On March 12, 2011, I still vividly recall the front of JA Chiba Midori's Iioka branch in Asahi City, Chiba Prefecture, which was buried in rubble and mud. Ever since that time, the people of the region have been honest, have a strong faith in reconstruction, and their warm eyes are still fresh in our memory. Chiba Midori Agricultural Cooperative is located in the northeastern part of Chiba Prefecture, in a warm area with high agricultural productivity with various soil conditions such as sandy loam, loam, clay soil, and volcanic ash soil consisting of the Toso Plateau and the Kujukuri Plain. JA was born in January 2001 as one. As a production area that has been built up over many years, the members of the cooperative work hard at production while learning from the hardships and efforts of their predecessors, and bring benefits to us. The production situation in the jurisdiction is divided into upland farming, rice farming, livestock farming, dairy farming, fruit trees, and plants, and it seems that a wide variety of agricultural products are produced and sold. Taking advantage of the characteristics of early cultivation of rice, we are working on specially cultivated rice with reduced pesticides and chemical fertilizers, and for vegetables, we produce 60 items a year, including outdoor and indoor vegetables, and have many branded products. Agricultural product sales in FY2020 were 22,637,870,000 yen for horticulture, 1,776,450,000 yen for agricultural products, and 3,853,280,000 yen for livestock. As of the end of December 2022, the number of union members is 20,854, supporting future children from the Japanese dining table. As an overview of green onion production in the Sosa area, long onion cultivation in the jurisdiction has a long history, and it seems that it began in the Hikari-machi district (now Yokoshibahikari-machi) in the 1955s. Currently, the cultivation area has expanded to Sosa City and Asahi City, and it seems that the long green onions produced in the jurisdiction are branded as high-quality "Hikari green onion". Cultivation is in autumn / winter, spring, satsuki satsuki, and summer, and 700,000 cases are shipped annually. In 1994, a central collection and shipping facility equipped with a pre-cooling storage facility began operation, enabling further quality improvement and shipping in accordance with customer requests. In recent years, the company has faced various challenges, such as an increase in cheap imported green onions, outbreaks of pests that are difficult to control, and the aging of producers. It seems that they are working to maintain and improve the brand's production area. “地球の丸く見える丘展望館”, Located at the top of Mt. Atago, the highest in the northeastern part of the prefecture.

JA Chiba Midori is located in the northeastern part of Chiba Prefecture, and has a variety of soil conditions, such as sandy loam, loam, clayey soil, and volcanic ash, consisting of the Toso Plateau and the Kujukuri Plain. It was established in January 2001 as one. As a production area built up over many years, the members of the cooperative work hard at production while learning from the hardships and efforts of their predecessors, supporting the foundation of Japanese agriculture. The production situation within the jurisdiction is divided into upland farming, rice farming, livestock, dairy farming, fruit trees, and plants, and a wide variety of agricultural products are produced and sold. Taking advantage of the characteristics of early cultivation, we are working on specially cultivated rice with reduced pesticides and chemical fertilizers, and we produce 60 types of vegetables annually, including outdoor and indoor vegetables, and many branded products embrace.
Asahi City can be roughly divided into the "coastal sand zone" bordering the Kujukuri coast, the "alluvial flat zone" including vast tidal flat cultivated land, and the "eastern Hokuso plateau zone" of the alluvial Kanto loam zone located in its hinterland. The tidal flat area belongs to the alluvial flat zone and the "Eastern Hokuso Plateau Zone". The field soil of the plateau is volcanic ash, the soil is loam, and the soil fertility is moderate. As for weather conditions, the average annual temperature is around 15°C, the annual rainfall is around 1,600 mm, and it is famous for its mild climate with almost no snow cover.
The tidal flats in Asahi City, which are under the jurisdiction of the same JA, are centered on upland farming, and in particular, greenhouse horticulture using vinyl greenhouses is popular. Japanese yam, a root vegetable, grows on the northern plateau at an altitude of 40 m to 50 m, edible chrysanthemum, Shishito pepper, and pickling melon, which began as rice paddy conversion crops in the 1965s in the southern paddy area at an altitude of 2.5 m to 5 m, and sandy loam soil. , cucumbers and cherry tomatoes are thriving.
Asahi City's JA Chiba Midori Tidal Flat Mini Tomato Committee is about
A shipping organization consisting of 40 producers, with many young producers. In recent years, we have improved the yield per unit and the rate of excellent products.
For this purpose, the necessity of environmental control has been recognized again, and it seems that the introduction of environmental monitoring equipment and carbon dioxide application machines in the facility is progressing. Environmental control is a technology that promotes the growth of plants by adjusting environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity, and carbon dioxide concentration within the facility to make it easier for plants to photosynthesize and suitable for growth. "Integrated Environmental Control Study Group NEXT". A producer in his thirties who introduced an environmental control system propulsively As a research group voluntarily formed by 11 young cherry tomato producers in the region, it is highly evaluated by those involved. In addition, by holding regular on-site review meetings once a month, we aim to deepen understanding among members about environmental control technology and establish technology. Seems to be In addition, they invite lecturers from environmental control equipment manufacturers to learn appropriate management methods that match the growth of plants, such as fertilization management and water management, which change due to environmental control. Participating young producers are to improve the cultivation environment while observing the results of tallying As a result, the yield increased by about 1.5 times compared to before environmental control was implemented. He is surprised and happy to hear that there are some producers who have achieved yields of 20 t / 10 a. In addition to the further increase in yield and the improvement of the excellent product rate, I have heard that they will continue to hold regular study sessions and on-site review meetings with the aim of standardizing cultivation management technology at a high level. In addition, in order to use equipment related to environmental control more efficiently, it seems that they are studying more appropriate management by accumulating analyzes of research member's facility environment data and yield data. In addition, the entire JA Chiba Midori Tidal Flat Mini Tomato Subcommittee disseminates the compilation of environmental control technology introduction cases by research members so that producers who are working to introduce new equipment related to environmental control can use the equipment smoothly.
