Anniversary, every Sunday 5: 50-7: 30 May-September: Every Saturday 12: 00-16: 00, Ends as soon as sold out. December 29th (Sat) and 30th (Sun) at the end of the year, big sale at the end of the year (held from 5:50 as soon as there are no more products. Reopening date, from 5:30 am on Sunday, June 7, R2 (scheduled to be held every Sunday thereafter). A venerable place that has been held since 1987. Marine recreation, which shows a wide variety of areas, is also adding new attractions as a tourism product. Due to the influence of the Kuroshio Current, the winter is warm, with an average annual temperature of 15.5 degrees Celsius, annual rainfall of 1,500 mm, and annual sunshine hours of more than 2,100 hours, which belongs to the oceanic climate. The cultivated area is 1,791 hectares, of which more than 98% are fields (including orchards,2012). Agriculture centered on open-field vegetables that take advantage of the warm climate is active as a core industry. In particular, Japanese radish: Boasts the largest planted area, yield, and shipment volume in Japan,(Japanese radish with a greenish head)and cabbage(It is one of the best producing areas in Japan and produces autumn / winter cabbage and spring cabbage. It has the second oldest history after radish and is said to have started around 1890. In the olden days, winter cabbage was cultivated, which was flat and tightly headed. In the first half of the 1965's, the soft and sweet spring cabbage that has been cultivated until now was introduced in the winter cropping type. Raising seedlings on the ground is the mainstream. Compared to cell-molded seedlings, it takes time and effort to take measures against pests such as soil disinfection. However, since it does not require special facilities or materials, it can be manufactured at low cost. I heard that spring cabbage, which is planted in severe winter, which cannot be rooted by plug seedling, can also be raised. Since the optimum planting period is long, it is possible to plant plants even if the harvest of the previous crop is around due to typhoons or unseasonable weather.)are Famous as one of the largest production areas in Japan, and are famous as nationally designated production areas(1980). There are many vegetables and fruits, but recently, autumn and winter vegetables such as broccoli and cauliflower are also produced. On October 1, 1965, “Hasse Town” and “Misaki Town” merged to form “Miura city Farmers' Cooperative.” Minamishitaura-machi Agricultural Cooperative will be added on April 1, 1969. “Spring cabbage” country designated production area ; Cultivation is the second oldest after Radish and is said to have started around 1892. Previous, the mainstream was the Toran(寒玉, 冬藍) Winter Cabbage, which was flat and tightly headed. The first half of the 1965's(Winter cropping) : Introduced the soft and sweet Spring cabbage that has been cultivated until now : Then, the cropping pattern with early spring was established.Spring cabbage is from 1965, ‘early spring cabbage’ is 1980. Seeds every year from late September to mid-October : Planted from late October to mid-February : It is expected to be harvested from early March to early May. It is characterized by being sweeter and softer than early spring cabbage. It is popular as a variety suitable for raw food such as salads. Cultivation at the right time for growth is essential for spring cabbage. The damage from pests is small, and the number of times the drug is sprayed is small. After spring cabbage, mid-early cabbage will also be shipped in mid-May. Root decay disease and damping-off are diseases that become a problem at the seedling raising stage. Drugs are commonly used to prevent this.Availability of solar heat as a resource conservation method with less burden on the environment-Part of the Miura Peninsula. In connection with that, we are working on a soil disinfection method. Soil solarization ; Apply fertilizer and maintain it so that it can be seeded. By covering the nursery with vinyl, the soil temperature rises. In addition, it can kill bacteria that are sensitive to high temperatures and control weeds. Cost reduction by using old vinyl used for cultivation of Melon and Watermelon. In addition, by covering, the surface of the soil can be kept moist. It becomes very good as a seed condition with summer wisdom. I hear that raising seedlings on the ground is the mainstream in production areas. Ground seedling raising ; Compared to cell-molded seedlings(plug seedling), measures against pests such as soil disinfection are required. This is a lot of work and effort. However, it does not require any special facilities or materials, so it seems that it can be made at low cost. Plug seedling- Spring cabbage that is planted in the cold season when it cannot survive can also be raised. In addition, the optimum period for planting tends to be long. Planting is possible even if the harvest of the previous crop is around due to typhoons and inclemency. In the area, three croppings in two years rotation cropping are performed. And the turnover rate of the field is very high. In order to speed up shipping, “Intercession” in part. It's a task that must maintain the system. For intercropping, the ridges of radish or cabbage are set wider than usual. Planted between ridges before harvesting the previous crop ; Spring Cabbage. The previous radish is harvested from December to January. The planting time is around mid-November before that : Before the previous radish is harvested, it is intercropped in the furrows. There is also an example of planting spring cabbage as an intercropping of early spring cabbage. Harvest ; The stock is sufficiently headed and pushed from above to harden, and this is done in sequence. It is divided into about 3 times to wait for it to grow to large(L)size. Pack the stock in a 10 kg cardboard box(8 pieces L size center)and go to the collection and shipping area. Everyone cooperated(Agricultural cooperative / Municipal / prefectural related organizations)in 2008 to promote and practice GAP(Good Agricultural Practices)- Formed a promotion subcommittee. Workshops have been held since the fall of 2009. Distribute check sheets to each producer. Raised mainly using organic fertilizer ; Surrounded by the sea, it is exposed to plenty of sunlight and is soft even in winter. Approximately 3.1 million cases (Approximately 3,500 large trucks) have been shipped. The union sells sweet, fluffy and soft spring cabbage on an online shopping site. The freshness is the best because it is harvested in the morning and shipped that day. By all means, everyone should try it. It was cultivated from the middle of the Meiji era, and increased rapidly from around 1957 due to the spread of grafting cultivation. The varieties are “Fujihikari TR” and “Matsuri Bayashi 11” for Otama Ball, and “Himekansen” and “Madderball” for Small Ball Watermelon. Wax gourd and Lagenaria siceraria var. hispida are mainly used as rootstocks, and planting is from early April to early May, and there are two cultivation methods: tunnel pruning and non-pruning “Okkabuse cultivation”; Cultivation method that simplifies ventilation work by cultivating in a vinyl tunnel with ventilation holes. In addition, in order to improve the quality, there seems to be some prior cultivation in which a tunnel is made at the tip of the vine during the fruit set period. The harvest period is from late June to mid-August, and the yield is about 5,000 kg per 10 a. Watermelons on the Miura Peninsula have a crispy texture and a unique juiciness, and are highly evaluated by the market and consumers. “Small ball watermelon from Miura city”, The flesh is as crisp as a large watermelon, and the skin is dark green with thick stripes and clear. The pericarp is thin and about 3 mm, but it has sufficient hardness and tends not to crack in a few things. It is known as a variety with significantly less fruit cracking during transportation and physiological fruit cracking during growth. Little is in season in summer, and the quality of the second fruit is the same as that of the first fruit. It has a sugar content of 13 degrees or more and a strong crispness, and has the best taste. The varieties are mainly grown in greenhouses and large tunnels, but they are also suitable for harvesting in August for outdoor cultivation and October to December for controlled cultivation. It has few seeds and is easy to eat, it is sweet to the edge of the skin, and it is kind to nature because the skin is thin and there is little kitchen waste.

Algorithm: For agricultural cooperatives, shipping distribution is one of the most troublesome tasks. It seems that it will grasp the amount of shipments shipped from farmers the next day, decide the shipment quantity for each delivery destination such as the market, and decide how to load the packages on which shipping company's truck. This work is basically done manually. In the case of Miura Agricultural Cooperative, the farmer first informs each shipping station of the next day's shipping schedule, and each shipping station contacts the agricultural cooperative. The agricultural cooperative entered the quantity received from all shipping offices into Excel, decided the quantity to be shipped to about 50 markets from Hokkaido to Osaka, and made a vehicle allocation schedule based on that. With the advancement of IT in agriculture, a system has emerged that significantly shortens the time required to create delivery schedules for shipments, which is one of the most difficult tasks of agricultural cooperatives. It takes only one second to do the work that took eight hours a day. It will be introduced by Miura City Agricultural Cooperative Association (hereinafter Miura City Agricultural Cooperative) and Cybozu Inc(Developed in collaboration with Cybozu Lab Co., Ltd. (Location: Chuo Ward, Tokyo, President: Teppei Sato, hereinafter Cybozu Lab).  Temporarily implemented from April.)in Kanagawa Prefecture. It seems that it will be possible to schedule vehicle allocations faster and more efficiently than humans can calculate using a unique algorithm. I've heard that the part that takes the longest time is the part that schedules vehicle allocation. At the agricultural cooperative, it seems that the work of determining the shipment quantity for each market after grasping the shipment quantity of the farmer is completed in about 2 hours, but it seems that it takes about 8 hours for mid-career staff to make a schedule for dispatching the vehicle after that. Even a veteran takes 5 to 6 hours, which is a heavy burden, so I heard that this part was systematized in the winter of 2018 in cooperation with Cybozu.

Impression that it contains a lot of water. It is recommended for those who are on a diet because it is low in calories and has a satisfying taste. Contains a large amount of anthocyanins in the skin. Since the leaves contain a lot of vitamin C, potassium, calcium, β-carotene, etc., it is more effective to eat the leaves together with the roots. 

In 2013, he applied for the “Project to Expand Japanese Food” sponsored by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, and was certified as a “model area” by the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries. While pursuing the future vision of Miura City's agriculture, fishery and tourism industries, we are developing various initiatives.

Breeding for the purpose of expanding radish consumption and “miniaturizing and better taste” is further developing
