In August 2023, a ceremony was held in Hikawa Town, Yatsushiro County, one of Kumamoto Prefecture's leading pear-producing areas, to mark the departure of pears to be exported to Taiwan. Every year since 2004, JA Yatsushiro has shipped Yoshino pears from Hikawa Town to Taiwan. The pears to be exported weigh nearly 1 kg each and are of the "Nitaka'' variety known as jumbo pears, which are popular in Taiwan as gifts for the Mid-Autumn Festival, which falls on August 15th of the lunar calendar. I hear that Yoshino pears, which are now in their 20th year of export, are very popular in Taiwan, especially among wealthy people, and have established themselves as a branded pear. Approximately 1,300 cases of pears left for Hakata Port. It is scheduled to go on sale at department stores in Taiwan in early September. For about 50 years from 1895 to 1945, China lost Taiwan and handed over Taiwan to Japan. Although the last 50 years have been the era of Japanese rule, in Taiwan we have not heard many complaints or negative opinions about Japan during this period. I have heard that our ancestors and seniors have made various contributions to Taiwan over the past 50 years. Build railways, roads, and ports to improve Taiwan's means of transportation. Because distribution became smoother, it had a major impact on the development of Taiwan's economy. And the construction of dams is a big deal. I have also heard that the lack of agricultural water has been alleviated by constructing water facilities. In addition, we have focused on improving agricultural products, making Taiwanese rice more delicious and contributing greatly to the development of Taiwan's agriculture.

Ononoiwaya Kofun Tumulus (Hikawa Town, Yatsushiro District, Kumamoto Prefecture): Designation date: 20131017, Management organization name: Historic Site, Place of Scenic Beauty, and Natural Monument. A 123 meter long tumulus located on a plateau at an altitude of 50 to 60 meters in central Kumamoto Prefecture. It is a keyhole-shaped tumulus. The existence of tumuli has been known since the Muromachi period, and the oldest written documentation indicating the existence of tumuli dates back to 1497, and rough and actual measurements of stone chambers have been carried out since the Meiji period. Subsequently, actual measurements and excavations were conducted by Hikawa Town (formerly Ryuhoku Town) from 2003 to 2020. The results revealed that the burial mound was built in two stages and had a shape similar to a sword rhombus with the front part protruding slightly. Additionally, it is estimated that there is a shield-shaped moat surrounding the mound, with a width of about 12 meters on t...

ALPS treated water from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (Water that contains radioactive materials inside the building of the Tokyo Electric Power Company's Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, water that has been purified to remove radioactive materials other than tritium until it meets safety standards. Also regarding tritium.) In order to fully meet safety standards, it is significantly diluted with seawater before disposal. For this reason, it seems unlikely that it will have any impact on the environment or the human body. Also, there is a significant change in the concentration of radioactive materials in the ocean before and after it is released into the ocean. We thoroughly check with the eyes of a third party to ensure safety, and we take every possible measure to ensure safety. The comprehensive report concludes that the release into the ocean complies with international safety standards and that "the radiological effects on humans and the environment are negligible. "The IAEA checks not only before release but also after release. This will be carried out over a long period of time. The water inside the building contains fuel-derived radioactive substances that are not normally contained in wastewater from general nuclear power plants, but they are purified until safety standards are met by purification equipment such as ALPS. Purification. International safety standards state that safety should be evaluated based on the sum of the effects of all radioactive materials contained, regardless of the type of radioactive material. This idea applies regardless of whether the reactor is an accident reactor or a conventional reactor.) will be diluted with seawater before being released into the ocean, up to the pre-accident release control target of 22 trillion becquerels per year. The concentration of tritium in this case is set at less than 1,500 Bq/liter. This is 1/40th of Japan's safety standards and 1/7th of the drinking water guidelines set by the World Health Organization (WHO). I'd like to hear opinions from those in the opposition community, but all that matters is that the strict IAEA monitored the Advanced Liquid Processing System and determined that it was below standard values and there was no problem. I strongly believe that comments about contaminated water that lead to a decline in food self-sufficiency and damage to reputation should be stopped immediately.

On December 23, 2021, JA Fukushima Sakura Koriyama District Headquarters held the "2021 Koriyama District Tomato Production Promotion Seminar'' at the Hiwada General Branch in Koriyama City, with approximately 80 producers participating. The total sales amount was 776 million yen for the JA's acreage of 2,367a, and 146 million yen for the area's 677a, with the aim of implementing production and sales policies that promote tomato branding. Tomatoes from this area are produced throughout the year and are shipped throughout the year, but they are still not well-known, so we will talk about the challenges needed to raise their profile and the process of creating a brand at our JA head office sales and distribution center. This is explained by the then-assistant section chief. In addition, the then-chief of the Agricultural Promotion and Extension Department of the Prefectural Agriculture and Forestry Office reported on the growth progress and future measures, and Mr. N...
