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. Nagatsu of the JA Zen-Noh Fukushima Horticulture Department reported on the progress of tomato sales in 2021. The head of the Munegata Koriyama district at the time said, "The Konan Summer Autumn Tomato Production Subcommittee has a sales value of 106 million yen, and the subcommittee is a production area that generates about 100 million yen annually. From now on, it will become a brand. Therefore, we at JA would like to provide full support.''

【Origin of name】
It was named with love from the production area (harvest area). With wonderful fruit crystals. Originating around the Andes in western South America, the indigenous Aztecs called it “TOMATL. ”It is widely known, and it is said that Tang dynasty(唐柿, 蕃茄, 小金瓜, 赤茄子, 珊瑚樹茄子: another name)and “TOMATO” are used in Japan after the Meiji Era. “Momotaro Tomato”, Treetop A large pink ball that does not hurt even when shipped after it is fully ripe. A long-established store from the Edo period-Developed by foundation takii & co., Ltd in 1835. Launched in 1985, it boasts explosive popularity.
【Major features】
In Konan Town, Koriyama City, which falls under the jurisdiction of JA Fukushima Sakura Koriyama District, specialty summer and autumn tomatoes reach their peak shipping season after the lantern festival holidays in August, and workers at the fruit sorting plant are busy sorting and packing the red-colored fruits. The town's Konan Summer and Autumn Tomato Production Subcommittee acquired Fukushima Prefecture GAP (FGAP: A system in which the prefecture certifies producers and organizations that practice Good Agricultural Practice based on the prefecture's own standards, including measures against radioactive materials.) certification in 2019, and was working to produce safe, secure, and high-quality tomatoes in accordance with the standards. The 19 growers in this subcommittee have been working on harvesting since mid-July, and a total of about 5 tons of tomatoes are brought in from each grower every day to the tomato sorting facility on the premises of our JA Konan General Branch, mainly from the Kanto area. It is distributed in In fiscal 2021, the company aimed to ship 300 tons worth 120 million yen. The Konan district, located at an altitude of 500 meters, experiences a large difference in temperature between day and night during the summer, with days in the greenhouse sometimes exceeding 40 degrees Celsius and nights dropping below 20 degrees Celsius. It seems that when the night temperature is low, the consumption of sugar produced by photosynthesis during the day is suppressed, resulting in sweeter and more flavorful tomatoes. For this reason, Konan tomatoes are gaining popularity not only within the prefecture but also in the Kanto region. Shipping will continue until late October. Konan town; Akatsu, Fukura, Miyo area, Located on the south coast of “Lake Inawashiro(One of the 30 new tourist attractions in Fukushima: Funatsu Park; picturesque place, Konan Seven Beach, Konan Port)” in Koriyama City. It’s famous as a high-temperature zone with an altitude of 500 to 1,000 meters. Equally along the Aizu region mountains, the amount of snowfall’s about 80 cm to 130 cm, and winter temperatures can drop to 17 and 8 degrees below zero. The town’s blessed with historic sites, cultural assets and natural monuments(Koriyama Nunobiki(A plateau with an altitude of about 1080 m; 33 wind turbines are being built)New tourist attractions like the “Plateau of Wind” have also been created: “Nunobiki radish”). Especially in the summer, the temperature difference between day and night is large, making it an ideal environment for growing tomatoes. I hear that the taste is created by photosynthesizing in the sunlight during the day. Koriyama City, Cet article tente d'élucider la situation du developpement spatial des tonctions UHL) clans le guartier central de la yule de Koriyama, par l'analyse de la distribution et du processus d'agglomération des fonctions CBD. Les fonctions CBD fondamentales choisies dans cet article sont au nombre de quatre, soient les fonctions de commerce au detail, de restauration, d'affaires (par exemple banques, compagnies d'assurances, etc.) et d'hôtellerie. La vine de Koriyama est située 200 km au nord de Tokyo. C'est la métropole régionale de la préfecture de Fukushima. En 1990, elle comptait 315, 000 habitants. Elle est reliée. Tokyo par le Shinkansen du Tohoku qui a été inaugure en 1982. Le centre-ville est le plus vieux quartier de Koriyama. II s'est développé autour de la rue de Rikuu Highway (jadis la route nationale qui la reliait Tokyo), qui est une route principale construite dans les années 1600. Ce quartier a été traditionnellement un lieu d'agglornération de la population, le centre économique, ainsi que le nceud du réseau de transport non seulement pour Koriyama, mais aussi pour la région du Tohoku-sud. Actuellement, il y a la gare de JR (ex-Socieété Nationale des Chemins de Fer Japonais) avec la voie ferree du Shinkansen du Tohoku qui est située au centre. De plus, s'y concentre les rues principales comme la Nationale 4 reliant Tokyo Aomori, et l'avenue station square main street reliant la gare avec l'Hôtel de vule. L'importance stratégique et économique du centre de Koriyama se réfléchit dans le niveau des prix des terrains situés dans ce sectéur. Ainsi, les lots situes devant la gare JR sont les plus dispendieux de la préfecture de Fukushima. Toutefois, la distribution des bâiments multiples étages (six étages et plus) se limitent actuellement autour des principales avenues. Ainsi, beaucoup de magasins avec logement un eétage se mêlent aux immeubles moyens (au-dessous de six étages). Le réseau des rues étroites et des chemins irréguliers empêche la construction rapide de grands édifices, et par le fait meme limite l'évolution de la structure patiale du secteur. Done, la répartition actuelle des fonctions CBD est le reflet de la distribution historique, notamment en ce qui concerne la fonction commerciale. Dans la zone commerciale du centre se trouve la rue Rikuu Highway et l'avenue station square main street qui occupe le cceur du centre-ville, lequel est entouré par la zone des restaurants. La zone des affaires est située la périphérie du quartier, tout au long de la Nationale 4 et de l'avenue Sakaibashi-Omachi. La zone hôtellière est presque similaire la zone commerciale. Beaucoup d'hôtels sont des immeubles en hauteur qui consacrent leurs étages inférieurs aux activités commerciales ou de restauration. Au point de vue de la distribution verticale des fonctions CBD, les étages consacrés la fonction commerciale sont localisés au niveau inférieur, surtout au rez-de-chaussée l'exception des grands magasins. La fonction de restauration se retrouve aux étages inférieurs et moyens. Les fonctions des affaires et hôtellière se situent aux étages les plus élevés. Jusqu'présent chaque fonction s'est agglomérée au centre et s'y est déplacée avec un processus différent. La fonction commerciale a été centralisé en bordure des rues entre les grands magasins dans le dessein d'attirer beaucoup de piétons.(Graduate Student, University of Tsukuba, Geographical review of Japan. Ser. A Chirigaku hyoron 1992), Be sure to try the "Sakura Tomatoes'' that are loved by everyone. A PK conveyor type color sensor that keeps the product temperature from harvesting to shipping low and has less impact on the selection of fruits is introduced. High-sensitivity proteome analysis method(2016.07.21): 2020 Division of Biology, Department of Biological Sciences, School of Science, Hokkaido University. (Professor Junji Yamaguchi, Junji Yamaguchi's Laboratory in the Department of Morpho-Functional Science, 2015, Support for the "Editing Fee Support Project for Young Researchers," Joint Research with the University of Tsukuba, Ritsumeikan University, and the Max Planck Institute (Germany🇩🇪)). Comprehensive information on post-translational regulation of metabolic enzymes in tomato fruit that was unknown. It has been revealed that the functions of many enzymes are regulated by phosphorylation and the associated interaction with 14-3-3 proteins (Family of conserved regulatory molecules expressed in eukaryotic cells of Escherichia coli). It is hoped that this will lead to the creation of a new technological platform for optimizing the yield and nutritional content of tomato fruits. Enzyme reaction (general, enzyme reaction) = E+S ≒ ES ≒ E+P (enzyme + substrate ≒ substrate-enzyme complex ≒ enzyme + product) ≒(enzyme+substrate ≒ Substrate enzyme complex ≒ enzyme+protect). The effect of two types of organic agriculture(traditonal organic agriculture and Sutotyu organic agriculture)on nutritive value in tomato and green pepper was researched. Sutotyu is made of vinegar extracted from charcoal, glucose and alcohol. In Sutotyu organic agriculture, Sutotyu, charcoal and crashed crab shell were inputted. In January 2023, in order to expand the production of highly profitable horticultural crops such as vegetables and flowers in Fukushima Prefecture, the “Fukushima Horticultural Giga Complex” (to promote horticulture, agricultural output will be reduced to the level before the Great East Japan Earthquake (2, 33 billion yen. Aiming to promote all Fukushima.) has begun. Led by JA Group Fukushima, we will set up complexes in various parts of the prefecture that consolidate farmland and streamline production, aiming for sales of 100 million yen or more per location. It seems that the plan is to reduce the dependence on rice, realize "profitable agriculture", and increase the number of young farmers. According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries' "Agricultural Management Statistics Survey," the average income for all agricultural management bodies, including individual farmers and corporate management bodies, was 1,254,000 yen in 2021. Divided into individuals and corporations, the average income of individual farmers was 1,152,000 yen, while the average income of corporations was 4,245,000 yen. It can be seen that the result is lower than the median household income. Farming requires equipment such as tractors and other agricultural machinery, as well as greenhouse equipment, so it is not uncommon for them to cost a lot of money to prepare them. The average income of all farm management entities of 1,254,000 yen is the gross profit of 10,769,000 yen minus the farm management expenses of 9,515,000 yen. In addition, as can be said in other industries, the situation varies greatly depending on the scale, form, and region, and there is no doubt that there are various management entities. For example, it seems that there are management entities that do not have farming as their main business because they earn income from another business as a part-time farmer. The average income only includes part-time farmers, so there is plenty of room to aim for a higher level of income than the average if you make a living from farming alone. In fact, according to the management income and expenditure of agricultural management entities in 2020, the average income of all agricultural management entities was 1,236,000 yen, and when the target was narrowed down to full-time farmers, the average was 4,156,000 yen. Some agricultural management bodies generate profits of 10 million yen or more a year, while others are in the red. In addition, even among sole proprietorships, the average income of a sole proprietorship (50% or more of household income is agricultural income) is 4.34 million yen, and income varies greatly depending on the degree of relative importance to agriculture. Agriculture is also a business, so we have to think about making a profit. What is important at that time is which crops can produce high profits. It would be nothing less than that the three factors of producer use, organization, and operation in a cooperative are essentially the same. The original meaning of "Blessed Trinity'' is "God is the united existence of "Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.'' Christ, who is the "one God'' in which the three of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are united doctrine. "Father" is God and "Son" is Christ. And the "Holy Spirit" is the existence that appears before Jesus Christ's disciples after he ascends to heaven and acts as a link between God and humans. It is believed by most Christian denominations, including the three major denominations of Catholicism, Protestantism, and the Eastern Orthodox Church. However, in the process of establishing the doctrine of Christianity, various interpretations of the Trinity theory and the divinity of Christ arose, leading to fears of a split in Christianity. In the 4th century, the emperor Constantine I, who was thinking of using Christianity to rule the Roman Empire, held the Council of Nicaea in 325 to break through. At the conference, a debate was held as to whether Christ was God or Man, and in the end, the Trinity theory was formulated as a doctrine, acknowledging that he was the same substance as the Father. In the original formulation, the relation of the Holy Spirit was "the Holy Spirit from the Father," but the Western Church later added to it the relation of the "Spirit from the Father and the Son," and the Son. Then, criticism arose from the Eastern Church, which did not approve of changing the formula, and it developed into a controversy. There have been a number of settlement talks, but no settlement has been reached. A food crisis is said to occur with high probability in the near future due to the effects of cyclical climate change and global population growth. We have no choice but to face the risks of Japan's food self-sufficiency rate being less than 40% and 70% of its farmers aged 65 or older. "Kitaakari Potato: Mid-late maturity'' was selected at the Hokkaido Agricultural Experiment Station in 1975 by crossbreeding the mother "Irish Cobbler potato'' with "Tunika potatoes'', which is resistant to potato cyst nematodes (Hokkai No. 63, Agriculture and Forestry). No. 29, Shima Type No. 524) was raised.  (Rusutsu Village is the birthplace of "Benimaru potatoes" (Medium late ripening, Okute: Cultivation characteristics, Cyst nematode resistance: The first resistant variety in Japan together with “Ezoacari potatoes”), a starch raw material that was recognized in 1938 as an excellent variety In 1929, at the Hokkaido National Agricultural Research Center (Kotoni, Nishi Ward, Sapporo), "lembke frühe rosen" was the mother and “pepo” was the father. leaves at the time of germination is purple. The stem length is slightly longer than "Konafubuki potatoes" (In 1971 she crossed with "Toyoshiro potatoes" as mother and "WB66201-10 potatoes" as father.) and the number of stems is large.) Compared to 'Danshaku potato' and 'May Queen potato', it has straighter stem wings, more hairy mushrooms on leaves, fewer flowers, more pollen, and secondary skin color. Compared with "Ezoakari potatoes'', it has a red color, a yellow flesh color, and "yellow potato cyst nematode (Globodera rostochiensis, Wollenweber, 1923)) resistance''. The leaf color of the time is tinged with purple, the flower color is reddish purple, the secondary color of the potato skin color is red, the flesh is Starchy, Powder, etc. It was registered in 1987 under the name "Kitaakari potatoes". Forestry and Fisheries), an application was filed for registration in 1987 based on the Seed and Seedling Law, and the following year, 1988, the variety was registered. The soft, deep mouthfeel is highlighted by the pale yellow color and soft sweetness of the Tunica potatoes. Kitaakari potatoes, which have the good points of each, have a fluffy feeling and seem to be excellent cultivation that maximizes the original flavor. In addition, it is famous as an energy-saving potato that can be boiled in a short time. It seems that the heat treatment time is about 2/3 compared to the baron potato. The ideal storage location for general potatoes is a cool, dark place with low humidity set at around 10°C. Specifically, one-unit of land measurement refrigerators for commercial use and cargo containers with air-conditioning installed seem to be used as potato storage for farmers. I've heard that general household refrigerators are not very good because there is a limit to the amount that can be stored, and moisture tends to accumulate inside the refrigerator. Protecting the green land inherited from our ancestors, cultivating fields, regenerating the regional agricultural production base that has provided consumers with fresh, safe and secure agricultural and livestock products, and regaining a rich and healthy life. It seems that this is the wish and the “future of the hometown” that we should aim for. JA Fukushima Sakura promotes support for recovery and reconstruction activities of cooperative members, users, and affected farmers, and cooperates with the national government, prefectures, municipalities, etc., and tackles reconstruction issues according to the following basic policies. On October 30, 2022, the gubernatorial election will be held on October 30, and on the last Sunday of the election campaign, the incumbent candidate (main official position: councilor of the National Association of Mayors, vice president of the National Sign Language Association, Tohoku national highway) Chairman of the Council, Member of Abukuma River System River Development Committee, Member of Abukuma River Upper Basin Flood Control Council, Chairman of Fukushima Prefectural Sewerage Association, Vice Chairman of Fukushima Prefectural City Planning Association, Member of Fukushima Prefectural Elderly Medical Care Wide Area Assembly, Prefectural Fukushima Airport Revitalization Promotion Council Chairman, Koriyama Regional Firefighting Association Manager, Japanese Red Cross Society Fukushima Prefecture Branch Koriyama District District Manager, Japan Water Works Association Tohoku Region Branch Secretary, Japan Water Works Association Fukushima Prefecture Branch Manager) is in Fukushima City, and new candidates are campaigning in Koriyama City. Seems to have expanded We are trying to dig up votes by advocating policies in urban areas of the Big favorite voting constituency. In mid-September 2022, an original variety of strawberry developed by Fukushima Prefecture, "Fukushima ST14 Strawberry: Fragaria L. (Japanese name: Strawberry genus), Name and reading of the cultivar applied, Fukushima ST14, Name and address of the applicant at the time of filing, Fukushima prefecture (Sugitsuma Town, Fukushima city) Application number 36009, Application date 2022/02/02, Date of Publication 2022/06/20, Date of Withdrawal Refusal,Date Name of Breeder, Miho Akiba, Satomi Miyashita (Fukushima Prefectural Agricultural Center Crop Horticulture Department Researcher), Export Designated country with restrictions on activities Fukushima prefecture with restrictions on production activities" has been decided to be "Yuyake Berry Strawberry", and the logo design has also been completed. In anticipation of the annual demand for Christmas and the Year-End and New Year days, a debut event will be held in late December, and sales will begin at mass retailers and direct sales outlets in the prefecture. “Yuyake Berry Strawberry” is a strawberry developed by the prefecture over a period of 10 years. It seems that there were a total of 17,732 applications from 8,279 people inside and outside the prefecture for the name recruitment. It seems that the name was invented by Ms. Niida of Motomiya City after a review by the prefectural creative director Mr. Yanai (born in Koriyama City), producers' groups, and market and distribution officials. It seems that the decisive factor was the expression that makes you feel the color that is characteristic. Based on the concept of "radiant strawberries that convey the thoughts of Fukushima", the idea is "every time you bite into it, happiness spreads in your mouth like the sunset that turns the sky red, and you can feel the bright hopes of tomorrow." It seems that it was put in. "Yuyake Berry Strawberry" has many large strawberries that are larger than a 500 japanese yen coin size, and has a moderate acidity and a strong aroma. It grows vigorously even in the cold season, and it seems that the harvest starts early and the yield is high throughout the year. The prefecture breeds "Tochiotome Strawberry" and "Kaorino Strawberry". It seems to be the first new variety in about 20 years since "Fukuharuka strawberry" and "Fukuayaka strawberry" in this prefecture. In fiscal 2022, 14 households in the prefecture are producing it, with a planted area of about 0.6 hectares and a production volume of 18 tons. It seems that there is also an intention to expand the cultivation area from next fiscal year and expand the planted area to 10 hectares or more by 2025. I've also heard that the production volume is limited, so the target will be narrowed down to within the prefecture. In addition to the debut event, Fukushima Prefecture seems to be promoting with consumer monitor tours and the production of gift boxes using the logo design. Taking advantage of the fact that it can be shipped within the year, it seems that it will aim to sell at a higher price than "Tochiotome Strawberry", which is native to Tochigi Prefecture and accounts for the majority of the market share. The opening ceremony of the JA Fukushima Sakura Koriyama District Pear Joint Sorting Plant will be held from August 19, 2022 at the same fruit sorting plant in Atami Town, Koriyama City, and the shipping work for the specialty pears has begun in earnest. It seems that the size and sugar content are about the same as the average year. The name of "Tamura City" is derived from the Tamura clan, descendants of Sakanoue no Tamuramaro, who ruled this area as Tamura County for generations after the conquest of Emishi by Sakanoue no Tamuramaro. Seems that the city emblem was also enacted by public offering. From the Nara period to the Heian period, the Imperial Court often made eastward campaigns against the hostile Emishi. At first, as one of the lieutenant generals of Otomo no Otomaro (731-809), he made a successful expedition to the east, and later succeeded in subjugating the Emishi as Barbarian Subduing Generalissimo shogun. In his later years, he was promoted as a councilor (equivalent to the current cabinet minister), middle councilor, and dainagon, and was active mainly in the center of politics, but his life ended due to illness. He is 54 years old. His official rank is Chief Third Rank of Dainagon and General of the Right Guard. He was posthumously awarded the rank of Junior Second Rank. The 52nd Emperor Saga (786-842) mourned his death and apparently went into mourning for a day. The city is located in the center of the Abukuma Highlands. On March 1, 2005, the former five towns and villages of Takine Town, Okoshi Town, Miyakoji Village, Tokoha Town, and Funabiki Town were merged and formed out of seven towns and villages in Tamura District. This area is located about 30 km from Koriyama City, the core city of Fukushima Prefecture, and is an area in Nakadori, Fukushima Prefecture that serves as a node with Hamadori. The Abukuma mountain range runs north to south in this area, and from the north, Mt. Hiyama (1,057 m), Mt. Yorigatake (995 m), Mt. Kamakura (967 m), Mt. Takashiba (884 m), Mt. Otakine (1,192 m), Mt. Hayama (970 m), etc. These mountains and small mountains form a topography of continuous rolling hills. In addition, many rivers such as the Otakine River and the Takase River flow down from these mountains. Although the climate belongs to the Pacific coastal climate, it seems to have the characteristics of an inland climate with a large annual temperature range and little rainfall and snowfall. Even in the cold season, the continuous snowfall period seems to be getting shorter. About three and a half years ago, in fiscal 2019, the city was located in a hilly and mountainous area with a forested area of ​​just under 70%. Add to this the impact of the Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011, and the reality of agriculture and farming villages seems to have been extremely harsh. Chicken eggs (large corporations) rank first in terms of agricultural output, meat cattle ranks second, and vegetables rank third. Livestock is an important industry that supports the region. In addition, the area has long been a production area for breeding cows, and "Tokiwa Japanese beef" and "Miyakoji Japanese beef" are known. There were 102 from Fukushima Prefecture and 96 from Tamura City. For the large-scale progress project, JA Fukushima Sakura established a subsidiary (JA Wagyu Farm Fukushima Sakura Co., Ltd.) to maintain the production base and establish a system that can support farmers, and started the Cattle Breeding Station (CBS) business. By the end of the fiscal year, hardware such as facilities will be completed, and full-scale operations will start in fiscal 2019. In the Tamura area of ​​Fukushima Prefecture (Tamura City, Miharu Town, Ono Town, Tamura District), agricultural products such as peppers, tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, blueberries, beef cattle, and paddy rice are produced, taking advantage of the blessed nature and semi-cold climate. There is the Tamura area in Fukushima Prefecture, which is easily accessible from the Tokyo metropolitan area and Sendai and is rich in nature, is generous in agriculture. In addition, the Tamura Agricultural Extension Center has launched the "Tamura New Farmer Support Council" in collaboration with the jurisdiction, JA Fukushima Sakura, and local farmers. Iwaki City, Born on October 1, 1966, with a major merger of 14 municipalities. It borders Ibaraki Prefecture at the southeastern tip. Since it faces the Pacific Ocean to the east, the temperature difference is relatively small and it is blessed with a warm climate. It gradually lowers to the east from the Abukuma Highlands (elevation 500 to 700 m) in the west. A flat land is formed, and rivers centered on the Natsui and Same rivers flow through the city area and flow into the Pacific Ocean. It is easy to spend because it is warm in winter and cool in summer. It has about twice the area of ​​Tokyo's 23 wards and boasts the second largest population in Tohoku after Sendai. In the earthquake disaster reconstruction, efforts are underway to aim for a town that will be a base for industry and living that supports the reconstruction of fukushimg prefecture hama street. In this region, people who are our distant ancestors have lived since ancient times, and while living a life of gathering such as hunting and fishing, they have built a splendid culture supported by a warm climate and rich nature. This is evident from many archaeological sites. In the prehistoric period, the central government was established in this region, and it seems that it was an important district as one of the bases to govern the Tohoku region. The era eventually entered the age of the samurai, and through the Kamakura, Muromachi, and Sengoku periods, we moved on to the early modern Edo period. It seems that he laid the foundation for the current Iwaki city. In the Edo period, this area was ruled by the Iwakidaira clan, Yunagaya clan, Izumi clan, and shogunate territories, leading to the Meiji Restoration. In 1883, Taira Town was established, and in 1889, when the town and village system was established, Taira officially established the town system, followed by Onahama and Yotsukura (now Yotsukura), and other districts. established a village system. Later, Taira City was established in 1937, and Iwaki City (now Onahama), Joban City, and Uchigo City were established in 1954, and Nakoso City was established in 1930. On the other hand, towns and villages were organized by Tono and Ogawa, and other districts were merged, and 1 city, 10 towns, and 21 villages became 5 cities, 3 towns, and 4 villages. In 1962, following the enactment of the New Industrial City Construction Promotion Law, municipalities in the Joban region agreed to merge and build a new industrial city. Iwaki City was born from the merger of 5 cities, 4 towns, and 5 villages, consisting of 3 cities, 4 villages, Hisanohama Town and Oku Village in Futaba County. In addition to rice, which is the staple food of the Japanese people, the main crops in Iwaki are soybeans, green onions, strawberries, green beans, cucumbers, tomatoes, pears, figs, and Iwaki's specialty tokkuri-imo (a kind of Chinese yam, which is grown deep underground). The thickness increases as the temperature increases, and it seems that it is produced like "Tokkuri (sake bottle), which is named after its shape resembling a sake bottle." It seems that the difference in temperature is relatively small, and it seems to be blessed with a warm climate. For this reason, rice and other agricultural products have been produced since ancient times. Many outdoor vegetables are shipped from autumn to winter, especially in the Meiji period. It is known nationwide that the amount of green onion that has been cultivated from the beginning is high. In addition, it seems that the environment is optimal for greenhouse cultivation because of the long hours of sunlight. For this reason, since the 1965s, Greenhouse cultivation of strawberries, cucumbers, etc. seems to have become popular, and in the last 10 years hydroponic cultivation of tomatoes has increased rapidly, and Iwaki is now one of Japan's leading producers of greenhouse tomatoes. Akai Garden Co., Ltd., Many varieties of tomatoes are cultivated according to the season and order according to the consumer. Large ball's tomatoes are Momotaro, Momotaro Gold, etc. The tomatoes in the middle are Campari and Frutica. For cherry tomatoes, Lovely Sakura, Yello Mimi, Orange Senka, Tuscan Violet, etc. For cooking, Sicilian Rouge, San Marzano, etc. There are plenty of shops to buy, eat, and manage. Please visit our website for details. Nuclear hazard: We carefully measure Harm caused by radiation and confirm that it does not exceed the national standard before shipping.(Step; Countermove)In addition to cultivation, the water used at the facility has been changed to tap water. Replace all cultivation materials and seedlings. (Producing area trial)Radiation measurements are at relatively low levels. The city's measurement results confirm that the tap water used for cultivation is safe. It is kindly and detailedly described, and you can see the efforts for consumers, and you can have a good impression. Appropriate use of pesticides is carried out by implementing agricultural chemicals residues before the start of shipment and recording the control history. "SUNSHINE Iwaki" (from J-PlatPat), Registration 6213515 (Commercial Application 2019-126939), Sunshine Iwaki, Sunshine, Fukushima Sakura Agricultural Cooperative, Application date, 2019/09/27, Registration date, 2020/01/07, Registration 6213516 (commercial application 2019-126940). The same JA has started selling green peppers in a collaboration package with Nagatanien Co., Ltd., and has been lined up in stores since July 15, 2022. In this initiative, JA, JA Zen-Noh Fukushima, and Nagatanien Co., Ltd., a major food manufacturer, cooperate to promote the purchase of green peppers, which are in peak demand from July to August, "Nagatanien's main product" Mapo vermicelli", focusing on green peppers that have a high affinity with the same product, and posting a recipe for "green pepper mapo vermicelli" using green peppers in the package. Also, if you purchase green peppers and Nagatanien vermicelli at the same time, you can apply for a lottery to win rice and gift certificates. This year, the total planted area of ​​green peppers is 25 hectares within the JA Tamura General Management Center. The total shipping volume is 1,550 tons, and the sales target is 600 million yen. In May 2022, the JA Fukushima Sakuraiwaki District Headquarters held a Green Pepper Planting Guidance Meeting at the JA Ogawa Agricultural Economic Center, with four producers participating. At the guidance meeting, it seems that they explained in detail about the management of green peppers after planting them, using seedlings. Originally, it was planned to be held at the producer's field, but due to rain, it was held at the same center. In the same district, it seems that the cultivation of green peppers for the purpose of promoting horticulture has started from 2020. Peppers are a lightweight item that can be cultivated with little physical burden even in old age, so full-scale cultivation has started this year. Pepper Miogi Green (L3) cultivar characteristics, but the grass is strong, the internodes are a little long, and the lateral branches seem to grow well. The fruit is rather long and slightly wrinkled, and has a beautiful shape with a good bottom. The fruit color is slightly dark green, glossy and firm. In addition, it is a high-yield cultivar that grows fruit quickly and can be harvested in a short cycle. Good fruit setting, stable harvest from early stage. There seems to be resistance (L3) to PMMoV (P1.2) (pepper micro spot virus). It seems that semi-forcing cultivation to summer-autumn cultivation is most suitable. In order to increase the yield, it is important to plant young seedlings and remove buds from the 2nd to 3rd branches to ensure the vigor of the plant from the beginning. When the burden of bearing fruit weakens, deformed fruits such as sharp and curved fruits increase, and the main branch stops at the core, so it is better to harvest frequently so that there is no delay in picking at the center of the M size. In summer-autumn cultivation, fruit enlargement is particularly fast, so water shortage is likely to occur, and the risk of end rot is high. Top-dressing should be done frequently from the start of harvest so as not to run out of fertilizer. The fruits are soft and of good quality even when cultivated outdoors, but rotten fruits are likely to occur in the rainy season, so it seems better to cultivate them in a rain shelter. Well, overgrowth will make the fruit color pale, so remove the bosom branches and long branches as soon as possible and manage the whole plant so that the light hits it. Bacterial wilt; Ralstonia solanacearum: At first, it seems that some leaves lose water and wilt while remaining green. It wilts during the day for 2-3 days, recovers at night or on cloudy days, but eventually the entire plant wilts. At high temperatures, the disease progresses quickly, but at low temperatures, the disease progresses slowly. When the ground part of the stem of the diseased strain is cut, the vascular bundles turn brown, and the stem is placed in a container filled with water. When inserted, a white bacterial fluid flows out like a string. The pathogenic bacteria can survive in the soil and can survive for several years under suitable conditions. It is transported by water and the roots during planting and maintenance work. Invasion through various root wounds such as root wounds, feeding damage by nematodes, cracks when lateral roots develop, etc. It is also transmitted from above ground through scissors during maintenance work. Invaded bacteria enter vascular bundles. It seems to be a secondary infection source. Recommended. Excerpt from Institute for Horticultural Plant Breeding (Kamishiki, Matsudo City, Chiba Prefecture).

Amidst the pandemic, a 2021 Tomato Cultivation Seminar for Processing was held at JA Fukushima Sakura Main Store on Thursday, December 17, 2021. (Sponsor: Fukushima Prefecture Processing Tomato Production Stability Promotion Council) In Fukushima Prefecture Processing Tomato Cultivation, the number of producers and cultivation area are decreasing year by year due to the aging of the population, so this seminar will increase the motivation of producers to cultivate tomatoes. The event was held with the aim of putting a brake on the increase in acreage and the decline in the number of producers. A total of 64 people from producers, JA, manufacturers, and related parties participated. In the first half, awards were given to the top producers in the 2020 processing tomato recovery category and total shipment category, as well as to the producers who have been working hard for many years to cultivate tomatoes for processing. In the second half, Kagome Co., Ltd. and Nippon Del Monte Co., Ltd. each held seminars on performance reports, introduction of good practices, cultivation measures, and next year's initiatives, and manufacturers' representatives reviewed the current year and provided cultivation guidance. During the Q&A session, producers and JA personnel exchanged various opinions.

On July 25th (Monday) and 26th (Tuesday), 2022, the JA Fukushima Sakura Top Sales of Agricultural Products from the Jurisdiction was held in Shinjuku Ward, Tokyo, for the first time in three years. Approximately 40 people participated, including Mayor Hirono, chairman of the Futaba Regional Municipality, mayors of municipalities within the jurisdiction of JA Fukushima Sakura, and executives of the district's production committee. Prior to the top sales, a meeting on sales measures for production areas and consumption areas was held with representatives from the main trading markets (12 companies), regional production committee executives, and fruit and vegetable market companies. An exchange of opinions was held, and reports were also given on the status of resumption of farming in Futaba County and the efforts of JA Agri Support Futaba Co., Ltd. Top sale at Tokyo Shinjuku Veggieful store (over 70 years of history and track record: Kita-Shinjuku, Shinjuku Ward, Tokyo, Central Wholesale Market, Yodobashi Market) At the event, he gave away Koshihikari rice produced within JA Fukushima Sakura's jurisdiction, and promoted his agricultural products such as tomatoes, green peppers, and green beans. Market participants say that "JA Fukushima Sakura's agricultural products are of good quality and taste.'' It seems that this was a great encouragement for the participants. In order to ensure a stable supply of agricultural products within the Futaba jurisdiction, we will continue working with related organizations to further restart farming and promote the production of horticultural items. Top sales of agricultural products produced within the JA Fukushima Sakura jurisdiction were held.

In the island nation of Japan, natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, frost, and hail damage occur frequently every year. We need more measures than ever before. Furthermore, from a global perspective, JA is required to take new measures to address issues such as the food crisis caused by Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the agricultural crisis caused by high prices for fertilizer, feed, and crude oil. In the 80 years since World War II, there has probably never been a more difficult time for agriculture and JA. How can we promote domestic consumption and domestic production while maintaining international cooperation? The soaring prices of production materials cannot be compensated for by sales prices, putting pressure on farmers' management. In particular, agricultural and livestock products from Fukushima Prefecture seem to be the first to be held back when there is an oversupply. We urge people not only in Japan but also around the world to understand safety based on scientific knowledge and not be influenced by harmful rumors, including the government's currently controversial policy of releasing ALPS (multi-nuclide removal equipment) treated water into the ocean. I want everyone to appeal for the revitalization of Fukushima. You are working really hard.

Abstract algebra is a general term for the study of mathematics concerning axiomatically defined algebraic structures such as groups, rings, fields, modules, vector spaces and linear rings. Without a deep understanding of the significance of the formation of classical mathematics, it is difficult to fully understand the significance of abstract mathematics. In the first place, the significance of using symbols instead of figures in mathematics proofs, the problem of the existence of mathematical objects such as imaginary numbers, and other historical philosophical problems have nothing to do with the significance of the formation of abstract mathematics. The Évariste Galois theory was proposed by a Frenchman in the early 19th century. And "prove the impossibility'' is the joy of Galois theory. It is said that it was discovered by mathematicians such as the It seems that algebraic solutions are obtained by using the four arithmetic operations and n-th roots. This means that for equations of degree 5 and above, there is no formula for their solution. To prove this conclusion, he considered the equations themselves. He used the fundamental theorem of algebra proposed by Gauss that "an algebraic equation of degree n has exactly n complex solutions, including duplication''. The proof is reached without any effort (learned in junior high school mathematics, elimination method is common). In today's terms, this method seems to be the forerunner of the technique of exploring the underlying properties of the subject mathematics. It seems that Galois theory was something he came up with when he was a teenager. To his friend Auguste Chevalier, he wrote a letter summarizing his mathematical work on Galois theory and elliptic function theory. Later, in 1846, Joseph Liouville, who learned of Galois' achievements, published a collection of articles in his journal. Diophantine approximation: Reminds me of Arithmetica.

Artificial intelligence (AI) predicts the number of customers based on the weather and sales performance, with an error of approximately within 10%. Appropriate shipping volumes and prices are displayed on farmers' smartphones, etc., reducing shortages and waste. The plan is to revitalize the "1 trillion yen market," where farmers can freely set prices, and improve the profitability of agriculture, which lacks workers. This AI, which specializes in forecasting demand at direct sales stores, is called Agriasue (AI demand forecasting service), and seems to aim for three-way good for farmers, consumers, and direct sales stores. The direct sales market exceeded 1 trillion yen in 2016, but it seems to be sluggish at 1,046.4 billion yen in 2021, so will the introduction of this AI further increase sales as a market?


【Product name】
KISSROMAN melon
【Type】
Cucumis melo L.
【Producing area】
Aomori Prefecture(AOMORI・G・C・G & Kassai AOMORI)
【Origin of name】
You can kiss not only the lips, forehead, cheeks, and other parts of the face, but also the collarbones, arms, and backs of hands. This kiss has a hidden meaning in each place. Humans have exchanged many kisses throughout history, with the earliest written records dating back to 1,500 BC. There are various types of kisses, including not only love kisses, but also affection kisses, greeting kisses, and submission kisses. Its original origin is the French word "roman", which means "novel (written in Romance)", but it is derived from "roman" and means "romance" and "longing for adventure". It seems that the English word “romance” has a great influence on the meaning of Japanese. Natsume Soseki was the first to write romantic in kanji, and it is said that it first appeared in the novella "Nowaki(無駄口を叩く学者や, 蓄音機の代理をする教師が露命をつなぐ月々幾片の紙幣は, どこから湧いてくる. 手の掌をぽんと叩けば...)" published in the magazine "Hototogisu" in 1907. By the way, Soseki is also known as a writer who used many phonetic equivalents, and there is an anecdote that his disciples who were involved in the editing of "Soseki Complete Works" published after his death had trouble correcting and unifying them.

A catchphrase to improve the image of Aomori Prefecture. “Lively color Aomori” expresses Aomori’s desire to make life more colorful in the future while making the most of the diverse charms of Aomori Prefecture in various fields such as people, nature, and culture. The name expresses the desire to make Aomori Prefecture a place where applause erupts from inside and outside the prefecture. The symbol mark visually expresses "Kassai Aomori". Using apples as a motif, it symbolizes Aomori Prefecture, which is surrounded by a rich sea, and expresses the energetic vitality, creativity, and friendliness that burst out from its center. Anyone can freely use the Katsusai Aomori symbol mark based on the basic design manual [400KB]. However, it cannot be used in the following cases. When it is recognized that it will damage the credibility and dignity of Aomori Prefecture. When the user uses it exclusively, such as by using it as its own trademark or design. In addition, when the use of the symbol mark is deemed extremely inappropriate. It seems that it has become clear that the hydroponic cultivation of melons carried out in Tsugaru City has a large difference in performance depending on the variety. This is the hydroponic cultivation of "Machida Silk Melon," which was started at the glass house in Tsugaru City in Machida, Tokyo (in 2009, the Machida Chamber of Commerce and Industry started in collaboration with 10 cooperating companies in and outside Machida. For this purpose, local small and medium-sized enterprises can survive in the future by applying the technology possessed by regional cooperating companies such as manufacturers of precision machinery and medical equipment to the field of agriculture and creating high-value-added agricultural products. It seems that there was an urgent background to cultivate a business in a new field. In a situation where it can not be said that the conditions are favorable because there is no person who has experience in fruit cultivation specializing in melon, the related companies said, "High yield, low cost and high price. Under the slogan "Making quality melons", we are focusing on developing a completely new type of cultivation system that has never been seen before by repeating trial and error. We utilized this system created by concentrating Machida's technologies. The cultivation method is named "Machida formula New farming method", and normally one to four plants are harvested, but the new farming method has made it possible to produce about 60 plants. It seems that the quality of high-grade melon has been reached and preparations are being made steadily for full-scale commercialization. And this epoch-making cultivation system itself will be utilized in the suburbs and other agricultural products in the future. It is expected to go. Machida Silk Melon, a name that subtly creates an elegant and fascinating atmosphere suitable for a beautiful light green color and a beautiful mesh pattern, was once a relay point for the Silk Road where Machida carried silk from Hachioji to Yokohama Port. It seems that it was named after it was there. This luxurious melon is full of smoothness and freshness that is reminiscent of high-quality silk products when actually eaten. It seems that there are many voices from the people concerned that once you try it, you will be captivated by its mellow scent and superb sweetness. Behind the creation of a new local agricultural brand, it seems that there is also the aim of promoting the revitalization of agriculture in Machida City and its surrounding areas in Tokyo, creating new local industries, and building a richer local community. Today's Japanese agriculture is at stake amid economic globalization, with various problems such as shrinking agricultural land, aging agricultural workers and a shortage of successors, excessive food imports, and a decline in self-sufficiency. In addition, given the reality that fallow land is increasing, it is extremely difficult to develop a new community-based agribusiness=high-value-added agriculture through agricultural-industry-commercial collaboration with a view to overcoming this situation. Seems to be a constructive attempt. Beyond this trend, it seems that there is an additional advantage that various secondary processed products can be created derivatively and new employment can be expected. The most distinctive feature of the hydroponic cultivation tank used in the new farming method seems to be the structure in which the liquid fertilizer flowing out from the center hits the inner wall of the tank and then drains from the four corners with convection. "Karman vortex" that promotes convection in the tank (when a columnar object moves at an appropriate speed in the fluid (the same even if the object is stationary and the fluid moves), vortices in opposite directions are generated alternately from both the left and right sides of the object. Karman vortex street is the world of fluid engineering and fluid machinery. When a columnar object such as a column or a prism is placed at right angles to the flow, the peeling shear layer from the object is perpendicular to the mainstream. As it vibrates and vortices of opposite signs are emitted in each cycle, a staggered array of vortices is formed downstream of the object. Karman (1911) is perpendicular to the distance in the mainstream direction of the vortex. It has this name because it theoretically shows that this vortex train is stable only when its ratio to the distance between directions has a certain value. In a cylinder, the Reynolds number Ud / νUd / ν (U). : Mainstream velocity, d: Cylindrical diameter, ν: Dynamic viscosity) seems to appear in a wide range of about 50 to 2 × 105. The frequency ff at which the vortex is emitted from the object is the representative length of the object (diameter d in the column). And the fd / Ufd / U, which is dimensionless at the mainstream velocity U, is called the vortex number and seems to be a function of the Reynolds number. Approximately 0.2 holds in the range) and fluctuations that help the absorption of nutrients from the roots occur. It seems that the health of the roots can be maintained because the roots grow radially in the ideal direction and the liquid does not stagnate.) Hydroponics of melon seems to be in the sixth crop now. It seems that five varieties have been cultivated so far in the demonstration test that started in July with the aim of cultivating melon, which is a special product of the city, all year round. In the test, there is a difference in the workmanship depending on the variety, and it seems that the yield and quality of melons are excellent. In winter, I tried three types of lighting to make up for the lack of sunshine, and it seems that LEDs are the most effective because they are economically superior and the amount of light is sufficient. The sixth work that started in June 2022 is "Kimika Melon (Vilmorin Mikado Co., Ltd.)" and "Silk Road Melon (Yamato Farm: Greenhouse, a red meat melon that is suitable for tunnel cultivation and can be cultivated in three dimensions. Resistant to Fusarium wilt (race 0). Fruits are well expressed in the net and occur uniformly and densely, the fruit shape is slightly tall. The flesh is thick and bright orange to the skin. The sugar content is high and stable at 16 to 17 degrees. , The fruit meat is juicy. The ripening period is 53 to 55 days as a guide.) " It seems that they are cultivating a new variety. It seems that the sixth harvest is scheduled for early September. Tsugaru City is located in the northwestern part of Aomori Prefecture, west of the central part of the Tsugaru Plain. It borders Nakadomari Town, Kitatsugaru District and Goshogawara City on the east side of the Iwaki River, faces the Sea of Japan on the west side, and its coastline is Shichirinagahama. It is called Kodomari, Nakadomari Town and Ichiura, Goshogawara City in the north, and Ajigasawa Town, Nishitsugaru District in the south, and a hilly area called Mt. Byobu continues along the coast. To the south, you can see Mt. Iwaki, the SHUHO of Tsugaru, and the Shirakami Mountains, a World Heritage Site. In the center, you can open up the vast Tsugaru Plain nurtured by the Iwaki River. A large breadbasket has been formed since the reclamation of Nitta by the famous Tsugaru clan. The area is 253.55 km2, which occupies about 2.6% of the prefecture area, and its land use is 56.0% for agricultural land, 4.5% for residential land, 13.7% for forests, and 25.8% for others. The climate is a typical Sea of Japan-type climate influenced by the Sea of Japan, and it is widely known as an area suitable for rice cultivation and summer-autumn vegetable cultivation because it is relatively cool in summer and the outbreak of pests is suppressed. In winter, there is a lot of snowfall due to the continuous strong winter-type pressure distribution, and traffic may be interrupted due to the blizzard caused by the strong westerly wind peculiar to the Sea of Japan, which affects the lives of residents. “Nishitsugaru District(Ajigasawa Town, Fukaura Town)” has been the name of the county since it was divided into five counties: east, west, middle, south, and north with the enactment of the county, ward, town, and village organization law in 1878. A county mayor was assigned to the county, and a county office was set up as its office, giving it the function of a substantial administrative division. Immediately before the enforcement of the municipal system in 1889, 108 villages in 11 towns were counted, but after the enforcement of the system: Ajigasawa Village, Maito Village, Nakamura, Akaishi Village, Naruzawa Village, Wooden Village, Tateoka Village, Shussei Village, Koshimizu Village, Shibata Village, Kawase Village, Fukaura Village, Odose Village, Iwasaki Village, Morita Village, Kashiwa Village, Inagaki Village , Shariki Village, Mizumoto Village, 13 Villages established. With the promulgation of the county system in 1890, the county was stipulated as an intermediate administrative agency between prefectures and municipalities, and a parliament (county council) was established to give it the function of a local government. However, since the county as a municipality (county council and county autonomy) was abolished in 1923, and the county as an administrative agency (gun mayor and county council) was abolished in 1926, the county has become a mere geographical division. It has become. After that, due to the merger of cities, towns and villages in 1955, there were 8 towns and villages. In addition, out of the 5 towns and villages that form this area, 4 towns and villages (Morita village and Shariki village are transitional groups up to 2004) have been designated as depopulated areas, and the outflow and decrease of the population continues. There seems to be. Tsugaru City was born on February 11, 2005 by merging the former Kizukuri Town, the former Morita Village, the former Kashiwa Village, the former Inagaki Village, and the former Shariki Village, and is famous as the ninth city in Aomori Prefecture. The city makes history as a land that was once a barren wetland, and was cultivated by its predecessors with unremitting efforts to confront adverse conditions and various obstacles in order to cultivate new rice fields. The paddy field landscape with fresh greenery in early summer and the magnificent rural landscape with golden rice ears in autumn swaying in the wind are one of the pride of the national ward. The beautiful Mt. Byobu windbreak landscape is the result of more than 200 years of tree planting projects that our predecessors have continued to protect Nitta from the strong westerlies from the Sea of Japan and the dust flying from the large sand dunes. Shichirinagahama: As the name suggests, Nanari Nagahama, which extends from Kawajiri in Ajigasawa to near Lake Jusanko, is a long sandy beach that is over 28 km (about 7 里). Since it is a sandy beach where no one lives, it is a place with a high degree of naturalness (Sakurai, Shishin). On the inland side of the windbreak, there are countless large and small swamps such as Lake Tappi. Brackish water bentos such as Corbicula japonica inhabit the estuary of Lake Jusanko and the Iwaki River. The beautiful Mt. Byobu windbreak landscape is the result of more than 200 years of tree planting projects that our predecessors have continued to protect Nitta from the strong westerlies from the Sea of Japan and the dust flying from the large sand dunes.

The world's largest buried forest about 28,000 years ago, Japan's oldest apple tree, and estimated to be about 1,000 years old: There are Fraxinus mandshurica var. Japonica(一本タモ: An estimated 1000-year-old Manchurian Ash. The hump on the trunk is said to look like a woman's breast, and has been worshiped locally as a “milking god” for some time.), which is said to be the largest in Japan. International exchange is also active, and it has become a sister city after rescuing the crew of the “Cheseborough(A sailor was dying on the beach, but there was an episode that a woman in the village warmed her skin.)”, a sailing ship in Bus City, Maine, USA, which ran aground in the Sea of Japan (off Shariki) in 1889. At the annual Chessborough Cup Swimming Ekiden Tournament, players from the bus city as well as the whole country participate, and it is said that it is a big event that can be said to be a world tournament. Benche wetlands : One of the representative marshes of Tsugaru National Park, which has an altitude of about 20 m and an area of about 23 ha. Academically valuable coastal low-rise and middle-rise wetlands (wetlands made up of multiple layers of moss). In early June, Hemerocallis dumortieri C. Morren var. Esculenta (Koidz.) Kitam. Ex M. Matsuoka et M. Hotta(ゼンテイカ; Daylily : It is a plant of the lily family, and is derived from the fact that it grows naturally in the Nikko region of Tochigi prefecture and resembles a Hemerocallidoideae Lindley. It is a perennial plant with a height of about 70 cm, and its flowers are dark orange-yellow and are known as one-day flowers that open in the morning and deflate in the evening.)blooms and one side is dyed yellow. Around the end of June, the area changes from yellow to purple in a large community of Iris ensata Thunb. Var. Spontanea (Makino) Nakai ex Makino et Nemoto (1930)(野花菖蒲: A perennial plant of the Iridaceae family that grows in swamps and grasslands. The thick middle veins of the leaves are conspicuous, the flowers are purplish red, and there are thin pale yellow spots in the center.). This marshland, where various flowers are in full bloom, was designated as one of Japan's 100 Best Nature in 1983. In the city, efforts to contribute to the sound development of agriculture, forestry and fisheries promoted along with the development of renewable energy power generation facilities: From two large-scale wind power generation companies in the city (Green Power Tsugaru LLC., Mahoroba Wind Power Generation Co., Ltd.), a part of the revenue from the sale of electricity from the wind power generation business will be used as funds for regional promotion measures in the agriculture, forestry and fisheries industry. Received the intended donation.

In the case of couples, it is a manifestation of the psychology of wanting physical contact, so it should be accepted as gently as possible. It has deep roots in various meanings, such as lovers confirming each other's affection, affection for family members, and simple greetings.


Roman is used for adventures and so-called hard-boiled feelings. "Born out of a reaction to romanticism (classicism and dogmaticism (seeking rational, rational, and perfect beauty) that had been mainstream until then), it emphasized individual subjectivity and aimed to liberate and establish one's self. Characterized by lyrical and emotional expressions such as romance, admiration of nature, admiration for the past, and heightening of ethnic consciousness, the trend spread to various fields such as literature, fine arts, music, and theatre, and the formation of the Western European modern nation-state. Later, naturalism and realism were brought about as a reaction to that)" is a cultural and spiritual movement that arose in Europe in the 18th century. Until then, the mainstream was classicism and dogmatism, which pursued rational, rational, and "perfect beauty." It is characterized by lyrical and emotional expressions, such as romance and admiration of nature, yearning for the past, and raising ethnic consciousness.

Kleingarten Yachiyo (Matsumoto) is a facility with two types of farms: one for stays and one for day trips. In the land adjacent to the farm, there are "Yachiyo Green Village" (rural park), hot spring facilities, agricultural product processing facilities, and the surrounding area is a recreational facility where you can relax. Day services and nursing homes frequently incorporate recreation. There are many things that can be done without tools and things that are exciting and interesting. It is important to observe so that everyone can participate and have fun. It was an effort to relieve physical and mental fatigue from work and study through play at school and in the workplace, and to take rest and entertainment to recover energy. It spreads all over the world. In the case of Japan, it was imported from America after the war. On August 15, 1945, the Pacific War ended with the acceptance of the Potsdam Declaration. For those who believed in victory for a long time, the reality of defeat was something they never dreamed of. It seems that it was not unreasonable to become stunned. In the aftermath of the war, most of the Japanese people would have lost the means to live, and continued to live their lives without any support or tension. In the midst of this situation, the post-war period began when the U.S. occupation forces set out to revive life in war-weary towns and villages across Japan, based on the idea of ​​"making life fun and creative." Freed from the oppressive atmosphere of the militaristic (Imperial Japan) era, people jumped on various American-initiated recreational programs, such as folk dance, as proof of their survival. In December 1946, Winfield P. Niblo (1912-2007) began teaching square dance in Nagasaki. , Folk dance showed an explosive fashion like a fire in the field. However, while the recreational movement in post-war Japan has the aspect of providing hope for the people to live, it is also closely related to the post-war administrative and policy measures that originated from the occupation policy of the United States. Also undeniable. It was also the time when government-led recreational enlightenment activities took over the impact of the democratization policy under occupation by the CIE (Civil Information and Education Bureau) of GHQ (Allied Forces General Headquarters). However, during the war, singing loudly was discouraged, let alone holding hands between men and women. The fact that no one complained about it seemed to be a blessing in itself.

Aerial pest control for agriculture and forestry in 2023 (July). In Chikusei City, Sakuragawa City (makabe/yamato), and Shimotsuma City, agricultural and forestry aerial pest control was carried out using manned helicopters. Sprayed 8,839ha at 49 bases over 6 days from July 24th (Monday) to July 29th (Saturday). In addition to spraying 651ha using 8 unmanned helicopters of the association as a measure to prevent dangerous damage, we sprayed 281ha with full unmanned helicopters in the Shishigi area of ​​Chikusei City and the Kujira area of ​​Shimotsuma City. In addition, on July 19 (Wednesday), in Koga City, Goka Town, and Bando City, pest control was carried out by unmanned helicopters in the areas where each implementation requirement was met, and 1,139.1ha was sprayed. The NOSAI ibaranishi (Ibaraki Prefecture West Agricultural Mutual Aid Association) carries out agricultural and forestry aerial pest control in order to ensure a stable supply of high-quality rice, improve productivity, reduce the cost of pest control for farmers, and reduce the labor force.

Shingyo, the founder of Niitsutsumi, has a secular surname of Yoshikiyo Saburo Soma. He visited Shinran Shonin in Kojima thatched hut and became a disciple, and was given the Buddhist name of Shigyo. It is said that Kotoku Temple was founded when he used his own residence as a dojo(training hall). Shingyo was born into a samurai family. His father was Jiro Morotsune Soma, who became the lord of Soma Mikuriya in Shimousa, and Morotsune's father was Tsunetane Chiba, who had power in the Shimousa area. Tsunetane CHIBA, Shingyo's grandfather, followed MINAMOTO no Yoritomo and achieved numerous military exploits, and received deep gratitude and warm treatment from Yoritomo. Shingyo's father, Soma Morotsune, also spent half his life as a retainer of the shogunate, but after Tsunetane died in 1201, he entered the priesthood and became a disciple of Saint Honen. In addition, Shonin Shinran became a disciple of Shonin Honen in this year. In 1205, at the age of sixty-seven, he was lonely, but in "Azuma Kagami" he described his final moments: There is no doubt, this is a practitioner of the Nembutsu is written. It is speculated that he visited Shinran Shonin and became his disciple because of his father's single-minded belief in a Buddhist chant Buddhist invocation. In the "Kudensho" edited by Kakunyo, it is recorded that Shigaraki objected to the teachings of the saints and left his disciples for a period of time. In this case, Reni, a disciple, insisted that the principal image and the teachings that Shinran had given should be taken back, but Shinran said, "You must never take them back. He is his disciple and accompanies him. Since the principal image, Confucianism, and Buddhist teachings are expedients sent by Tathagata(如来)for the benefit of sentient beings, they should not be treated as if they were his own" intention and did not blame him. It is said that in his later years, Shingyo repented of his past mistakes and received forgiveness from Kakunyo(1270-?), who had left for the eastern part of Japan, and once again devoted himself to teaching as a disciple of Shinran Saint. In Shinchi Shinden, fields spread out within the area.

Mini winter melon Fukutsuzumi (Tohoku Co., Ltd.: Embraced by the earth, the seeds sprout, bloom, and bring us a great harvest. Tohoku is a company that has been earnestly engaged in research and development of seeds with the desire to discover and maximize their potential. Tohoku is making steady progress towards the creation of a prosperous future, entrusting small seeds with big dreams.) The feature is that the average fruit weight is around 1.5 kg. The fruit shape is cylindrical and regular, and a high rate of excellent quality can be expected. Very little white powdery substance occurs on the skin surface, and the color of the peel is dark green. The vigor of the grass is stable and strong, and the female flower and pollen formation are good, and the fruit setting is good. Can be harvested around 30 days after flowering. For long-term storage, fully ripened harvest is desirable. Although it depends on the season, it seems to reach full maturity in about 40 days after flowering. Princess winter melon (Takii Seed Co., Ltd.) is a mini type with a bale-shaped fruit and an average fruit weight of about 1.5 kg. The flesh is white, soft and thick. The pericarp color is dark green and uniform, with very little bloom. Excellent fruit setting and excellent quality Female flowers are stably generated, have excellent fruit setting, and the size of the fruit tends to be uniform. There is little disturbance in the shape of the fruit, and the excellent product rate is high. The grass is rather strong, has stamina, has excellent heat resistance, and has a high fruiting rate, making it easy to cultivate. Because it is a thermophilic plant, it is not cold-resistant and can only be grown in cool areas during the summer. *Since it is an example, there are some differences from the product. What is the Kanagawa brand ?(In order to register as a Kanagawa brand product, it is necessary to meet the registration requirements set by the Kanagawa Brand Promotion Council.)The Kanagawa Brand Promotion Council (Kaigan-dori, Naka Ward, Yokohama City, Kanagawa Precture), which consists of the prefecture and producer groups, adheres to unified production and shipping standards and ensures a certain level of quality. Winter melon is said to have originated in India and was brought to Japan via China. There is a description of cancer in documents from the Nara period, suggesting that it has been eaten since ancient times. Although it is a vegetable that is in season in summer, it is said to have been named "winter melon" because it has a thick and hard skin and can be stored in a cool, dark place until winter. "Wase winter melon'', a small-sized corn that has been cultivated since the Meiji period, is known as a traditional vegetable of Aichi Prefecture. In recent years, breed improvement has led to an increase in smaller varieties, but in the past, they were large, so they were often eaten during the post-war food shortages. Wase winter melon is avoided because its white powder sticks to hands, and in recent years Ryukyu winter melon is the main cultivation. In Japan, it is usually eaten during the winter melon harvest season from July to October. More than 95% of it is water, so it is great for rehydration in the summer, and it is useful in summer menus when appetite tends to decrease due to its light taste. It can be eaten cold or hot as a dispelling summer heat. It is said that it was introduced to China around the 3rd century and to Europe around the 16th century. It is not known exactly when they came to Japan, but it is said to have traveled from China to the Korean Peninsula about 800 years ago. Since it is mentioned in old Japanese books such as Honzo Wamyo (918: Kamouri) and Engishiki (928), it is believed that it has been eaten as a food since this period. Consumption declined for a while due to the westernization of food culture and the difficulty of handling large vegetables. The "Tabanka Festival" is a unique festival that can only be seen here in Japan. It is said to have originated in 1370 A.D., when a fire broke out in Kenryo-in Temple, Daiho-ji Bettobo, which was extinguished using 'Japanese straw floor covering' and 'pot lids'. Daiho, Shimotsuma City, Ibaraki Prefecture: Daiho Hachimangu "Tabanka Festival" is famous as the oldest Hachimangu in the Kanto region. The Tabanka Festival, which is held here on the first Saturday of September every year, is also known as the "Winter Melon Festival," and presents winter melons to the gods. Tatami mats are arranged in a tomoe shape in front of the altar, and a kawarake (flat plate) with rice and winter melon is placed on the pot lid in the center. A young shrine parishioner dressed in white, who is in charge of the festival, throws it in front of the worship hall. It is said that those who pick up pieces of the crushed kawarake will not get sick, and worshipers compete to pick them up. Next, light two large torches (made of straw) in front of the worship hall, surround the blazing fire, and slam the Japanese straw floor covering mats and pot lids against the stone pavement with all your might. The JA Joso Hikari area is suitable for growing Chinese cabbage in the fall and winter outdoors, as the winter hours are long and warm. At the "Daijosai" festival, which was held in 2019 following the enthronement of His Majesty the Emperor, JA Joso Hikari's Chinese cabbage was offered as a special product of the prefecture. In Yachiyo Town, Yuki County, Chinese cabbage has been cultivated since the Taisho period. Since it was designated as a designated production area in 1966, it has been cultivated in earnest, and boasts the highest production volume in Japan. During the season, Chinese cabbage fields line the fertile flatlands of the town as far as the eye can see, and the fall winter Chinese cabbage is harvested with a soft, sweet flavor that is saccharified by the nutrients in the leaves due to the coldness of the autumn and winter seasons. The JA Joso Hikari Yachiyo District Fall / Winter Chinese Cabbage Subcommittee and the JA Joso Hikari Yachiyo District Spring Chinese Cabbage Subcommittee ship autumn / winter Chinese cabbages from mid-October to early March, and spring Chinese cabbages from early March to early June. About 104 members belong to the Yachiyo District Fall / Winter Chinese Cabbage Section, and in 2017, 2,700 tons of fall / winter Chinese cabbage were shipped. It seems that the committee is cultivating various yellow-core varieties according to the growing season so that they can be shipped stably for a long period from autumn and winter to spring. In recent years, the lack of successors to agriculture has become a problem, but even now in Yachiyo Town, the young generation are leading the agriculture and revitalizing the production area seems to be working. Autumn / winter Chinese cabbage is usually planted from the hot season in late August. It seems that it is important to grow strong seedlings so that the seedlings do not die in the heat. For this reason, the frequency of introducing outside air into the greenhouse where the seedlings are raised is increased step by step, and the seedlings are raised gradually bringing the environment closer to that of the open field. Since this area has a long history of Chinese cabbage cultivation, appropriate fertilization management and selection of varieties based on the results of soil diagnosis. Various countermeasures and ingenuity for continuous cropping failure, such as crop rotation with other agricultural products, have been implemented to support the dining table. Around mid-October, the Chinese cabbage is harvested by hand using a special kitchen knife. Chinese cabbage is heavy and has a round bottom, so remove the excess core and leaves so as not to damage it. Packed in boxes and shipped to the Keihin, Tohoku, and Kansai regions from the day of harvest to the next day. Chinese cabbage cultivation is difficult to mechanize and requires a lot of manual labor. In particular, Chinese cabbage in autumn and winter is cultivated outdoors, so it seems that there are many difficult parts that are greatly affected by the weather. Spinach originated in western Asia and was already cultivated and eaten in ancient Persia. In the east it traveled to China via the Silk Road, and in the west it traveled from North Africa to Europe via the Iberian Peninsula. It was introduced to Japan from China in the early Edo period, and an Oriental variety with sword leaves with notches in the leaves was brought to Japan. It seems that the introduction of Western varieties with round leaves, thick flesh and strong lye was after the Meiji period. In the Showa period, it attracted attention as an important vegetable, and after the war, its nutritional value was recognized and it became a versatile vegetable. Today, first-generation hybrids, which are crosses between Eastern and Western breeds, are the mainstream. Oriental cultivar (a cultivar that began to be cultivated in China. It has less bitterness and a crisp texture. It is suitable for Japanese-style cooking.) The main cultivars are Yamagata Akane and Ujo(Came from China after World War II. It is famous as a breed that was very useful for breed improvement.). Western cultivar (a cultivar improved in the western region from Iran, with round leaves and thick mesophyll. It also has an earthy smell.) Major cultivars include Minsterland and Bilofre. Both group hybrids (cultivars selected and fixed from the progeny of natural crosses between Eastern and Western species.) Main varieties include Hoyo and Jiromaru. By the way, "菠薐" of spinach seems to mean Persia in Chinese. In June 2023, JA Joso Hikari donated 570 copies of "Agriculture and Our Lives" to Shimotsuma City, Ibaraki Prefecture, as supplementary teaching materials for upper grade elementary school students. Issued by JA Bank Agri Eco Support Fund. Zucchini cultivation began in the ISHIGE district of Joso City in 2001. Established in 2004, the JA Joso Hikari Zucchini Production Subcommittee was established in 2013 as the Ibaraki Prefecture Fruits and Vegetables Brand Promoting Production Area (the system was introduced in 1982, and amid intensifying competition among production areas, high-quality, reliable, and safe products are sold in the market). , and was designated as a fruit and vegetable production area representative of the prefecture that can respond to diversifying needs. At first, Mr. Katakura, who was the head of the division, started cultivation by himself. After 2 years of repeated trial and error, such as the use of fertilizers and pesticides, water management, etc., the current cultivation method was established. In addition, it is larger than other production areas, and strict standards are set, and each producer selects with strict eyes. The straight appearance with beautiful color and luster is also attractive. Kazuo Katakura is the founder who started zucchini production for the first time in this area, and has been the chairman of JA Joso Hikari's zucchini production group for 13 years from the start of production to the present. Originally a cucumber farmer, he decided to start making zucchini after seeing a lively zucchini grower in Nagano on TV. However, at that time, the vegetable called "zucchini" was not well known, and when he started growing it, he was the only one. He seems to have had a lot of trouble. First of all, when producing agricultural products, the type and amount of fertilizers and pesticides to be shipped are stipulated by the country, but when I started growing zucchini, I had such a manual, or rather, a fertilizer for zucchini. And the type and quantity of pesticides had not been decided. Therefore, I was fumbling about what kind of fertilizer would be good, and as for pesticides, I couldn't use them without permission even though the government hadn't decided on them. I didn't. There are dozens of varieties of zucchini that are said to be selected, as well as insects and diseases. The JA Zucchini Production Committee ships zucchini from early April to late June in forced cultivation, and from mid-September to late December in controlled cultivation. Because it is hand-breeding, it has a larger shape than other production areas, and it is selected under strict standards and has received high praise from the market. This excellent produce is a fresh, supple vegetable with a unique texture. It has no peculiar taste and can be stir-fried, deep-fried, stewed, or even raw. In the area, the volcanic ash soil of the Kanto loam layer(In spite of its remarkably high natural water content, it has strong structural strength and high soil bearing capacity, strength, and corrosion resistance. However, once the structure is broken, the strength drops dramatically, and it seems that it becomes easy to disperse in water. The compaction effect of crushed soil during embankment seems to be small.), which has high soil fertility, and the warm climate compared to other production areas are used to grow zucchini twice. It is a large production area that accounts for about 70% of the shipment volume in the prefecture. Sengoku cucumbers have a soft, juicy skin and a pleasant texture. To produce high-quality cucumbers, the producers are meticulous about soil preparation and cultivation techniques, and they meticulously record cultivation histories. In addition, it seems that producers and related parties gather regularly to check quality and confirm standards so that standards and quality are unified throughout the production area. Harvesting is carried out early in the morning every day, after which each fruit is strictly sorted, sorted, and boxed by the hands of each producer. In addition, it seems that they are careful to handle it carefully so as not to lose its freshness. When it is packed in a box and brought to JA's collection point, it undergoes a strict quality check by JA again and is shipped on the same day, so the quality is unified and it is very fresh, which pleases us. In 1982, Ibaraki Prefecture started the "Fruit Brand Producing Area Designation System'', and designates production areas that meet strict requirements such as sales amount and market price as "brand producing areas.'' So far, 60 production areas have been designated throughout the prefecture. In the future, in cooperation with JA, municipalities, Zen-noh Ibaraki and other related organizations, we will promote production areas (quantity and quality) that can better meet consumer needs, maintain and develop brand production areas, etc. It seems that we will carry out cultivation designated as a production area aiming for. Joso Regional Agricultural Promotion Councils, etc.: Regional agricultural revitalization councils are established based on municipal areas to promote rice production in response to local demand. The aim is to contribute to the promotion of structural reforms in paddy field agriculture and the creation of crop production areas that make use of paddy fields. There are 44 regional agricultural revitalization councils in the prefecture. Agricultural Promotion Areas: Based on the Law Concerning the Development of Agricultural Promotion Areas, agricultural land areas (agricultural land areas within agricultural promotion areas) are established in order to conserve and effectively utilize superior farmland. As a general rule, farmland is not allowed to be converted into agricultural land, so if it is unavoidable to use the land for purposes other than agriculture, it is necessary to apply for exclusion from the agricultural land area in advance and obtain permission.

In terms of natural and social conditions, the Western Prefecture Agricultural and Forestry Office jurisdiction consists of 10 municipalities: Koga City, Yuki City, Shimotsuma City, Joso City, Chikusei City, Bando City, Sakuragawa City, Yachiyo Town, Goka Town, and Sakai Town. With an area of 1,031 km2 and a population of 532,000, it is less than 20% of the prefecture, and is dotted with historical small and medium-sized cities. Located within 40 to 80 km from the Tokyo metropolitan area, the JR Mito Line and National Route 50 run in the northern part of the jurisdiction, and in parallel, National Routes 125 and 354 run east-west in the south. In the north-south direction, Kanto in the east. The railway Joso Line, National Route 294, and National Route 4 run to the west, and prefectural roads and municipal roads connecting these major arterial roads are also maintained. Furthermore, in recent years, such as the Kita Kanto Expressway and the Metropolitan Inter-City Expressway. A wide-area transportation network has been developed. Due to its proximity to central Tokyo and its proximity to Tsukuba Science City across the Kogai River, industrial parks and other secondary and tertiary industries have been located within its jurisdiction and urbanization has progressed. Prefectural area 6,097 km2, prefectural population approximately 2,845,000 people (Source: Ibaraki Prefecture population and household (estimate) monthly report as of February 1, 2021) Overview of agriculture in the jurisdiction, production status With the average annual temperature of about 14°C, annual rainfall of about 1,200 mm, and annual sunshine hours of about 1,900 hours, the area is suitable for agriculture. The plateau is a dry-field farming area representative of the prefecture where lettuce, green onion, Chinese cabbage, cabbage, etc. are produced, and large-scale open-field vegetable management utilizing employment is being carried out. In addition, the production of small watermelons, tomatoes, cucumbers, melons, zucchini, bitter melons, and other fruit vegetables such as pears, which boasts the largest shipping volume in Japan, is also thriving, forming one of the nation's leading horticultural production areas. More than half of the regional agricultural output occupies. In addition, the Tonegawa River flows in the southwest of the jurisdiction, and the Kinugawa River and Kogai River flow through it, and fertile paddy fields spread in the river basin. In addition to paddy rice, wheat, soybeans, and buckwheat account for 60 to 70% of the planted area in this prefecture. Production of and progress in land-use agriculture. In terms of livestock, producers of "Hitachi Beef" account for 25% of the entire prefecture, and designated producers of the prefecture's brand pork "Rose Pork" account for 80%. A producer in Bando City serves as the chairman of the promotion council, and beef cattle and pig farming are thriving in this area. The total number of farm households in the western part of the prefecture has decreased by more than 50% to 20,182 over the 25 years from 1995 to 2020. In particular, the number of commercial farm households has decreased from 31,605 in 1995 to 10,472 in 2020, one-third. Decreased to In addition, among commercial farmers, the percentage of full-time farmers whose household income is based on farm income is 26.4% (2020), and this percentage has remained the same since 2000. Decreased by 54% from 6,417 units to 2,926 units. The jurisdiction seems to be proud of its mission to stably supply safe, secure and high-quality Chinese cabbage, which is required as a production area boasting the largest production volume in Japan. In addition, it seems that they are working to establish a position as a production center that will serve as a supply base for Chinese cabbage. In recent years, while problems such as residual pesticides on agricultural products have emerged, JA Group Ibaraki publishes its production history on its website so that it can provide safe and secure agricultural products to consumers. Furthermore, in order to strengthen the traceability system of fruits and vegetables, it seems that they regularly hold seminars on bookkeeping of production history to promote safe and secure Chinese cabbage. The shipping destinations are mainly wholesale companies in the Keihin area, and it seems that they are also widely shipped to Tohoku, Keihanshin, Hokkaido, etc. As an initiative in recent years, in cooperation with Zen-Noh Ibaraki Prefecture Headquarters West VF Station, contract transactions have been carried out mainly for processing work such as pickles traders, and it seems that they have been working since 1996 in the old days. It seems that it is working closely with JA's designated wholesale company and VF station to secure customers and promote contract transactions to expand sales. The green ball cabbage introduced this time is a ball type and weighs about 1 kg. The season is from April to May, and it seems that it is cultivated mainly in Ibaraki and Nagano prefectures in Japan. Since it is vulnerable to the cold, it tends to rarely appear in winter. The feature is that the leaves are firmly rolled up to the inside, and the inside is green and glossy. Also, it is soft for its thickness. In a small form, it is the brand name of cabbage. Nutrients are the same as ordinary cabbage, but carotene seems to contain twice as much as ordinary cabbage and about 1.2 times as much potassium. Ibaraki Prefecture is the fourth largest cabbage producing area in Japan, and most of it seems to be concentrated in the western part of the prefecture where JA is located. In order to promote advantageous sales of cabbage produced in Ibaraki Prefecture, the "Ibaraki Prefecture West Area Agricultural Promotion Council" was organized at 4JA (Kita Tsukuba, Joso Hikari, Iwai and Ibaraki Mutsumi) in the west area of the prefecture, and every year in June and November. It seems that they are holding tasting events twice at Daejeon Market. First ceremonial offering of rice by newly-enthroned Emperor (court rituals held to pray for the well-being of the country and the people and bumper crops: A series of ceremonies will be held on May 8, 2019, three of the Imperial Palace. At the Palace Sanctuaries, His Majesty the Emperor tells the ancestors and gods of the imperial family about the date of the coronation and the central ritual. Probably because of the prestigious connection between the production area and the producer. The Joso Hikari Agricultural Cooperative (JA Joso Hikari) supports the farming and living of its members in two cities and one town, Joso City, Shimotsuma City, and Yachiyo Town, Ibaraki Prefecture. In the jurisdiction, the production of fruits and vegetables such as Chinese cabbage, pears, and watermelons and pig farming are flourishing, centering on the production of rice. In particular, pear production in Shimotsuma City has formed a major market-shipping production area that makes use of the organizational strength to ship almost all of it to the market. In Ibaraki Prefecture, which is the second largest producer of pears in Japan, Shimotsuma City is famous as one of the largest pear producing areas in the prefecture. However, in recent years, the consumption of pears has decreased due to consumers' departure from fruits, and the market price has been sluggish. Shimotsuma City is not an attractive production area for young producers because the name of “Shimotsuma Pear” is low in the market, and there are problems such as the aging of producers due to lack of successors and the decrease in yield due to aging trees. It seems. We aim to raise the name of Shimotsuma Pear and make it a pear that can be selected by the market. With that in mind, young producers and JA Joso Hikari first changed the soil preparation, such as using high-quality organic materials (horse manure) in a unified manner, and used eco-friendly pheromone agents as a way to prevent pests. Worked on. In 2008, a volunteer young producer formed the “Shimotsuma Pear PR Project Team”. We launched “Shimotsuma Kanjuku Pear”, which is particular about the texture and the original flavor of the pear. It is said that the producers themselves negotiated the transaction price directly with the domestic mass retailer buyers and put effort into the production area PR such as tasting PR at the store and holding a pear hunting event. The popularity of Shimotsuma Pear has risen, and the market price has gradually increased. Producers said around June 2018 that they were able to revitalize the production area. On the other hand, in anticipation of a decrease in domestic consumption in the future, it seems necessary to consider exports and decided to aim to develop overseas sales channels. Participated in the trade fair “SME Thailand Expo” held in Thailand in September 2013. We investigated taste preferences and suggested purchase prices using a tasting questionnaire. In October of the same year, 660 kg was exported to Singapore and a tasting PR was conducted locally, but the transaction ended in a single year. In July 2014, we visited Japanese restaurants in Bangkok, Thailand and held business talks. However, the amount of pears that could be exported remained small at 130 kg. It is said that the turning point came when “Jetro” Ibaraki opened in June 2014 while exports were sluggish. I was introduced to the “JETRO” business meeting in Malaysia held in September of the same year and entered immediately. Participated in advance business negotiation skill seminars and learned how to present prices and transaction conditions to overseas buyers. At the business meeting, I was able to meet Japanese company buyers who are interested in Japanese pears. In October of the same year, he also participated in the “JETRO” business meeting in Thailand. I got a good feeling that any business talk would lead to a transaction, but after returning to Japan, I did not receive a reply even if I sent an e-mail to an overseas buyer, so I was consulted by the director of JETRO Ibaraki. He immediately made an international call to the buyer to confirm his intention to trade, and as a result, he was able to export 260 kg of pears to Malaysia. However, he was still worried that the transaction would end in a single year. In April 2015, JETRO Ibaraki conducted a project to invite overseas buyers from Malaysia and Thailand. It seems that they realized the high quality by having them inspect the production site as well as the business negotiations. In addition, he thought that it was important to increase opportunities to actually meet with overseas buyers in order to continue transactions, and he said that he decided to go abroad directly when deciding price negotiations and export schedules. As a result, it was able to increase exports to 6.7 tons to Malaysia and 1.3 tons to Thailand. When I felt the need to develop a new export partner country in order to realize a further increase in exports, I was informed that the import of Japanese pears would be lifted in Vietnam. Aiming at January 2017, when the import ban will be lifted, the garden registration will be carried out ahead of the rest of the country. It seems that a trial export was carried out in March of the same year. In July of the same year, he participated in a business meeting hosted by JETRO in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, and was promoted to many local retailer buyers for tasting. In Vietnam, we challenged to deal with local buyers and expanded to export 105 tons(105000 kgs)in the first year. Regarding local sales promotion, it is said that local consumers have received a great deal of interest by utilizing the “Japan Fair 2017 Ibaraki Prefecture Pear Promotion Event” held by JETRO in Ho Chi Minh City in September of the same year. Until now, we have been focusing on local sales promotion, increasing pear fans by picking pears for inbound tourists, and aiming for a production area selected from overseas. Business: Collection and shipment of fruits (pears, grapes, etc.) and vegetables, sales, market development, etc. Purpose: Export, Target countries / regions: Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Canada, Indonesia. “Long, slender eggplant club” : JA Joso Hikari: Agricultural production is broadly divided into rice-growing areas in the east and upland-growing areas in the western Sarushima plateau. In the past, paddy rice, wheat, upland rice, and Pear were actively produced. Since the period of high economic growth, vegetable production has increased as a suburban production area in response to the increase in urban population. The main production of Chinese cabbage was planted shortly after the war, and the production center was formed in earnest with the establishment of the vegetable price stabilization system in 1966. Currently, in addition to Chinese cabbage, horticultural crops such as lettuce, cabbage, and melon are actively produced, and vegetables account for nearly 60% of the sales of agricultural and livestock products, rice field. In addition, since the 1965's, there was a period when contract cultivation of leaf tobacco and tomatoes for processing was actively carried out in the jurisdiction, and since there are many production area markets and purchasers, it can be said that it is a production area familiar to contract transactions. Eggplants are rotated with other vegetables to avoid continuous cropping, and are also produced in combination with winter vegetables (Chinese cabbage, lettuce, cabbage, etc.). Considering that the market price continues to be sluggish and the price is not reflected even if differentiation is attempted, the ratio of contract transactions to the total shipment volume of long, slender eggplant is reduced to about 30% in order to diversify the risk of farm management. I want to. The association at the time of 2008 was composed of six producers as a subcommittee that responded to processing and commercial demand. At the “3rd Domestic Vegetable Production and Utilization Expansion Excellent Business Award” held on March 23, 2010, contract transactions were carried out for 7 years through strong cooperation between the three parties; long, slender eggplant club, National Federation of Agricultural Cooperatives Ibaraki Prefecture Headquarters Horticultural Department VF (Vegetable Fruit) Station (hereinafter, “Zen-Noh Ibaraki Prefecture Headquarters VFS”), Maruhachi Co., Ltd., in order to reduce distribution costs. Introduced a shipping form suitable for processing and commercial use, introduced cultivation technology that enables stable shipping for a long period of time, established a system for stable supply throughout the year in cooperation with production areas in other prefectures, and labor effort by simplifying standards. In recognition of its mitigation, it has been awarded the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Production Bureau Director's Award. It originated in India today and is cultivated in China around the 5th and 6th centuries. It was introduced to Japan around the 8th century. It was introduced to Europe in the 13th century and in North America in the 16th century, and it seems that it was not as important as other vegetables. Is it from a beautiful outline? In the Edo period, the technology to make the first eggplant in a little bit started. It seems that the shogunate issued a ban because it was bought and sold at such a high price. When it was introduced to Japan, it was called Kunlun Purple Gourd (Indian Purple Gourd). Cultivation begins under the name “Rangoku Eggplant” in the Shosoin document of the Nara period. It seems that it has reached the present with a semi-forced pry that it is converted from good taste in summer to “make” and “live” and is auspicious. The harvest time and season are from July to October. The decisive difference from the eggplants on the market is the green stems and calyx. It is a place where there are few seeds, the flesh is tight, and it does not easily crumble. It seems that there are 180 varieties of eggplant in Japan, probably because it has been cultivated in Japan for a long time. By the way, it is said that there are more than 1000 varieties in the world. “Slender eggplant”, A variety that is vertically longer than the ‘Senryo eggplant’. Since there is no bulge that protrudes long under the calyx (the part of the neck without seeds), it is possible to take a large number of the same size when sliced into round slices. Since the waistline is short, it does not easily collapse and looks good. Although it varies slightly depending on the place of origin, it gives the impression that the skin is relatively thinner than ordinary eggplants. “Joso City, Ibaraki Prefecture”, Located in the southwestern part of the prefecture, within 55 km from the city center. Tsukuba City / Tsukubamirai City is adjacent to the east, and Bando City is adjacent to the west. The north borders Yachiyo Town and Shimotsuma City, respectively. It extends about 20 km from north to south and about 10 km from east to west. I heard that the area is 123.64 km2. The altitude is about 5 to 24 m, and it has a Pacific climate.

It is an evergreen, beautiful and powerful foliage, and is deeply rooted in the region. It is also planted as a hedge for wind and fire protection. Even, hard and sticky materials are often used for materials such as agricultural equipment. Since ancient times, he has been closely associated with daily life and has supported everyone. Cerasus Mill., It is a representative of Japanese flowers and is popular because of the beauty of the flowers. In particular, Cerasus jamasakura, which grows naturally on the plateau, is regarded as a symbol of agriculture. Since ancient times, it has been cherished with a deep connection to the lives of farmers.

We hope that the city will become a famous place for Cherry Blossoms again. Horornis diphone, A beautiful cry that conveys early spring. It is a familiar bird that has been called poetry since ancient times.The natural environment is good, and it seems that the cry is often heard even in urban areas. It is suitable for a city aiming for a natural city that is in harmony with such a beautiful environment. Joso Kinugawa River Fireworks Festival : It has been popular with the citizens for many years as a summer tradition. Since 2008, the name has been changed to the current name and the event has been held. The ten thousand fireworks are a masterpiece, and I have visited them several times.

Prior to this, Shimotsuma Town, Taiho Village, and Tobanoe Village were merged on April 1, effectively merging one town and six villages. Then, on January 1, 2006, it merged with Chiyokawa Village, Yuki District and continues to the present day. In addition, the history of this region is old, and it is said that people have lived there for about 10,000 years, but the place name of “Shimotsuma” first appeared in the literature in 935, “Wamyo Ruijusho.” Furthermore, it was not until the Kamakura Period that the word SHIMOTSUMA was written, and from that time to the present, it occupies an important position as the center of the west of the prefecture and has contributed to the region. Located in the southwestern part of the prefecture, about 60 km from Tokyo. It borders Chikusei City in the north, Joso City in the south, Tsukuba Science City and Chikusei City in the east, and Yachiyo Town in Yuki District in the west. Located at 139 degrees 58 minutes east longitude and 36 degrees 11 minutes north latitude, at an altitude of 23.40 m, it is famous as a garden city blessed with greenery and water. With a total area of 80.88 km2, it has a rectangular shape close to a square, most of which is formed of relatively fertile land, with a sand swamp in the center, the Kokai River in the east, and the Kinugawa River in the west, with abundant water resources. The average temperature in summer is 24 ℃, the average temperature in winter is 4 ℃, and the average precipitation is 175 mm in summer and 40 mm in winter. Mild climate. Mainly complex management that combines fruit trees (pears, etc.), vegetables (watermelon, Chinese cabbage, etc.) and livestock (pig farming, beef cattle, etc.) with paddy rice as the axis. Ibaraki Prefecture is one of the most popular pig farming areas in Japan, and Shimotsuma is especially famous as a famous production area. Since the pig farming industry has been active for a long time, there are many butcher shops in the city, focusing not only on meat but also on processing, and each shop is competing for taste. Pears, which represent the taste of autumn, are a specialty of the producers, and their main varieties are red pears, such as Kosui with plenty of sweetness, Hosui Pears with a slight acidity, and Niitaka Pears with large and soft fruits. Among them, “Shimotsuma Sweet and ripe Pear”, which is a limited-time shipment of Kosui Pears fully ripe on the tree, is a gem. After two years of trial production, "Pear Liqueur" that makes the most of the delicate scent of Kosui Pear is also recommended for consumers. Blessed with water, land and climate, it is valuable as one of the leading rice fields in the prefecture. “Koshihikari rice” produced in the city is well-received by consumers as delicious and decorates the table. “Milky Queen rice”, which is now widely produced and has a pleasant texture, is said to have originated in Shimotsuma and is famous as a representative variety. In addition, while working on the development of processed agricultural products such as local beer, natto, ham, and sausage using locally produced agricultural products, we will also ship to the agricultural products direct sales offices of “Roadside Station” and “Yasuragi no Sato” Producing area consumption is being promoted. “Tabanka Festival” : It is a strange festival where you can get rid of disasters by bathing in sparks that can only be seen here in Japan. It is said that its origin is a drama of the fact that when the Daihoji-Temple Bettobo Kenryoin broke out in 1370 (Oan 3), the fire was extinguished using “Tatami; Japanese straw floor covering” and “Nabebuta; Pot lid”. It is said to be a drama of the story. Daiho Hachimangu(大宝; 主祭神: 誉田別命; 応神天皇; 足仲彦命; 仲哀天皇; 気長足姫命; 神功皇后) is famous as the oldest Hachimangu in the Kanto region. This Tabanka Festival, which is held here on September 12th and 14th every year, is also known as the “Wax Gourd Festival” and presents the wax gourd to the shrine. On the tatami mats arranged in a tomoe shape in front of the shrine and the pot lid in the center, “Kawarake (flat plate)” with rice and winter gourd is placed. It is said that a young man in white costume, who is the role of the festival, throws it in front of the hall of worship. It is said that the person who picks up the crushed Kawarake fragments at this time does not get sick, and the worshipers compete to pick them up. It is said that the name came from the banging sound that was emitted at this time. Next, the role holding Torch, who received the torch fire of Great Taimatsu, runs around the precincts while swinging around. It is said that if you are exposed to the sparks of fire, you will be spared the disaster of fire, and worshipers and others will be bathed in cheers. 国登録有形文化財 : 建造物 : 二水会館(旧水海道町役場), 水海道天満町, 常総市, 平成9年12月12日. 五木宗レンガ蔵, 水海道元町, 個人, 平成12年 4月28日, 建造物 : 武道館(旧水海道小学校雨天体操場兼講堂), 水海道栄町, 常総市, 平成15年 7月1日. 下妻市教育委員会 2017 “市内遺跡7” 下妻市埋蔵文化財調査報告書13 : 千草B古墳群第3次; 高道祖字千草, 工業団地造成, 古墳, 古墳時代, 古墳6, 溝状遺構10, 土坑14, 性格不明遺構12, 縄文土器, 土師器, 埴輪, 土師質土器, 磁器. 山神西遺跡; 皆葉字柴野, 個人住宅建築, 集落, 奈良 / 平安時代, 溝状跡1, 土師器, 須恵器, 土師質土器. 柴崎遺跡第3次; 村岡字柴崎, 個人住宅建築, 集落, 縄文, 古墳時代, 溝状遺構1, 土坑2, ピット状遺構3, 縄文土器, 土師器, 磁器.

During the Nara Period, the Kinugawa River, which had been winding around the west side of the Kawanishi District, was renovated to form the current Kinugawa River. In the Heian Period, iron making was carried out at Ozaki Maeyama, farm tools and weapons were made, and a samurai corps was formed. It was around this time that the Taira no Masakado turmoil occurred, and even in Yachiyo Town, Kuriyama, Ashigaya, Hiratsuka, etc. are treated as battlefields. At the end of the Warring States period, the eastern half of the town, including Sugenoya, Waka, and Ozaki, was under the control of Mr. Tagaya, and from the north to the west was under the control of Mr. Yuki. In the Edo Period, due to the change of lords, the Yachiyo area came to have a complicated control of Mibu territory, Koga territory, imperial fief, Hatamoto domain and so on. In the Kyoho period(1716-1736)in the middle of the Edo Period, Iinuma and Yamakawa Swamp will be reclaimed and Yoshida irrigation will be completed. After the abolition of the feudal clan after the Meiji Restoration, the municipality system was enforced in 1889, and the old villages of Anjo, Shimoyuki, Nakayuki, Nishitoyoda, and Kawanishi were born, establishing the foundation of the autonomy system. After that, with the aim of expanding the transportation economic zone and strengthening local administration and finance with the rapid growth after the war, in 1955, the former five villages and Sanwa village Narita merged to form Yachiyo village. With the enforcement of the town system in 1972, it became Yachiyo Town. It is located in the center of the Kanto Plain, southwest of Ibaraki Prefecture, about 60 km to the capital Tokyo, about 70 km to the capital city of Mito, and about 20 km to Tsukuba, a city where science and technology are concentrated. It is adjacent to Shimotsuma City across the Kinugawa River in the east, Koga City in the west, Yuki City in the north, Joso City and Bando City in the south, and National Highway No. 125 runs east to west in the center of the town. The terrain is 7.7 km east-west, 12.4 km north-south, and the total area is 58.99 km2. The terrain is generally flat, with paddy fields open in the eastern part and upland fields in the western part, with the mountain river flowing through the central part of the town as the boundary, and a small amount of flatland forest remains. Wide area above sea level (eastern end) 139 ° 51' (West end) 139 ° 57'(South end) 36 ° 07' (North end) 36 ° 14'58.99 km2 (East and West) 7.7 km (North and South) 12.4 km (Maximum) 29.8 m (Minimum) 18.7 m. Regarding the weather, the average annual temperature is around 14 ℃, and the annual rainfall is around 1,250 mm. In winter, the northwest monsoon blows, but the amount of snowfall is extremely small and the climate is warm. Taking advantage of the flat and fertile land, warm climate, and location conditions near the capital, agriculture is regarded as the core industry, and mainly vegetables, rice cultivation, fruit trees, livestock, and other suburban agriculture are being developed, and the main areas of the metropolitan area. Famous as a food production base. In addition, it is one of the leading horticultural production areas in the prefecture, and among them, Chinese cabbage boasts the largest production volume in Japan, and net-based melons are also cultivated, and pears have been designated as a brand production area(1992; Akuto Pear))in the prefecture. The town boasts one of the largest melon production in the country, and when the time comes, the scent of sweet melon overflows throughout the town. In recent years, in addition to outdoor cultivation, we have also adopted house cultivation to make sweet and delicious melons. From May to June, many varieties such as Prince, Kinsho, Homerun, Takami, and Quincy are cultivated as spring melons. Among them, Takami Melon, which is the most produced in the town, is a large ball, juicy and has a high sugar content, has a long-lasting meat quality, and is often used as a souvenir and is appreciated. From September to October, Earl's melon is cultivated as an autumn-suppressing melon. Earl's melon is cultivated with strict control of temperature, humidity, water, etc., and only one fruit is produced per plant, giving it a rare and luxurious texture with a smooth texture. As the name Akuto Pear suggests, it grew up in the sober land of the Kinugawa River, bathed in the pure sunlight. Kosui is cultivated in August, Hosui in September, Akizuki in October, and Niitaka. Yachiyo Chinese cabbage is a hot pot dish that is often eaten in the cold season, and is a supporting role of the hot pot. The town boasts the highest production in Japan, producing autumn-winter Chinese cabbage and spring Chinese cabbage, and harvesting and shipping peaks from late October to mid-June. Autumn-winter Chinese cabbage has a softer fiber when exposed to frost, and the sugar content of the leaves increases, so the sweetness also increases. Spring Chinese cabbage is characterized by its freshness and fluffiness. Vitamin C is not lost even when salted, and good intestinal bacteria such as lactic acid bacteria are produced, so there are great expectations for an intestinal regulation effect. In addition to melons, pears and Chinese cabbage, the town produces a lot of delicious vegetables throughout the four seasons. In addition, because it is flat and has good water access, rice cultivation is also popular, and the far-reaching golden countryside occupies about 40% of the total crop harvest area. Chinese cabbage pickled in kimchi, which uses the highest production of Chinese cabbage in Japan, countryside miso, which uses locally produced soybeans, and rich, handmade natural brewed soy sauce that takes advantage of the blessed climate and water quality, have gained popularity for consumption. In addition, there are many flavors of hometown such as handmade dried natto and chewy udon, which gives a simple taste. 県指定建造物 : 佛性寺観音堂 / 仁王門(附観音堂宮殿1基 / 棟札1枚), 2棟, 栗山, 佛性寺, 平29.12.25, 県指定彫刻 : 木心乾漆如来形坐像(付乾漆断片64片), 1躯, 栗山, 仏性寺, 昭57.3.4, 県指定彫刻 : 木造十一面観音立像, 1躯, 大字八町, 新長谷寺. 八千代町教育委員会, 株式会社地域文化財コンサルタント 2009 "菱毛道西遺跡(大字平塚)" 八千代町埋蔵文化財調査報告書13 : 株式会社エフピコ工場建設に伴う遺跡の発掘調査, 工場建設, 集落, 古墳時代, 竪穴住居跡, 土師器: 坏, 甕他, 須恵器: 坏, 甕他, 石製品: 紡錘車他, 土製品: 土玉, 土錘他, 集落, 平安時代, 竪穴住居跡, 土師器: 坏, 甕他, 須恵器: 坏, 甕他, 灰釉陶器: 高台坏埦, 鉄製品: 釘他, 瓦片, 羽口. The Ishige district of Joso City (former Ishishita Town) is a large rice paddy area with the Kinu River in the center, the Kokai River in the east, and the Iinuma River in the west. On the other hand, utilizing this rich land, vegetable management is also actively carried out, and various high-quality vegetables such as Chinese cabbage, lettuce, and zucchini are produced. In particular, the cucumbers produced in the Ishige area have been popular with consumers for nearly 60 years under the brand name of "Sengoku Cucumber", one of the prefecture's leading long-established production areas. "Sengoku cucumber" is cultivated in the adjacent former Chiyogawa village (now Shimotsuma city) and the former Ishishita town. It was named after 1000 koku of rice harvesting and 10000 koku of rice harvesting. The production area has a long history, starting with open-field net cultivation in the 1955s, shifting to greenhouse cultivation in steel-framed greenhouses in the late 1955s, overcoming the oil crisis and two floods in the Showa and Heisei eras, and in 2019, 21 households was working on cultivation of 28 ha. In the production area, in order to stably deliver delicious cucumbers to consumers, we combine a warm cropping type (harvest period: January to June) and a controlled cropping type (harvest period: September to November) and ship them every year. Combining cultivation techniques cultivated over many years of experience with soil preparation that actively uses organic materials, this excellent agricultural product has received high praise from actual consumers, including the market, for its taste and quality. In the production area, it seems that they are working on contract cultivation of cucumbers that are harvested in the morning, in order to make the taste of "Sengoku cucumber" even more prominent and to let consumers enjoy the rich aroma and taste. Each farmer puts the cucumbers harvested in the early morning into containers, collects and ships them, and arranges them in supermarkets in Tokyo on the same day to deliver them to the dining table is increasing. Cucumbers are said to be difficult to differentiate from other products, but the tireless efforts of producers have led to the production of high value-added cucumbers. Like other production areas, this production area seems to be facing the issue of having to take measures such as cultivation area and revitalization due to the aging of producers. As part of this countermeasure, a study group called "Green Mates" has been organized within the subcommittee, centered on the young producer Shichinohe, and is working hard on research and technical study on a daily basis. In recent years, in particular, efforts such as environmental control such as the application of carbon dioxide gas and trial cultivation using "Amblyseius swirskii Athias-Henriot." Adults are 0.3 mm long and pale yellow in color. Eggs are about 0.15 mm in size, milky white, and prefer to lay eggs on the tips of hairs on the underside of plant leaves. It often preys on eggs and larvae of whiteflies and 1st instar larvae of thrips (it cannot prey on 2nd instar larvae and adults of thrips that are larger than itself). It prefers high temperatures and humidity, and its optimum temperature for activity is 28°C. It can survive by eating plant pollen even when there are no pests to feed on, so it goes well with green peppers, which have a lot of pollen. On the other hand, in tomatoes, tomatine (C50H83NO21: an alkaloid glycoside with a structure similar to that of solanine contained in the sprouts of potato tubers during storage. Then, it is toxic to humans, but it has recently been found that tomatine is an ingredient that insects dislike, and it seems that it is difficult to use it because plants dislike the substance secreted by synthesizing tomatine to prevent insects from eating it. Is expected to spread and revitalize the entire production area. Nurtured by continuous high technology and rich land, it will continue to be popular with consumers as a delicious cucumber that represents Ibaraki.



Mini-tougan is a vegetable that is popular for being easier to handle because it is smaller than normal tougan. Also, although it is harvested from summer to autumn, it can be stored for a long time, so it can be found in stores until the end of the year. In fact, many households use it as a osechi dish. It is characterized by its low fiber content and mild taste. When cooked, such as by simmering it in broth, the texture becomes thicker, and the soup soaks into the inside in a short period of time, so when you put it in your mouth, the flavor spreads. A typical Japanese cooking method is simmering, such as minced meat thick.


seed (Asahi hybrid): Mini winter melon "Komachan". Securing a higher temperature: A soil temperature of 25°C or higher and moderate moisture are required until germination. Because it is a thermophilic plant, the optimal temperature for growth is around 17-30°C. If the temperature stays below 15°C during the cultivation period, the growth will drop significantly, so be careful not to sow early. Plants with good rooting: Based on general tunnel and open field cultivation. Maintain a soil temperature of 18°C ​​or higher at the time of planting. In the pruning method, 2 to 4 vines are arranged, and 2 fruits are set on each vine. Natural crossing using flower-visiting insects is possible, but in order to ensure fruiting, use bees or hand-crossing for artificial pollination. Additional fertilization is applied with liquid fertilizer from the start of fruiting and enlargement, and after that, liquid fertilizer is applied according to the vigor of the grass. Harvesting is possible about 25 to 30 days after mating.


Yachiyo Green Village keiyu palace (Matsumoto): About 20 minutes by car from Sakai-Koga Interchange. A complex facility in the western part of Yachiyo Town. In addition to outdoor facilities such as camping grounds and promenades, there is a hot spring facility on the right side of the building "keiyu palace" on the premises, and it is also possible to use the natural hot spring. The spring quality is a sodium chloride hot spring, which is said to be effective in relieving neuralgia, joint pain, and sensitivity to cold. In addition, it is difficult to cool down after bathing and has a beautiful skin effect. You can enjoy hot springs in two baths, an open-air bath and a jet bath.
