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