After 1892, trial production of paddy rice was carried out in various places in Hokkaido, and the Fukagawa and Sorachi civil servants associations (Takikawa, etc.) at that time aimed at converting rice paddies into paddy fields, and built irrigation facilities to secure irrigation water using the Ishikari River as a water source. Built in the Taisho period. This is how Mita spread. However, during the war from 1937 to 1945, it was difficult to repair and repair the facilities, and it seems that the water intake facilities that were originally constructed had difficulty securing the planned amount of water intake. Thus, in 1950, it was decided to develop water facilities in the two land improvement districts, and a dam to dam the water of the Ishikari River was also raised. After that, as the mechanization of agriculture progressed, the North Sorachi headworks was improved and newly built with the goal of securing the water necessary for large-scale farm development and modernizing irrigation facilities such as deep water irrigation to prevent cold weather damage to paddy rice. The Kita Sorachi headworks sends irrigation water to the two rice fields, with the Fukagawa intake on the right bank and the Sorachi intake on the left bank. In this project, the former Hanazono Headworks directly downstream was also integrated, and it seems that after the improvement of the North Sorachi Headworks, "Hanazono Headworks" was reborn as a floor sill with a fishway installed. The predecessor was completed in 1954. Weir length 148.8m. It was newly constructed together with the Shinryu headworks of Kamuikotan as a state-owned land improvement project. A weir to secure irrigation water in the Kita Sorachi district. Water is taken in on both banks, with the Fukagawa main irrigation canal on the right bank and the Sorachi main irrigation canal on the left bank. Headworks facilities are guarded by sturdy fences and off-limits（North Sorachi Headworks Management Ordinance Enforcement Regulations: September 30, 2005, Regulation No. 66）. Squash, Kurigrou Hybrid: According to Kaneko Seed Co., Ltd., it is an easy-to-cultivate variety with excellent fruit setting and yield. In addition, the fruiting property is extremely high, and the yield is excellent. The fruit shape is flat, and the size is around 2.0 kg. The pericarp is dark green with some green flecks. The flesh is powdery, the flesh is dark yellow, and the color looks great after cooking. The tree is rather vigorous, the leaves are rather large, and it seems to have thick vines. Harvest 45-50 days after flowering. Pumpkin is a plant of the Cucurbitaceae family, and it seems that honeybees are often used for pollination because it has separate male and female flowers. It seems that it is a generic name for insects belonging to the order Hymenoptera Apis superfamily and is also called honey bee. Body length 10-30 mm or more. About 20,000 species have been confirmed in the world, consisting of solitary leaf bees, leaf-cutting bees, social bees, and various families of honeybees. It is all the more interesting that, unlike other bees, they live only on pollen and nectar and do not hunt or parasitize insects or spiders. The female seems to do all the work, such as building the nest and collecting pollen. The structure of the body is also specialized to facilitate the transportation of pollen, and most females have hairs on the forelimbs and lacunae, which seem to be used to sweep pollen off. There is also a pollen-gathering structure called a pollen cage on the hind limbs or underside of the abdomen. In general, honeybees often visit flowers where they can collect both nectar and pollen. It is the pollen that clings to their bodies seems to be rolled up in a part called a pollen basket on their hind legs and transported as pollen dumplings while flying in the air. Pollen dumplings vary in size depending on the honeybee, and they also appear to vary in color depending on the flowers they visit. In addition, the pollen dumplings brought back to the nest are stored in the nest chamber and used as preserved food. In beekeeping, the common honey bee is Apis mellifera. Most of them are imported from Europe and bred for the purpose of collecting honey. There are many cultivars, and the body color changes remarkably, but it seems that many of them are entirely black with a yellow horizontal band on the abdomen. The Japanese honey bee A. cerana seems to be distinguished from the former species by the difference in hindwing veins. It lives mainly in mountainous areas and is bred to some extent, but it seems to be aggressive and inefficient in collecting nectar. It has been found in archaeological sites in a wide range from North America to South America, the place of origin. It seems that it is known that the seeds, fruits and flowers have been edible since. In Japan, there is a record that it was cultivated in Nagasaki Prefecture from around the 16th century, but it became widespread after the 18th century. In addition to squash, it is also called "Nanjing", but it is said that "pumpkin" is derived from Cambodia and "Nanjing" is derived from the name of a city in southern China. If the night temperature is high, the nutrients produced by the leaves during the day will not be transported well to the fruit, resulting in a deterioration of fruit quality. I can say. JETRO (Japan External Trade Organization: Minato Ward, Tokyo) began full-scale agricultural development as part of the formation of the basic characteristics of Hokkaido agriculture in August 1869 by the new Meiji government. It seems to start when you set up a land development bureau. The main objectives of the new Meiji government's development of Hokkaido were to meet the military needs of the "northern border guard'' since the end of the Tokugawa shogunate, and to develop industrial resources such as timber and coal, which were abundant in Hokkaido. Developing vast arable land and establishing a new type of agriculture similar to that of Western advanced nations; It seems that it will be done. After that, it seems that it has exerted a strong influence on the history of Hokkaido for about 100 years up to the present day, showing various ups and downs depending on the period. In addition to these historical and socioeconomic conditions, what should be noted when tracing the development of agriculture in Hokkaido is the peculiarity of its natural conditions. In terms of meteorological conditions, Hokkaido belongs to the range from the northern limit of the temperate zone to the subarctic zone. As for the soil conditions, the land was covered with dense forests at the beginning of the reclamation and was rich in virgin fertility. Vast peatlands were distributed in the low swamps of large river basins, and it seems that there were many lands that could not be easily used with the agricultural methods native to Honshu. Therefore, when starting full-scale agricultural development in Hokkaido, it seems that the establishment of a new European-style farming method that was completely different from the agriculture native to Honshu was intended. In 1871, the land development bureau invited foreign experts to take part in setting the direction of the development policy and development technology. Experimental research facilities (Kaitakushi Affiliated Gardens, Nanae Kaikenba, etc.) were established for this purpose. In addition, the land development bureau actively sends students abroad to study abroad, not only importing agricultural production technology, but also science and technology in general, as well as food habits, house structures, heating facilities, etc. It seems that the intention was to actively ingest life skills in general. In response to these requests from the Hokkaido Development Commission, many foreign experts engaged in vigorous activities. He had his subordinates in the staff survey Hokkaido thoroughly, and was the first foreign leader to come to Japan. He accepted the appeal of Kiyotaka Kuroda, resigned from his current position, accepted an invitation, visited Japan in the same year, and made a great contribution to the development of Hokkaido as the president of the hired teacher and advisor to the reclamation until he returned to Japan in May 1875. He contributed greatly to the development of Hokkaido. He made constructive proposals in various fields such as industry and agriculture, and these measures seem to have become the starting point for building the foundations for the development of Hokkaido as well as Sapporo today. Capron (1804-1885) proposed many projects during his stay in Japan, among which the Sapporo Agricultural College and the brewery were among the major projects for the city of Sapporo. Left the footprints of At Odori Park 10-chome, statues of him and Kiyotaka Kuroda are erected side by side, and it seems that they continue to gaze at the future of Sapporo, the capital of Hokkaido, which continues to develop toward the east.) to the land development burea several times, and seems to have made basic proposals for the development of Hokkaido. He argued that it was extremely inappropriate to cultivate rice in Hokkaido, where the natural climate conditions were similar to those in the United States. He stressed that upland farming should be a new crop from Europe and the United States, centering on barley crops, instead of farming. The opinions and proposals of these foreign advisors were not necessarily fully adopted by the Hokkaido Development Commission, but they did not necessarily support the introduction of new farming methods using Western-style farming tools, the introduction of new crops centering on field crops, the promotion of livestock farming, and the promotion of these agricultural activities. Policies focused on the processing of livestock products were vigorously developed. At the same time, it seems that this was linked with the opening of numerous government-owned factories along the direction of "promotion of new industry''. For example, crops such as barley, wheat, barley, oats, corn, potatoes, carrots, green beans, peas, cabbage, turnips, pumpkins, onions, tomatoes, hemp, flax, sugar beet, pasture grass, apples, and grapes are very popular today. All of them are Western crops that were imported during this period, and it seems that not a few of them eventually came to occupy a position as the central agricultural products of Hokkaido. In addition, in order to promote the establishment of a sales and distribution system for these agricultural and livestock products, land development bureas purchased various agricultural products. And it seems that many government-run factories were established using these purchased agricultural products as raw materials. The main types were miso, rapeseed oil, flour milling, sugar milling, spinning and weaving, as well as beer and wine brewing. Therefore, the basic direction of agricultural promotion in Hokkaido in the early Meiji period was focused on upland farming. It seems that it was only accepted as a general direction. However, among the farmers who migrated from Honshu, there was an extremely strong obsession and desire for rice cultivation as an undercurrent of farming. proceeded. A typical example of this is the successful trial production of paddy rice using red-haired rice brought from southern Hokkaido by Kyuzo Nakayama old man（1828-1919: In 1873, he ordered several kinds of seeds from Ono village in southern Hokkaido, cultivated them on a trial basis, and succeeded in producing "Akage." At that time, rice cultivation was considered unsuitable in the cold regions north of southern Hokkaido, but he had high aspirations and opened a 50 unit of land measurement paddy field and practiced it. As a result, he harvested 345 kg per 10 a. Akage has spread throughout Hokkaido as an excellent variety with excellent cold resistance and laid the foundation for rice cultivation. Today's Hokkaido rice seems to have inherited the gene of this Akage. In addition, the red-haired variety spread during the Meiji period, and in 1928, it was selected and presented as a rice field for the gods. "Yumepirika'' and "Nanatsuboshi'', which have become Hokkaido's representative rice, are descendants of the "Akage variety'' (Hokkaido Agricultural Experiment Station registration number 1).）, Shimamatsu Village（Kita Hiroshima City）, Sapporo County, in 1873. It seems that he showed the development of distributing it to. However, the severe cold weather damage in 1884 led to strong opposition to rice cultivation. It seems that it took many years after that to get rid of the label of "unstable crop". In any case, various measures based on the grandiose concept of "constructing a large-scale agricultural area with new farming methods equivalent to those of Europe and the United States,'' advocated by the land development burea in the early Meiji era, have had a great impact on the present state of rice cultivation in Hokkaido. seems to have an impact. Pumpkins were introduced to Hokkaido from the late 18th century to the early 19th century, and were actively cultivated in the Meiji era with the encouragement of the land development bureau. The cultivation area in Hokkaido was the largest at about 20,000 hectares during the postwar food shortage period, but it seems to have decreased to about 5,000 hectares around 1960. There are various local factors, and it is not possible to give a concrete indication, but it seems that recently, it has increased to about 9,000 hectares, probably due to health consciousness. As for the variety, "Masakari Pumpkin" is famous in Hokkaido, and it is said to be a variety derived from "Hubbard Squash", which was experimentally produced at Sapporo Agricultural College in 1878. "Ohama Miyako pumpkin'', which was produced in present-day Teine Yamaguchi, Sapporo City, is a popular variety with a warm feeling, but due to the urbanization of Sapporo, the cultivation area has decreased sharply, and now it is cultivated in Teine and part of Ishikari. It seems that it is. In terms of cultivation areas by municipality, Wassamu Town in Kamikawa District, Nayoro City, Bifuka Town in Nakagawa District, and Shibetsu City, in that order, seem to be suitable for inland areas with high temperatures. As for the squash, which I introduced earlier, the fruit is rugby ball-shaped, the skin is extremely hard, and the flesh is hard and powdery. The color is black or dark green, the shape is irregular, and the weight is about 2 kg. The flesh is soft and dusty, and the taste is light and sweet with no peculiarities. Since the pericarp is hard, it can be stored for a long period of time. The fruit is so hard that needles are used to split it, so it is said to be called a broad-axe Kabocha. In addition, it is difficult to determine the proper harvest time, and immature fruits are characterized by a starchy smell. In Hokkaido, there are many vegetables that have been cultivated since ancient times, rooted in the climate, topography, and local food culture. These unique vegetables once seemed to disappear, but there seems to be a trend to reconsider their existence and charm. I think it would be fun to check it out if you're interested. Cucurbitaceous crops usually grow vertically first and then horizontally. It takes about 20 days after flowering to grow vertically, and about 25 days to grow horizontally. I have heard that the base (of a plant or tree) berries that first appear in early spring are still cold, so they do not grow very long during the period when they grow vertically. By the time they stretch sideways, the temperature rises and they can stretch. Since the fruit that grows in the distance has a high temperature from the beginning, it can grow vertically and form a ball shape. If conditions are good in the latter half of the growing season, it will grow horizontally, and if conditions are good in the first half of the growing season, it will produce excellent agricultural products with strong vertical growth. The color of the pericarp is darker at the base of the plant and seems to get lighter as it gets further away. Pumpkins from the same production area have dark skins during the cold season, and become lighter as the temperature rises. In addition, it seems that the color of the pericarp may become pale when exposed to light. Internode length also varies with climate. In such years, the gap between the knots of the pumpkin becomes shorter. In other words, all breeds tend to be flat. Conversely, the flattened years are dry and delicious. It seems that the fact that the buttocks are flat despite the pointed buttocks is proof that they are growing in a well-drained area. If you make it in a poorly drained place, it will not dry out and will not become flat. Tendo City is the number one producer of Japanese chess pieces in Japan, making it a "Japanese chess city". A long-established manufacturer in Toyooka City, Hyogo Prefecture, which is a major production area of bags, has developed an all-leather shogi board and pieces in cooperation with craftsmen in Tendo City, Yamagata Prefecture, which is the largest producer of pieces in Japan. The koma（piece）, which is made of multiple layers of polished leather and engraved with hand-carved letters, seems to sometimes create a sense of luxury with a melancholic feel. The shogi set was manufactured by Hattori Co., Ltd., which was founded in Toyooka City in 1885. Member organizations: Japan Bag Association, National Bag Wholesaler Association, Hyogo Prefecture Bag Wholesalers Association Toyooka Kaban Association, Toyooka Chamber of Commerce and Industry. Toyooka Employers' Association). After the distribution of the model bag "Yanagi Kori (a kind of woven kudzu basket. A cuboid container with a lid. It seems to be used to store clothes, documents, and miscellaneous items)", it is now a bag. Engaged in manufacturing and wholesale. Demand has plummeted due to the pandemic, and lifestyles have changed. A production plant for the liquid "AdBlue®" required for diesel engine vehicles such as trucks has been completed in Tendo City, Yamagata Prefecture, and the opening ceremony is being held on July 4, 2022. "AdBlue®" is high-quality urea water, which seems to be used in devices that purify gas emitted from diesel engine vehicles such as trucks and buses. "AdBlue® (high-grade urea water used as a reducing agent in the SCR system. PM can be reduced if high combustion efficiency is required at high temperatures in diesel engines, while nitrogen in the air is oxidized to generate NOx. The SCR system can decompose NOx into nitrogen and water by injecting urea in the muffler against the increasing NOx, and has succeeded in achieving both clean performance and improved combustion efficiency of diesel vehicles. The strictest standard in the world. It is a next-generation system that looks ahead to not only Japan's new long-term regulations but also the planned post-long-term regulations. The main component is urea. It is colorless and transparent manufactured by dissolving high-purity industrial urea in pure water. It is an aqueous urea solution. It is sprayed on the exhaust gas inside the catalyst installed in the diesel vehicle and decomposes nitrogen oxides, which are the cause of air pollution, into nitrogen and water. Urea water is a colorless, harmless liquid. It is also used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and fertilizers. AdBlue® is a harmless and safe product, so it does not seem to require any special qualifications for handling.)" However, due to the suspension of imports from China, etc. , There has been a shortage since last year, and prices are skyrocketing. For this reason, Tendo City's transportation company "Koei Transport (located in the Osho Industrial Park in Tendo City, Yamagata Prefecture, National Highway No. 13 that crosses north and south, National Highway No. 48 that circulates in Sendai, and National Highway No. 112 that accesses the Shonai region of Yamagata Prefecture" It is located at the base point, and it is very convenient to use the Yamagata Kita Interchange on the Yamagata Expressway, the Tendo Interchange on the Tohoku Chuo Expressway, and the expressway. It seems that we are making efforts to make it available to more customers in the near future. Based on community-based, it will be the foot of the company that sends from Yamagata to the whole country, respond to the various needs of customers, and the client company will develop further. It seems that they are coexisting and co-prospering together and working hard every day so that Yamagata Prefecture can develop further. The corporate philosophy is that "carrying is living" and the workers are living in the work of "carrying". In "Practicing and pursuing" carrying that is useful to people and contributes to society, rather than simply carrying it, we opened the first production factory in the prefecture to provide a stable supply of AdBlue®. A new large ball variety of cherries that will pre-debut this year, "Yamagata Benioh Cherry (Yamagata Prefecture has spent more than 20 years growing it and pre-debuted on June 23. The shipment volume in 2022 is about 6 tons, the prefecture. Aiming for the largest production area of "0.05% of the total cherry production", Tendo City and JA Tendo established a study group on May 19, 2022. The brand name of "Yamagata C12 Cherry" (registered in March 2020), a new variety of cherries developed by Yamagata Prefecture, which has the largest number of shipments in Japan. The cherry developed by the prefecture is the seventh variety since the "Beni Yutaka Cherry", which was registered as a variety in 2009. It seems that the use of the matching app "daywork", which allows you to recruit and apply for agricultural part-time jobs on a daily basis, is spreading among cherry producers in Yamagata prefecture who are suffering from labor shortages during the harvest season. I heard that the ease with which job seekers can choose the day they want to work is popular, and there are many applications for side business purposes. Producers seem to be trying to utilize it to secure stable labor. Kamakura Industries Co., Ltd. (Location: Yamanouchi, Kamakura City, Kanagawa Prefecture: Agriculture where labor shortages are becoming more serious due to a shortage of successors and a decrease in new farmers. One app to solve such problems. The feature of this service is that it focuses on "daily farming work" rather than long-term matching, and it is now a new way of hiring and working to protect the future of agriculture. Introduced to more than 80 JAs) developed. Job seekers can search for job information based on the date, place, and daily salary conditions and apply with a single click. It is operated with a subsidy from the Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Mirai Fund (Tokyo), and seems to be available free of charge. The introduction of the app to the prefecture was started in June 2021 by the prefectural agricultural labor force securing measures implementation council made by the prefecture and producers. By the end of May 2022, there were 263 producers and 807 job seekers registered in the prefecture. The occupation of job seekers is the largest at 36%, and it seems that the use for side business purposes is conspicuous. Although the council has been increasing the number of job offers at employment security offices and employment agencies of agricultural cooperatives, it seems that employment every few weeks, which is a prerequisite, was a hurdle. Regarding the use of the app, the person in charge of the prefecture analyzes that it is being used by people who were difficult to apply for conventional job offers. The users are not always ready to work, but it seems that they are calling on the producers to use them properly, such as by letting them do simple tasks. The city area's a fan of Tachiya River, Midare, etc. originating from the Ouu Mountains, and the western part is a plain part that belongs to the Yamagata Basin. The eastern part is a mountainous area included in the Ouu Mountains. The Mogami River flows along the city area in the southwestern part, and the Kurazu River flowing in the central part and the Midare flowing in the northern part join the Mogami River Located in the central part of the prefecture, Yamagata City is bordered by the Tachiya River in the south, Mogami River is bordered in the west, Kangawae City and Hebei Town in Nishimurayama County, Nakayama Town in Higashimurayama County, and Higashine City in the north. It is a rhombic shape with a long east and west. It is a fan-shaped area such as the Tachiya River and the Ran River that originated in the Ou Mountains Zone. In the southwestern part of the city, the Mogami River flows along the city area, and the Kuratsu River flowing in the central part and the Ran River flowing in the northern part join the Mogami River). I hear that many varieties have been introduced from overseas since the Meiji era in Japan. As for the environment, it is preferred that the terrain and soil of the: orchard are flat and the ratio of volcanic ash soil is high. In the Takadama district of Tendo City, when the Yamadera Risshakuji Temple was opened in the Heian period, the rich spirit and religious spirit represented by some stone cultural properties were created in the Takadama district. After Yoshinao Shiba set up his residence about 600 years ago, water from the mountain temple and abundant spring water filled the moat, and a castle town was formed in which the surrounding temples were moved to protect the four corners. The Ushu Highway and the east-west road that connects Risshakuji Temple and Jionji Temple pass through, and the remnants of this area, where daimyo and travelers from Sankin-Kotai came and went, and there were many wealthy farmers, are the blackboard walls, gates, and anticipation that still remain. It seems that you can tell from the pine trees, etc. It seems that you are working to promote community development that many people visit while disseminating information about Takadama's precious history inside and outside the area. Shoge's stone entrance gate, which is a tangible cultural property designated by the prefecture, stands in a field slightly north of the intersection of Yamadera Highway and Yoko Highway. The entrance gate is made of tuff and has a height of 3.87 m. The pillar is 91 m thick and has a circumference of 2.79 m. Kasagi and Shimaki on the pillar seem to consist of one stone. Both Kasagi and Shimaki seem to be cut vertically at both ends. The kan and bundles have been lost, but it seems that traces of inserting the kan remain in both through holes. Because it stands facing west, it is believed that things stood toward the mountain temple. Together with the stone entrance gates of Motoki, Yamagata City and Rokuta, Higashine City (Yojiro Inari Shrine), it is said to be one of the "best three entrance gates" and has almost the same style. Takadama Castle was built 600 years ago by Yoshinao, the grandson of the owner of Yamagata Castle, Kaneyori SHIBA (the second son of the Oshu quest Shiba family and the ancestor of the Hashu quest Mogami). It is a contoured flat castle surrounded by a quadruple moat, and it seems that a small castle town was created by taking in water and spring water from the mountain temple and moving the surrounding temples to protect the four corners. It seems that there are still some remnants of roads such as junctions, cityscapes, and place names. The moat disappeared with the times and was completely filled in the 1965s, so it seems that only a part of the moat remains today. In 1979, in order to convey the irreplaceable historic site left in the hometown to the future, a monument to the Takadama castle ruins was placed on the site of the former Takadama village office (currently Tatenouchi Community Center) near the main gate of Takadama Castle Nimaru. Erect. The inscription was written by Yorinobu TENDO, the 24th generation of the Tendo family, a descendant of the Tendo castle owner who was associated with the castle. Going back a little in history, the Tendo Oda clan is a clan that has Oda Nobunaga's second son Nobunaga as an ancestor. Nobunaga and his eldest son, Nobutada, were attacked by his vassal Mitsuhide AKECHI in 1582 and committed suicide at Honnoji Temple, and his second son, Nobutada, took over. After that, the Oda clan ruled the Obata clan (Kanra Town, Gunma Prefecture) and the Takahata Clan (Takahata Town, Yamagata Prefecture). Crop yield was about 23000 koku of rice, and the territory was 21 villages in the Murayama region (Murayama district). Since life in Takahata was difficult, he entered Tendo to produce safflowers in Tendo and rebuild the economy. At that time, safflowers from the Edo period were useful as dyes and cosmetics, and it seems that they were so expensive that it was said that "Monme was a gold one.（≒ 3.75 g）" In the current Tendo city, it was located in Tendo, Oshimizu, Kubonome, Nagaoka, Haga, Terazu, Ozeki, and Araya. At that time, in addition to the Tendo Oda domain, the villages of the Tsuchiura domain, Kitame branch, Tatebayashi domain, Shogunate domain, and Tanagura domain were mixed in the current Tendo city. The relationship between Tendo and the Oda clan has been about 100 years since the country was changed to Takahata and came under its control until the Oda clan disappeared at the end of the Tokugawa shogunate. Among them, it seems that it was only about 40 years after Nobukazu ODA that the Oda clan directly ruled Tendo by letting the vassals live mainly in Tendokan (currently Tazuru Town, Tendo City). As the purpose of formulating the basic policy, with the progress of motorization in recent years and the opening of large-scale customer attraction facilities, it seems that the attractiveness of the city as a "face of the city" in the central city area is decreasing, and the vitality is declining. In order to improve this difficult situation, Tendo has been holding the "Tendo Town Development / Urban Revitalization Roundtable" since 2011. In addition, we will conduct a questionnaire on Tendo City shopping streets and urban revitalization, and a questionnaire on consumer trends in Tendo City, and get the voices of shop owners and consumers. We have formulated the "Tendo Central City Revitalization Basic Policy" in order to summarize these opinions and create and revitalize the liveliness of the central city area. I heard that Tendo City has relatively little snowfall in the eastern part of central Yamagata Prefecture, with fruit fields mainly in the east and paddy fields in the west, and there are many farmers who mainly use fruit trees. Main agricultural products "cherry", apples, western pear, grapes, rice, thighs, beef cattle, farmer image required by pig farming areas Dout, western pear, grapes and other fruit trees are cultivated and produced to protect the production area and brand. Seems to need it. New farming support system Technology and management guidance is provided by the Agricultural Technology Promotion Division of the Murayama General Branch Office of Yamagata Prefecture, and the Agricultural Guidance Division of the Tendo City Agricultural Cooperative. At the Yamagata Prefectural Horticultural Experiment Station (currently Yamagata Prefectural Agricultural Research Center Horticultural Experiment Station) in Sagae City, in 1979, "Sato Nishiki Cherry" × "Tenko Nishiki Cherry" (1960, from the garden of Unkichi Nagase, Takeda The accidental seedlings discovered by Takesaburo (named in 1965) were selected and bred from the seedlings obtained by crossing, and were registered as varieties in 1991. In the first year of the Meiji era (1868: Restoration of the Royal Government), German R. Gartoner planted six cherry trees in Hokkaido (Nanai Town, Kameda District, Hokkaido: an artificial beech forest is also known). Was done. After that, “Hakodate” was the central area, but the pioneer was moved to Sapporo because it was too biased to the south. Thus, after the bakufu transferred power back to the Emperor, the Meiji Restoration began with a declaration of The restoration of imperial rule on December 9, 1867. Under the Decree for the Restoration of Imperial Rule, the Meiji Government intended to pursue theocracy and use Shinto as its base. planning of agricultural development in Hokkaido by the Meiji government focus on Kiyotaka KURODA and Horace Capron, History Anthropology Society, Choi Shobo, 1980.9 (En marge de l'histoire; historical boundary), A Study on Kenjiro YAMAKAWA's Study Abroad, Faculty of Letters, Aoyama Gakuin University It is said that the first issue of the Department of History, 1970.3 (1969), Both, CiNii Articles) imported seedlings from the United States of America and spread them to Hokkaido and the Tohoku region. In Yamagata Prefecture, original breeding was promoted, and because the climate was suitable, it developed into industrial cultivation. Today, it boasts the highest production volume in Japan. Agriculture, which controls the bright signs of Japan and the development of the first industry, will be reborn from Tendo City, Yamagata Prefecture. Mr. Kato, the owner of a tourist orchard in Kaminoyama City, has worked hard to select from seedlings and registered the varieties of "Taisho Nishiki cherries". Befitting its name, it has a large, crispy flesh and a very sweet taste (more than Beni Shuho cherries). Sato Nishiki Delivered to consumers from related parties in early July when the cherries are over. It has a long shelf life and is not easily damaged. Also, the shoulders are lifted like apples, and they are heart-shaped and cute. The planted area is only 0.4% of the total cherries. A variety selected and bred from accidental seedlings found in a mixed plantation of Napoleon cherries, Sato Nishiki cherries, and Takasago cherries. It is an excellent variety that acquired the seedling method registered variety No. 2216 in April 1990. The biggest feature is that the flesh is very hard, and there is no swelling or uneven color. It is a large ball with a fruit weight of nearly 10 g, has a good appearance, is brightly colored, and tends to be well colored even in the shade of leaves and lower branches. It has a high sugar content of 20 degrees or more, is juicy, and has a good taste. The tree is strong, and the tree is upright and close to Takasago cherries. Pay attention to the formation of the main branch so as not to make an acute angle. The flowering period is later than that of Napoleon cherries and 1 to 2 days earlier than that of Sato Nishiki cherries, so mutual mating is good.

It is said to have its roots in saikoro (⚂) Japanese chess called “Chaturanga” that was played in North India around the 5th century. It is not clear when Japanese chess was brought to Japan, but it is said that it was already being played in the aristocratic society in the 11th century during the Heian period, based on excavated artifacts. There are many differences from Japanese chess in China and Korea, and it has developed independently in Japan. The production of shogi pieces started in Tendo dates back to the end of the Edo period. In 1767, the Oda clan was transferred from Obata, KOZUKE Province (now Obata, Kanra Town, Gunma Prefecture) to Takahata, Dewa Province (now Takahata Town, Yamagata Prefecture). It seems that koku of rice was in the Murayama region centering on Tendo. In 1831, the domain was moved from Takahata to Tendo, and in 1848, the territories that had been in Takahata were also concentrated in Murayama due to a territorial exchange, effectively creating the Tendo Oda clan. However, due to continued poor harvests, the clan was in financial difficulty, and as a remedy, he actively encouraged his vassals to make side jobs for shogi pieces. The reason for this was that "Japanese chess is a game of fighting, so it is not a side job that would hurt the samurai's face.'' During the Tendo Oda Domain era, shogi pieces were manufactured by dividing the work between wood base construction and writing. It was mainly produced by handicrafts, but from the end of the Meiji era, mass production by mechanization progressed, and in the early Showa era, it became possible to supply cheap and high-quality Tendo shogi pieces. However, in the 1965s, the main production shifted to carved pieces, and the techniques of carving and raising were researched and commercialized. Today, Moriage pieces made by traditional craftsmen certified by the Association for the Promotion of Traditional Industries are used in title matches for professional shogi players.
Yamagata Tendo Japanese chess piece (Date designated as a traditional craft: April 8, 1996): The main wood used for the wooden base of piece is Buxus microphylla from Satsuma (Kagoshima) and Buxus microphylla from Mikurashima Island (Tokyo). The process is roughly divided into the process of making the wooden base of the piece and the finishing process of adding letters to the finished wooden base using lacquer with a gold lacquer brush. There are two types of piece-letter: printed style writing and cursive. Especially, cursive is a unique and beautiful character that has been handed down in 'Tendo Shogi'. In recent years, there has also been progress in research on carved-filled koma and moriage-koma (pieces that have been carved and ground and polished with lacquer to emboss the characters using a silver lacquer
brush, then carefully polished after being dried). Many semi-cursive scripts such as Every year, the "Tendo Japanese chess Piece FESTIVAL" is held in Tokyo and other metropolitan areas.
