In the Yatsushiro area, winter-spring tomatoes were designated as designated production areas in 1966, and summer-autumn tomatoes were designated as designated production areas in 1978, and the shipment volume of tomatoes by municipality was the highest in Japan. Spring tomatoes have been cultivated for a long time, but modernization of facility cultivation has made it possible to accelerate the planting time, and it seems that the production of winter tomatoes has exceeded the production of spring tomatoes since around 1970. The history of tomato production in the Yatsushiro area seems to have started around 1953. The JA Gunchiku Horticultural Club was established around 1961. It is a historic subcommittee that has been leading the production of tomatoes in Kumamoto, and is still developing. Tomatoes are loved all over the world as nutritious vegetables and are one of the excellent vegetables that are indispensable to the table. In Japan, along with the westernization of food after the war, cultivation technology has developed and breeding has progressed, resulting in a large increase in consumption. The acreage and shipment volume increased along with the large-scale consumption, and the designated production area in 2020 was the core supply production area, which accounted for 51% of the nationwide acreage and 65% of the nationwide shipment volume. From winter to spring, production areas such as Kumamoto, Tochigi, and Aichi prefectures are famous. For half a century, the Yatsushiro area of ​​Kumamoto Prefecture has become the number one tomato kernel supply base in Japan by expanding the introduction of facility horticultural greenhouses, improving cultivation techniques, and improving fruit sorting plants while utilizing the vegetable price stabilization system. Is making an effort in Japanese agriculture. Approximately 80% of shipments utilize the vegetable price stabilization system, and while there are issues such as aging, labor shortages, and increased costs such as labor costs and transportation costs, the vegetable price stabilization system addresses price fluctuation risks. At the same time, we are promoting initiatives such as acquiring GAP, measuring and selling the functional ingredient lycopene: C40H56, introducing environmental control technology, and strengthening the acceptance system for foreign skill trainees, aiming for a production area of ​​choice for consumers and actual consumers.

It is said that about 502 years ago, Iwasaki Shimenokami TADAHISA-Ko of Yatsushiro's Agetsuchi lord of a castle encouraged rush cultivation in the territory. The Iwasaki Shrine, which enshrines Prince Iwasaki, was built on the ruins of the castle, and seems to be gathering the worship of local residents. Most of the Yatsushiro Plain is reclaimed land and is blessed with water, so the area is known all over the world as Japan's number one rush producing area. For a while, the production volume decreased significantly due to the influence of cheap Juncus decipiens produced in foreign countries, but while Japanese culture is being reviewed again, we are working on breeding and developing new rush products to create a new living space. It seems that food development based on utilization and health consciousness is being actively carried out. Products using rush are used not only for cushions, coasters, bags, Japanese traditional paper, but also for interiors and foods, and it seems that the range of utilization is expanding greatly as a special product of the Yatsushiro area. However, in 1997, the rush crash occurred. It seems that some people had difficulty in rebuilding their business due to the disappearance of Japanese straw floor covering from Japanese greenhouses and the drastic decrease in demand, and the large amount of Juncus from China. Don't forget those who have experienced the hellish suffering of the workers. Around 2000, at the Totsurazawa site in Hirosaki City, Aomori Prefecture (around 300-400 AD), indentations of textile woven with wild grass like rush were found from the bottom of Jomon pottery, and unglazed earthenware was discovered. There is an example.

【Major features】
The brand “Hachibee Tomato(Separately, tomatoes that are cultivated in soil rich in salt and minerals peculiar to the reclaimed land peculiar to the Yatsushiro area and have the characteristics of high sugar content, small balls and hard skin are salted tomatoes (trade name: “Sun child” and “salt”. It is branded as “Salt Jiro”), and the sugar content of 8 degrees or more is named “Celebrity” and the sugar content of 10 degrees or more is named “Royal Celebrity”. In addition, non-standard tomatoes are used for processing dried tomatoes, tomato ketchup, tomato juice, and the like.)” produced by the JA, “Juncus decipiens”, the raw material for Japanese straw floor covering, and Citrus maxima 'Banpeiyu’, which is registered as Guinness as the world's largest citrus fruit, boast the highest production in Japan. In addition, facility gardening such as strawberries and melons, “outdoor vegetables” containing a lot of minerals in reclaimed land, “ginger” which is one of the leading production areas in Japan, and “Yoshino Pear” (Kumamoto prefecture), which has the oldest history in the prefecture. It is also famous as the “birthplace of pears.” In 1904, Mr. Kumasaburo YAMADA planted 100 pear seedlings near the former Yoshino Village Hotta (currently Yatsushiro District), and in June 2004. Is holding a grand commemorative ceremony to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Yoshino pear planting.)  And other agricultural products are being shipped to various parts of the country with passion and affection by producers. The JA's agricultural products are both delicious and safe. Toyo Town (Masonry Village), which is the main production area for ginger cultivation in the Yatsushiro area, is located in the central and southern part of Kumamoto Prefecture, between the Yatsushiro Plain and the Kyushu Mountains, about 40 km from Kumamoto City. The climate is relatively warm and rainy with an average annual temperature of 15.3 degrees Celsius and an annual rainfall of 2,437 mm, with an average annual temperature of 15.15 km, north-south 15.27 km, and a total area of ​​64.56 km2. In the same production area, there are not many fields with large-scale infrastructure development, and the main planting is in small fields peculiar to mountainous areas, and it seems that the average area per field is 350 m2 or less. The ginger field that spreads out in the valley-shaped stepped fields has been selected as one of the 100 best terraced rice fields in some areas, but due to the slope, cultivation management is centered on small machines and manual work, and the land conditions are inefficient as a field. It seems that it is. In the area, cultivation began in some areas as a seed ginger producing area from the end of the Taisho era, but with the rice production adjustment in 1970, the cultivation using paddy fields increased sharply, and the ginger producing area became. It was formed and now seems to be a specialty of the town, which accounts for about 40% of the prefecture's shipments. Every year on the 4th Sunday of October, a ginger festival is held to announce the harvesting work of ginger, along with a fair to determine the crops. This festival has been held 37 times this year, and it has become a big event for the whole town, where more than 30,000 people from all over the country gather. It seems that the original culture strain has been introduced as the most important seed in ginger production. Currently, it is growing, and it seems that it is working hard to improve quality and yield by breeding varieties with high productivity and storability and selecting excellent lines. As a measure for irrigation in the summer, which has a large impact on yield, the order and time of use of water sources, valley springs, water tanks, etc. secured by boring, usage fees, etc. are allocated to each district, and arrangements are made to ensure smooth watering work. Seems to be. As a measure for soil preparation, soil analysis is carried out every year, and farming cooperation with other areas is carried out while performing appropriate fertilization. I hear that they are enforcing the management of tolerable soil. In terms of disease control, Pythium myriotylum Drechsler (P. zinziberis Takahashi), which causes the most serious damage to ginger diseases, overwinters mainly in the form of follicles with damaged tissues, is transmitted to the soil, and is a species caused by diseased tubers. It seems that tuber transmission is also performed. Secondary transmission is caused by zooloculants released from the bacterial cells into the water, so it seems that it may occur frequently when the field is flooded. It is infected when the soil temperature is 15 to 20 ° C or higher, 5 After the end of the month, the number of occurrences tends to increase when there is a lot of rainfall. The first occurrence in a normal year is in the middle of June, but it seems that the first occurrence will be earlier in a year when the soil temperature is high.)  In the past (1969-1971), it was heard that torrential rain and humid conditions followed by Pythium myriotylum Drechsler (P. zinziberis Takahashi), which caused catastrophic damage to the survival of the production area. As a result of investigating this factor, the dumping of the diseased ginger into the river was considered to be one of the causes of the spread of the disease. It seems that the water source has been secured and the disease-free bacteria have been irrigated. Furthermore, it seems that thorough preventive management is being carried out, such as introducing soil disinfection technology, changing work shoes for each field when entering ginger fields, and replacing disinfection greenhoses. Well, as a drainage measure in the field, it seems that it is secured so that drainage can be done by thoroughly implementing drainage measures before planting and enhancing drainage in small grooves at small intervals. In recent years, as a measure against pests, moth-proof lights have been installed to reduce the chemical control of night moths, which are the main pests, and it seems that safer and more secure ginger is being produced. As of 2009, in the Asian market, where high growth has continued, demand for high-end Japanese foodstuffs and Japanese food has increased significantly due to the emergence of the wealthy and middle class. In addition to the WTO accession of China and Taiwan in Asia, the EPA: Economic Partnership Agreement between Japan and Asian countries (elimination and reduction of tariffs on goods between two or more countries / regions, improvement of investment environment, etc. The fact that trade liberalization is accelerating, such as the establishment of a series of agreements that establish common rules for the protection of intellectual property rights and strengthen economic ties, is also a tailwind for expanding agricultural exports. It was. Kumamoto Prefecture, which is located in central Kyushu, is geographically close to Asia and is in a favorable environment in terms of logistics. It still remains an important issue in the development of agriculture. The JA, which is located in the Yatsushiro area of ​​Kumamoto prefecture, aims to provide more delicious, safer and more secure agricultural products with NEC (established by NEC Corporation on July 17, 1899) and NEPON Inc. (6, 1948). Introduced “Agricultural ICT Cloud Service” jointly developed by (established on 9th of March) from 2012 to 2013. The situation of the field, which was previously unknown without visiting the site, can be monitored in real time through sensors and smartphones installed in the house. In addition to helping to maintain the optimum environment, it is also used as a management platform for strictly complying with the pesticide use regulations stipulated by law. The result is that the temperature of the field and the amount of carbon dioxide are monitored in real time through sensors in the greenhouse and smartphones and tablet terminals. In addition to helping to maintain the optimum environment, it also suppresses risks such as abnormal temperatures. If you enter the sprayed pesticide into the system, the cumulative spray amount for each ingredient will be calculated automatically. Supports stricter management by raising alerts such as reversing colors just before reaching the specified amount. By analyzing the accumulated data, know-how can be extracted as objective data. It seems that he was able to grasp the tendency to produce good results and use it for future farming guidance.(The agricultural ICT cloud service collects and stores the temperature / humidity of the field, the amount of sunshine, the amount of carbon dioxide, etc. in the cloud through sensors installed in the house, and realizes remote monitoring. If you set a threshold value for temperature etc., it is possible to ring the smartphone and issue an alarm when there is an abnormality. Respond quickly to troubles and avoid damage.)Yatsushiro Specialty Banpeiyu : Registration No. 94, Registration Date March 30, 2020, Registration Application No. 201, Registration Application Date, March 29, 2019, Registered Producer Name of organization, Yatsushiro GI Brand Promotion Council, Address of registered producer organization, Furushiro Town, Yatsushiro City, Kumamoto, Name of representative of registered producer organization, Chairman Mr. Yoshihisa Hayashida. Address of website of registered producer organization, Classification of Specified Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, etc. Class 1 Agricultural Products Fruits (citrus decumana), Names of Specified Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, Yatsushiro Specialty citrus decumana, Yatsushiro Specialty Banpeiyu, Production Area of ​​Specified Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, Kumamoto Prefecture Yatsushiro City, Furushiro Town, Yatsushiro District, Kumamoto Prefecture, Characteristics of specified agriculture, forestry and fishery products, etc. The average shipping size is about 20 cm in width. Some of them weigh more than 4 kg when they become large, and in 2005, they were certified as the Guinness World Records as the world's heaviest in the citrus pomelo category. In addition, a coloring standard is set at the time of shipment, and as the maturity progresses, a refreshing citrus aroma spreads from the epidermis, and it seems that the taste is excellent with moderate sweetness and refreshing acidity. Due to its size and good taste, “Yatsushiro specialty citrus decumana” has long been popular as a fruit in the Yatsushiro region, which represents winter, and is now highly regarded by the market as a specialty product and as a gift such as year-end gifts. It has been exported to Hong Kong since 2014 and seems to be used as a gift for the Chinese New Year. Production method of specified agriculture, forestry and fishery products (1) Cultivation method: Banpeiyu is used for varieties (a) Artificial pruning is performed during the flowering period to promote fruit set and enlargement (b) Promotion of fruit enlargement (C) Pruning and bagging to improve the appearance. For shipping, it is assumed that the width is 15 cm or more and the actual color is almost complete. However, if the damage caused by scratches or pests exceeds 1/2, it will be used for processed products. Shipping form as a final product: The shipping form of “Yatsushiro specialty citrus decumana” as a final product is fruits and vegetables (citrus decumana). : The Yatsushiro area has abundant soil and abundant water brought by the Kuma River and Hikawa, and is a fertile and well-drained soil. It faces the Yatsushiro Sea and has a warm climate with long sunshine hours. It seems that it is suitable for the production of pomelo because the dew is removed by the sea breeze and it is difficult for frost to fall. In the Yatsushiro area, Yatsushiro Zabon has been cultivated as a garden tree since the 17th century, and there has been cultivation technology for pomelo since ancient times. Therefore, it seems that the technology and management method necessary for large ball production and artificial pollination, fruit thinning, pruning, and bagging for quality improvement permeated the area, and it was established as a production center of Banpeiyu together with geographical factors. In 1965, along with establishing the current shipping standards, it seems that it has been working on quality improvement and regional brand products by using the name “Yatsushiro specialty citrus decumana”. The track record of producing specified agricultural, forestry and fishery products in the production area, the place of origin is Polynesia and Malaysia, and it was introduced to Japan in 1930. It was called citrus decumana because it was later than Banpeiyu cultivated in Taiwan. After introducing it to Japan, it was difficult to find a suitable place for cultivation, but it seems that it was planted in the Yatsushiro area in 1951 and confirmed to be a suitable place. The characteristics of citrus decumana were announced at the Kumamoto Prefecture Citrus Festival in the 1955s, and it seems that planting has increased. In 1965, the Banpeiyu Subcommittee of the Yatsushiro Fruit Agricultural Cooperative Association was established, and the current shipping standards were set. In addition, it seems that cultivation spread rapidly with the donation to His Majesty the Emperor. It was decided as a recommended variety in the prefecture in 1975, and it seems that it has become established as a specialty citrus in the Yatsushiro area as the area increases. It is often used for local events, and it is also useful as a gift such as year-end gifts, and it seems that it has been evaluated by market participants and consumers. According to the statistics of the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries in 2015, about 90% of the national production is produced in the Yatsushiro area, and it is said that the shipment volume in 2018 is 800 tons.  Applicability of Article 13, Paragraph 1, Item 4 (b) of the Act Not applicable. In 1920, it is reported that the high-quality fruit variety “Banpeiyu” was imported from the Malay Peninsula, where it originated, to Taiwan by Mr. Yaichi Shimada, a botanist from Kumamoto Prefecture who was working for the Government-General of Taiwan at that time. Fifteen years later, in 1935, by courtesy of Mr. Shimada, as a result of making a prototype at the Kumamoto Prefectural Fruit Experiment Station, it seems that it was found to be suitable for the climate of Kumamoto, especially the Yatsushiro region. Currently, as one of the recommended citrus varieties in Kumamoto Prefecture, the fruit has a high commercial value and is donated to the development of regional agriculture so that it is encouraged only in the Yatsushiro region. “Yatsushiro City”, Kumamoto Prefecture : It is located about 40 km south of Kumamoto City, the prefecture's capital. It has an area of ​​about 50 km from east to west, about 30 km from north to south, and an area of ​​about 680 km2. The west faces Yatsushiro Sea, and the north is Yatsushiro District, Uki, Kamimashiki, and Shimomashiki. It borders Higashiusuki District in the east and Kuma District and Ashikita District in the south. It is divided into mountainous areas and plains by the “Hinagu fault scarp”.(It is estimated that the latest activity period for the Kouya-Shirahata section is after about 1,600 years ago and before about 1,200 years ago. The average activity interval is unknown, and it is possible that the amount of deviation during activity was about 2 m, mainly due to right lateral deviation. In the Hinagu section, the average activity interval may be about 36 million years to 11,000 years. New The activity period is estimated to be after about 8400 years ago and before about 2,000 years ago. Dislocation It seems that there was a relative uplift of about 3 m on the southeast side and a lateral shift to the right beyond that. It is possible that the Yatsushiro Sea section was active at intervals of about 11,100 to 6,400 years on average. New The activity period is estimated to be after about 1,700 years ago and before about 900 years ago. There is a possibility of the Higo earthquake in 744 AD. It is estimated that there was a deviation of about 3 m during the activity, but the direction of the deviation is unknown.etc.)About 70% of the total area is mountainous and about 30% is plain. In the mountainous area, Kunimi-peak (1,739 m) in Izumi town is the highest peak and forms the backbone area of ​​the Kyushu Mountains. Examples of the hiding villages of the Heike no Ochiudo include Gokanosho in Kumamoto Prefecture and Gokayama in Toyama Prefecture. The city is dazzling with its history and natural scenery. The plains are rich in land formed by the Kumagawa River, one of Japan's three rapids, and the Hikawa River system. An alluvial plain centered on alluvial fans and deltas. In addition, it has a vast plain that has been reclaimed for many years. Utilizing these abundant resources, many agricultural products such as rush(Juncus effusus L. var. decipens Buchen.)and tomato are produced. In addition to the blessed natural conditions, the construction of seaside industrial land and the enhancement of port facilities were planned, and factories of large companies entered the market from early on. It is in the middle of developing as one of the prefecture's leading industrial cities. Developed Yatsushiro Port, the largest international trading port in the prefecture as an Asia logistics base. It is a key point for land and sea transportation. It is famous as an area with abundant nature, resources, and a high base of transportation. Kumamoto Prefecture faces the sea on the west side, and the rest of the mountains are lined up, so the climate varies from region to region. Around the Kumamoto Plain, summer is hot and winter is cold inland. At dusk in Summer, a phenomenon called “Higo evening calm” occurs, in which the area becomes calm. The Amakusa region has an oceanic climate, and the coastal area is famous as the northernmost point of coral reefs. There is a basin in the Kuma region in the south, and it seems that summers are hot and winters are cold. The Aso region surrounded by Asogairin mountain has a mountainous climate, and it is relatively cool in summer. In winter, the temperature drops to below freezing, and it seems that snow can be seen. Precipitation is high in Kuma and Aso, especially near Mt. Aso, reaching more than that in a year. This abundant rain brings water sources to various parts of the prefecture and provides vitality to moisturize the fields and people. In Prefecture, heavy rains occur during the rainy season, and heavy and torrential rains are likely to occur due to the hot and humid southwestern air currents coming from the East China Sea. About two-thirds of the Yatsushiro coastal area seems to be reclaimed new land. In this area, small rivers such as the Kuma River, Hi River, and Sunagawa, which are one of the three major rapids in Japan, pour into the Shiranui Sea. It seems that it is. It was when Kiyomasa Kato, who is famous as a warlord and a civilian, came to Higo as a nation, and even if the feudal lord replaced Mr. Hosokawa, he married Yatsushiro chamberlain Matsui. There is also a military significance as an avant-garde base for Mr. Shimazu of the Satsuma domain, and since he was given the right to reclaim the area near the mouth of the Kuma River, it seems that there are many new areas from the vicinity of the former Yatsushiro town to Hinagu town. In particular, the clan seems to have planned to develop a large new land in the three counties of Yatsushiro, Shimomashiki, and Uto as a remedy for the clan's financial tightness during the period of culture and civil affairs. At that time, Mr. Ryohei Kanokogi, who was appointed as Nozu Tenagaso village headman (Ryuhoku Town, “Kagami Town”, etc.), is still famous for opening 400 towns and 700 towns. It is a village shrine in the modern shrine. The deity is Kiyomasa KATO-Ko. If you worship, you can get a red stamp. Benefits include family safety, business success, civil engineering and construction, and both Bunbu and Budo. Kagami Town, Yatsushiro City is a land opened by reclamation, with about 80% of the total area reclaimed from the sea. It is said that the reclamation work near Kagami Town began around 1688-1704 under the Kumamoto feudal lord Hosokawa in the Edo period. It seems that Mr. Taira prayed to the Holy Spirit of Kiyomasa-Ko as a pioneer of civil engineering work and newly reclaimed rice field development when he approached the construction. And with his son Mr. Kennosuke and others, it is reported locally that he succeeded in three major reclamation works of 100 towns, 400 towns, and 700 towns from 1805 to 1822. In 1822, after the construction was completed, he solicited a spirit from the Jyoike Mausoleum of Honmyoji Temple, which enshrines Kiyomasa-Ko, and built a temple as a guardian deity of a new area in order to reward the blessing of Kiyomasa. Known by the name of “Seishoko”, it was originally a shrine temple for both Shinto and Buddhism, but in 1870, it was changed to a Shinto festival by Ordinance Distinguishing Shinto and Buddhism, and it seems that it was lined up at the village shrine. The Jyoike Mausoleum was also changed to a Shinto shrine in the Meiji era, and seems to be the current Kato Shrine in Chuo Ward, Kumamoto City. He was mourned for his virtues and is now enshrined at Bunsei Shrine in Kagami Town, Yatsushiro. It is said that the tombs of the father and son of Kanokogi Ryohei and Kennosuke remain as historic sites in Kagami Town. The annual festival is September 24th, which is the annual autumn festival. Higo big shinto music : Large grand kagura performance at Ise, Shinko-shiki procession, Shinme, shrine maiden dance, etc. are dedicated, and in recent years, it seems that local children have held portable shrines and judo competitions. In addition, it seems that various structures using rush, a special product dedicated from each district, will appear. In addition, there are festivals on February 24th and July 24th, and it seems to be crowded with stalls. Also, on January 15th every year, it seems that a porridge ritual is held to tell the story of the crops of the year. I heard that there are Kaizu Shrine (Ichikishimahimejin) and Wago Shrine (Watatsumi Ogami) in the precincts. Currently, road approaching a shrine is a roadway commonly known as “Baba street”, but it seems that the large entrance gate, which was built across the road in the Taisho era, retains its remnants. Most of them have been knocked down by several typhoons in recent years, but it seems that large ginko also shows beautiful autumn leaves in autumn, making the local people feel the season. “Hikawa Town, Yatsushiro District” is located in the northern part of the Yatsushiro area, almost in the center of Kumamoto prefecture, about 30 km south of Kumamoto city. It borders Uki City in the north and Yatsushiro City in the south. A second-class river Hikawa flows from east to west in the center of the town, and with National Highway No. 3 running from north to south as the boundary, forests and hills in the east, and Shiranui reclamation that is famous throughout the country as “Hachirogata in the west” in the west. It is a town with a total area of ​​33.36 km2 with a flat area including the beginning. “Banpeiyu” : It is famous as a kind of Pomelo which is said to be the largest fruit in the world.It weighs about 2 kg, and the larger ones weigh more than 3 kg. It is about 20 cm in diameter and is about the size of a child's head. Kumamoto Prefecture is famous as the only production area in Japan, and Yatsushiro is a famous production area. I heard that Banpeiyu was introduced in areas with a warm climate around 1951. Cultivation became popular in the 1970s, and currently it produces more than 80% of the prefecture as a whole. It seems that it begins to bloom from mid-April to early May every year. Other citrus fruits, such as Citrus grandis, amanatsu (Citrus natsudaidai) , and Hassaku oranges, must be pollinated to produce fruit and are mainly artificially pollinated. The flowers bloom for a day, and the farmers chase after the bulging buds and perform the mating work at once. It is necessary to pluck the buds before flowering in order to make a good flower. When the pollination work is finished and the small fruits start to grow, hang small bags one by one on the ones grown in the open field. It plays a role in protecting fruits from an early stage so that they are not affected by diseases and pests. From early to mid-July, large bags are placed on both open-field and greenhouse-grown fruits that have grown vigorously. Furthermore, a special water-repellent sheet is put on it. The property of liquid is easy to evaporate at room temperature. Ingenuity is made to prevent the surface of the fruit from getting sunburned.In order to prevent the large Banpeiyu from falling naturally or due to a typhoon, preparations are made for branching (Hanging branches with strings). In mid-November, about a month later, we will start removing the bags that were covered for the harvest. It seems that the whole fruit is harvested by choosing from those that are colored yellow by about 70 to 80%. The open field is from January to early February. The house is open from late November to mid-January. Instead of shipping immediately, it seems that they will be taken to another greenhouse where they will be stored for about 10 days(In order to mature the bluish bottom to yellow, the balls are turned upside down and exposed to sunlight evenly. Finish with soft flesh with increased sugar content: Lined up in a plastic greenhouse. In today's world, humans rarely see each other, but they are kindly close to each other.). Sorted by appearance and size at three fruit sorting plants in the Yatsushiro area. After carefully packing the boxes, they are shipped to Kyushu, Kanto and Kansai. From November to January, it is mainly used for gifts, and from February to April, it is distributed nationwide with the original taste of the variety. Marmalade, jam, and jelly with an elegant taste are sold at the local product hall and are popular. Candied zabon pickles have long been popular with a wide range of people. It lasts for a long time, so it's okay for 1-2 months at room temperature. Not only can you lightly dry the peeled skin and enjoy it as a bath salt, but you can also expect a beautiful skin effect. It seems that the first fruit selection of “Benpeiyu”, a specialty of the Yatsushiro region, which is one of the world's largest citrus fruits, was held on November 29, 2021 at the JA Yatsushiro Fruit Selection Center (Buiwara Shimo Town, Yatsushiro City). It is popular as a gift for the year-end and New Year holidays, and is shipped all over the country. This fruit is a kind of pomelo, and the popular 2L size seems to have a diameter of 19 to 21 cm and a size of about 2 kg. About 80 houses are cultivated, and about 3500 bundles per day will be shipped mainly to Kanto and Kansai. The first sale in 2021 was held on December 2nd. It seems that mature fruits were brought in one after another by truck on this day, and the grades were sorted according to size and appearance. I heard that it will ship about 200,000 bundles by March 2021 and aim for sales of around 125 million yen.

As one of the recommended citrus varieties in Kumamoto prefecture, the more it is encouraged only in the Yatsushiro region, the higher the commercial value of the fruit, and it greatly contributes to the development of regional agriculture. It has a high-quality scent and a long shelf life, and it is customary to decorate the alcove or entranceway for a while, enjoy the appearance and scent, and then eat it. It is also used in pastries such as jelly with pulp and candied fruit.

Kumamon was first unveiled in the campaign “Kumamoto Surprise” that was launched when the Kyushu Shinkansen was fully opened, but it seems that the designer who was asked for the logo of the campaign actually proposed it as a bonus. That is the mascot that represents Japan now. For utilization, “PR business registration” and “license application” to Kumamoto prefecture are required. Design: Manabu Mizuno (produced by Kundo KOYAMA (born in Amakusa City, Kumamoto Prefecture)), Height: Approx. 200 cm, Weight: Approx. 100 kg, Gender: Boy, Designated date: March 5, 2010, Designated by: Kumamoto Prefectural Office.

On January 6, 2022, Benpeiyu, a specialty of Yatsushiro produced in 2021 of the previous year, departed for Hong Kong. It seems that the departure ceremony was held at the Yatsushiro Fruit Sorting Center. This year marks the eighth year of exports to Hong Kong, and it seems that they are being sold at 12 local Aeon Stores stores. This year, 32 high-quality paulownia boxes containing tatami mats 3L balls and 2100 bundles of Lbundle (350 cases with 6 bundles) were shipped from Yatsushiro Port. The shipped fruits will be sold as gifts from January 20th to February 1st at the Hong Kong New Year's Spring Festival.

Agricultural Labor Force Support Center / Sakurajima Net 21-In the Kagoshima Prefectural Agricultural and Rural Promotion Association, the scale of agricultural corporations is expanding to cope with the labor shortage in the agricultural field due to population decline and aging. On April 25, 2018, Kagoshima Prefecture will provide comprehensive support for securing a labor force, such as introducing agricultural human resources necessary for diversification and measures to reduce the labor force using AI, etc. It seems that they have set up an “Agricultural Labor Support Center”. The outline of the business is to hold liaison meetings, unify recruitment and job search information, match, study mechanisms that complement each other's labor force such as contracted agricultural work, collect and provide information on smart agriculture such as labor-saving machines and IoT, and foreign technical intern training system. Information gathering and provision such as, and other necessary matters for securing a labor force.

The main business contents are discussion meetings with related organizations, workshops on technical intern training programs for agricultural corporations, consultation response, information provision and collection from agricultural corporations in the prefecture (as needed).

Internationalization of agriculture. As it is said that the movement of the world is directly linked to the agricultural production site, it is already globalized. Extremely detailed agricultural observations from an international perspective, such as the shapes of raw materials and products, processes such as production, sales, distribution, and consumption, are indispensable for management strategy. As for the structure of the bearers of agricultural production, the composition of aging and mixed living in rural areas and the shortage of bearers can be seen in most agricultural municipalities nationwide. It's not something that started now. It is positioned as a premise in every municipality. Pursuing the safety of agricultural products, the demand for safe agricultural products such as reduced pesticides and reduced chemical fertilizers is becoming more and more interesting to consumers year by year. Furthermore, in terms of policy, a system to respond to them, such as the revision of the JAS Law, has been institutionally established.  Combined with that, the health and nature orientation of city dwellers can be mentioned. In order to maintain health, not only the pursuit of safe agricultural products as food, but also the movement toward nature for mental health and the return to nature are becoming prominent at the citizen level. The fact that agriculture is being pursued as a medium, such as the use of tourist farms and tourism, is increasing. Food, Agriculture and Rural Area Basic Law: 1999 Law No. 106. Agricultural Policy Basic Law to replace the Agricultural Basic Law. Promote comprehensive and systematic measures related to food, agriculture and rural areas, improve the stability of people's lives and sound the national economy. Defined basic principles and basic plans for the purpose of achieving various developments. (Sustainable development of agriculture) Article 4: Regarding agriculture, the importance of the function of supplying food and other agricultural products and the multi-functionality of agriculture. Agricultural natural circulation function (agriculture) is established, and a desirable agricultural structure is established by efficiently combining these according to the characteristics of the region. Agricultural activities depend on the circulation of organism-mediated substances in the natural world, and the function to promote them must be maintained and promoted to achieve sustainable development. Rural promotion: Article 5 In the case of rural areas, food and other agricultural products possessed by agriculture are considered to play a role as the basis for the sustainable development of agriculture because agriculture is carried out in the places of living of local residents including farmers. In order for the supply function and multi-functionality of the agricultural system to be properly and fully exerted, it must be promoted by improving agricultural production conditions, living environment, and other welfare. Nowadays, the framework of agricultural policy is undergoing a major shift, and the policy of unifying agricultural production based on the old law has been legally developed, including stable food supply and revitalization of rural areas. Naturally, the method for realizing the idea will also change. In particular, the master plan, which obliges local governments to formulate, promptly requests a plan and a check of the results for the realization of the idea. Also, a direct payment system for mountainous areas. At the start of, it is one of the main measures based on the Food, Agriculture and Rural Law, and it seems that the way of thinking is different from the conventional subsidy project. Consistency with the subsidy system so far and securing the initiative of the local government, Creating a consensus on the target area is an issue. First of all, it is tolerant to grasp the future direction of agriculture and rural areas from a global perspective. By accurately analyzing the agricultural situation in the area, careful counting analysis and the intention of the “region” Not only understanding but also analytical ability is required. The key to the future is to introduce the most suitable farming system rooted in the region. In addition to the conventional agricultural policy planning based on production. , Reconstructing agricultural and rural policies from the perspective of daily life.

【Major features】
Kagoshima Izumi Agricultural Cooperative established a wide-area merger JA in 1992 with 2 cities, 4 towns and 10 agricultural cooperatives leading the prefecture. In addition, due to the merger of cities, towns and villages in March 2006, the jurisdiction cities, towns and villages became Izumi City, Akune City and Nagashima Town, and became 2 cities and 1 town. Kagoshima Prefecture, which is located at the southernmost tip of Honshu, cultivates fava beans by taking advantage of the warm weather in the tropical sun. It was introduced in the Yonenotsu area early in the prefecture in 1969, and it seems that it started open-field cultivation to be shipped from April to May. In the jurisdiction, it is positioned as a priority item for open-field vegetables, and it seems that it is cultivated in the entire area centering on Izumi City and Akune City. The Beans Subcommittee was established in March 1999 as a producer organization, and was designated as a prefecture brand item in June of the same year. It seems that the Beans Subcommittee is playing a central role in promoting efforts to stabilize production, including expansion of co-marketing activities and thorough cultivation management, and is working to strengthen the foundation of the production area. It seems that the majority of the elderly are elderly, but fava bean is said to take 450 hours to finish cultivation after sowing from September to October, but it is a laborious crop, but it is a skilled crop with cultivation know-how cultivated over many years. Seems to be enthusiastically cultivating. Especially in the cultivation of fava bean, it seems that it is extremely difficult to set up pillars as it grows and to stretch the net as it grows. It seems that most of the cultivation is done in the open field in the jurisdiction, but it seems that some producers are working on the cultivation in the greenhouse. The average cultivated area per house is 15 a to 20 a, and the variety seems to be one inch in Lingxi. In addition, we are enthusiastically working on recording production history and recording how pesticides are used, aiming for safe and secure cultivation. However, looking at the changes in shipment quantity and area, it seems that the shipment quantity may decrease more than the decrease in area. In addition, the shipping period is from April to May, and it seems that the peak is especially from the middle of April to the consecutive holidays in May. For short-term centralized shipping, a fruit sorting plant (fruit sorting facility) was constructed at JA headquarters and started operation in April 2002 with the aim of reducing the labor of farmers such as boxing as much as possible and unifying quality. Seems to be there. First, the farmer transports the harvested, sheathed fava bean to the fruit sorting plant in a container by 10 am. The average daily carry-in seems to be 20 containers per house. There are three sorting standards, L, M, and S. L has 3 balls in one sheath, M has 2 balls, and S has 1 ball, and the overall ratio is 40% and 30%, respectively. , It seems to be about 10%. After sorting the fruits, they are stored in a pre-cooler until delivery, and truck transportation seems to be particularly particular about quality, such as using low-temperature vehicles. Thanks to such efforts, it seems that the market has a good reputation for having a good shelf. It will be delivered the day after the fruits are selected, and it seems that they will be delivered to the markets of Fukuoka, Chugoku and Shikoku on the second day, Osaka, Chukyo and Kanto on the third day. In terms of sales, we select shipping destinations and focus on shipping mainly in the Kanto and Chukyo regions. With the operation of the fruit sorting facility, we are focusing on improving the co-selection rate and making the quality uniform, and it seems that we are focusing on selling fava bean, which has been designated as the Kagoshima brand(Group: JA Ibusuki (Kagoshima City, Ibusuki City, Minamikyushu City) JA Kagoshima Izumi (Akune City, Izumi City, Nagashima Town) Vetches, one of the oldest beans in ancient Egypt and West Asia It was cultivated in Japan, but it is thought that it came to Japan in the 8th century via China. It is said that it was named fava bean because the beans face the sky. When the pods are green, the beans are taken out and boiled in salt for eating, and the dried ones are also used as raw materials for boiled beans, soy sauce beans, and sweet natto.). Kagoshima Prefecture Izumi Central Livestock Market: The number of Japanese black cattle traded in 2017 was 2085, down 0.7% from the previous year. While there are many livestock markets where the number of livestock traded is declining nationwide, the number of livestock traded has maintained at a level exceeding 2000 since FY2014. Regarding the trading situation, in December 2017, the market has stopped declining the number of shipments in recent years. The number of breeding cows under the jurisdiction of Kagoshima Izumi Agricultural Cooperative is on the rise, but as the number of producers shifting to integrated management has also increased, calves listed on the market may remain flat for the time being. It seems that there was. In the same market, a calf fair (if a local producer purchases a calf selected by the calf fair, a subsidy will be given to the producer who purchased it) is held before the start of the competition, and it is excellent. It seems that efforts are being made to select a new calf as a candidate for successor and leave it in the area, and to maintain the breeding base. I have heard that Izumi City, where the market is located, and its neighboring areas were originally active in fattening management, and that efforts for integrated management were the earliest in Kagoshima Prefecture. It seems that the breeding and breeding technology has been refined and stable management has been carried out by the producers who have been engaged in integrated management since the calf price became high as at that time. In addition, Nagashima Town, which is next to Izumi City, is also an area where breeding management is thriving, but it seems that young successors are eager to expand the scale by expanding the barn. The breeding cows were able to maintain and increase their heads with a head increase incentive (a supplementary project for beef cattle management stability measures implemented by the Organization (promotion of core bearer training and head increase). If the number of breeding cows is increased, 8 per cow A subsidy of 10,000 yen or 100,000 yen is provided.) And a subsidy for cattle construction (a subsidy project carried out by the Kagoshima Prefectural Federation of Economic and Agricultural Cooperatives), and it is estimated that the results of these efforts have been achieved. JA Kagoshima Izumi seems to operate a breeding experiment center with about 400 breeding cows. The calves produced are shipped to the market, and it seems that they also play a role in maintaining the number of listed calves in the market. In addition, the center will hold demonstration exhibits of new technologies such as cow pedometers and nursing robots, and will breed and train JA Kagoshima Izumi staff to support the maintenance of the production base in areas where the business is going out of business due to aging. It seems that they have the role of learning management skills and arranging them in the area. I also heard that many buyers are local fattening producers. While the number of producers of starch raw materials and the harvested area are steadily decreasing, in Akune City, Kagoshima Prefecture, the production of starch raw materials is set as the pillar of management, and the regional JA Kagoshima Izumi Agricultural Cooperative and starch manufacturing business. There are people who are working with people and government agencies to improve cultivation techniques to ensure stable yields. In the past, sweet potato starch was produced not only in the Kyushu region but all over the country, and it seems that nearly 2,000 manufacturing plants were operating at its peak, but the production of cornstarch made from cheap imported corn will increase. As a result, as of 2018, it seems that only 15 factories remained in Kagoshima prefecture. The number of sweet potato producers for starch raw materials has been declining every year from 10,537 houses produced in 2007, and it seems that it has dropped to 4,537 houses in 2017, which is less than half. In addition, the harvested area has been on a downward trend, although it fluctuates due to the demand for shochu that competes with the raw material suppliers, and has decreased by about 25% in about 10 years, but the harvested area per house is 2007. I heard that there was an increasing trend from the annual production of 63 a to the 2017 production of 109 a. By age group, about 70% of the producers are in their 60s or older, and most of them are older, and it seems that there is concern that the production base of sweet potatoes for starch raw materials will be weakened. In addition, 2017 production seems to have reached record low yields and starch production due to delays in planting due to low temperatures in early spring and poor growth due to unseasonable weather such as typhoons after September. While the survival of the sweet potato starch industry, which is a traditional food in Kagoshima Prefecture, is in jeopardy, young producers have positioned sweet potatoes for starch raw materials as a pillar of management and are aiming for further expansion in the future. In Nagashima Town, which is under the jurisdiction, production of potatoes is actively carried out, but it seems that there are concerns about the shrinking of the production area due to the labor shortage due to the aging of the producers. The town is an island located in the northernmost part of Kagoshima prefecture. It is connected to the Satsuma Peninsula by the Kuronoseto Ohashi Bridge. It consists of 27 large and small islands such as Nagashima, Shoura Island, Ikara Island, and Shishi Island. The area is 116.2 km2, and it became the current Nagashima Town in Izumi District due to the merger with Azuma Town in 2006. It has a warm climate and has red soil rich in minerals, and is famous as a region where agriculture and fisheries are thriving, supporting the foundation of Japanese agriculture. In the town, beans such as fava bean, fruit peas, and snow pea were cultivated, but it seems that the cultivation technique of broad beans was adopted from Nagasaki prefecture in the 1975s and it began to be cultivated in earnest from the 1985s. In the early Heisei era, a potato subcommittee was established in the former Nagashima Town and the former Azuma Town respectively. The unit price of potatoes is lower than that of beans, but on the other hand, it has high labor productivity and can be produced relatively stably without suffering from the typhoon season, so it seems that cultivation in Nagashima Town has become widespread. In addition, the potatoes made from red clay, which is a characteristic of the town, contain a lot of minerals, iron, vitamin C, etc., and are shipped immediately without being stored for a long time after shipping, so the freshness is high, and the market and consumers. Highly evaluated for quality. It is also certified as a “Kagoshima brand(Organizations: JA Kagoshima Izumi (Nagashima Town), JA Kagoshima Kimotsuki (Minami Osumi Town, Kinko Town), JA Amami Tokunoshima Business Headquarters (Tokunoshima Town, Isen Town), JA Amami Amagi Business Headquarters (Amagi Town), JA A Mami Wadomari Business Headquarters (Wadomari Town), JA Amami Famous Business Headquarters (China Town). It goes without saying that it was an important food crop for the Incas. I heard that it was around the 16th century that it was brought to Europe by the Spaniards who invaded the Incas and then came to Japan. It is said that a Dutch ship entered Nagasaki from the port of Jagatra in Java. It is rich in vitamin C and potassium, which are three times as much as apples, as well as minerals such as magnesium and phosphorus, and is an excellent agricultural product that is said to have saved sailors during the great voyage from scurvy. This brand boasts beautiful colors and smooth skin. The secret of this beautiful skin lies in the red clay. In Okinoerabu, Tokunoshima, and Nagashima Town, spring assessments were shipped ahead of the rest of the country and are highly regarded as “a product that calls for spring.”)” in Kagoshima prefecture as an agricultural product whose production volume and quality meet certain standards. In terms of potato yields by municipality in 2018, Nagashima Town was 22nd in Japan with 26,600 tons, and excluding Hokkaido's municipalities with different shipping times, it was second only to Unzen City in Nagasaki Prefecture, making it one of the leading production areas in Japan. Seems to be there. In recent years, it is clear that there are concerns about the shrinking of production areas due to labor shortages such as leaving farms due to the aging of producers. If the harvest is delayed and the timing of shipment overlaps with the subsequent production area, the price will drop, so it seems that securing a labor force during the harvest season, when labor is concentrated, is an important issue. Regarding the market price of potatoes, the price tends to decrease when Hokkaido, which accounts for the majority of domestic potato production, has a good harvest, and when it has a poor harvest, the price tends to rise, and the price seems to be unstable depending on the year. In particular, potatoes are shipped to the market mainly in Tokyo and the Chukyo region rather than in Kagoshima prefecture, and it seems to be one of the important production areas of “new potatoes” in the spring. In addition, in the prefecture, we are working on relay shipping by taking advantage of the geography spreading from north to south, and it seems that continuous shipping is being carried out from December to May between the Nansei Islands and the mainland of the prefecture. The JA, which is located in Nagashima Town, which is located in the northernmost part of the prefecture, has a peak shipment period from April to May, and seems to be the last production area in the prefecture in the production area relay. As of February 2019, the number of members of the JA's Red clay potato Subcommittee is 704. The acreage is declining as the number of producers decreases, and the sales volume seems to be increasing and decreasing repeatedly between 10,000 and 15,000 tons. The sales amount has increased or decreased significantly due to the influence of crops from other production areas, but it seems that in 2020, due to the poor harvest in Hokkaido, it was on a 160% increase from the previous year. While the number of club members in their 40s and 50s is declining, the number of club members in their 60s and above is flat to increasing, and it seems that the Red clay potato Subcommittee is also aging. Due to the topography of the island, there are many small fields, and the average planted area of ​​the club members is about 50 a, so it is difficult to improve efficiency by introducing a large machine that can consistently perform from digging of potatoes to harvesting. At present, it seems that one worker operates a potato digging machine at the time of harvesting, and at least three workers pick up the dug up potatoes. Therefore, it is important to secure a labor force in order to maintain the production volume by the current harvesting method, and the sales unit price fluctuates depending on the crops of other production areas. Seems to be the background to concentrate labor during the period when prices are high to secure income. In response to consultations from union members, the JA obtained permission for a paid employment agency business in April 2011 as part of efforts to secure personnel during the harvest season, and established the Kagoshima Izumi Agricultural Cooperative Paid Employment Agency. It seems that this agency is recruiting job seekers through JA's public relations papers and newspaper inserts, and matching with farmers who have requested introduction of farmers such as planting, management, and harvesting of agricultural products. I heard that the role is limited to employment mediation, and that the agricultural machinery used during work is basically the property of the client farmer. Regarding the potato harvesting work, which is the main employment agency, it seems that the labor required for the same period will be concentrated throughout Nagashima Town in order to ship it before the production area is switched to the subsequent production area where the unit price is high. In the work introduction, there are also conditions that should be considered when connecting the two, such as the situation that it is difficult to introduce heavy work to job seekers registered for light work, and the case where the workable date for each job seeker is not known until just before. It seems that there are many. For this reason, the farmers that can be introduced differ depending on the job seeker, and detailed matching work is required, so it seems that one person in charge of the JA Farming Support Department is working exclusively all day during the harvest time of the potato. Although the producers are aging in the Red clay potato subcommittee, the fact that the planted area and sales volume of potatoes have only decreased slightly seems to be largely due to the efforts of the JA staff to support employment. In addition to the employment agency, it seems that they are taking on various challenges such as requesting agricultural support from a local agricultural high school and cooperating with welfare facilities. In recent years, it has accepted foreign technical intern trainees and undertakes agricultural work contracts, and it seems that 10 trainees were involved in the harvesting work of potatoes at that time. It seems that the trainees tried to be able to engage in work throughout the year, such as working at the JA fruit sorting plant outside the harvest time of potatoes. To reiterate, it is essential to secure human resources in order to maintain the production area, but since it is difficult for individual farmers to tackle the problem of securing a concentrated labor force in a short period of time, the JA's employment support efforts are It plays a major role in maintaining the production area. Let's introduce this product again. In 1970, “Nishiyutaka potato” was artificially copulated with his father “Cho Type No. 65” at the Nagasaki Prefectural Agriculture and Forestry Center Aino Potato Center with “Degima” as his mother (Saikai No. 15). In 1978, it was registered as a variety as “Bareisho Norin No. 23”. In addition, it is suitable for warm southwestern regions and has excellent fertility. Expected to be cultivated and harvested 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 : 疫病の抵抗性主働遺伝子」青枯病(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.

Leaf symptom in infected strains is very slight or non-existent and may be difficult to distinguish during the growing season. Similar diseases that cause necrotic lesions on tubers include bacterial diseases such as Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. Sepedonicus and Pseudomonas solanacearum. It seems that it can be distinguished by the fact that leakage is seen. In addition, the lesions appear to be amorphous in the symptoms of potato virus (PVY) and tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV).). 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. Then, I will describe the inside of the JA jurisdiction though it is simple. “Izumi City”, As the northwestern part of Kagoshima prefecture. The location is 130 degrees 14 minutes to 130 degrees 30 minutes east longitude and 31 degrees 58 minutes to 32 degrees 10 minutes north latitude. Akune, Satsumasendai, and Statsuma Town on three sides of the land. It borders Isa City and Minamata City, Kumamoto Prefecture, and faces the Yatsushiro Sea(Umi zato (monster which appears at sea) and shiranui (mysterious lights on the sea) (Yokai) are considered to have their origins in yorigami worship- Shiranui Sea)to the northwest.

The yashiro district of shunan city was designated as a national natural monument in 1955 as “Yashiro Grus monacha Temminck, 1835(Hooded crane)and its destination”. Izumi City was designated as a national special natural monument in 1952 as “Kagoshima Prefecture's vines and their destinations”. The plan is to transfer Izumi's Protective Crane to Yatsushiro, worried about the decrease in the number of cranes coming. First transferred in February 2006.

It borders Izumi City in the east and Satsumasendai City in the south. A town centered on the Akune port of the Takamatsu river estuary, where the shipping industry and commerce have prospered as a key point for sea and land transportation since ancient times. A beautiful coastline of about 40 km facing the East China Sea. The flat land opens on the coast of the Yatsushiro Sea and forms a vast paddy field in Izumi City(It is relatively warm and has long daylight hours in the Izumi area. The coastal areas and the hills in the southeast are slightly colder and have somewhat shorter daylight hours.). In the mountainous area, cultivated land opens in steps at the foot of the mountain, and the hillside is used for orchards, tea gardens, and upland fields. Akune Oshima, which floats about 3 km offshore, is known as a mecca for swimming and fishing, and is visited by many tourists every year. The Kuroshio Current, which washes the coast, grows subtropical plants everywhere, and agriculture and fisheries that take advantage of the warm climate are also thriving. Many high-quality fresh and processed products are the unified brand of “Akune-umaine-shizendane”. This is shipped nationwide, and the special product “Akune Bontang(Fruits were presented when Captain Xie Pomelo's merchant ship in fuzhou, china was washed ashore at Akune Port in 1771.)boasts one of the largest production volumes in Japan.

Nagashima has been open since ancient times, and the Kofun culture was in full bloom. In the Kamakura period, Nagashima was owned by Mr. Nagashima under the name of the place. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties(Southern and Northern Dynasties (Vietnam)), he built Dozaki Castle and was active as a sea powerhouse until the Warring States period. In 1565 (Eiroku 8), Mr. Shimazu attacked Nagashima, and on March 24, Dozaki Castle fell. Previously it was Higo, but since then it has become Shimazu territory and now belongs to Satsuma. In the Edo period, Nagashima-go, one of the outer castles of the Satsuma domain, was located on Nagashima, and the Meiji era was reached within Peace. 1871: Haihan-chiken (the feudal domain system was abolished and the prefectural system was introduced.): Nagashima belongs to Kagoshima prefecture. Enforcement of municipal system, 1889 : Nagashima was divided into two villages, east and west.

In addition, Nishi-Nagashima Village was renamed Nagashima Town on January 1, 1960, and the town administration was enforced. On March 20, 2006, Azuma Town and Nagashima Town merged. An island blessed with abundant nature and a warm climate, consisting of the main island of Nagashima, Ikara, Shoura, Shishi and 23 other large and small islands. The Sea is endlessly blue and bright light shines down. And people are full of soft smiles. What is wonderful is that Japanese amberjack(Seriola quinqueradiata Temminck et Schlegel, 1845)farming is famous as the best in Japan. Also, as the birthplace of Citrus unshiu, citrus cultivation is also popular. In addition, due to its unique red clay, potatoes and sweet potatoes with good quality sweetness are also famous. The scenery of beautiful Terraced fields and the blue sea will give your heart peace and excitement - “Farmstay with agricultural experience and cooking Hatto soup (A local specialty food of Tome-city ) ” : Nagashima Town Countryside stay council. From the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries variety registration website, application number 16479, application date 2004/03/12, application publication date 2004/12/17, registration number 14415, registration date 2006/08/22, breeder Duration of rights 30 years, extinction date of breeder's rights Mr. Koichi Oono (Wakimoto, Akune City, Kagoshima Prefecture): Name and address of cultivar registrant Mr. Koichi Oono. This variety is a sport of “Shiranui”, which is a citrus that matures in early March in the growing area (Akune City, Kagoshima Prefecture) where the fruit shape is oblate, the fruit is heavy, and the skin color is orange. The appearance of the tree is open, the size of the tree is medium, and the tree vigor is a little weak. The thickness of the shoots is medium, the internode length is short, and the thorns of the shoots are few. The shape of the leaf blade is spindle-shaped, the degree of wavyness is weak, the size of the leaf blade is small, the leaf height is medium, the leaf blade width is narrow, and the sharpness of the net vein is rather clear. The shape of the wing leaf is trace, and the length and thickness of the petiole are medium. The formation of inflorescences is solitary, the weight of flowers (flower buds) is light, the shape of petals is spindle-shaped, the length is short, the width is medium, the color is white, the number is 5, the degree of separation of pollen is separated, The amount of pollen is a little small. Fruit shape is oblate, fruit shape index is slightly small, fruit apex shape is flat, no radial groove and concave ring are present, fruit stem shape is low collar concave, some radial groove is medium. The fruit core is empty, the size is large, the fruit is heavy, the color of the pericarp is orange, the size of the oil vesicles is medium, the density is sparse, the unevenness is convex, and the rough surface of the fruit is slightly rough. , The thickness of the pericarp and the percentage of the pericarp are medium, and the difficulty of peeling is easy. The hardness of the sac is soft, the shape and size of the sac are medium, and the color is dark orange. The juice is abundant, the sweetness is high, the acidity and aroma are medium, the number of seeds is absent, and the number of embryos is polyembryony. The germination period, flowering period and maturity period are in the middle of the growing area in early March. Biennial bearing is medium, no floating fruit occurs, and fruit cracking and storability are medium. Compared to “Shiranui”, the color of the pericarp is orange, etc., compared to “Kiyomi”, the shape of the pericarp is low-colored concave, the color of the pericarp is orange, etc. It is said that distinction is recognized. This variety discovered a sport of “Shiranui” in a breeder's field (Wakimoto, Akune City, Kagoshima Prefecture) in 1997, and since then, it has continued to investigate its characteristics while proliferating, and its characteristics became stable in 2004. It was confirmed that the training was completed. In addition, it seems that the name at the time of filing was “Beni-masaki”. At the Kagoshima Prefectural Agricultural Development Center, a new project type test research project research period 2018 : Outline In heated cultivation, we developed a soil moisture visual meter and a maldori cultivation technology using a hiryu rootstock to produce high-quality fruits. It seems that it aims to ship within the year. In open-field cultivation, we are enthusiastic about developing early cultivation, stable production technology by simple rain protection cultivation, and long-term storage management technology. Around mid-November 2021, Kagoshima Prefecture announced that it had confirmed positive results in a simple bird flu test on hens collected at a poultry farm in Takaono Town, Izumi City. This was the second suspected outbreak at a poultry farm in the prefecture this season. 11,000 birds were bred at a location about 2.5 km west of the poultry farm in Heiwa-cho, the city that occurred on the 12th. At 10:30 am on the 14th, the Hokusatsu Livestock Hygiene Service Center entered and was weakened to 5 dead birds because 23 chicken farms within 3 km from the first outbreak farm were suspected of being infected. It seems that two birds were briefly inspected and three dead birds were confirmed to be positive for type A bird flu. The National Institute of Animal Health (Ibaraki Prefecture) is proceeding with a detailed genetic (PCR) test, and the results will be revealed on the 15th. If the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries suspects that it is highly pathogenic and determines that it is a “pseudo-patient” to be slaughtered, the prefecture will start culling. Within a radius of 3 km, a restricted movement area will be set, and 25 farms in the area will not be able to move chickens and eggs. Within 3 to 10 km, there will be restricted export areas, and 93 farms will be restricted from taking chickens and eggs out of the area. I sincerely hope that the effects of natural disasters, the fight against the natural sciences, and the management and producers will do their best without losing. I think we must reaffirm that even the foods we eat naturally have a food chain and the enthusiasm of the workers involved supports Japanese ingredients.

The stem length of spring crops is about 10 cm shorter than that of Norin No. 1, and it is shorter than “Unzen potato” among the cultivars grown in warm regions, and it seems that it is easy to cultivate because the growth in the late stage of growth is small. It seems that the autumn crop is not much different from Norin No. 1. The number of stems is larger than that of Norin No. 1 and other warm-season varieties in both spring and autumn, but the stems are a little thick and upright for the number of stems, and the grass is a little strong and there is also lodging and breakage due to wind and rain. It seems that there are few. The leaf color is a little darker green than “Dejima potato”. The size of the leaflets is rather thick inside, and tends to arrive a little sparsely. The flowers are white and small, and many of them fall in the buds, and the number of flowers seems to be very small. The anthers do not develop normally and there seems to be almost no pollen. Although it is used for cooking, it does not easily crumble, so it seems to be suitable for stewed dishes such as curry and stew that are heated for a long time, and oden ingredients. It is also used in our favorite Kinpira potato with meat. It seems that the suitability of powdered butterbur sprout, salad and fried mashed potato is slightly inferior to that of “Dejima potato”.

Red clay is a general term for red soil. Most of them are produced by weathering of volcanic ash, and because they are rich in iron, they are reddish (the source is iron oxide as a weathered product of volcanic ash, and the origin of clay is the altered secondary minerals of volcanic glass and volcanic rock fragments. It seems that (mainly allophane) fine particles) are tinged brown to dark red, and in some cases yellowish. The greater the amount of iron, the stronger the redness tends to appear.

It seems that the agricultural college students who used the JA Kagoshima Izumi student support “Izuru-kun Scholarship” left for the first time in 2021. Under the system, repayment is postponed or exempted if certain conditions such as farming are met. The JA created a scholarship in 2019. It seems that it was set up to maintain the production base in the jurisdiction, to alleviate anxiety about farming and to arouse the desire to farm. It seems that students who want to get a new farm or get a job at JA are targeted. This year marks the fourth year. The lovely “Izuru-kun” system name seems to have been taken from the name of JA's mascot character.

The first frost is in late November, and the late frost is from late March to early April, and the frostless region is long. In addition, many typhoons approach and land, which can cause enormous damage to agricultural products, and it seems that farming Among the crops in the prefecture under this situation, the spring potatoes, which are called “new potatoes” in the market, are shipped from April to June, and the harvest begins with Fukue Island in The Goto Islands, and the northwestern part of the Shimabara Peninsula. Move to. And it seems that the final stage will be reached in the Iimori district of Isahaya city on the opposite bank. Both seem to be cultivated in warm areas facing the sea. As of 2014, more than 80% of the handling volume utilizes the designated vegetable price stabilization business of ALIC (Independent administrative institution Agriculture and Livestock Industries Corporation), so risk management when the market selling price falls works. It seems that reproduction was secured. This greatly contributes to the maintenance of production area and quantity, and the shipping period is from November to July, and the main shipping time is from May to June. In the same year, the occupancy rate of Nagasaki potatoes in the Tokyo Central Wholesale Market was 46% in May and 56% in June, and in the Central Wholesale Market in Osaka Prefecture it was 72% in May and 82% in June.

JA Shimabara Unzen, which has jurisdiction over the Shimabara Peninsula located in the southeastern part of the prefecture, was established in April 2001 by the merger of 11 agricultural cooperatives. Especially in the Minamigushi area, most of the area is terraced because there are many steep slopes, and while it is difficult to introduce machines, the productivity of lettuce for processing and commercial use can be effectively utilized in the limited fields throughout the area. It seems that they are making efforts to improve quality. Minamigushi (formerly Minamigushiyama Town was located on the Shimabara Peninsula in Nagasaki Prefecture. It used to belong to Minamitakaki District.) In the area, it seems that open-field cultivation is mainly carried out. The reason is that the climate is particularly warm even in the Shimabara Peninsula, so it is necessary to cover the entire ridge with a non-woven fabric or a lawn cloth after sowing seeds or planting seedlings. It seems that the heat retention and moisture retention are improved, the sprouting is well aligned, and the growth tends to be accelerated. Also, the effects of insect proofing, bird proofing, wind proofing, and frost proofing are expected. It seems that it is possible to reduce labor and cost compared to. Traditionally, lettuce has been shipped for fruits and vegetables. Producers seem to have stabilized their income when they started producing lettuce for processing and commercial use. For processing and commercial use, quality and yield are more important than for fruits and vegetables, and in addition, it seems that they cannot be out of stock due to contract cultivation. For this reason, as a measure against shortages, it seems that cultivation management is thorough, such as planting at least three different varieties such as cold-resistant varieties and disease-resistant varieties, and intensive planting in October. Even so, when there is a risk of shortages due to weather conditions, the Minamikushi district lettuce subcommittee will work together to distribute products for market shipment to processing and commercial use in cooperation with local producers. , It seems that they are making efforts to prevent shortages. Until 2015, lettuce was mainly shipped to the Kyushu market in the same JA, but it seems that it has begun to be shipped to the metropolitan area due to the expansion of sales channels by JA Zen-Noh Nagasaki Prefecture Headquarters. Regarding lettuce production in the Minamikushi area, in recent years, demand for processing and commercial use such as for cup salads at convenience stores has increased, and it seems that shipments are on the rise, along with the market.

【Major features】
Nyu Wenzhou (high sugar type) that I can confirm seems to have the genealogy of Ikiriki system Wenzhou, Owari system Wenzhou, Nyu Wenzhou, Ki no Kuni Wenshu from the original log. I heard that Aoshima Wenzhou is also a sport of the same Owari system Wenzhou. About Nucellar embryony, which was born from Nyu Wenzhou, it seems to be Nucellar embryony. Ki no Kuni Wenzhou seems to inherit the gene of his mother Nyu Wenzhou as it is. The normal shipping time is from late January to early February, and it is a strain called high sugar content with high fruit sugar content. When harvested at the end of the year and stored until around February, a unique flavor is created. The rich flavor that cannot be tasted with other oranges is popular and popular. JA Shimabara Unzen has three cities, Shimabara City, Unzen City and Minamishimabara City, on the Shimabara Peninsula. The Shimabara Peninsula is blessed with natural conditions such as soil and weather, and has high land productivity and labor productivity. It is an agricultural area. The Shimabara Peninsula is a peninsula located in the southeastern part of Nagasaki Prefecture with a circumference of 138.3 km and an area of ​​459.36 km, and the total area seems to occupy 11.2% of the entire prefecture. It seems to consist of the Unzen mountain range centered on Mt. Fugen (1,359 m), the gentle hills of about 24 km east-west and about 32 km north-south, and the plains along the coast. The distribution of agricultural land is poor on flat land, and cultivated land subdivided by slopes is dispersed. The average annual temperature is as warm as 16 degrees Celsius, and there are frost-free areas along the coast. The annual rainfall is 2,000 mm, and the annual sunshine hours are 2,200 hours, which seems to be blessed with good weather conditions. The total number of households in the jurisdiction is 10,099, of which 28.6% (2,890) are full-time farmers (prefecture ratio 18.9%), type 1 part-time farmers are 1,687 houses, and type 2 part-time farmers are 2,690 houses. The area of ​​cultivated land was 12,500 ha, and the ratio of cultivated land was 27.2%, which was higher than 12.6% of the prefecture as a whole. The breakdown of the cultivated area is that the ratio of upland land is 62.0%, which is higher than 52.5% of the whole prefecture, and it can be said that it is an agricultural area centered on upland farming. The JA broccoli seems to be cultivated mainly in Azuma Town, Unzen City. Azuma Town is blessed with abundant pasture and upland fields along the mountains and paddy fields in the plains, and is blessed with warm and rainy climatic conditions. It is a highly productive area. In recent years, large-scale management of broccoli has been carried out due to the improvement of upland infrastructure, and it seems that broccoli is becoming a production area. Nowadays, it seems that broccoli, which is so close to eating habits that no one knows, did not attract much attention about 50 years ago. Broccoli cultivation in Azuma Town seems to have started in the 1970s. At that time, we worked on cultivating multiple items such as Chinese cabbage, pumpkin, cauliflower, etc., including broccoli, but among them, broccoli, whose price is recovering quickly and is stable, seems to have increased the cultivated area. When the upland infrastructure development project (Yamadahara infrastructure development project) started in 1998, it seems that the development of hills, which had been narrow and poorly productive, was promoted, and the production of broccoli was promoted. In addition, I heard that conventional broccoli cultivation is a cultivation system centered on harvesting from the end of the year to the beginning of the year, and it is difficult to ship from April to October. In particular, in order to introduce spring cultivation (April-May), it was necessary to plant in the cold season (January-February), and it seems that it was necessary to raise seedlings and establish a cultivation method in the low temperature period. After that, as a method of securing the growth temperature, it seems that it succeeded in planting by introducing mulch and solid materials, and made it possible to cultivate in the spring. At that time, the Unzen Broccoli Subcommittee had 38 members and an area of ​​about 125 ha. The average area per house is 3.3 ha, which seems to be a large scale for cultivating items. At the time of its inauguration, many producers seemed to have positioned broccoli as part of their complex management, even though the subcommittee, which has many successors who will be responsible for the future. In addition, it seems that the planned shipment and planned sales were difficult, and it did not lead to sales at a stable price, so it was not an attractive item in agricultural management. For this reason, it seems that JA and the subcommittee have begun to work together to train farmers who specialize in broccoli and make them into production areas. It seems that the key to specialization was “labor saving and scale expansion.” It seems that a mechanized cultivation system was established by introducing cell seedling raising and semi-automatic transplanting machines, and by introducing machines such as ridge partial application machines, molding machines, and mulchers in line with the start of the Yamadahara upland field infrastructure development project. In addition, it seems that long-term shipping has become possible by starting spring cultivation. I have heard from acquaintances that these have made it possible to save labor for farmers by diversifying labor and avoid price risks, leading to stable management. Approximately 12 years ago, in 2001, by switching from vertical packing of 3 kg cardboard to horizontal packing of 6 kg cardboard, it became possible to significantly save labor in shipping adjustment work and further expand the scale. Seems to have advanced. At present, the whole amount is jointly selected by JA, and it seems that the producers have become a cultivation system that concentrates on production and harvesting work. Looking at the results in 2012, the average cultivated area of ​​the top 15 shippers was 5.2 ha (the average of the subcommittee was about 3.3 ha), and it seems that the shipment ratio to the shipment volume of the subcommittee was 80%. Specialization was progressing. Also, for producers other than the top shippers, the ratio of broccoli to individual management is steadily increasing, and it seems that the sales performance of the subcommittee has also increased significantly. The subcommittee is focusing on environmentally friendly broccoli cultivation, and in 2001, all members of the subcommittee were involved in the three technologies of Nagasaki Prefecture Eco Farmer (soil preparation, chemical fertilizer reduction, and chemical synthetic pesticide reduction based on sustainable farming methods). It seems that it has obtained the certification (agricultural person who implements the introduction integrally). In particular, pest control is an issue for year-end and spring cultivation that is planted in the summer, but pheromone traps are installed in the fields, and the use of pesticides is suppressed by timely control by prediction and spraying an appropriate amount of pesticides. In addition, by utilizing solid materials, it seems that measures are being taken to reduce pest damage and prevent bird feeding damage without relying on pesticides. As a measure against continuous cropping obstacles (Plasmodiophora brassicae: Many humps of various sizes are formed at the root. It seems that the whole root may be enlarged. The surface of the hump is white and smooth at first, but it turns brown and becomes rough, and eventually rots. False root-knot nematode is bigger than the hump and seems to have a smooth surface. In the above-ground part, the growth declines and the leaf color becomes pale, and the whole plant wilts on a sunny day. If you get sick early, you tend to die in the middle of growth.  In a typical soil infectious disease, this fungus is a so-called absolute parasite that can only grow on the roots of a living host plant by living a parasitic life. The myriad dormant spores formed inside the root hump seem to be able to survive in the soil for several years without activity. The host plant is limited to Brassicaceae. “Radish” does not occur much, depending on the variety. It occurs violently in all other Brassicaceae crops and is presumed to be a common host. From dormant spores, at appropriate temperature and water, flagella form zoospores around the host root that can freely swim in the free water of the soil, reaching the host root and infecting. After infection, it is expected to proliferate and fill in the epidermal cells of the host root to form dormant spores.), soil preparation and prevention of topsoil runoff, it seems that green manure (Solgo) is planted every year after the broccoli planting is completed. In spring cultivation, biodegradable mulch is used as a measure against waste plastic, and the entire subcommittee is working on the reduction of mulch waste at the end of cultivation. In order to thoroughly implement such efforts for safety and security, we hold a regular meeting once a month and a meeting for each variety, and in terms of sales, we consider selling with the trading market twice a year in autumn / winter and spring. It seems that a meeting is being held. By starting the joint selection of all quantities by JA from 2011, it seems that it was possible to build a system where producers can concentrate on production and to prepare an environment for further scale expansion. The co-selection system seems to have contributed greatly to the improvement of the evaluation of the production area by making the quality uniform in terms of sales. The JA and the subcommittee seem to think that the quality evaluation of broccoli is in freshness. With the motto of freshness and trust in the production area, it seems that they have made efforts to maintain and control the product temperature. It seems that members are using tech mirror sheets (insulation coating sheets) to prevent the temperature from rising from harvest to shipment, including the maintenance of pre-coolers for individual producers. Various freshness-preserving bags have been used for the inner bags of corrugated cardboard, but with the freshness-preserving film “P-Plus” introduced in 2006 using MA packaging technology, the freshness of broccoli has been dramatically improved and sold in remote areas. I have heard that it has become possible, and I feel it. However, in the warm season after April, the occurrence of quality accidents such as yellowing during transportation will not disappear, and we may face a situation where the evaluation in the consumption area is lowered, so in the warm season at that time It seems that quality maintenance measures have become an issue. In order to overcome this situation, it seems that from 2011 to 2012, a low-temperature distribution facility was constructed and an ice machine was introduced by utilizing the national treasury subsidy project. It seems that the quality of broccoli shipped by ice stuffing has improved dramatically compared to any measures taken so far, and it is now possible to deliver it to the consumption area while maintaining its freshness. As a result, not only was it differentiated from other production areas, but it seems that it was possible to further expand sales channels such as contract sales. As of 2012, it seems that it had continued to do business with nine companies, mainly in the Kanto market, including markets in the Kansai and Chugoku regions. It seems that all the subcommittees want to meet the needs of the market and retailers, appeal the freshness, and secure more customers by shipping ice-packed products not only during the warm season but throughout the season. In addition to safety and security efforts, it seems that they are making daily efforts to deliver fresh broccoli to consumption, aiming for zero accidents. The Shimabara Unsen Agricultural Cooperative, which supports Japanese agriculture, employs specialized staff to hire farmers for the harvesting of open-field vegetables, which is difficult for the employment labor force to handle on the anniversary because the work is concentrated in a short period of time compared to facility vegetables. I've heard that the support has achieved a certain effect. As a method of securing a short-term labor force such as harvesting open-field vegetables, it seems that they have temporarily hired staff and have organized a new farming support corps for about 6 to 7 years. Compared to the working hours of open-field vegetables and the ratio of various working hours to the working hours, the working hours per 10 ares(100 m2 = 1 dam2)are much lower than the working hours of the facility vegetables, but the ratio of harvesting and preparation work to the working hours is the facility. It exceeds the number of vegetables, and the number of working hours is almost half of the working hours. In addition, facility vegetables have a long residence period and require a relatively uniform labor force, so even when seeking an external labor force, it is possible to hire employees on the anniversary of the year, whereas open-field vegetables are available. Since harvesting and preparation work is concentrated at a specific time of the year, it is necessary to hire short-term workers, and it is difficult to attract part-time workers who desire long-term employment. Although the working hours of open-field vegetables are shorter than those of facility vegetables, it seems that they are more susceptible to the decrease in labor force than facility vegetables in that it is difficult to secure a labor force. The jurisdiction has long formed an open-field vegetable production area, but as the scale of farmers is expanding, it seems that labor shortage at the time of harvest has become an issue for open-field vegetables, which are labor-intensive compared to rice cultivation. Under these circumstances, the former JA Shimabara, which had Shimabara City as its jurisdiction, was inspired by the fact that competing local merchants (fruit and vegetable traders) were evaluated by producers for harvesting contracts for potatoes, and about 26 to 7 years ago. It seems that they organized a digging group (harvesting group) to support the harvesting work. Although the area of ​​open-field vegetables has expanded due to the efforts of the digging team, it seems that other JAs on the Shimabara Peninsula have not introduced similar efforts. In 2008, at the request of producers, the JA will utilize a dispatching company to support the labor force at the time of harvesting for several large-scale farmers in spring and autumn crops. It seems that the model project was carried out with its own funds. However, it seems that the workers dispatched from the dispatched labor company have little experience in farming. Therefore, the year after starting the harvest labor support, Furusato Employment Revitalization Special Grant: Supporting efforts to create employment opportunities for local job seekers, etc. based on the actual situation and ingenuity of the region in the severe employment unemployment situation in the region. In order to do so, the national government will issue a special grant for employment rehabilitation to prefectures and create a fund based on this (fund creation is from 2009 to the end of 2011). Agricultural support corps establishment project: Nagasaki Prefecture has launched a fund project, and the prefecture and JA have signed a consignment contract to hire new staff annually to provide a labor force as a agricultural support corps to farmers who have problems such as labor shortages. Utilizing the “business provided”, the JA has organized the “Nagasaki Agricultural Support Corps” (38 members), which is directly hired as a temporary worker from July 2009. After that, in Unzen City, the same project as Nagasaki Prefecture (Unzen Municipal Agricultural Environment System Development Project) was launched, and since the JA was entrusted with this project, the “Unzen City Agricultural Support Corps” (21 members) from November of the same year.) organization. In organizing the agricultural support corps, the member hired as a temporary worker of the JA will utilize the experience of agricultural work support after the termination of the employment contract for 3 years, and will utilize the experience of agricultural work support, such as new farming, employment to a large-scale production corporation, etc. It seems that he thought that becoming a bearer was one of the purposes. Both the Nagasaki Agricultural Relief Corps and the Unzen City Agricultural Relief Corps have been carried out for three years, and it seems that the efforts have spread throughout the jurisdiction. As an effect of both projects, it became possible to expand the scale of farmers and maintain and expand the scale of production areas by providing free support for work that requires a lot of manpower, such as harvesting open-field vegetables. It seems that it can be mentioned. In addition, the Agricultural Support Corps is responsible for maintaining local farming, such as prompt recovery support for farmers affected by weather disasters, and labor support for farmers who cannot perform farm work due to sudden illness or injury, or for elderly farmers. Seems to have exerted great power. Furthermore, as an effect of the JA, it seems that by dispatching both agricultural support teams to unused and underutilized farmers of the JA project, it was possible to link to the shipment of new JAs such as potatoes and onions. In addition, 14 of the agricultural support members became the leaders of agricultural production in the jurisdiction after the end of the project (8 new farmers, 4 employment at agricultural corporations). This seems to have been a major achievement of both businesses. Since there were many farmers requesting business continuity after the completion of both projects, in April 2012, 38 members were continuously hired to form a “new farming support team” in consultation with Nagasaki Prefecture and three cities in the jurisdiction. It seems. The new farmer's support corps seems to be positioned as a JA utilization business whose main financial source is the usage fee (900 yen per hour (excluding tax)) collected from the farmers who support it. Looking at the activity status of the New Agricultural Support Corps for the three years up to FY2014, it seems that the number of members was 37 and the number of dispatches was 4494 at 7 farming centers. The activities included harvesting outdoor vegetables, which are labor-intensive items such as lettuce, potatoes, onions, and broccoli, as well as planting and managing facility vegetables such as strawberries and tomatoes. Also, during the off-season of vegetables, it seems that they are still devised so that they can work on the anniversary by being involved in the support of JA fruit sorting plant. In the past, when the farmer population was large and the average age was low, it seems that the labor shortage was supplemented throughout the region and the scale of production areas was expanded by the interchange of labor between farmers called join. However, at present, the farmer population is declining due to the aging of the population, and the labor force tends to be in short supply. There seems to be no. It is clear that it is not only large-scale farmers and young farmers, but all farmers in the region that support the scale of production in Japan. In order to permanently maintain and expand the scale of the production area, large-scale farmers may become more labor shortages due to further expansion, and young farmers will eventually become elderly farmers. There is no doubt that the supply of quality labor is essential. However, it seems that it is difficult to secure the short-term employment labor required for labor-intensive items such as open-field vegetables. As of 2018, the JA has jurisdiction over the agricultural products produced, and consists of a total of 225 members, including 6 subcommittees (Japanese radish, carrot, Chinese cabbage, lettuce, fruit vegetables, ginger) and 2 study groups (soft vegetables, strawberry). It seems that it produces and sells about 30 kinds of vegetables a year, mainly in facilities and open-air vegetables throughout the year. In particular, for radish and carrots, it is fully equipped with a large joint fruit sorting plant, and it seems that long-term stable shipments are being carried out from autumn / winter crops to spring crops. What is characteristic is that it actively provides labor support centered on the harvesting of agricultural products throughout the year. At that time, it seems that a total of 46 harvesting workers were dispatched to farmers to harvest, with 25 part-time workers and 5 foreign workers joining from 2020, centered on 16 JA Shimabara Unzen Agricultural Support Corps.In the case of farmer-centered harvesting, the daily yield becomes unstable, and at the same time, the capacity of the fruit sorting facility cannot be fully demonstrated. This is because it seems that stable yields will be realized, and at the same time, the daily fruit sorting capacity of the fruit sorting facility will be fully demonstrated, and it will be possible to stably ship fruits and vegetables for a long period of time. Regarding the cultivation of ginger in the former Shimabara City, it was 21 ha at the time of 2004 (published by the Statistics Department of the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries), but at that time, methyl bromide(CH3Br: At the 2018 Montreal Protocol Conference of the Parties (MOP31), it was designated as an ozone-depleting substance like chlorofluorocarbons, and it is used as an “essential use” for some treatments such as soil fumigation where methyl bromide is indispensable. Is recognized. However, from the viewpoint of international global environmental protection, there has been a movement in recent years that even essential uses should be completely abolished, and in Japan as well, the “national management strategy for methyl bromide for essential uses” has been formulated and odorized. We are working to develop and disseminate alternative technologies for the total abolition of methyl. CH3Br is a colorless gas with a boiling point of 4 ° C at normal temperature and pressure. It is heavier than air and tends to easily liquefy below the critical point. Also, it seems to be odorless except for the chloroform-like odor at high concentration. In air, it is non-flammable except at concentrations in the range of 10-16%, but seems to burn in oxygen. It dissolves only slightly in water, but seems to dissolve well in other common solvents. It seems possible to penetrate through many substances such as concrete, leather, rubber and some plastics. It hydrolyzes into methanol and hydrobromic acid in water, and the rate of hydrolysis seems to depend on pH. It is an effective methylating agent that reacts with amines and sulfur-containing compounds. The majority of metals are pure, dry and inert, but zinc, tin, aluminum and magnesium appear to cause surface reactions in the presence of impurities or moisture. Also, it seems that an explosive reaction with aluminum and dimethyl sulfoxide has been reported. It was famous that it was available as a commercial product as a liquefied gas. The formulation for fumigation of soil seems to include chloropicrin (about 2%) or amyl acetate (about 0.3%) as a warning agent. Other formulations appear to contain up to 70% chloropicrin or other fumigation disinfectants and hydrocarbons as an inert diluent. It seems that 100% methyl bromide is used for fumigation disinfection of products. Further, analytical methods for measuring the concentration of methyl bromide in air, water, soil, food, and animal feed are known. Direct measurements in air and in the field seem to include thermal conductivity gas analysis, colorimetric detector tubes, infrared analysis, and photoionization detectors. The ocean is considered the main source. For GC measurements in water, purge, trap, headspace sampling samples, for normal analysis of CH3Br in food in a suitable container, with ECD of headspace capillaries after extraction with acetone and water. Gas chromatography seems to be recommended. It seems that bromide measurement is also being considered for some of the soil, food, and biological samples that have been converted to bromide. I hear that colorimetric quantification, X-ray spectroscopy, potential difference measurement, neutron activation analysis, gas chromatography, and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) are some of the methods used to measure bromide in various media.)used for soil disinfection was designated as an ozone-depleting substance, and in 2005. Pythium zinziberis(It seems that the ground part of the leaf sheath and the buds become wet brown or dark green. Later, the lesions tend to soften and rot, and the above-ground parts tend to turn yellowish brown and die. The rhizomes turn pale and appear to rot. It seems that white cotton-like mold may grow on the surface of the affected area. The pathogen seems to survive with the residue of the diseased plant. It seems to get sick when planting the affected rhizome. In the year when it rains a lot after June, there is a tendency for the disease to occur more often in fields with poor drainage. It is good to plant disease-free rhizomes without continuous cropping. Also, dig a drainage ditch so that rainwater does not collect in the field.), which is the main disease of ginger, because it was completely abolished in Japan. The cultivated area gradually decreased (cultivated item conversion: spinach, small watermelon, etc.) due to concerns about damage to Takahashi and the slump in prices due to the increase in imported ginger. It seems that it was canceled. Regarding the farmland in the former Shimabara City, although the upland irrigation was maintained, the upland comprehensive maintenance project started in 2014 due to the dispersion of irregular farmland and the deterioration of the conventional irrigation facilities (Since the comprehensive upland field maintenance project (scheduled to continue until 2026 (current plan)) was partially completed in 2013, it became possible to cultivate irrigation in new fields, and although it is not complete, It seems that the cultivated area is currently on a recovery trend because the soil disinfection technology has been replaced by a treatment method using chemicals and the price has become relatively stable due to the increasing demand for domestic ginger. The variety is “Nagasaki Large Ginger” (main production areas are Toishi, Koga, Higashi Nagasaki, Mogi district. Unlike ordinary vegetables that are standardized all year round, it has a unique taste, aroma, and flavor. However, on the other hand, it is a product that is disappearing from the production site because it is a delicate vegetable that is vulnerable to diseases and takes time to cultivate. However, food safety and local ingredients Now that “food education” using ginger is attracting attention, there seems to be a growing movement to review the goodness and safety of traditional Nagasaki vegetables and bring them back to the table as a property of Nagasaki. With the cooperation of agricultural organizations, food-related organizations and consumers, Nagasaki traditional vegetables are expected to play a major role in revitalizing agriculture in Nagasaki and in terms of local production and local consumption). If the house is not heated, the plants are planted from March to April and harvested from August to September. In the case of open fields, planting is done from April to May, and I heard that it is from late October to November. In addition, the house new ginger harvested from August to September is washed, sorted, and boxed by JA fruit sorting workers, and is shipped mainly to the Chugoku / Kyushu market as new ginger. Ginger in Shimabara City, Nagasaki Prefecture is cultivated in abundant water and nature. It is clear that the refreshing flavor stimulates the sense of smell and has an appetite-promoting effect, and also has the effect of promoting metabolism and warming the body. In addition, it is used in many Chinese herbal medicines as a crude drug, and its effects include gastric mucosa protection, gastric health by promoting gastric fluid secretion, promotion of sweating action, colds, and anti-nausea, but its effects are not limited. Gingerol and shogaol, which are pungent ingredients, are abundant in raw ginger, and their strong bactericidal action can be expected to prevent food poisoning in addition to improving the mouth and appetite. In addition, it is highly expected to work to help recovery from fatigue and healing power against diseases by anti-inflammatory action and digestive promotion action. 長崎県 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 “Dejima”, 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. “Shimabara Unzen Japan Agricultural Cooperatives”, The Shimabara Peninsula(138.3 km around the southeast of Nagasaki Prefecture and 459.36 km area occupies 11.2% of the whole prefecture. The Unzen Mountains at the center and a gentle hill area approximately 24 km east-west and 32 km north-south. Mt. Fugendake: 1,359 m, It consists of a plain extending along the coast, and the annual average temperature is mild at 16 ° C. Some areas are frost-free. It's blessed with 2,000 mm of annual precipitation, 2,200 hours of sunshine per year, and weather conditions.), which is in jurisdiction, is blessed with natural conditions such as soil and weather conditions. Shimabara City, Located at the eastern end of the Shimabara Peninsula in the southeast. It covers an area of ​​82.96 km2 and occupies about 18% of the Shimabara Peninsula. In the center is a sloping land that extends to the Ariake Sea on the east side centering on Mt. Mayu (elevation 818.7 m). There is a large-scale collapse trace in 1792 on the eastern slope, and many Nagareyama are distributed from the lower part of the collapse to the sea area around Kujuku island. Behind it is Unzenhugendake, which erupted in 1990 for the first time in 198 years. The lava dome was named “Heiseishinzan” in 1996. The number of farm households accounts for 24% of the prefecture as a whole, and the amount of agricultural output accounts for about 43%. Shimabara City is a representative agricultural area(Recent data). It is a relatively warm area, and although there are paddy fields in the coastal area, upland fields occupy more than paddy fields. Around the Miebard upland field, radishes, carrots, Chinese cabbage, ginger, lettuce, watermelon and other open-field vegetable production areas are formed. Fruit vegetables such as tomato in the summer and house ginger are cultivated in institutional cultivation, and a typical complex management is carried out. Cross-item management stabilization measures target only at eligible and ambitious “principal farmers (certified farmers and village-based farming organizations that meet certain conditions)”, for the stabilization of their farm management, unlike conventional stabilization measures devised for individual commodities of all farmers. It is certified as an Eco farmer and is also working on the Nagasaki Prefecture version of GAP(Sustainable agricultural management for the future as well for environmental protection sustainable. We should ensure that natural resources are managed properly in order to make agricultural development-Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry-Support was provided for initiatives to secure the trust of consumers and stimulate domestic markets by such means as improving the quality control of food products through the introduction of HACCP practices and adoption of ordinary hygiene control in the food industry, rigorous compliance, and voluntary labeling of places of origin of ingredients in accordance with guidelines.(Hazard analysis important control points): Support will be provided to small and medium food manufacturers, etc., by organizing human resource development workshops and providing technical information in order to further promote the improvement of control of food manufacturing processes (through hazard analysis and critical control point (HAACP) procedures).). For management, a field ledger is created and soil analysis is carried out for each stroke. We will work on soil improvement and fertilizer application design in light of past data, and strive to reduce fertilizer to the level of special cultivation. Conduct a planting survey in advance to ensure planned and stable shipments. The Seven Wonders of Shimabara(The exit and entrance, the name of the town is just the opposite.)are wonders taught in Shimabara (the entertainment area in Kyoto City). 島原のシマバライチゴ自生地 - 南千本木町 - 1960年3月22日 : The vine of this strawberry is thin and strong, and extends to a length of 5 m. Also, the thorns of the vine entangle with other things and climb up. It is so overgrown that you can't even set foot in the colony. It blooms in autumn, and tufted, sour fruits ripen red in winter. “Minamishimabara City”, Blessed with a warm climate, moderate rainfall and sunshine hours, it is famous as an area where agricultural products can be easily cultivated. Located in the southeastern part of the Shimabara Peninsula, in the southern part of Nagasaki Prefecture. It borders Shimabara City in the north and Unzen City in the west. Facing the Amakusa area of ​​Kumamoto prefecture across the Ariake Sea, I am deeply moved by the memories I visited once. It has a land containing fertile and abundant groundwater that extends south from the foot of Mt. Unzen, which exceeds 1,000 m. It also has a coastline that faces the Ariake Sea and Tachibana Bay, which are rich in seafood. Agriculture, forestry and fishing are carried out by the residents. Historically, there was a time when Christianity was introduced to this area in the 1560s and Christian culture prospered. The Edict expelling Jesuit missionaries was a prohibition document concerning the mission of Christianity and trade with Spain and Portugal issued by Hideyoshi TOYOTOMI in Chikuzen Hakozaki, in July 24, 1587 : There are many historical heritage sites in the city that show the light and shadow of Christianity in Japan. 1637: Shimabara-Amakusa ikki (Shimabara War): The Shimabara War broke out, lasting two years from 1637 to 1638. In such a situation, the occurrence of Shimabara / Amakusa uprisings led the bakufu to the complete prohibition of Christianity and the complete national isolation that allowed only bakufu-controlled trade. “Hara Castle Ruins” is “Hidden Christian-related heritage of Nagasaki and Amakusa Region” : Registered for UNESCO World Cultural Heritage on June 30, 2018. The shimabara peninsula area has been certified as the first in Japan by the global geopark networks, which is said to be the geological version of the world heritage(Unzen Volcanic Area Geopark: In 2009, with Itoigawa in Niigata and Mt. Toyakousu(Lake toya Mt.usu)in Hokkaido). An area where you can feel the heartbeat of the earth and the history of the earth. “City designated cultural property”, Uchiishibashi group(Kitaarima Town): It was built from the late Edo period to the early Showa period. About 10 arch bridges made of natural stones and cut stones are left in the Arima River system in Kitaarima Town. The construction of the arch bridge requires a high level of technology because the strength of the stones is maintained by the weight of the stones. Natural stones are used for most of the stone bridges such as wall stones. At first glance, it looks like a rough structure, but in reality, it requires more skill to combine stones that are not standard products. I hear that the biggest advantage is that it is relatively easy to procure materials. Since the bridge is also a part of the living road, it requires quick repair. It can be said that the skillful skills of the masons closely supported people's lives. The scenery where the stone bridge is in harmony with the river and fields is also beautiful. We will support the cultivation of ‘Bananas’, which are expected to be new high-profit and high-value-added crops. Liability Company(LLC.), which develops business by utilizing subsidiary aid. We received 100 seedlings from company limited, an agricultural corporation that grows bananas in Kagoshima and Saga. ‘Freeze-thaw awakening method’ : By freezing and thawing growing cells for half a year and applying special treatment, resistance to cold and diseases becomes stronger. The Banana applied this time is pesticide-free and does not use pesticides or cleaning agents, so the skin is thin and the whole skin can be eaten. The sugar content is 25 degrees, which is much higher than the general 15 degrees, and is characterized by its rich sweetness and mellow aroma. About 150 trees can be harvested from one tree, and mature bananas are scheduled to be harvested around the summer of 2021. When it was transmitted, it was around last fall and before my favorite winter. ‘Arima Christian Heritage Museum’ - 南有馬町 - The background behind the 250 years of Christianity's hiding : The process leading to the suppression of Christianity, 1637 : Shimabara-Amakusa riot (Shimabara War) situation is displayed in an easy-to-understand manner. Hei, Minamiarima Town: Seibo Park is an art park that exhibited works in the birthplace of Seibo Kitamura(Graduated from the sculpture department of Tokyo Fine Arts School (currently Tokyo University of the Arts) in 1912. His career In 1908, “Indignation” was selected for the first time at the 2nd Art Exhibition (Bun Exhibition) of the Ministry of Education. He has been exhibiting every year since then, and the 10th “Evening Bell” will be the chief of choice. In 1919 he became a judge for the Japan Fine Arts Exhibition and formed the Hibarasha in the same year. He was a professor at Tokyo Beauty School from 1921 to 1944, and became a member of the Imperial Academy of Fine Arts in 1924 and a member of the Japan Art Academy in 1947. He specializes in heroic human figures, and before the war he worked on equestrian statues of military personnel and statues of great men. After the war, he became a central member of the Japan Fine Arts Exhibition sculpture department, focusing on peace and freedom. In 1951, he was requested by Nagasaki Prefecture to build an atomic bomb monument at the hypocenter of the atomic bombing, and in 1955 he completed the “Nagasaki Peace Memorial Statue”.), a sculptor who was born in Minamiarima Town, Minamishimabara City and is famous for the creator of the Nagasaki Peace Memorial Statue. In the wooden memorial hall where the garden and the birthplace were restored, about 60 works such as “Peace Statue”, sculptors, books and paintings are exhibited, and you can see the condensed essence of Seibo art. It seems. Also, from the park with a good view overlooking Amakusa Nada, you can see the nationally designated historic site “Hara Castle Ruins” known for the Shimabara Rebellion. “Unzen City”, It is located in the south, northwestern part of the Shimabara Peninsula. Tachibana Bay(was originally called Chijiwa-nada Open Sea or Chijiwa Bay, but in 1919 when TACHIBANA's statue was constructed in Chijiwa Town (present Chijiwa Town, Unzen City, Nagasaki Prefecture), the persons concerned submitted a petition to change the denomination of Chijiwa-nada Open Sea to Tachibana Bay.) faces the west bank and the Ariake Sea faces the east bank. The total area is 214.31 km2, which occupies 5.2% of the whole prefecture. Some are designated as Unzenamakusa National Park, the first national park in Japan. The climate is blessed with warm and rainy conditions, making it one of the prefecture's leading tourist destinations. Seven towns were merged in 2005. Kojirokoji (Unzen City, Nagasaki Prefecture): Important Preservation District for Groups of Historic Buildings. Tachibana Bay was originally called Chijiwanada Open Sea or Chijiwa-wan Bay, but in 1919 when TACHIBANA's statue(Mr. Shuta Tachibana(陸軍歩兵中佐 : 正六位 - 勲四等 - 功四級): He was a lieutenant colonel and worked as an educator for Emperor Taisho.)was constructed in Chijiwa Town (present Chijiwa Town, Unzen City, Nagasaki Prefecture), the persons concerned submitted a petition to change the denomination of Chijiwa-nada Open Sea to Tachibana Bay. Similar Ushioni festivals or cow god festivals are also held in the following places: Minamitakaki County, Nagasaki Prefecture (present-day Unzen City); Uwajima City, Ehime Prefecture; and Ichiki-cho, Hioki County, Kagoshima Prefecture (present-day Ichiki-kushikino City); under the name of 'Toshimon,' 'Ushonin,' and 'Tsukuimon' respectively. Finally, I think the excellent varieties such as “Wase Haraguchi(early ripening: In 1969, nagasaki prefecture Nishisonogi District Saikai Town: Current Saikai City(Even today, they sometimes set shorobune afloat on rivers or on the sea in Shimabara City, Saikai City, Matsuura City, and Goto City.)” : In the Miyagawa early mandarin orange field of Mr. Seiji Haraguchi in the mountains, only one tree that bears extremely sweet fruits was found.)and Sasebo Wenzhou (Virus‐free: Once infected, plants cannot be excluded from immunity and cannot escape the virus for the rest of their lives; After detoxifying the virus, in 1998, the sale of seedlings to mandarin orange producing areas in Nagasaki Prefecture became popular. The harvest season is expected from late November to early December, about 10 days later than “Wase Miyagawa oranges”, (early), and it is famous as a Nakate species.)are wonderful. Very early harvesting: “Wase Iwasaki” : This is a bud mutation of Wase Okitsu found by Mr. Denichi IWASAKI of Saikai Town, Nishisonogi District, (today's Saikai City,) Nagasaki Prefecture in 1968. The history of Nagasaki mandarin is that in 1780 (Tenmei era), Omura feudal lord, Sumiyasu OMURA-Ko, Satsuma feudal lord “Nagashima mandarin” (Izumi District (former: Higashi Town) Nagashima Town unshu mandarin), Ikiriki, Sonogi District. It is said that it started to be cultivated by Mr. Yuemon Tanaka, Mr. Rinemon Tanaka, Mr. Tsuguemon Nakamichi and others in the village (currently Tarami Town, Sonogi District).(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.)The saplings were shipped nationwide when the high-quality “Satsuma mandarin” was cultivated from the Ikiriki region. This is called “Ikiriki Citrus unshu”. 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, “Act on Special Measures for Promotion of Fruit Tree Agriculture (Government Ordinance No. 145)”, the Nagasaki Prefecture Citrus Promotion Plan was formulated, and the citrus cultivation area is rapidly increased 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(Mr. Kenichi KAKUDO: Japanese agriculture and forestry bureaucrats. He served as the Commissioner of the Forestry Agency and the Vice-Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, and after retiring he was the president of the Norinchukin Bank, and died in 2013.). 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. As of 2021, according to the prefecture, Nagasaki, which is blessed with sunshine conditions, is suitable for mandarin orange cultivation, and it seems that the shipment volume was the 5th largest in Japan and boasted a 6-7% share. Various varieties are cultivated from the north to the south, but in the jurisdiction, “Ajinishiki, Nanko's self-confidence, Daiseikai”, etc. are listed as special products. All of them are characterized by a strong sweetness with a sugar content of 12 degrees or more.

High sugar: Aoshima mandarin oranges were discovered around 1935 in the current mandarin orange field of Mr. Heiju AOSIMA, Fukudagaya, Aoi Ward, Shizuoka City, Shizuoka Prefecture, and it seems that he came to be called by his name. I heard that the word “Miccan” was coined to mean “Kanji / Koji”, which is sweet like honey, because the varieties introduced from China during the Muromachi period were sweeter than the citrus fruits that had been used until then. 1603 to 1604 Nippo Dictionary; Vocabulario da Lingoa de Iapam com a declaração em Portugues: Published in Nagasaki by the Jezus Society (Oxford University Library, Portuguese Ebola Public Library, French National Library, Brazilian Rio de Janeiro National Library) As it is written as miccan in “(confirmed storage) in) ”, it seems that it was pronounced miccan in the old days. This dictionary has 25,967 words in the main story and 6,831 words in the addendum when calculated using headwords. Excluding duplicates, the total number seems to b  e 32,293 words. As expected, this amount cannot hide the surprise in a short period of time.
In 1961, the year when the Act on Special Measures for Promotion of Fruit Tree Agriculture came into effect, the Nagasaki Prefecture Citrus Promotion Plan was formulated, and the citrus cultivation area increased rapidly throughout the prefecture. In 1974, the cultivated area of ​​Satsuma mandarin in Nagasaki Prefecture reached 14,900 ha, and the production seems to have exceeded 200,000 tons. After peaking around this time, the cultivated area and production volume continued to decline, and after the liberalization of imports of orange fruits and fruit juice, the cultivated area as of 2013 was 3,300 ha and the production volume was 60,900 tons, the fifth in Japan. It is the production volume of the rank.

“Otsu No. 4” of high-sugar Satsuma mandarin is a strain selected from “Juman Wenshu” nucellar embryony by sukeo OTSU in Yugawara Town, Ashigarashimo District, Kanagawa Prefecture in 1964, and was registered as a variety in 1977 (earliest). No. 4 that bears fruit and tastes good is registered). The ears of Juman Wenshu were taken from the Nefugawa branch office and high-bonded, and the ones collected from the fruits produced in 1964 (pollen parents unknown) were sown in March of the following year. The first grade seedlings were cut into the Poncirus trifoliata stand in April 1966 to grow seedlings. Selected from No. 1 to No. 10, which first came to fruition in 1972, with the advice of Mr. Minoru KAJIURA and Mr. Tomoaki OGAKI. He devised the Otsu-style one-shot renewal abdominal jointing method, which is a high-touching method for mandarin oranges. From the beginning of April to the beginning of May, a 3-5 cm branch was cut off at the cut end. At that time, do not leave the power branch (leaving a branch with leaves at the tip of the tree). Before Equinoctial week, collect the well-filled summer or spring branches of the previous year, put them in a plastic bag, seal them, store them in a dim place, and make scion with two buds. It seems that the joint is about 20 cm long, the scion is inserted, and the graft is wrapped with tape.
