It is said that the dictation of Masanobu Kosaka, a military commander who served as an aide to Shingen, was written down by Masanobu's man, Soujiro Kasuga, and edited by Kagenori OBATA（It seems that he absconding in 1595 and traveled around the world to learn military art. He later belonged to the East Army of the Naomasa Ii Army and challenged the Battle of Sekigahara.）in the Edo period. The “Koyo Gunkan” (record of the military exploits of the Takeda family). I heard that it was made by It consists of a main volume consisting of 20 volumes and the final volume of the upper and lower volumes. Up to 18 volumes are mainly Shingen's achievements, and the remaining 2 volumes are mainly Katsuyori's achievements. The history of the Takeda clan's battle from Shingen to Katsuyori, family law, military law, and the customs and attitudes of the Koshu samurai are described in detail. Time changed, the Edo Shogunate was opened, and it seems that it was read carefully by the samurai of the Edo period. It was used to inspire and discipline oneself. It is a fact that while making the image of the samurai depicted as an ideal image, he sought out what the samurai should be in a peaceful world and elaborated the world-class spiritual culture of Bushido. What is talked about is martial arts on the battlefield, having dauntless courage work and inseparable. However, instead of a world without war, our close ancestors not only act as warriors, but also as officials of the public administrative organizations (shogunate government and clan) that govern the territory, thereby taking on a new social role. I will find out. That is, the functions of security and police, the creation of laws, the development of a court system, and enlightenment activities. These are samurai-like roles, but they are not limited to the development of transportation infrastructure such as the restoration of roads and bridges, hydraulic irrigation, newly reclaimed rice field development, cultivated land improvement, fire prevention and disaster prevention, disaster recovery, etc. It will also be responsible for fields such as breeding industry, hospitals and pharmaceutical affairs. It is conspicuous that he deceives people, thinks only about his own interests every day, forgets etiquette, and loses his respect for others. As a patriot with a global perspective, Inazo Nitobe (establishment of the foundation of Taiwan's sugar industry, proposal to eliminate racial discrimination, etc., 1862-1933) always considers Japan's prosperity, friendship between Japan and the United States, and world peace. Continued to send out with the aim of realizing. His life may be due to his respect for the good old the Soul of Japan, which values ​​duty, honor and homeland. He is an agricultural scholar and educator from Iwate prefecture, and has served as Deputy Secretary-General of the International Federation, President of Tokyo Woman's Christian University, and Professor of Agriculture, Tokyo Imperial University. It seems that the old samurai valued righteousness and were ashamed to move on the profit and loss account and calculation.

Contributed to Hakubunkan “Taiyo” Vol. 1, No. 5 on May 5, 1895. From “Yuku Kumo”, a work by Ichiyo (Ms. Natsuko) in his later years (23 years old). Lamenting her self and her future without her freedom, he sent her thoughts to her, who resembled her life, not because she entrusted her hope to escape from her destiny. However, without her illusion, she gives up on her reality and does not respond, and her pondered love chills over time and returns to her reality. I miss the loneliness of tearing like a cloud. My adaptive family (adopted child of a sake brewery) is Nakahagihara in Ofuji Village, and as far as I can see, Mt. Tenmokuzan（Tano at the southern foot of the mountain is where Katsuyori-Ko suicided）it shows a blemishes, it's cold in the winter without hesitation, and the fish and the fish and the fish take the Gori（19.6364 km）road to Kofu, and the sliced ​​raw fish of the tuna is finally in the mouth. Higuchi entered the Haginoya coaching school of Utako Nakajima at the age of 15 and learned waka poetry from the Keien school (represented by Kageki Kagawa (1768-1843), a poet in the late Edo period). His father died in the year, and he decided to become a professional writer in order to support the family's livelihood as a female poet. She is said to have been inspired by the fact that Kaho, who belongs to the same school, announced her “Yabu no Uguisu” and was welcomed by the literal circles. In 1891, she hit the gate of the exclusive writer Nakarai of “Tokyo Asahi Shimbun” and asked for guidance on novel production, and the following year she published her maiden work “Yamizakura” in the first magazine “Musashino” run by Tosui. In 1893, recognizing the difficulty of using the novel as a livelihood, he moved from Hongo Kikuzaka Town to Shitaya Ryusenji Town, which borders the Yoshiwara red-light district, and opened a general store. However, he went to Edo at the end of the Tokugawa shogunate, and although his father became a status of samurai and became concentric, he became an official working for the Tokyo prefectural government at the time of the Meiji Restoration, and was also engaged in the financial and real estate businesses at the same time.

【Product name】

Shine Muscat

【Type】

Vitis L.

【Production area and jurisdiction】

Yamanashi City, Yamanashi Prefecture Koshu City Fuefuki City Kasugai Area (excluding Shizume, Ko, Tokujo District)（JA Fruit Yamanashi）

【Origin of the name】

Muscat comes from “musk” and means the strength and splendor of the scent. Also, when the color is ripe, it is close to yellowish green, so it shines.

【Major features】

“Shine Muscat”: A large, good-tasting diploid grape grown by crossing “Grape Akitsu No. 21” (Stuben × Muscat of Alexandria) with “White South”. The skin color is yellowish green, the flesh is disintegrating and hard, and the scent is Muscat scent. It is a new variety that was registered in 2006 as a new variety, which was born in the Fruit Tree Tea Industry Research Division of the National Agriculture and Food Research Organization. It's been only 15 years since it first appeared on the market. Since 2014, the cultivation area has become the fourth largest among grape varieties, and its popularity is rapidly expanding nationwide. It is a beautiful yellow-green large grape that can be produced without seeds. It has a sweet and muscat scent, and its high quality is attracting attention, as it has a thin skin and an excellent texture that can be eaten together with the skin and crumbles in the mouth. In addition, it has excellent characteristics that farmers can cultivate with peace of mind, such as easy cultivation and good storage of harvested grapes. It is a yellowish green that matures at about the same time as Kyoho. It is weak against Elsinoe ampelina, but has a certain resistance to downy mildew (Peronosporaceae: It is a water-type biotrophic phytopathogen containing 21 genera including more than 600 species. Parasitic on host plants as intercellular mycelium using Haustoria to invade host cells.) and strong resistance to downy mildew. Cold resistance is evaluated as Kyoho. The trees are strong and the yield seems to be higher than that of Kyoho. The grain weight varies depending on the cultivation method, but it seems that it can be cultivated to about 13g. It is easy to chew (disintegrate), has a hard meat quality, and has a high sugar content of 18% or more. The acid content is as low as 0.3-0.4g / 100 ml, and the aroma is Muscat aroma. In seedless cultivation, it is a little difficult to peel, but the skin is not thick and there is no astringency, so you can eat the whole skin. Like Kyoho, it generally does not split. It is harder to shed than Kyoho and tends to last longer. It seems that it can be produced as seedless grapes by spraying 200 ppm of streptomycin before flowering and dipping in inflorescence (fruit bunch) of 25 ppm of gibberellin at full bloom and 10 to 15 days after full bloom. Use about 4 cm at the tip of the spike. I heard that it is effective to add Fulmet solution at the time of the first gibberellin treatment to stabilize the grain formation. In an unheated house, seedless treatment (hormone treatment) on the lower 3.5 cm results in a triple bunch of grapes 10 cm long. Muscat, one of the representatives of historic fruits, is said to have loved Cleopatra. However, in Japan, where it rains heavily, it is difficult to grow European grapes such as Muscat, and the reality is that so-called Muscat-scented grapes have not been cultivated very often. It is a well-known fact that even when crossed with American grapes suitable for cultivation in Japan, the scent is generally peculiar to American grapes (similar to Kyoho and Campbell Early) and not the scent peculiar to Muscat. Meanwhile, “Shine Muscat” was cultivated by the National Agriculture and Food Research Organization over a period of about 30 years. It is growing rapidly as an epoch-making variety that can be cultivated in the open field in Japan while having the characteristics of European grapes that have a firm chewy muscat scent. Since it was registered as a variety in 2006, it has been attracting attention not only from grape farmers but also from consumers because of its deliciousness and ease of growing. However, because it was not supposed to be exported, the variety was not registered outside Japan. The International Convention for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants stipulates that fruit varieties registered outside the country should be registered within a certain period of time (6 years for grapes) after registration in the country, so the application was submitted in 2012. The deadline has passed. For this reason, there is a reality that it is legally cultivated outside Japan without the need for permission from Japan. The UPOV Convention stipulates basic principles such as protection conditions and contents of new varieties, minimum protection period, and preferential treatment for nationals. It was adopted in Paris, France in 1961, came into effect in 1968, and was significantly revised in 1978 and 1991. With the adoption of the new treaty draft at the treaty revision diplomatic conference, it is necessary to revise the relevant domestic laws corresponding to the treaty, and it is also reported that the seedling law revision bill will be submitted. Biotechnology has made dramatic progress in recent years, and is expected to become a core field of technological innovation in the 21st century, and the reputation of progress in Japan is rapidly increasing internationally. And it goes without saying that guaranteeing the rights of breeders is indispensable for sustaining this progress. In the past, it was repeatedly emphasized at the Diet deliberations related to the UPOV Convention and variety registration that the relationship between intellectual property rights and variety registration should be smoothly adjusted to avoid the harmful effects of dual administration. Not always satisfactory. It is an urgent task to summarize the conventional process at the opportunity of the revision of the UPOV Convention, clarify the goal, sort out the problems, and find the direction of the solution. Japanese politician. October 4, 1991, Submission Question No. 11, Question on the Protection of New Plant Species Proceedings, Submitter: Masao Yoshida. Former member of the House of Representatives of the Japan Socialist Party (1st term) and member of the House of Councilors (1st term). Only the minimum agreements in each country are stipulated, and breeders'rights (breeders' rights protected by the Seedling Law) must be acquired in each country. In other words, it does not mean that breeders' rights can be acquired internationally in a lump sum. Two years ago, in 2019, it was an international treaty to protect new seedlings, and 75 countries including Japan are members. Although many countries are members in Europe, the main member countries in Asia are Japan, China, South Korea, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. Agriculture has multiple functions such as national land, environmental conservation, and living environment as well as food supply. Looking only at the food supply aspect, it is possible to improve productivity by using chemical fertilizers and chemically synthesized pesticides. However, if too much chemical fertilizers and pesticides are used for that purpose, soil and rivers may be polluted and the ecosystem balance may be disturbed. It is certain that it can go around and adversely affect human health. “Environmental conservation type agriculture” is a sustainable agriculture that takes advantage of the material circulation function of agriculture, paying attention to harmony with productivity, and reducing the environmental load by using chemical fertilizers and pesticides through soil preparation. The use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides can pollute the land and destroy the ecosystem. It is good to plant cover crops (green manure) during the period when the crops are not cultivated for sustainable agricultural production in harmony with the environment. “Conservation Oriented Agriculture” : Organic farming, natural farming, alternative farming, low-input sustainable farming, etc. are included, but from the strictest standpoint of pesticide-free and chemical-free fertilizer cultivation, the use of chemical materials is not permitted at all. , There is a range to the position of reduced chemical fertilizer. The national government enacted the Sustainable Agriculture Law in 1999 to provide support by lending agricultural improvement funds to certified farmers and providing special measures for taxation of agricultural machinery. In addition, the law states that “agricultural production method with high sustainability” is “a rational agricultural production method that is recognized as contributing to the maintenance and promotion of the productivity of agricultural land derived from the nature of soil and other favorable farming environments.” Defined, specifically, technology related to the application of organic materials such as compost that has a high soil improvement effect, technology related to the application of fertilizer that has a high effect of reducing the application of chemically synthesized fertilizers, control of weeds and pests, etc. Among the technologies related to this, the ones that are highly effective in reducing the use of chemically synthesized pesticides are listed. GAP is an acronym for Good Agricultural Practice, which is usually translated as Good Agricultural Practice or Agricultural Production Process Management. GAP is like ISO (International Standard) and means the norms of production process control and hygiene control such as whether pesticides are used correctly, safe fertilizers are used, and they are washed with clean water. In addition, an agricultural management entity recognized as having cleared these norms by examination by a third-party organization can obtain GAP certification. Since GAP is a norm for process control, it is expected to have the effect of preventing problems and facilitating the investigation of the cause, compared to conventional result control. Now, let me introduce you to the climate and climate of Yamanashi. The shape of Yamanashi Prefecture is generally circular, with a length of about 90 km from east to west and north to south, and a total area of ​​4,465 km2. Except for the central Kofu basin, there are very few flat areas, and about 86% of the total area is mountainous. From the north to the east, the Kanto Mountains including Mt. Kobushi are connected, the Doshi Mountains and Misaka Mountains are connected to the south, the Akaishi Mountains to the west, and the steep mountains represented by Mt. Fuji in the south. The river basins in the prefecture are roughly divided into three first-class water systems, the Fuji River basin, the Sagami River basin, and the Tama River basin, which flow down from these mountains, and three second-class water systems, including Lake Motosu. It is located in the southern part of Fossa Magna (Shizuoka-Itoigawa Tectonic Line), and many fault branch lines are distributed around it. The oldest strata are the Shimanto Group, which was deposited from the Mesozoic to the Cenozoic Paleogene, and is distributed in the Southern Alps and the Kanto Mountains, and is subjected to severe folds. The next deposit was the Miocene Miocene Group of the Cenozoic Tertiary, which is mainly composed of green tuffs and is distributed in the Misaka Mountains and the Koma Mountains. Subsequently, from the Miocene to the Pliocene of the Cenozoic Era, the Fuji River Group centered on mudstone, sandstone, and conglomerate was deposited in the Gonan area. All of these are marine strata, and are fragile geology that is prone to collapse and landslides due to structural movements that accompany landing after formation. From the central part to the northern part of the prefecture, plutonic rocks (granite), which are thought to have invaded in the Tertiary period, are widely distributed. From the end of the Cenozoic III to the Quaternary, Mizugamori volcano, Kurofuji volcano, and Yatsugatake volcano are active one after another in the northern part of the Kofu basin, and these volcanic ejecta are deposited over plutonic rocks. The sediments in the Kofu basin are characterized by a predominant gravel layer and a small clay layer, indicating that the relative ground movements of the subsidence of the Kofu basin and the uplift of the surrounding mountains were intense. The climate is generally inland because it is surrounded by mountains, and there is a lot of rainfall in the summer, which is affected by the rainy season and typhoons. However, due to its complex terrain, its characteristics differ from region to region. I heard that the average temperature in Kofu is 15 degrees Celsius and the annual rainfall is 1,165.8 mm. Midai River hydraulic engineering business: The history of flood damage is old, and it is said that “Yamato Takeru no Mikoto was hit by flood damage at the time of the eastern expedition.” Is famous for having done. Shingen Takeda-Ko became the landlord of Kai at the age of 21 in 1541, but the following year, the Miteshi River flooded and the Kofu Basin became a riverbank. Having witnessed this, he felt the need for a hydraulic control project, and carried out hydraulic control work such as shogi heads and stone unloading, including the Shingen-Ko embankment, in an effort to enhance domestic affairs. These construction methods are said to be the ancestors of river and sabo engineering in Japan and are called the “Koshu Style River Defense Method”. At the top of the alluvial fan (Komaba, Minami-Alps City), Namoto was also built in a gantry pattern, and the flow was directed to the northeast. In Arino, Minami-Alps, a masonry embankment called Shogi-to was built to divide the torrent. About 500 m downstream, the water was split again by a shogi head to weaken the water force, and then joined the tributary Wappazawa. The somewhat weakened water force was merged with the Kamanashi River (Fuji River) and struck toward the high rocks on the opposite bank. Downstream to Takaiwa, a flat land extends from Ryuo Town to Kofu City, so a Shingen-Ko embankment was built to protect this. The earlier Midai River（Originating at Karamatsu Pass (GL = 1,650 m), which is connected to the Alps mountain range, it flows down Ashiyasu (formerly Ashiyasu Village) in Minami Alps from west to east and flows into the Kamanashi River (Fuji River). It is a 18.8 km first-class river. In the lower reaches, the Miteshigawa alluvial fan, which is known as one of Japan's three major alluvial fans, spreads, and one side of fruit tree farmland spreads out. On the other hand, in the mountains in the upper reaches, it seems that the mountain stream forms a V-shaped valley and has a steep mountain stream with a slope of January 10 or more.）, which diverged upstream, was merged with the water that bounced off the Takaiwa, and the water was controlled by the water so that the water could flow through the center of the river. Landslide that occurred in 2000 (Yumura district, Kofu city): It occurs prominently in the geology of the Neogene Miocene, and is characterized by being deeply involved in the tectonic line. The distribution area is concentrated in the middle basin of the Fuji River from Nishiyatsushiro District to Minamikoma District and the Tsurukawa River-Katsura River basin from Kitatsuru District to Otsuki City. The landslide prevention area is an area designated based on the “Landslide Prevention Law（1958 Law No. 30）”, and it seems that the act of inducing and promoting landslides is prohibited in this area as in the case of sabo designated areas. Mt. Fuji is a volcano that has grown through repeated large eruptions in the past. In recent years, it has been in a calm state, and the recent eruption dates back to the 1707 Hoei eruption in the middle of the Edo period, about 300 years ago. The life of a volcano is long, and the rest period of about 300 years is only a moment for the volcano, and it is possible that it will erupt in the near future. From October 2000 to February 2001, there were many “Low Frequency Earthquakes” on Mt. Fuji, which are thought to be caused by the movement of magma beneath Mt. Fuji. This indicates that Mt. Fuji is a living volcano, and it can be considered that the sleeping Mt. Fuji is in a rough state. However, since February 2001, the number of low-frequency earthquakes has decreased, and there seems to be no sign of an eruption so far, but peace of mind is forbidden. It is known that people have lived in the land of Yamanashi prefecture for about 30,000 years. Kai Genji was born in the 12th century, and Shingen Takeda-Ko aimed to unify the world during the Warring States period in the 16th century. When the seclusion was lifted in the 19th century, it changed from Kofu to Yamanashi in the first year of the Meiji era, and has been rapidly modernized to the present day. It has been about 30,000 years ago that people's activities have been recognized on the earth. The primitive society progresses from the stage of hunting, catching fish, and collecting nuts to the stage of rice cultivation, and the unevenness is integrated to form a country. From the end of the 4th century, the Daimaruyama Tomb and the Saikozuka / Maruyamazuka Tomb were built, and it is speculated that a large force existed in the Sone Hill Hills in the Nakamichi district of Kofu City. Yamanashi in the 8th century is called Kai Province and consists of 4 groups of “Yamanashi, Yashiro, Kokuma, Tsuru”. , It is said that it was near Ichinomiya Town. In the 12th century, the system of the ancient nation by the Kuge fluctuated, and it was the samurai who emerged from it. Around 1131, Minamoto no Yoshikiyo-Ko and Kiyomitsu-Ko's parents and children entered Kai Province and came to Kai Genji. Among Mr. Kai Genji, Mr. Takeda, Mr. Ogasawara, and Mr. Nanbu prospered until posterity. In the 16th century, Mr. Takeda developed as a warring lord, built the Tsutsuji-gasakikan and the castle in Kofu, and based on this, proceeded with the four neighboring routes, aiming to unify the world. When Mr. Takeda was destroyed in 1582, the rule of Kai Province was transferred to Oda, Toyotomi, and Tokugawa, and the Kofu Domain (Kunichu) and the Yamura Domain (Gunuchiho) were established under the Edo Shogunate, but in 1724 the Shogunate was established. It will be under direct control. The development of Koshu Kaido and Fuji River shipping promoted the distribution of goods and the influx of culture. In the 19th century, due to the contradiction of the shogunate system, a lot of riots occurred in various places, and the Tenpo riot（It originated in the Gunuchiho district (Tsuru) in the eastern part of Kai, and spread to the Kuninaka district, causing a nation-wide turmoil. Also known as the Gunuchiho riot, Kai whole country riot, and Koshu riot. Kai Province was made into an imperial fief in 1724, and was controlled by the Kofu duty number and the third daikan who had jurisdiction over the town of Kofu. In the Kuninaka region, which embraces the Kofu basin, the development of newly reclaimed rice fields progressed in the modern era and became a breadbasket. , Was sent to Edo through Fujikawa Ship Transport. On the other hand, since there is little cultivated land in the Gunuchiho region, which is a mountainous area, there is a strong dependence on inter-farm work such as mountain earning and production of Gunuchiho, and the necessary rice grains are from all over the country, Sagami Province, and Suruga Province. I relied on imports. During the Kansei era, Kofu wholesaler friends weakened, rice dealers in Kajikazawa inn (currently Kajikazawa, Fujikawa-cho) bought up and the number of rice grains exported as rice was increased, and merchants purchasing from Shinano also advanced, so the rice price There was a soaring price. In the middle of the night of August 17, 1836, a farmer in Shitatani Village broke the rice storehouse in Yamura Village, which started the turmoil. Yamura Village is loved by Tanimura Daikansho, a business trip camp of Ishiwa magistrate's office, but Sanai Hashimoto-Ko, a former clerk, is absent. The villages are cracked down and collected. On the other hand, at the same time as the destruction in Tanimura, Takeshichi (Mr. Jizaemon) in Shimowada Village, Tsuru District (Nanahomachi, Otsuki City), and Inume Village (Inume, Uenohara City) in the same county, Torizawa Village (Inume, Uenohara City) When they joined in (Otsuki City), they planned a strong appeal for a reduction in rice prices and became the head of the riot. In addition, Dr. Taijun, the village head of Kuronota Village (Kuronoda, Sasago Town, Otsuki City), drafted the platform. Mr. Takeshichi was 70 years old at the time of Tenpo 7th year. His family of five had a height of Rokuto Ichiishi, but it gradually decreased and he was engaged in a quiet business. He also said that he was a boss who followed uninhabited and unreliable people. Mr. Hyo（Hei）suke was 40 years old in 1836. His surname is Mr. Mizukoshi and he is a family of three. He runs a Edo period lodging for travellers at Inume-inn. His name is “Paddy shop”. The management of the paddy shop has deteriorated since its predecessor, and Mr. Hyosuke has issued a divorce letter to his wife during the uprising. The trends after the turmoil of both Takeshichi and Hyosuke will be described later. Mr. Takeshichi and Mr. Hyosuke borrowed and lent rice and gold from “Unsuitable People” for the relief of the poor on a five-year basis, and were represented by the Kuninaka Village (Kasugai Town, Fuefuki City) and Mr. Okuuemon family. The plan is to have wealthy farmers in the country stop buying rice and release rice grains into the county. Mr. Okuuemon Okugawa of Kumanodo Village is a grain dealer who sells rice grains to the county, and it is said that he bought up rice grains during the Tenmei famine and was recognized as the cause of the soaring rice prices in the county. When both of them urged the gathering of the peasants in the county and led the county, they set out for the whole country targeting Okuuemon in Kumano-do Village, Manriki-suji, Yamanashi District, and smashed them all over the road. I returned to the village when I destroyed the house of Emon. Initially, the Gunuchiho were led by Mr. Takeshichi and Mr. Hyosuke, and were engaged in activities in accordance with the manners of revolt. Intensify and disorder. When the Chusei, led by the non-residents, separated from the Gunuchiho, they became mobs, armed with guns and bamboo spears, and deviated from theft and fire, forcing the villages to participate in the rebellion. When the national forces attacked Isawa-juku (Isawa Town, Fuefuki City) on August 22, they broke up into two, one heading from Koshu-dochu to Kofu Town (Kofu City), and the other heading south along the Fuefuki River. On August 23, the following day, the rebellion that proceeded along the Koshu road broke into the castle of Kofu when it broke through the defense battles of Kofu duty number Nagami Isenokami-Ko, Kofu deputy officer, Inoue Juzaemon's hand, and so on. He broke the mansion of the grain brokers and the virtuous people, and also set fire. The rebellion that destroyed the castle of Kofu was further divided into two, and one move proceeded from Enkoji Village to Saijo Village (Showa Town) in Naka District, Koma County, continued to destroy Iida Shinmachi from Nishiaonuma Town, and Kitayama, Koma County via Arakawa. I proceeded to Kamiishida Town (Kofu City), Nishiyahata Village / Ryuo Village (Nishiyahata / Ryuo, Kai City), and when I smashed and ignited, I continued to smash at the Fuebuki River without crossing the Kamanashi River. On the other hand, one move south of Tokoji Village was partially arrested by the pursuit of Kofu taking turns on duty (esp. daimyo's retainers on duty in Edo) Nagami Isenokami-Ko, and this was also divided into two moves in Nakagunsuji Otoguro Village. One went to Otawa Village, Naka District, and the other went to Saijo Village. When the turmoil broke down in Naka District Sujifuse Town and Imafuku-mura, they joined in Otawa Village Magome, crossed the Fuefuki River, passed through Yashiro District Nishi District Ueno Town (Ichikawamisato-cho), and Ichikawadaimon where Ichikawa cantonment exists. Reach the village. Tetsugoro Yamaguchi-Ko, Daikanyama Ichikawa, is in a sickbed, and the command of the suppression was done by Jinzaemon Takashima-Ko, but he moved out before many people. It is said that the turmoil was also destroyed in Ichikawadaimon Village, and Kyubei, the president of Kami-yui, was a blank gun but threatened with the gun he brought, forcing him to mobilize to participate in the turmoil. The turmoil further broke down at Kajikazawa inn when going south on the Surshu return, but after that, it returned to the north and went north at Nishigunsuji Aoyagi inn, Saishoji village, Tenjin Nakajo village, Nagasawa village (Fujikawa town). Continued to break down and reached Nishi-gun muscle Kajikazawa inn. At Ogisawa-juku, the villagers counterattacked, but the turmoil further crossed the Yamaguchi station from Nirasaki-juku to Nishi-Otakegawa-mura (Hakushu Town, Hokuto City) and reached the vicinity of the Koshin border. On August 23, Kofu working number Nagami Isenokami-Ko and Kofu Edo-period prefectural governor (magistrate,bailiff)

Juzaemon Inoue-Ko, who allowed the destruction in Kofu town, requested the Suwa domain of Shinano Province to send troops, and slaughtered all the villages in Kuninaka. The villages in the Kofu Basin, which received the news of the destruction, collect information independently and work for defense. In addition, there were some who actively participated in the suppression of the turmoil, such as the masters of Mt. Ontake Kanazakura Shrine. The Shinano Suwa clan dispatched clan soldiers during the 24th, but when it was confirmed that the county's return to the village and the turmoil had subsided, he visited Kofu on the 28th and returned to Shinano. The Shogunate has also ordered the Numazu Domain of Suruga Province and the Takato Domain of Shinano to dispatch troops, but both domains have withdrawn shortly after confirming the suppression of the turmoil. Hidetatsu Egawa (Tarozaemon)-Ko, who has jurisdiction over the territories of Izu, Suruga, Musashi, and Sagami provinces, is also working to collect information about the turmoil. Egawa learned of the turmoil when he returned to Nirayama Daikansho after finishing the village of Suruga in Izu in August 7th, when the turmoil occurred. He is heading to Kai with Yakuro Saito-Ko and others. Egawa-Ko returned in August when he learned of the suppression of the turmoil from Kofu's deputy officer, Tozaemon Inoue-Ko, on September 3. After the turmoil has subsided, the Shogunate will dispatch a scrutiny officer to investigate at the Ishiwa magistrate's office. Mr. Takeshichi and Mr. Hyosuke, who became the leaders of the uprising in the county, left the riot after destroying Okuuemon-Ko's house and returned to the village, but Mr. Takeshichi was guilty and self-confessed and was arrested. Mr. Takeshichi is decided to be crucifixed at Isawa-juku (Isawa Town, Fuefuki City), but he is dead in prison. On the other hand, Hyosuke has escaped from Kai and is wandering from Kanto to Hokuriku, Kinai, Shikoku, and China. A travel diary still exists in Hyosuke, and before 10 years of Tenpo, he returned to Inume Village, took his family to Kisarazu, Awa Province (Kisarazu City, Chiba Prefecture), changed his surname to Nara, and changed his name to Terakoya. Is said to have run. According to interviews with the sectarians' book and descendants of Hossho-ji Temple in Inume, Uenohara City, the Hyosuke family returned from Anbo to Kai before the 5th year of Ansei (1858), and Hyosuke died during the Keio era.）occurred in Yamanashi prefecture. Around this time, Japan began to break the isolation and become a modern nation under the pressure of Western countries. After entering Kofu Castle in March 1868, Koshu became Yamanashi Prefecture on November 20, 1868, after passing through Kai Province and Kofu Prefecture. In the first half of the Meiji era, the silk reeling industry and the wine brewing industry will be fostered by the Fujimura Prefectural Ordinance's solicitation policy. In the second half, the Chuo Line will open and industry and culture will develop. Farmers have a high rate of crofting, and there are many crofting disputes from the Taisho era to the Showa era. Fujikawa boating declined sharply due to the opening of the Chuo Line, and its history closed in the early Showa period when the Minobu Line opened. In 1945, the end of the war was reached, and after the war, the land reform led to a system centered on self-produced farming, and the subsequent agricultural management was significantly converted to fruit trees. Commerce and industry developed during the period of high economic miracle. Last but not least, JA Fruit Yamanashi has the highest production of grapes in Japan and is made with great care of various varieties of grapes. In addition, fruit trees such as peaches and cherries are also actively cultivated, and more than 3,500 producers of fruits are engaged in JA as a whole. It is one of the largest fruit tree producing areas in Yamanashi, the fruit kingdom, and accounts for more than 40% of the production in the prefecture.

Sasebo is famous as a town that was born and grew with the construction of a military port. A place with a good natural port suitable for it is surrounded by steep rocky mountains and has few flat areas, which is a characteristic of the topography, and Nagasaki and Sasebo can be said to be representatives. In the war between Japan and Russia, it became a gathering place for the Combined Fleet, and the commander of the navy base was Heihachiro Togo（Born in Kajiya, Kagoshima City, Kagoshima Prefecture, 1848-1934）, who later became the Commander-in-Chief of the Combined Fleet, Mitsumasa Yonai（Born in Morioka, Iwate Prefecture, 1880-1948）, who became Prime Minister, and other heavyweights of the Imperial Japanese Navy. During the Pacific War, it prospered more and more as a naval city crowded with military ports and shipyards. It is a well-known fact that Sasebo became a base for overseas salvage vessels immediately after the end of the war. Withdrawals from overseas and Uragashira on Hario Island due to the end of the war also landed from mainland China and the Southern Islands. Currently, this place is being maintained as a memorial peace park. After that, it developed as a peace industry port city, and after going through “shipbuilding” and “coal mine”, it is now energizing the Kyushu region as the center of the commercial service industry in the northern region of the prefecture along with the manufacturing industry.

The selection of the 157th Akutagawa Prize and Naoki Prize (sponsored by the Society for the Promotion of Japanese Literature) was held on July 19, 2017. “Moon waxing and waning” (Iwanami Shoten) by novelist Shogo Sato (Mr. Kanetaka), who lives in Sasebo City, has been selected as a prestigious award-winning work for the Naoki Sanjugo Award. In front of me is a little 7-year-old girl, who is actually my deceased child, now my deceased lover, now my deceased wife, and if not, who is this child?

【Origin of the name】

I heard that the word “Miccan” was coined to mean “Kanji / Koji”, which is sweet like honey, because the varieties introduced from China during the Muromachi period were sweeter than the citrus fruits that had been used until then. 1603 to 1604 Nippo Dictionary; Vocabulario da Lingoa de Iapam com a declaração em Portugues: Published in Nagasaki by the Jezus Society (Oxford University Library, Portuguese Ebola Public Library, French National Library, Brazilian Rio de Janeiro National Library) As it is written as miccan in “(confirmed storage in)”, it seems that it was pronounced miccan in the old days. This dictionary has 25,967 words in the main story and 6,831 words in the addendum when calculated using headwords. Excluding duplicates, the total number seems to be 32,293 words. As expected, this amount cannot hide the surprise in a short period of time. “Ajimaru mandarin oranges” are carefully selected under strict quality control and have successfully cleared the standards for delicious satsuma oranges.

The history of Nagasaki mandarin is that in 1780 (Tenmei era), the lord of the Omura domain, 'Sumiyasu Omura-Ko', introduced the Satsuma domain's ”Nagashima mandarin” (Izumi District (former: Azuma Town) Nagashima-cho's Wenshu mandarin) to Ikiriki Village. It is said that it was first cultivated by Mr. Yuiemon Tanaka, Mr. Rinemon Tanaka, and Mr. Tsuguemon Nakamichi (Chudo) (currently Tarami Town, Izumi District). “Egami Buntan” was born in Sasebo City, “Hirado Buntan” was born in Hirado City, and Citrus unshiu cultivation started in Ikiriki (Isahaya City) and Nagayo Town. Citrus Unshiu has heard that the seeds brought back from China by the envoy to Tang China began to bear fruit and were found in Kagoshima. It is said that “Ikiriki-based Citrus unshiu” has been cultivated from the “Ikiriki region” and has been cultivated, and saplings have been shipped nationwide. In 1876, mandarin oranges were sold by hand in the castle town. In addition, from around 1887, the production area of ​​mandarin oranges was expanded in “Ikiriki Village”, and even today, the area is the main production area in Nagasaki Prefecture. From 1961 “Fruit Tree Agriculture Promotion Special Measures Law Enforcement (Cabinet Order No. 145)”, the Nagasaki Prefecture Citrus Promotion Plan was formulated, and the citrus cultivation area is rapidly increasing throughout the prefecture. Demand for fruit trees in Japan is generally declining and stagnant, and there is a growing tendency for small quantities to be sold as other items and for good quality. Many fruits, including mandarin oranges, are in overproduction. There are increasing demands from other countries to expand imports of fruits and fruit products. In order to achieve sound development, it is necessary to deal with the overproduction trend of fruits. Induce production that responds to trends. Fostering independent fruit tree farmers who can be the core players in the production area. And it is necessary to further strengthen the constitution of fruit tree agriculture. The system for promoting fruit tree agriculture was strengthened（Partial amendment of Law No. 15, July 1, 1985）. To the prefectural governor, the then Vice-Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries（After retiring, he will assume the post of chairman of the Norinchukin Bank.）. In 1974, the cultivated area of ​​Satsuma mandarin reached 14,900 ha, and the production volume exceeded 200,000 tons. However, after peaking around this time, the cultivated area and production volume continued to decline, and after the liberalization of imports of orange fruits and fruit juice, the cultivated area as of 2013 was 3,300 ha and the production volume was 60,900 tons nationwide. It is the fifth largest production volume. In 1597, Nagasaki was the first onion to land in Japan by a Portuguese ship. The production of early-maturing onions is thriving, and it has a good reputation for its freshness and good taste. I hear that potato was introduced from Jakarta to nagasaki by a Dutch ship in 1598. It boasts the second largest production volume after Hokkaido, and Minamishimabara City is one of the leading production areas in the prefecture. Cultivation started in earnest in the Meiji era, and now it is cultivated based on two crops, spring and autumn, taking advantage of the warm climate. Asparagus officinalis was introduced to Nagasaki as ornamental from the Netherlands during the Edo period. There are spring and summer seasons, and spring asparagus grows slowly over time, so it has a strong sweetness and is rich in minerals and especially vitamin C. Summer asparagus has a beautiful light green color because it grows at a stretch due to the blessings of the daytime sun, and it is soft to the vicinity of the root. I hear that the bright red tomatoes were introduced to Nagasaki from the Netherlands at the end of the 17th century”. City jurisdiction, Kuidetsu, Takematsuhonmachi, Ozato Town, Matsubarahonmachi. City designated historic site : Ozato-伝 Mr. Doi Suzuta's Tomb, Conflict with ‘SUMIYASU Omura’-Ko : Master-Slave Relationship. Citrus varieties born in Nagasaki Prefecture: “Wase Haraguchi” was discovered in 1969 by Mr. Seiji Haraguchi of Nishisonogi-cho, Nishisonogi-gun, Nagasaki Prefecture (currently Saikai City) as a sport of “Wase Miyagawa” in his own garden. NS.  (Close to Haraguchi Mikan: Coral reef: Limestone: Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) calcite and aragonite) It is said that it was formed by uplifting from the seabed about 30 million years ago. “Tsugama Limestone Cave” : (Designated as a national natural memorial in 1936.) The group has completely different characteristics from other limestone cave due to its material and new generation age, and the world But it is rare. (Our ancestors: Mandarin was born about 3 million years ago. There are historical theories about primates, 70 million years BC, and human beings 5 ​​million years ago ... Mysterious romance.) “Wase Miyagawa” is believed to have occurred around 1909 (Meiji 42) as a branch of the traditional (ordinary) Citrus unshiu planted in the residence of Mr. Kenkichi Miyagawa in Yanagikawa City, Fukuoka Prefecture. From 1923 (Taisho 12) Dr. Chozaburo Tanaka (1885 (Meiji 18)-(Showa 51) 1976) (A Monograph of the Satsuma Orange) Taipei Imperial University, 1932 (Showa) 7)) (“Citrus Research, Vol. 16” 1927 (Showa 2) Yokendo (published in 1933 (Showa 8)) after a detailed investigation, and since it was named, it has been expanded. It is a nationally well-known representative variety of early-maturing Citrus unshiu and ordinary Citrus unshiu. The tree vigor is strong, it tends to be fertile and easy to grow. It has a rich taste and is considered to be the most suitable as a new species for institutionalization. The characteristics of “Haraguchi” mandarin, which is a representative of early-maturing varieties in Nagasaki Prefecture, are large, soft and sweet. Products that form the basis of various researches, such as soil improvement methods using red soil and special sand using the technique of covering with white sheets, and homemade fertilizers devised by our own theory (cultivation manager: Mr. Haraguchi). From the (love for people) Philanthropic spirit (Philanthropy) by Yuen. The “Wase Haraguchi” mandarin orange is a log that only about 30 exist in the Haraguchi Orchard (Saikai City). It is said that only “Son Mikan” is a seedling that is divided into stocks. “Wase Iwasaki”, 1968, Mr. Denichi Iwasaki of Nakaura Nango (currently Saikai City), Saikai Town, Nishisonogi District, Nagasaki Prefecture, was discovered as a sport of “Wase Okitsu” in the field. It is an early-maturing variety. The Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Seedling Law has not yet been confirmed. In the field of Mr. Tsugio Ozaki of “Sasebo Unshu”, Sasebo City, Nagasaki Prefecture, a branch change was confirmed from a 15-year-old tree of “Wase Miyagawa”, and it was discovered in 1975. In 1993 (Heisei 5), at the Nagasaki Fruit Tree Experiment Station, virus-free: Once infected, plants cannot be excluded from immunity and cannot escape the virus for the rest of their lives.) Was carried out, and in 1998, the sale of seedlings to the mikan production area in Nagasaki Prefecture became popular. The harvest season is expected from late November to early December, and it is a mesophyll system that is about 10 days later than “Wase Miyagawa”. “Shiranuhi Orange: Sumo Mandarin”, You have to give a lot of nutrition, and you need to irrigate and fertilize well when the flowers bloom and become young. Born in 1972 in Minamishimabara (Kuchinotsu), Nagasaki. It is famous as a fruit born by crossing “Kiyomi Orange（Citrus unshiu × Sinensis）” and “Ponkan（Nakano No. 3: Citrus reticulata var poonensis (Hayata) H.H. Hu）”. After ripening well on the tree, store for half a month to a month. It seems that the sourness will be removed and the sweetness will increase. Cultivation of Citrus Unshiu, which uses less water to increase sugar content, requires a slightly different cultivation method. The process by which green plants turn carbon dioxide and water into food using energy obtained from light from the sun; The process plants use to take the energy from sunlight and use it to convert carbon dioxide and water into food- Photosynthesis. “Amakusa（Kumamoto Prefecture）” Crossing combination, old strain name (Kiyomi × Wase Okitsu) -No. 14 × page.

Unique sweetness, chewy texture, and wonderful fragrance. I have introduced several types, but I will trace the history in the near past. In the Meiji era, citrus cultivation became popular with Ikiriki, and it seems that there is a record that it started exporting Satsuma mandarin to Vladivostok. In 1900, he started a citrus cultivation test at the Nagasaki Prefectural Agricultural Experiment Station and started to support the production area. The Fruit Tree Research Division (Isahaya City) of the Nagasaki Prefectural Agriculture and Forestry Technology Development Center has been developing and nurturing the first new variety of “Satsuma mandarin” in the prefecture after about 15 years and research results from 2000 (Heisei 12). The long-awaited “Nagasaki Kaken Sasebo No. 1” has been trained. Based on the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Variety Registration and Seedling Law, application for registration was made in 2013, and Nagasaki City, Nagasaki Prefecture was registered in 2015.

It is said that women's clubs, youth clubs, and JA staff are playing a central role in conducting food and agriculture education activities for children who will lead the next generation in various parts of the JA Nagasaki Saikai jurisdiction. The purpose is to make people feel the importance of “agriculture” that supports Japan's "food" and the importance of locally produced safe, secure and high-quality agricultural and livestock products. I would like to give you a brief overview of Sasebo City, Nagasaki Prefecture, which is the production center of the products introduced this time. Located in the northern part of the prefecture, it is a city blessed with abundant nature, represented by Saikai National Park “Kujuku Island”. It has a history of prospering as a military port of the former Navy, and now has a US naval base, and is also an international port city. It is also widely known as a tourist city such as Japan's largest theme park “Huis Ten Bosch”. The facility covers 152 hectares and is said to be about 1.5 times larger than Tokyo Disney Resort, and is famous as the largest theme park in Japan. When you visit the park, you can feel the retro atmosphere of the Dutch cityscape, and you can enjoy the atmosphere of Europe as a whole. “Saikai National Park and Kujuku Island” float in a row in the calm sea. There are 208 islands over a range of about 25 km. Most are uninhabited islands, but four of them are inhabited by people. The scenery of Kujuku Island, which is long from north to south, seems to change greatly depending on where you look. The islands in the quiet area are rounded and look kind. In areas where the waves are rough and the wind is strong, the shaved rock surface is rough and it seems to be awesome. There are many observatories in the city to enjoy Kujuku Island, which has many expressions, and you can see the rich scenery. Also, in the center of the city, “Saruku City 403 Arcade”, which has a total length of about 1 km, is a lively shopping street with about 160 stores. In the immediate vicinity, there are shopping spots where you can feel the food culture of Sasebo and the humanity of the citizens, such as the “Tonoo Market”, which is lined with old-fashioned shops such as butcher shops and fish stores, and the market “Tonneru Yokocho” that uses the ruins of an air raid shelter. Since the Taisho era, it has been popular with the citizens as a kitchen in Sasebo. There is a side street along the national highway, and it is a market made by making the best use of the air raid shelter during the war. Are lined up. The good old Showa scent comes from there. Various cultures are rooted in Sasebo, such as Hirado ware; Mikawachi（The 28th Hirado feudal lord, Takanobu Matsuura (a warring lord of Hizen Province, Saga Genji's first-class Matsuura, 25th head)-Ko ordered Sannojo to open a pottery factory for the feudal clan. In 1638, Shigenobu-Ko, the 29th feudal lord, appointed Sannosuke as the lord and daikan of Sarayama, and in 1643, it seems that he set up branch offices of the Sarayama government office in Kiharayama and Enagayama. The Hirado Domain, which had abundant finances due to Nanban trade, lost its trading interests because the Dutch trading house moved to Dejima, Nagasaki. Therefore, with the encouragement of the clan, when the kiln became larger with the years, the clan sought sales channels overseas, worked to develop ceramics for export, and developed thin coffee bowls and the like. In 1804, it was exported to the Netherlands and China, and was loved by royal aristocrats overseas.）, which used to be a kiln for the Hirado domain and has a history of more than 400 years, Kuroshima Catholic Church, which tells the culture of hidden Christians, and valuable naval heritage and remains of the former Navy era. It's a city. After the war, it developed as a US Navy base town, and now, in addition to the Japan-US exchange event, the new YOSAKOI Sasebo Festival is also an annual autumn event. Blessed with a warm climate and abundant natural environment, “Saikai oranges” in the southern part of Sasebo City are produced in an environment overlooking Omura Bay and Huis Ten Bosch. Garden registration system: In order to cultivate Saikai brand oranges “Ajimaru" and "Ajikko”, it is necessary for each producer to voluntarily register which brand to cultivate. Cultivation conditions and cultivation management are set by the brand, and quality checks and cultivation management guidance are conducted on a regular basis to maintain the quality of branded oranges. In the registered cultivated gardens, the whole family uses fertilizers that are mainly organic, and the white sheet mulch that covers the entire garden controls the intrusion of rainwater to dry the soil and dazzle the reflected light. Thorough management is carried out every day to raise the sugar content, such as giving plenty of bath. The mandarin oranges grown through the collaboration of the producer's affectionate daily management, the mineral-rich sea breeze, and the bright sunlight become “Saikai satsuma oranges” that contain plenty of nutrients such as amino acids. The taste is very sweet and has a strong impression. Thorough selection is carried out in order to ship Saikai mandarin oranges that are not only delicious but also safe and secure. Producer: Timely harvest based on quality standards, check for scratches and rot by producers, bring in fruit sorting station. Fruit sorting station: check for scratches and rot by workers, check for scratches and rot by fruit sorting machine (sensor) , Fruits are sorted by size and brand (appearance, sugar content, acid) using a fruit sorter (sensor) before shipping. “Ajimaru” and “Ajikko” are gems that pursue deliciousness by designating a garden where you can get the most delicious oranges in “Sasebo Unshu”. Among the sweet and ripe oranges, we select only those that contain a lot of amino acids in addition to high sugar content and have “umami” and “richness”. In addition, there is the famous “Dejima no Hana” as the top brand unified in Nagasaki prefecture. Ajimaru has a sugar content of about 12 degrees (shipping time: early November to late February) Ajiko has a sugar content of about 13 degrees (shipping time: mid-November to late February) Dejima no Hana has a sugar content of about 14 degrees. (Shipping time: from mid-December to late January). “Saikai mandarin” boasts one of the highest quality and production volume in Japan, and has been highly evaluated, with the market transaction unit price being the highest in Japan in the Kanto region and other regions. It will be the effort value of the producer and the related parties who follow. The season is from October to January, but it seems that they use the house and ship tangerines in August (heated cultivation), February, and March (unheated cultivation). Citrus fruits are shipped almost all year round, including midnight citrus fruits. It is rich in “Vitamin C”, which has a high antioxidant effect, and “β-cryptoxanthin,” which is attracting attention as a substance with a high carcinogenic suppressive effect. It is not only sweet and delicious, but also good for the body. 100% natural fruit juice made by squeezing ripe oranges harvested at the most delicious time of the season as they are, and additive-free straight juice is also famous. It doesn't contain a single drop of water. Naturally, you can enjoy the taste of the ingredients themselves rather than the concentrated and reduced juice. The criteria for mandarin oranges, which are defined as delicious, are that they have a high sugar content, that they have a good balance of sweetness and acidity, and that they have a thin skin.

The Samurai I Loved, drawn by Shuhei Fujisawa, is a castle town surrounded by clear streams and trees. Light love, friendship, and endurance. Draw in the abundant light the figure of a boy feudal lord who grows up while being tossed by a fierce fate, let's regret it. Bunshiro Maki returns home with his adoptive father's body in a cart while the cicada squeaks. His house is reduced and he is forced to live in a poor row house with his mother Otose. Fuku leaves for Edo to serve the feudal lord's regular room, as if to catch up. Two young people who pass each other and are never tied. His sweet and sad feelings got caught up in the political dispute and his father was harassed, hereditary stipend reduced his salary, and he fell down but lived straight. It is often done. The chief retainer who thinks of subjects (people who shape the nation and society) defeats the chief retainer who is a colleague of desire to act only in one's self-interes, and the heart is clear. And although the world does not remain, each person who accepts his own destiny and lives feels refreshed, and although it seems to be a long time ago, it is still valued and sucked in.

Former Higashitagawa District Office (prefectural designated tangible cultural property: April 12, 1988), the original county office was at the same time as the former Nishitagawa District Office in Tsuruoka City between 1879 and 1881. It is said that it was built. It seems that it was a very high-colored Western architecture at that time, but in the spring of 1886, it seems that it disappeared due to a big fire in the vicinity. After the reconstruction, it was reborn as a pure Japanese-style dignified and dignified building, which may have surprised the local residents. The interior also incorporates a Western-style architectural style as seen in the corridor-style courtyard, which seems to remind the architects of the time when they were sensitive to the wind of civilization. The builder was Kenkichi Takahashi, who was said to be the leading figure in Shonai at that time, and Iwataro, an adopted child (he was born as the eldest son of Sahyoe Yamamoto, a builder of Zenpoji Temple who lives in Izumi Town, Tsuruoka City, Yamagata Prefecture). He is a great person who worked on buildings that are widely known throughout the country, such as Sankyo warehouse (Sakata City), Nishitagawa District Office (Tsuruoka City), and Zenpoji Five-storied Pagoda (Tsuruoka City). I heard that this is a one-story building, built in 1887. Also, the adjacent Old County Parliament Building seems to have been built around 1902, but it is unknown who designed and constructed it. The building is a wooden colonial style, and the gables on the exterior and the gable ornamentation at the entrance are said to be Gothic. Both were preserved and repaired until 1995, and are now rooted in the area as the Higashidagawa Cultural Memorial Hall.

【Origin of the name】

In Japan, it was called American Neri because it came from the United States, but now the English name Okra is the Japanese name. Neri of American Neri is a tamo, and it was called Abelmoschus manihot because it contains a large amount of mucilage in its roots. I also heard that it is derived from the word “nkuruma” in the West African and Ghana region, and there is also “gumbo” in English, which is derived from the Bantu language in Central Africa.

【Major features】

The Shonai Tagawa Agricultural Cooperative is located in the southwestern part of the Shonai Plain, and its terrain extends from the plain to the mountainous areas. The plains on the west side face the Sea of ​​Japan and have an oceanic climate, and the mountainous areas on the east side are characterized by an inland climate located at the foot of the Asahi mountain range and Dewasanzan. It is said that livestock farming such as pig farming, beef cattle, and dairy farming is actively carried out in addition to vegetables, fruit trees, and flowers, centering on rice cultivation that makes the best use of the characteristics of the plain and mountainous areas. Green soybeans; Glycine max (L.) Merrill in the Shonai region has been cultivating a native species of soy beans (a type with brown hair on the surface of the pod) for a long time. It has been actively performed in the center. In recent years, tea bean cultivation utilizing converted rice fields has become widespread throughout the jurisdiction, but the production area has expanded due to the aging of producers, the slump in market prices due to the spread of increased production of green soybeans nationwide, and natural disasters. There is no situation. While many producers are shifting crops to feed rice and processed rice, the characteristic of edamame is that it is growing for processing. Cultivation of edamame in the Shonai region is characterized by cultivating a traditional variety called soy beans and a strong commitment to taste. Therefore, it is often managed in a small area, and it seems that the general cultivation method is to raise seedlings and plant them in order to increase the yield efficiently. A few years ago from the time of 2018, there was a growing tendency among producers to expand the management area, and it seems that producers, JA, and the government have been working together to cultivate green soybeans using a mechanized system. When introducing the mechanized system, we focused on soybean cultivation, which is similar to edamame cultivation, and applied the already systematically established mechanized work of soybean cultivation to edamame cultivation. The major difference between mechanization and the conventional cultivation method is the shift from seedling planting to direct sowing with a sowing machine. It seems that the introduction of direct sowing cultivation improved efficiency and led to an area expansion. Since the characteristics of each variety are the key to increasing the yield, the sowing time and sowing system were examined for each variety, and a system corresponding to direct sowing cultivation was implemented. The management work for the entire cultivation period is carried out by diverting the weeding machines and pest control machines used in soybean cultivation. However, regarding harvesting, it is said that a special harvester has been introduced because the soybean combine cannot be used. The passenger-type green soybean harvester is owned by each of the two green soybean production groups within the subcommittee, and is used for harvesting green soybeans for processing. Currently, 17 producers are harvesting with three passenger-type green soybean harvesters in a field of 68.26 hectares that produces green soybeans for processing. Before the introduction of the riding type edamame harvester, a walking type binder type harvesting machine was used, so it was possible to harvest only about 20 ares per day, and it seems that it was not possible to expand the scale, but riding to take off in the field. With the introduction of the type edamame harvester, it has become possible to harvest 70 to 80 ares per day, and the management area has been expanded. For the harvest of green soybeans for raw consumption, a binder-type harvester is used to manually remove and sort the green soybeans. It seems that non-standard edamame has been shipped for sweets here for a long time. Since it is an item that does not last for a long time, it seems that the processing capacity of careful manual sorting and packaging performed immediately after harvesting is a major factor in controlling product management for raw edamame. On the other hand, the standard for edamame for processing has been relaxed compared to that for raw food, and it can be said that the entry into processing for processing was a natural process with the introduction of mechanization. Regarding packaging, I heard that processing edamame does not carry out bagging work, but after sorting, it is shipped by container. With the introduction of the machine, the time from harvesting to processing has been shortened, and it has become possible to supply soy beans to the shipping destination without spoiling the flavor of soy beans while maintaining their freshness. As for varieties, the same conventional varieties are used for both raw consumption and processing. It seems that processed green soybeans are mainly processed into raw materials for sweets and frozen green soybeans. Boiled and mashed paste is called “Zunda”, but most of the edamame for processing is manufactured from raw edamame to Zunda bean paste at confectionery stores and sold as Zunda rice cake or Zunda bean paste. It seems that it has been done. The work of frozen edamame is outsourced to a processing factory, and it is sold mainly to mass retailers in the Kanto region as JA's frozen edamame. I also buy and save many times, decorate the table with sake, and every year my family is pleased. In recent years, “Shonai Chamame”, a specialty of the Shonai region of Yamagata prefecture, has been gaining recognition due to its good taste, but with the expansion of sales channels, the increase in yield per area is rapidly accelerating from the viewpoint of maintaining the production area. What is clear is that. Now, I will talk about okra, but first I would like to briefly introduce the vibrant production areas. My hobbies and tastes are mixed for a while, but please forgive me. Shonai Plain, Yamagata Prefecture: It is nurtured by the flow of the mogami river and Akagawa river from different sources. To the north Mt. Chokai : Dewa Sanzan (Three Mountains of Dewa ; Shrine-Mt. Haguro, Mt. Gassan, Mt. Yudono) to the east-It is said that Koteko's son, Prince Hachiko, escaped from the capital at the discretion of Prince Umayado (Prince Shotoku), and became the founder of Dewa Sanzan (Three Sacred Mountains of Dewa) in Tsuruoka City, Yamagata Prefecture. South is surrounded by mountains in the Asahi mountain range（Mt. Kanko, Mt. Small Asahi, Mt. Hiraiwa, Mt. Torihara, Mt. Iwaigame etc.）One of Japan's leading granary areas, with large sand dunes on the west side facing the Sea of ​​Japan. Humans settled in the Region as far back as the Paleolithic and Jomon periods. Southern hills and foothills : The ruins of hunting life at that time are interspersion. In the Kofun period, people also settle in the lowlands of the plains. He started his rice-growing life under the control of a powerful family. At the end of the Heian period, a manor called Oizumi-sho was set up in this region. “Gikeiki”, 大泉荘大梵寺を通せ給ふ: Description, Daibon-ji Temple later became known as Daiho-ji Temple. Eventually it will become the center of Oizumi villa. At the beginning of the Kamakura period, Mr. Muto ruled as lord of a manorof Oizumi villa. Since then, it has prospered as a regional center throughout the Middle Ages : In the 1530s, seeking harm during the war : Take up residence at Oura Castle (now Oyama). From the Middle Ages, Mt. Haguro was a major force here. It is said that he also served as a steward and protected Kurokawa thickly（Inherited for more than 500 years by the parishioner ; It is divided into an upper seat and a lower seat, which are Noza (farmer) of the guardian Kasuga Shrine. Oral biography of the 56th Emperor Seiwa. Designated in 1976 as a national important intangible folk cultural property.）. After the fall, Shonai will be under the control of Echigo Uesugi. In 1591, Kanetsugu Naoe-Ko built Daihoji Castle as a political base. The Naoe army attacked the Yamagata-jo Castle fiercely, and finally besieged the Hasedo Castle, the advance-guard station of the Yamagata Castle (the Battle of Dewa in the Keicho Era or the Battle of Hasedo-jo). As a result of the Battle of Sekigahara, Yoshiaki Mogami-Ko, the lord of Yamagata, ruled Shonai in 1601. Daiho-ji Castle is maintained as a retired castle: In 1603, the name was changed to Tsurugaoka Castle. Entering the Edo period, Mr. Mogami was confiscated in 1622. Instead, Tadakatsu Sakai-Ko（140,000 koku ; of rice in hereditary daimyo (whose ancestors supported Tokugawa Ieyasu prior to the battle of Sekigahara)）entered the country as the lord of the Shonai clan. The castle town is maintained with Tsuruoka as the residence-To build on the basics. The Shonai clan has Akumi District and Tagawa District. This is administratively divided into Kawakita Misato and Kawanami Five Streets. 中川通, 櫛引通, 京田通, 山浜通: The Shonai clan was ruled by the Sakai clan for about 250 years. From the Restoration down to the present. In 1869, Mr. Sakai repatriates the edition.etc. “平成の大合併” : 鶴岡市, 藤島町, 羽黒町, 櫛引町, 朝日村, 温海町が合併-平成17年10 月1日に, 新鶴岡市が発足-With an area of ​​1,311.53 km2, it is the largest city in Tohoku.

Furthermore, in 1890, Yaezato Village was separated from Goshari Village, and in 1891, Goshari Village was renamed Joman Village, and Kiyokawa Village was separated from Karigawa Village. Amarume Village enforced the town system in 1918, Karigawa Village enforced the town system in 1937, and on October 1, 1954, 1 town and 2 villages of Tachiyazawa Village, Kiyokawa Village and Karigawa Town merged with Tachikawa Town, became. In the same year, on December 1, 1956, Amarume Town, Yamato Village, Izaai Village, Sakae Village, Joman Village, and Yaezato Village merged into Amarume Town, and on January 1, 1956, Amarume Town. The two villages of Senbonsugi and Kuwata were separated from each other and incorporated into Tachikawa Town. Then, on July 1, 2005, Amarume Town and Tachikawa Town merged to form Shonai Town. The town is located in the northwestern part of Yamagata prefecture, from the southeastern part to the center of the Shonai Plain. A long north-south terrain along the clear stream Tachiyazawa River, which has the summit of Mt. Gassan, and the Mogami River, one of the three major rapids in Japan. It borders Sakata City to the north and northwest, Tozawa Village to the east, Okura Village to the southeast, Tsuruoka City to the southwest, and Mikawa Town across the Mogami River. It is a turning point connecting the regions and a gateway to the Shonai region. The climate is generally oceanic and relatively warm, but in winter the closer to the south (Moonyama side), the heavier the snowfall, the stronger the monsoon from the northwestern part (Sea of ​​Japan side), and From spring to autumn, the strong winds in the east-southeast from the valley of the Mogami River are famous as “Kiyokawa-Dashi（It is counted as one of the three major local winds in Japan and is a representative example of isthmus winds. The Mogami River passes through the Mogami Gorge (a gorge with a width of about 1 km and a length of about 10 km that forms the saddle of the Dewa Hills).）”. It is about 22.2 km east-west, about 38.9 km north-south, and has an area of ​​249.17 km2, making it the 12th largest area in the prefecture. By region, forests account for about 62.9% and rice fields account for 22.8%. “Amarume Hachiman Shrine” : This shrine is located in Amarume, Shonai Town, and was founded in 719 when it was said that it solicited the spirit of Usa Hachimangu (Usa City, Oita Prefecture, Buzen Kuniichigu). It was the vassal of Mr. Fujiwara Oshu and the deity of Mr. Sato. In the Kamakura period, Minamoto no Yoritomo-Ko gave him the title of Amarume Hachimangu Shrine, and he was the general guardian of Amarume Township. It is said that the priest of Saigoku Fudasho solicited the sand from the Saigoku Fudasho (takes the sand home) and established it as the 33 Kannon sacred sites in the Shonai region. Reorganized in 1950, there are now 35 sacred sites across the five cities of Sakata, Tsuruoka, Yuza, Shonai, and Mikawa.) It was worshiped as one of Hachiman. In the Middle Ages, Mr. Anbo ruled the area around the area, and in 1362 he relocated Amarume Hachiman Shrine as the guardian shrine of his own building.  For a long time after that, it was on the site of Mr. Anbo's mansion, but in the early modern period, 1637, he moved to the site for the first time in 260 years. The current Amarume Hachiman Shrine is an old building built in 1814, and it is said that it adopted the same ceremony as the Dewasanzan Shrine Sanjingo Shrine, and the worship hall and the main shrine are integrated and the palace is enshrined inside. The exterior of the hall of worship is the hip gable roof, thatched roof, 5 girders, a large staggered gable in front, and the eaves gable is used for the 3 間’s, and the xylem is colored in various colors, mainly vermilion. The detailed sculptures are also fine and elaborate, and the wrestler statues are often seen in northern Yamagata and southern Akita prefectures, and are thought to have a strong local color. The hall of worship and the palace are the remains of the shrine building in the latter half of the Edo period and are excellent in design, so they were designated as tangible cultural properties designated by Shonai Town in 1992. There are many sacred treasures. Inakari exhibition map (votive tablet: 1 sheet) and Anbo Akiyama discussion map (votive tablet: 2 sheets) (竪矧黒塗皺韋包二枚胴具足（1領）, 有栖川熾仁親王書「八幡宮」1 width) is designated as a tangible cultural property designated by Shonai Town. Religious deities: Tamayorihime, Ohohirume, Emperor Homutawake, Toyoukebime, Okinagatarashime no Mikoto. Large shrine: village shrine. “六渕 / 瀬場砂防堰堤（立谷沢地内）” : Rokubuchi and Seba, two sabo dams constructed in the 1950s. It is made of boulder concrete, the beautiful curve of the water passage part, and it was made by the high technology and skill of the time, and it is difficult to restore it now, and it seems to be a very valuable sabo dam. The words “Mokushiteyu; By Yasushi Kurakami (Former Mogami River Sabo Construction Office Construction Manager)” engraved on the back of the stone monument on the Saba Dam express the spirit of those involved in the difficult construction. In the Tachiyazawa River basin, there are many monuments to the dragon and water gods that tell the history of suffering from flooding. It was registered as a tangible cultural property registered in Japan in 2017.

It faces Mt. Chokai, which is called Dewa Fuji in the north, and Mt. Gassan, a sacred mountain in the east. It is a rich place, adjacent to the castle town of Tsuruoka and the port town of Sakata. The Akagawa River, which runs along National Highway No. 7 that runs through the town, brings the blessings of the fertile land and is developing as one of the leading rice fields in the granary area, Shonai. Agricultural products other than rice, such as melons, shiitake mushrooms, and green onions, are actively produced and shipped not only locally but also to the Tokyo metropolitan area, and are highly evaluated. The town was born from Yokoyama Village, Togo Village, and Oshikiri Village. The name is derived from Sansen of the Akagawa River, Oyama River, and Fujishima River that flow through the town, and the fertile land created by each is always the yield per area even in the Shonai Plain, which is one of the leading breadbaskets in Japan. It is in the top class. The terrain of the spacious rural town is smooth, and the scenery overlooking the beautiful mountains such as Mt. Chokai and Mt. Gassan makes your heart clear. As a pure farming village from ancient times, Mikawa Town, which continues to coexist with nature, promotes and develops the region and moves forward while preserving the culture and environment that will lead to the next generation. A bone that seems to be an unknown creature, Degotsuchi (Tschinoko), is enshrined in the Soto Sect Eirinsan Kozenji Temple in a village called Zennami. In the Meiji era, when a pond in a nearby mountain was drought and brought “bones” from the bottom of the pond, unhappiness occurred one after another. According to the teachings of the shrine maiden, the discoverer gave a generous memorial service at Kozenji Temple. Is enshrined as the bone of a dragon god. In the village of Sukegawa in the town, there is a small pond called “Ono Komachi Pond.” There is a legend that Ono no Komachi was born in this area, and it was this pond that abandoned the hot water produced. It is also said that no matter how much it rains, it will not overflow. In the Oshikiri area, there is a straw-stacked Nio where a god snake called “Snake Nio” lives. A long time ago, a small straw nio flowed during the flood and stopped at the current position. Two snakes came out of it, so it was enshrined at a nearby shrine. However, at one point, the river overflowed again due to the flood and was washed away about 150 m downstream. Then, unhappiness occurred one after another in the area, and when I talked to the shrine maiden, there was a god's announcement that Snake Nio wanted to return to the previous position, and while doing so, another flood occurred, and this time it was swept away It is said that it returned to its original position. アトク先生の館（Mikawa Town Cultural Exchange Center）: Known as the old house of Sanbongi. Built in the early Showa period, it was designed by Mr. Saichiro Miyajima, who also worked on imperial architecture.  It is a one-story building made of cypress, with a copper plate roof, and a floor area of ​​about 340 m2. The nickname is said to have been given by open recruitment because Mr. Tokusaburo Abe (1907-1994), who was the owner of the museum and taught at Yamagata University, was familiar with “Mr. Atoku” during his lifetime. It is said that the Ikezumi strolling garden was built in the Genroku period of the Edo period by collecting famous trees and rare stones from all over the country at a huge cost of 1,000 Ryos. Due to its design, it is known as one of the most famous gardens in Shonai. In addition to the doll displayed at Girls’ Festival being exhibited in March every year, a tea party is held in May and November with a view of the garden. It is also known as the filming location for “Departures; おくりびと,” which won the 81st Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film; 2009, International Feature Film Award. I heard that “Okra” came to Japan around 1872. However, unlike other vegetables, it did not seem to spread immediately because the green odor and the slimy feeling were shunned. It seems that the shadow of the war is behind the rapid spread in Japan. It seems that Japanese soldiers, our ancestors who fought in various parts of Southeast Asia during the Pacific War, were often saved by the vigorous okra in their starving self-sufficient lives. It seems that the soldiers (commoners) naturally became familiar with the taste, and after returning to Japan, they were cultivated and established excellent varieties in the Japanese climate. After that, the number of lovers of okra as a nourishing tonic and stamina food containing a lot of calcium and iron increased, and the consumption increased from around 1965-1970. As a green-yellow vegetable that is loved by men and women of all ages and children, it has now gained the existing citizenship. I hear that it is native to Okra tropical North Africa, which is a valuable traditional vegetable. Propagation seems to have been cultivated normally in Egypt in the 13th century. It seems that it began to be cultivated in Brazil in the 17th century and in the United States in the early 19th century. It was popularized early in India and other countries. It is an annual plant native to northeastern Africa, and young fruits are used for food. It is classified into the genus Hibiscus, and its flowers are similar to those of Hibiscus and Hibiscus syriacus. Fruits are also famous as health foods, but flowers are quite enjoyable, and they are also famous as crops with flowers and fruits. The fruits have a unique slimy texture, are rich in dietary fiber, have an intestinal regulating effect, and are rich in vitamins, making them ideal for healthy body care. The Japanese name is the name of the place of origin, and it seems that it is a perennial plant in warm regions. However, depending on the shape and color of the fruit, it is divided into mainstream horn okra, hornless round okra, red okra with red yasa, and flower okra that eats petals, and there are many varieties that are not distributed in the market. For some reason, it doesn't seem to be well understood. I forgot that okra seeds resemble coffee beans. From this, it seems that there is a history of cultivating coffee beans instead of coffee beans in ancient England and France. Also, during World War II, he seemed to prefer ripe seeds as a substitute for coffee beans. In terms of the suitability of okra, the range of soil adaptation is wide, and it seems that the soil quality is not so selected. Paddy soil seems to be more suitable than upland because the damage of Ipomoea batatas（The roots parasitized by this species have swollen tissues and become bumpy, and when there are many outbreaks, the entire roots become full of bumps and their growth is significantly inhibited. In severe cases, the roots rot and the strains die. Especially vulnerable. After molting once in the egg, it becomes a second stage larva and hatches from the egg. The second stage larva moves around in the soil, invades the tissue from the vicinity of the root cap of the root, settles near the vascular bundle, ingests nutrients, and becomes an adult after molting twice. Adult females excrete gelatinous egg sac and lay eggs in it. I heard that the number of eggs laid is about 400 to 800. It seems that it will start to work when the soil temperature rises above about 10 ° C. The required number of days for one generation is about 25 to 30 days under suitable conditions, and it is until several generations pass each year. The range of owners is wide, and it damages many agricultural products such as Gramineae, beans, Lily, Eggplant, Akaza, Abura, Chrysanthemum, Gourd, Oenanthe, Calystegia, Taro, and Yamanoimo. Causes enormous damage to agricultural products. As a countermeasure, it is better to avoid continuous cropping and change the cultivation field as much as possible. In institutional cultivation, the steaming treatment in the summer is preferably at 30 ° C or higher for 16 days or longer.）is large. Since the roots are taproot, it seems that productivity is higher in soil with deep cultivated soil and rich in organic matter. Immerse it in water for about 2 hours, then place it on a damp paper and let it dry for at least 12 hours. In addition, it is said that it is good to flood it well. After germination, two round cotyledons develop and the first leaf develops in 15 to 25 days. After that, the development of new leaves is every 3 to 5 days, and it seems that it tends to accelerate as the temperature rises. The first flower seems to bloom a neat cream-colored flower at the 4th to 5th nodes 45 to 50 days after sowing. The flowers are one-day flowers, which begin to bloom early in the morning and deflate in the evening. The growth until the first flower blooms is slow, but after that, the growth speed is accelerated due to the rise in temperature. If growth goes smoothly, harvesting will begin 70 days after sowing. The flowers are one-day flowers, which begin to bloom early in the morning and deflate in the evening. The growth until the first flower blooms is slow, but after that, the growth speed is accelerated due to the rise in temperature. If growth goes smoothly, harvesting will begin 70 days after sowing. It takes a few days for the first fruit to be harvested after it blooms, but it can be harvested in 3 to 4 days during the midsummer season. Cultivation is possible until the frost season, and when sown in April and cultivated until October, the flowering node grows to about 40 nodes and the plant height grows to 2 to 3 m. When exposed to frost, growth is significantly impeded and sad but seems to die. “Bonds” means the bonds between things that cannot be broken. It is the mission of producers to maintain this bond while striving for discerning production and shipping so that consumers can eat agricultural products safely, securely and deliciously. Thank you very much.

The immaculate blooms neat, pale yellow flowers, and the okra flowers are one-day flowers that begin to bloom early in the morning and deflate in the evening. オクラになる: In the Edo period, the theory of “comfort” was considered to be influential because the reversed word was popular, but it was interpreted that it was used as a term for the play because the script of the play was stowed in the cellar. It seems that the theory that literally originates from cellar cannot be said to be wrong.

Not only domestic but also overseas products are on the market these days, but fresh features are still good. Freshness is important, and it seems easy to understand because the cut ends black after a day. Okra also grows to a height far beyond the height of humans. From wholesalers to consumers by decorating customers' eyes.

JA Shonai Tagawa cultivated his spirit as Hagurocho Agricultural Cooperative about 37 years ago. However, with the recent decline in rice prices and the shortage of successors, the situation surrounding agriculture is extremely severe these days, which has become a major problem for companies and regions that process agricultural products. The biggest problem we are facing is how to deal with the raw material shortage caused by the aging of producers and the chronic situation of lack of young producers. Unless it is attractive agriculture, there will be no new producers. We are looking for measures to stop the decrease in raw vegetables. From now on and forever,now and forever...

After Napoleon escaped from exile on Elba, a regiment of French soldiers was dispatched by Louis XVIII to intercept. When he saw them, Napoleon got off and dedicated himself to them. Instead of killing him, the soldiers gathered around the former emperor and returned to Paris with him. This heralds the arrival of a period called Hundred Days, in which Napoleon temporarily regained power before his final defeat at the Battle of Waterloo. He was exiled in 1815, and in 1821, as he had said, his doctor and British doctors dissected him, and announced that the cause of death was gastric cancer. He was 167 centimeters tall and weighed 67.8 kg in 1804, 82.5 kg in 1815, and the highest 90,7 kg in 1820. However, in 1821 when he died, it was reduced to 75.7 kg. Experts are surprised that this drastic weight loss has been associated with malignant tumors of the stomach since the fall of 1820. Charles de Steuben's Romanticism (Romance) expresses emotions, excitement, and irrational things. He was married in 1820 and gained French nationality in 1823. He worked as an art teacher at École Polytechnique to supplement his income, moved to Russia in 1843, and worked for church decorations for 11 years.

From Tsugaru, Osamu Dazai, published by OYAMA Bookstore on November 15, 1944: Kanagi is the town where I was born. Located almost in the center of the Tsugaru Plain, it has a population of 5,000 and 6,000, and although it has no special characteristics, it is a town that is somewhat urban. To put it better, it is a light night like water, and to put it worse, it is a town of vain person with a shallow bottom. Then, about 7.32km south, there is Goshogawara and Ifu Town along the Iwaki River. I realized that my crudeness was the influence of my parents. The blood of our ancestors, who were struck by bad harvests as soon as they were born and grew up by sipping rain dew, cannot be transmitted to us now. Although he escaped from the curse born in the distinguished family, he naturally thinks about his origin when he meets the people who once supported his family. He is the sixth son, but his father, Genemon, is a local celebrity who was adopted by the Matsuki family, a wealthy farmer in a Kizukuri village, and served as a member of the prefectural assembly, a member of the House of Representatives, and a member of the House of Lords due to large tax payments.

【Major features】

“Aomori Prefecture” is located in the northernmost part of Honshu（Oshu: Generally refers to Mutsu Province (the Prefectures of Aomori, Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima）, Japan, and is famous for its role in supporting the foundation of agriculture.It is divided into three areas, Tsugaru, the southern part, and Shimokita, based on the historical background, and it still looks strong and clear. The teachings of our predecessors, who have built their own culture based on the local climate, history（Dating back to the middle of the Jomon period, from B.C. 3000 to B.C. 2000, the remains believed to be the trace of large-scale hottate bashira have been excavated at the Sannai-Maruyama site. On the other hand, rice-paddies did not spread in the Nansei Islands and Sakhalin/Hokkaido, therefore, the Shell mound period and then the Gusuku period followed the Jomon period in the Nansei Islands and Post Jomon period then Satsumon period followed after the Jomon period in Sakhalin/Hokkaido (Although there was an example of a rice-paddy during the early Yayoi period shown in the Tareyanagi site in Aomori Prefecture, rice-paddy cultivation also did not widely spread in Tohoku region in Honshu until the middle to the late Yayoi period and some theoretical views that Post Jomon period followed as in Hokkaido.)）and climate, are still warm. The forest area occupies about 66% of the total land of the prefecture. There are many active volcanoes such as Mt. Iwaki, Mt. Hakkoda, and Mt. Osorezan. The Ou Mountains run vertically in the center, and from the Hakkoda Mountains, which is the northern end of the Mountains, to the Natsudomari Peninsula. It is divided into the eastern part (south of the prefecture) and the western part (Tsugaru) with the central mountain range leading to the western part of the Shimokita Peninsula as the boundary. In the southwestern part, the Shirakami Mountains, which has been registered as a ‘World Natural Heritage Site’ as the world's largest virgin forest of fagus crenata blume, is colored. The Tsugaru Peninsula can be seen north of the Tsugaru Plain, and Tappizaki can be seen at the northern end.Japan's largest sand hills, Sarugamori sand, continue for 17 km along the Pacific coast, and the largest Ogawara lake in the prefecture (62 km2). From the north to the Shimokita Peninsula, Omazaki welcomes you to the northernmost tip of Honshu. Surrounded by the Sea of ​​Japan, the Tsugaru Straits and the Pacific Ocean on three sides, the total coastline is approximately 796 km. It holds Mutsu Bay, which is a large inner bay, in the center: As a production area for farmed scallops（Mizuhopecten yessoensis（Emishi）(Jay, 1856)）, it is entertaining tourists and others.In the surrounding area, the tsushima current moves northward along the sea of ​​Japan, and a part of it enters the tsugaru strait and becomes warm current, moving southward in the Pacific Ocean. Offshore, this Tsugaru warm current, the “Oyashio” Current from the north, and the “Kuroshio（Black）” Current from the south continue to collide over time. A lot of plankton that feed fish are generated in the sea area where they collide with each other, and many fish gather and a rich fishing ground prospers. The climate varies greatly depending on the region, especially the heavy snowfall in the Tsugaru region in winter and the Pacific side in summer; The easterlies (Yamase) is a typical difference. In the emotional winter, cold and moist air hits the Ou Mountains and snows in the Tsugaru region. On the Pacific side, I hear from residents that there are many dry sunny days with the Ou Mountains as a barrier. Since summer is cold and moist, there are many cold and humid days on the Pacific side. You can enjoy the beautiful natural environment because the changing seasons are clear. Aomori Nebuta (the nighttime festival in Aomori) (Aomori City, Aomori Prefecture) : A total of more than 2 million tourists visit each year, and it seems that the voice of joy can be heard so far（A summer festival to be held from August 2nd to 7th）; The three major festivals in the Tohoku region（The six festivals are the Aomori Nebuta Festival, the Akita Kanto Festival, the Morioka Sansa Odori Festival, the Yamagata Hanagasa Festival, the Sendai Tanabata Festival, and the Fukushima Waraji Festival）. It is said that it is a variant of the Tanabata festival lanterns, but its origin is unknown to its predecessors. “Tanabata Festival” that came from China during the Nara period (710-794) + The customs that have been in Tsugaru since ancient times and events such as sending spirits, dolls, and sending insects are integrated. It is speculated that when bamboo and candles became widespread, they became lanterns, which changed into dolls and fan “Nebuta”. The Tanabata Festival is a Misogi（Ablution）event that drains dirt into rivers and the sea on the night of July 7. However, there also exists toro which are used indoors as on a Buddhist altar, such as oki-doro (one variety of nonbasic-type ishi-doro, which has no sao and therefore whose chudai is directly mounted on a natural stone serving as a base, note: the term “nonbasic” means that any of the basic parts of ishi-doro, that is, hoju, kasa, hibukuro, chudai, sao and kiso, is missing) and tsuri-doro (hanging toro), as well as being a portable toro for use in a festival (such as one used in Nebuta Festival, which is held in Aomori Prefecture, and Yamaga road used in Kumamoto Prefecture). Shed the lanterns and prayed to her ancestors for a disease-free life. Folklore distribution and dialectology such as Tohoku region, Shinetsu region “Nemburi sink”, Kanto region “Nebuchi sink, Neboke sink, Nemutta sink”; Nebuta: Ritual to banish the sleep demon (esp. in Tohoku). The honey is marbling and the sweetness is very strong and very rich. Other folk events having a characteristic of the preliminary celebration include events of literally, rice planting in the garden such as 'literally, race planting in snow' in Yoshida, Yokote City, Akita Prefecture and 'Enburi (a rice planting dance named after a tool for rice field preparation)' in Hachinohe City, Aomori Prefecture. Over again, 'Lake Towada and the Oirase-gawa River' ranging from Akita Prefecture to Aomori Prefecture is designated in the two categories of 'Special Places of Scenic Beauty' and 'Natural Monuments' for its values. Vitaceae includes not only grapes, wild grapes, ampelopsis glands, treebines, and ivy, but also weeds such as Cayratia japonicum. It is a vine or herb that is eventually vine and has tendrils and suckers with altered stems. Most of the plants of the Grapes family become woody vines, but the herbaceous roots that die above the ground every year, the herbs that do not make vines, or the Cissus modesta, which originates in Southeast Asia, are succulent and diameter. A large number of aerial roots of 1 to 2 mm are hung on the ground in a vine shape to absorb rain and dew condensation water at night. On the other hand, some species have become taller. About 700 species of 11 genera are distributed all over the world, mainly in the tropics and subtropics, but it seems that 15 species of 5 genera such as grape genus, Cayratia japonicum, ampelopsis genus, and ivy genus grow naturally in Japan from ancient times. Ivy stretches a tendril with a sucker at the tip, so it can be climbed on the wall, but many tendrils in the vine family climb on a vertical surface like a wall because they are entwined with other things. Is difficult. The poison ivy of the family Rhus family is not a tendril, but it grows on the aerial roots that extend from the stem to the ground, so it seems that it can climb even on a vertical surface. Many vines have beautifully colored leaves. It is reported that the leaves turn red in autumn and fall in winter. It's really emotional and I don't feel like it's almost like a human half-life. According to folklore, it was during the Nara period that it came to Japan. It is presumed that it came from Tang via the Silk Road from the place of origin. In 718, Gyoki（a monk of the Hosso sect of the Nara period. Born in Otori District (currently Osaka Prefecture.）, a high priest who traveled to various places, set up a medicinal garden at Kashiwaoyama Daizenji Temple in Katsunuma, Kai Province (Koshu City, Yamanashi Prefecture (formerly Katsunuma Town)), where he began cultivating grapes (Koshu species). Also, in 1186, at the end of the Heian period, it is said that the beginning of viticulture was that Kageyu AMEMIA, a resident of Katsunuma Kai Province, found and raised a rare fruit tree from the mountains. In any case, Japanese vineyards seem to begin with the cultivation of the “Koshu” variety, a type of European grape, near what is now Koshu City, Yamanashi Prefecture. Viticulture has spread among farmers around Katsunuma since the Kamakura period, and it is believed that Koshu grapes gained fame during the Edo period. According to world folklore, around 8000 BC, grapes were detected as fruits in the early agricultural culture of West Asia from the ruins of Tel Abu Freira (modern Jordan, Tel Aswad) in Syria. Around 3500 BC, the Sumerians of the Mesopotamian civilization (the southern half of Babylonia, now occupied by Iraqi Quate), which flourished between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, created wedges and said, Grape berries hang down. It was nice to see the green leaves on it, said the word grape, which seems to have left the oldest record. As a long historical fact before that, it was an important plant in people's lives, and it must have been eaten continuously. After that, it is said that the Semitic people who migrated to rich Egypt from Canaan (ancient place name in the area between the Mediterranean River, the Jordan River, and the Dead Sea) introduced the method of cultivating grapes and the method of making wine, and the early Egyptian dynasty. It is a famous story that it was discovered after burying a bunch of grapes side by side in a tomb of the era (around 3100 BC). Around 2000 BC, the Phoenicians (people who lived in the area equivalent to what is now Lebanon) went to Crete in the Aegean Sea and around 1300 BC to the cultivation method and processing of grapes (wine, dried grapes, etc.) ) Is known to have been transmitted, and the theory that eventually spread to Europe is valid. In Aomori Prefecture, grape production is flourishing in the Tsugaru and Minami regions of the prefecture. Especially in the Tsugaru region, the production of the black grape variety “Stuben” is flourishing. It is characterized by its unique aroma and sweetness, has a high sugar content, and has excellent storability compared to other varieties, so it seems to be evaluated. In the southern part of the prefecture, “Campbell Early（Born in the United States in 1892, the parental crossing is said to be “Moore Early” × “Belbidere” × “Muscat Hamburg”. It is said that it was brought to Japan in 1897 by Mr. Zenbei Kawakami, the founder of “Iwanohara Vineyard” in Joetsu City, Niigata Prefecture.）” is produced due to the difference in climatic characteristics. Among the white varieties for raw consumption, varieties such as “Portland（Parents are “Champion” and “Lute”. Native to the United States. Designated as an excellent variety in Hokkaido in 1973. It is a white raw edible variety with a lot of sweetness, juicy and strong aroma.  Harvest is from mid-August to late September.）” and “Niagara（In 1872, A white grape variety, a hybrid of Concord（Selected from wild grapes in Concord, Massachusetts State: Ephraim Wales Bull in 1849）and “Cassady”. The peel and flesh are easy to separate, the skin color at maturity is greenish yellow to white yellow, and the flesh is soft and juicy. Extremely high sugar content.It is used not only for raw food but also for processing juice and wine. Although it depends on the cultivation method and environment, the sugar content is around 16 degrees, and if it is sweet, it exceeds 20 to 21 degrees, which is beyond imagination. The unique strong scent is remarkably stronger than other varieties. It is a variety with excellent cold resistance and tends to be produced in regions with cool climates. The ripening period is from late August to early September. A unique source of scent-Fox grapes（foxey flavor））” are produced.  The red variety “Sunny Rouge（In 1977, at the Akitsu Branch of the Fruit Tree Experiment Station (currently the Grape and Kaki Research Department, Fruit Tree Research Institute, Agricultural Technology Research Organization), a tetraploid early-maturing line was bred by crossing “Pione” with “Red Pearl”. Since 1992, the strain name of Grape Akitsu No. 18 has been given, and the characteristics have been examined by submitting it to the 8th strain adaptability test of grapes. Named in August 1997 based on the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, New Species Naming Registration Regulations for Raised Agricultural Products. It was registered as “Grape Agriculture and Forestry No. 15”. Based on the Seed and Seedling Law, the variety was registered as the registration number “8561” in December 2000.）” has no seeds and tastes good, so consumers are expecting future production. It was born in 1947 at the New York Agricultural Experiment Station in the United States by crossing “Wayne” and “Sheridan”. The sugar content is 4 degrees higher than that of the “Campbell” variety, which was the main variety at that time, and is 18 degrees or more. It is a popular variety because it is normally refrigerated for 2 months. I heard that it was transmitted to Japan from the United States in 1952. Among them, the Tsugaru region is located at the same latitude as New York, USA, where Steuben was born, and because of the climate, it is said to boast the largest acreage and production volume in Japan. In 1965, the policy of reducing acreage (under cultivation) led to the conversion of paddy fields to grapes. The main variety at that time was “Campbell”. Breeding in Aomori Prefecture began in 1968. 1972 Several producers switch to Steven. Junichiro Kimura, the chairman of the Prefectural Grape Association at the time of 1974, noticed its sweetness and storability. 1979 Established “Tsugaru Grape Association” centered on producers in Tsuruta Town, Kitatsugaru District. In 2000, “Tsugaru Grape Village” was established by 32 producers. Steuben in Tsuruta Town is a grape with seeds that is cultivated naturally in the cold land of Tsugaru. Not to mention the fruits, in fact, the area between the skin and the fruits is said to be the sweetest. Since the seeds are a little sour, the locals seem to swallow the fruit inside without chewing, and also suck the juice left on the skin. It seems to be the recommended way of eating by the locals. The appeal is that the sweetness is around 20 degrees sugar content and it is highly storable. The harvest is at its peak from early to mid-October, but I've heard that it can be eaten until the end of February as well as Christmas and New Year by storing it at a low temperature. Features: The flesh is round, the flesh is lumpy, and the taste is good. The tree vigor is medium and the disease resistance is rather strong. There is little flowering and no fruit cracking.  Freezing resistance is weak. It is said that the one with a strong color, the grain is taut, and the whitish powder “Bloom（Natural ingredients made of fatty acids, etc., are exposed on the surface of the pericarp. Fruit powder has the function of repelling rain and morning dew to prevent diseases and preventing water evaporation to maintain freshness, and producers handle it carefully so as not to drop it when harvesting. When washing the fruit bunches, there is no need to force them off. It is harmless, but rather a proof of freshness.）” is attached, and the shaft is solid is good. The grains at the tip of the tufts are the easiest to ripen, so those with tension are outstandingly fresh. Seeds are removed when making wine, and some people throw them away when eating, but they are actually very nutritious and moisturize the body. In recent years, it is clear that grape seed oil and supplements obtained from extracts have been attracting attention in the market. Polyphenol itself, which is abundant in seeds, is also a pigment and astringent component of grape skin, and is expected to have the effect of suppressing the oxidation of cholesterol in the blood, preventing arteriosclerosis, and preventing heart disease caused by it. Anthocyanin, a type of polyphenol and a natural pigment component, is said to be effective for cataracts, eyestrain, and blood circulation disorders. In addition to this, the reason for the purple fruit skin is expected to be effective. It is cultivated by adopting the only “Tsugaru-style improved tailoring method” in Japan, which combines techniques called hedge tailoring, ultra-long tree pruning, and strong pinching. Hedge tailoring is a pruning method in which a stake is struck in a field and a wire is laid between them. Compared to general grape cultivation, the height at which grapes grow is low, and the fruit grows at the height of human breasts. By doing this, it seems that the growing condition of the trees will improve and the number of fruits in the bunch will increase. I hear that ultra-long tree pruning is a pruning method that leaves 1 to 3 m of branches and absorbs a lot of nutrients by photosynthesis to produce large fruits. If the tip of a tree branch is too long, it will take more nutrients to grow the branch than to produce fruit, so pruning. It seems to be a very difficult technique to identify and prun the branches of large fruits. Strong pinching is to reduce the number of leaves before flowering to 4 to 3 instead of the general 5 leaves, thereby increasing the number of grains from 70 to 80, which is said to be the general average number, and the density. How to increase. In addition, the denseness of the fruits reduces the number of parts that come into contact with the air and has the effect of preventing drying, which leads to an increase in storability. “Tsuruta Steuben” is registered in the “Geographical Indication Protection System”, which protects local agriculture, forestry and fishery products and foods as a brand.  (Registration No. 75, March 20, 2019) The characteristics of Tsuruta Steuben are its high sugar content, good storability, and “Tsuruta-style improved tailoring method”, which is a cultivation method unique to Tsuruta Town. Has been evaluated. The registration of Tsuruta Steuben on geographical indications is four items in the prefecture, and the first registration in Japan for grapes. Most of the Stevens on the market in Japan have been postponed to be produced in Aomori Prefecture, but Fujisaki Town, Minamitsugaru District is also famous as a production area. I would like to write a little about the climate. Fujisaki Town”, Minamitsugaru District is located in the center of the Tsugaru Plain, Aomori Prefecture. It borders Aomori City and Kuroishi City in the east, Hirosaki City in the west, Itayanagi Town in the north, and Inakadate Village in the south. It is about 25 km from the town center to Aomori City, the capital of the prefecture, and about 9 km to Hirosaki City. With a total area of ​​37.29 km2, there are no mountains or wilderness in the town area, and the geology belongs to the Quaternary alluvium, and it is blessed with fertile soil suitable for agriculture. The climate is relatively warm in the Tsugaru Plain, and it is rich in variety, with rich nature surrounded by water and greenery adding color to the four seasons. Former Fujisaki Town is the earliest open land in Tsugaru, and it is believed that people have lived there since prehistoric times because pottery from the late Jomon period was excavated. In the role of nine years ago (1051), an army led by Minamoto no Yoriyoshi and Yoshiie defeated Mr. Abe, a powerful family in Oshu. It is said that Fujisaki is said to be “the birthplace of Tsugaru's history” because it is said that he built a castle and established Mr. Ando. Based in Fujisaki, which is proud of it, it expanded its power, advanced to Jusan Lake, flew over the Sea of ​​Japan against the background of a strong navy and fleet, and reigned as the champion of Kita-oshu. “The Legend of Gozen” and six plate monuments presumed to be from the Northern and Southern Dynasties have been found, and it is presumed that they had reached a high cultural level under the influence of Kamakura. After Mr. Ando moved out of Tsugaru, he was ruled by Mr. Nanbu, and after the rise of Mr. Tsugaru (Oura) at the end of the 16th century, he was ruled throughout the feudal era. As a village, important public facilities such as a representative office, a hawk waiting area (a place to capture hawks donated to the shogunate), a brewery (a base for collecting and shipping rice grains), and a transmission horse (a base for transporting goods and documents) are established. In 1889, with the enforcement of the “city system and town / village system”, Fujisaki Town, which merged with Fujikoshi Village and Katsuno Village, and Nakajima Village, Obata Village, Yazawa Village, Mizunuma Village, Nakanome Village, Gobayashi Village, and Nishi Nakanome Village, Yoshimukai Village, Kameoka Village, Tawara Village, Shimo Tawara Village, and Kashiwagi Dam Village merged to form a 29.28 miles village, but in 1955 Fujisaki-cho and 29.28 miles village merged on an equal footing, and in 1956. It seems that Hayashizaki was separated from Itayanagi Town and merged into the former Fujisaki Town. In the Kamakura period, the former Tokiwa village became the official position of Ezo Satan as a miuchibito of Mr. Hojo, and in the Muromachi period, it was related to Mr. Ando, ​​a powerful family of Tsugaru who was incorporated into the Kyoto Miuchibito, and Mr. Kitahata of the South Dynasty. It seems that the place name derived from the ruins of the warlord's mansion remains. In the Kamakura period, Kui Natan was said to have been built on a hill surrounded by the Togawa and Namioka rivers (Tokiwa Village magazine). Fukudate is also said to have been attached from a fort built in the Ando period in the Middle Ages. It is said that Kumanomiya was solicited as a mansion god. It is the ruins of the Heijo mansion. The place name of Tokawabata (currently Fukushima district) can be seen in the middle name of Tsugaru District. In this way, it was cultivated as a rich rice-growing area from early on. With the enforcement of the municipal system in 1889, it became Tokiwa Village and Tomiki Tate Village, and in 1924, the villagers' long-cherished desire to open “Kita Tokiwa Station” on the Ou Main Line (between Hiromae and Aomori) was realized. With the founding of Transport Co., Ltd., the transportation of straw products in addition to rice and apple agricultural products has become active, bringing great results to the daily lives of villagers and greatly contributing to the development of industrial development. As the first merger, Tokiwa Village and Tomiki Tate Village merged, and in 1955, the-department of the Mitsuya district of the neighboring village Rokukan Village was incorporated to become the former Tokiwa Village. New Fujisaki Town was born as the smallest town in the prefecture by the equal merger of former Fujisaki Town and former Tokiwa Village on March 28, 2005. It seems that New Town is promoting new town development in order to take advantage of the favorable location conditions, inherit the results of town development that each town and village has been working on, and further develop and leap forward in the future. Under the slogan of “a rich and gentle town created by everyone,” “a town that entrusts the future to children, a town that is easy to grow,” “a town that connects cities, a town that is easy to go out,” and “a town that is fragrant with water and green rural culture,” I will aim.  It is a town famous as the birthplace of the most famous apple variety, “Fuji”. Although it is the second smallest town in the prefecture, it is located in the middle of the Tsugaru Plain, blessed with soil and climatic conditions suitable for agriculture, and is a town where agricultural products are prosperous. In this town, there is a group of young farmers called “Wagemond”, which is formed by young farmers under the age of 45. This group is a project team whose basic purpose is to sell what they produce. 

The season is from the end of October to February. It is suitable for storage due to its high sugar content, and it is stored in a dedicated facility that applies the storage technology of Aomori apples, so it can be eaten deliciously even during the cold winter. It is medium-grained, purple-red-black, and grows in plenty of sunlight, so it contains a lot of polyphenols, and with the help of the cold land of Tsugaru, it is cultivated with a minimum amount of pest control agents.

The Agricultural Experiment Station in New York, USA, began by crossing and cultivating a variety called “Shrindan Grape” × “Wayne Grape”. Is Tsuruta Town and Inakadate Village, and is a special production area that accounts for 80% of the national production.

Not to mention the fruits of “Vitis vinifera”, it is said that “between the skin and the fruits” is actually the sweetest. Since the seeds are a little sour, the locals seem to swallow the fruit inside without chewing and suck the juice left on the skin in order to taste it more.
