Hundred Years of Warehouse (2018) Distribution: Visual Folklore-A documentary that explores the background of the rice riots that led to the resignation of the Masatake TERAUCHI Cabinet when it spread nationwide in 1918. Members, mainly high school students, explore the materials and legends left in Uozu City, Toyama Prefecture, which is said to be the birthplace of the US turmoil, visit their descendants, and capture their traces. On the morning of July 23, 1918, dozens of fishermen's wives, who were suffering from a sharp rise in rice prices from the cage, blocked the work of shipping rice from the Hachijuni Bank's rice brewery to a steamship moored at Uozu Beach. This was because the export of rice to Hokkaido was considered to be the cause of the sharp rise in rice prices. When this was reported in a national newspaper, the riots spread nationwide, evoking the sympathy of people struggling to live. As a result, he resigned from the Terauchi Cabinet at that time. About 100 years later, local people stood up to check the actual situation and truth of what happened in Uozu City, Toyama Prefecture, which is said to be the birthplace of the rice turmoil, and visited the remaining materials, legends, and descendants. Eventually, it emerges that the events that took place in Uozu were not violent, but were the plea of ​​the fishermen's wives, whose households were tight due to the surge in rice prices. Starting from the rice brewery that has existed since that time, members, mainly high school students, trace the traces of the rice riots. The story is about Akira JIN, directed by B-saku SATO(Narration)., An actor from Fukushima City.

YUJI KOSEKI (古関裕而: real name, 古関勇治) was born in Omachi, Fukushima City in 1909, and joined Nippon Columbia Co., Ltd. as a composer in September 1930.

He has released bright songs such as “Tongari Hat” and “Nagasaki no Kane” that give hope to the future and is sung by many people. Furthermore, in combination with Mr. Kazuo KIKUTA, he has been focusing on broadcasting works since 1947, and released theme songs such as NHK radio drama “Kane no Naru Oka”, “Sakuranbo Admiral”, “Your Name”, etc. What I did is too famous. Received the 1953 NHK Broadcast Culture Award for his achievements in various broadcasting-related fields. Old man composes cheering songs for baseball teams and makes a great contribution to the promotion of professional baseball. Most people think of giants and the Hanshin Tigers as “eternal rivals” in professional baseball. Mr. Koseki, who composed the cheering songs for both, created the heart of each fan, enlivened the competition between these rivals who have built many traditions, and greatly contributed to the development of professional baseball.

We would like to express our deepest sympathies and condolences for the death and pray for the souls from the bottom of our hearts. With gratitude and respect for the pioneer farmers who laid the foundation. “ORIN” : It is famous as a variety that boasts the second highest production volume after “Fuji Apple” and “Tsugaru Apple”, and many people like it. The variety has not been registered by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries. Mr. Tadanosuke OTSUKI from Koori Town, Date District, Fukushima Prefecture was trained. We will select the seeds of “Golden Delicious” and work on improving apple varieties from around 1931. Cabinet of Mr. Osachi HAMAGUCHI(Kochi City, Kochi Prefecture,Minsei Party) on April 13, 6th year Cabinet of Mr. Wakatsuki Reijiro (Matsue City, Shimane Prefecture, Minsei Party) on April 14th, in Japan.February 14, Mitsubishi Oil (currently Eneos) establishment date. While repeating the breeding of the seedlings, it first bears fruit in 1943 and is tested. It is said that the seedlings were born from the combination with “Indo (pollen)”. Japan's first apple born in Hirosaki City, Aomori Prefecture. The name is to hold the key to, which is important for john ing, who was a school teacher in hirosaki city: late variety. Proliferated on grafts as raw wood, cultivated, and shipped to the suburbs of Tokyo. In 1961, 45 Koori farmers gathered to form the “Orin Meeting”, and Orin's original bagless cultivation technology was established here. It has a unique appearance and flavor, and the fruit shape is a long cone. The pericarp is slightly greenish yellow, and crack-like rust is likely to occur on the surface, and the fruit points are a little conspicuous, which is awkward and arouses appetite. Logs are weakened by the damage of the longhorn beetle(Cerambycidae). It sprouted from seeds from 1938 and lived until 2004, but soon felled. I have lived up to this point with the efforts of tree doctors and related parties. Orin, filled with the wishes of producers, will not stop expanding its scale. Because there are people who love me. Like Indo, it is a late-maturing species with low acidity and strong sweetness. The unique sweet fragrance becomes a habit.(Development of Early Watercore in 'Orin' Apples Grown in Warmer Regions and its Physiology, Faculty of Agriculture, Ehime University with Journal of the Japanese Society for Horticultural Science 2001)The changes in physiological factors such as membrane permeability and sorbitol content in the fruit during summer play an important role in inducing early watercore in apples. We propose that the physiological mechanism of early watercore development in immature apples is similar to that of high temperature-induced watercore during maturation but differs from that of low temperature-promoted late watercore. One apple a day keeps the doctor away: Derived from Wales. Western Fukushima wide-area farm road: A route that was developed by the wide-area farm road development project in the western Fukushima area and was fully opened in August 1995. The starting point is the intersection of National Highway No. 13 in Nakano, Iizakamachi, and the ending point is the Mizuhara Fukushima Line of Fukushima Prefectural Road No. 148 in Oda. The area near the start and end points is a road that runs through the mountains at the outer edge of the Fukushima Basin, but the other sections follow the foot of the mountain at the western end of the Fukushima Basin. All lines are Fukushima city roads, and from the starting point to the city's Osasasei character Orito's choji road, it is part of the general city road 40801 Kaminoura Higashidoya line, general city road 40728 Orito Ginzan line, from Osasao to Sabara (In front of Fukushima Prefectural Azuma General Gymnasium) is part of the second-class city road 116 Sabara Orito line, and from Sabara to Arai (at the intersection of national road 115) is part of the first-class city road 39 Ashiomae Jizohara line. , From Arai to Oda, the end point, is designated as the second-class city road No. 125 Oda Arai Line. As with the Fukushima Prefectural Road No. 5 Kaminakura Iizaka Date Line (Fruit Line), which runs parallel to the east side, orchards are lined up because it is a fan-shaped area that spreads out at the foot of Mt. It shows the role of connecting each facility group of the sports park, tourist spots such as Mizubayashi Nature Forest, Shiki no Sato, and Anna Garden with the main road such as National Highway No. 115. Enter the Takayu hot spring(A hot spring resort located on the eastern hem of Mt. Azuma. There are many sources and the amount of hot water is very abundant. You can enjoy the open-air bath while looking at the mountains, and it is known as a national hot spring resort. Located at an altitude of 750 m. The quality of the spring is sulfur spring.

The store is fully air-conditioned and sells freshly picked peaches, pears, grapes and apples. I heard that strawberries are lined up in stores during the off-season, and that they also carry a large number of souvenirs. Fresh fruits are sold for souvenirs and gifts. We also accept nationwide shipping.

Fukushima City is located in the northern part of Fukushima Prefecture, and is a town that spreads out in a basin surrounded by the Azuma mountain range in the west and the Abukuma Highlands in the east. Fukushima prefecture in the southern part of the Tohoku region. The city is in the north. The basin has a hot summer and a cold winter. Due to this temperature difference, agricultural products such as fruits grow deliciously. Prehistoric Fukushima City seems to have been on the seabed after being separated from the continent. After that, it became uplifted and landed, and sedimentary layers were formed by active volcanic activity. Due to subsidence, lakes were formed in the north and marshes and swamps were formed in the south. Then, the subsidence continued, and the sedimentary basin of the alluvial fan was formed by the sediment of the river, and the subsidence is still continuing. In addition, the Abukuma River created a floodplain while changing the flow path each time a flood occurred. Many Jomon settlements were born in this area rich in nature, blessed with rivers and mountains. After the Yayoi period, the area was under the control of the Yamato administration during the Kofun period, and became Shinobu noKoori in the 7th century. The connection with the imperial court in the Nara and early Heian periods can be seen in the ruins of the county, the ruins of the Koshihama abandoned temple, the ruins of the Nishihara abandoned temple, and Kiyoakizuka. After Mr. Sato ruled this area of ​​Oshu Fujiwara's villa, and after the conquest of Oshu by Minamoto no Yoritomo-Ko at the end of the Heian period, Mr. Date will rule this area for a long time until it became the territory of Ujisato Gamo-Ko in 1591. After Mr. Uesugi ruled here in the Edo period, Mr. Honda, Mr. Hotta, and Mr. Itakura ruled the Fukushima clan and reached the Meiji era. In the history of Fukushima City, the major battles fought here in Fukushima are the “Battle of Ishinazaka” and the “Battle of Matsukawa”. There were few other conflicts, and it can be said that it was a relatively peaceful region. In the early Meiji era, the Freedom and People's Rights Movement was active, and the “Fukushima Incident” occurred. Also, from the late Edo period to the Meiji era, the sericulture industry flourished as the center of the Tohoku economy. In order to start farming in Fukushima City, it is necessary to acquire or rent more than 40 ares (4,000 km2) of farmland. Holly of Atago Shrine: Designated Category Fukushima City Designated Natural Monument, December 13, 1963, Location 95, Shimoyokobori, Sasaya, Fukushima City, Owner's Office, Atago Shrine.(栗本堰: In the past, 1,000 hectares of irrigation water and general water for irrigation and general water that straddle Ozaso Village, Sasaya Village, Hirano Village, Yohichi Village, and Fukushima City (Shimizu / Kamada) in the former Shinobu District were used at Kurimoto Weir, Ichino Weir, and Sasaya on the left bank of Matsukawa. It seems that the three weirs of Ozaso were individually drawing water. However, since each weir was an incomplete weir, a large amount of money was required for the water intake facility every year, and the delay in planting the paddy fields downstream caused great damage to the crops. Therefore, from 1946 to 1951, three weirs were merged as a prefectural water improvement project, an intake was established using the Matsukawa sabo dam, the old waterway was expanded, and a new waterway was opened to unite the public and private sectors. I heard that it was completed.)Circular diversion of Kurimoto Weir: An irrigation canal excavated by Sanzaemon Kurimoto during the Edo period. From the left bank of Matsukawa, a tributary of the Abukuma River, three weirs, Kurimoto Weir, Ichi Weir, and Sasaya Oi Weir, were drawing water and were extremely unstable (maintenance and repair of intake points, water intake sequence during drought). From 1946 to 1951, three weirs were merged in the prefectural water improvement project. Furthermore, it is said that a new waterway will be constructed and it will continue to the present day. In addition, it is said that 300 years ago, Sanzaemon made a plan with the permission of Koori Edo-period prefectural governor (magistrate,bailiff), Uemon Takeuchi, and completed the excavation of the irrigation canal and named it Kurimoto Weir. After that, it seems that a circular diversion work was constructed because the three weirs on the left bank of Matsukawa, a tributary of the Abukuma River, draw water individually, which costs a lot of water intake equipment every year. Circular diversion work was an epoch-making work at that time, and from 28 diversion ports provided around the water coming out in the center of the circle, 10 doors in the direction of Ozaso area, Sasaya area depending on the paddy field cultivated area. Irrigation water is distributed as 18 doors in the direction. It is said that this structure maintains the fairness of the amount of water divided and allows the amount of water to be adjusted. I hear that the construction of the Kurimoto Weir and the circular diversion work has brought great benefits not only to more than 1,200 farmers but also to the general public, and has greatly contributed to regional development and industrial development. A waterway that uses the sabo dam of Matsukawa, a tributary of the Abukuma River, in the western part of Fukushima City, Fukushima Prefecture, and has a total length of about 38.5 km. It is sending water to the fruit tree complex. It is said that it is a high-quality concrete that does not seem to be constructed immediately after the war. Since there is no record of a large-scale renovation, it has been nearly 80 years since it started operation. It is natural to think that the main irrigation water is divided into three because the three irrigation waters are integrated into one, but it seems that there is no diversion work other than the water being divided into two here. It seems that the arrangement of cultivated land paintings was almost untouched until the 1980s, so it seems that the arrangement of irrigation relations was done in advance. Paddy fields and mulberry fields were around the time when the circular diversion work was established, but since the 1960s, white peach cultivation has been recommended, and it seems that mulberry fields have been mainly converted to peach fields. Cultivation of shiitake mushrooms in Fukushima Prefecture is particularly active in Kawauchi Village in the Futaba district of Hamadori, Konanmachi in Koriyama City on Nakadori, and the Aizu district. In the past, log cultivation was the mainstream, but due to the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake, the use of logs from Fukushima Prefecture was restricted and it became difficult to procure logs, so the shift to fungal bed cultivation has progressed. Autumn-winter crops (end of September to April of the following year) that are cultivated in a natural environment using a pipe house are the mainstream, and it seems that thick and elastic shiitake mushrooms grow slowly in the cold of winter. The “Zenno Fukushima Shiitake Production and Sales Council”, which is organized by producers who ship to JA Zenno Fukushima Koriyama Gardening Center, is playing a central role in promoting the production of prefectural shiitake mushrooms. “Glymonate”, which has an inhibitory effect, is to be applied without fail. Shiitake mushrooms that meet this condition are sold under the brand “affection shiitake mushrooms”.

In front of Miyamae, Oaza Kamigori, Koori Town, Date District, Fukushima Prefecture, there was a log of Orin that sprouted from seeds around 1938, but it was weakened by the damage of Cerambycidae and could not be recovered even if the tree doctor did everything. , Finally felled in March 2004. A monument to honor Mr. Tadanosuke Otsuki, the grower of Orin, is still built right next to the place where the logs were.

It has a strong sweetness, a weak acidity, and a unique aroma. Okute varieties with a green spotted appearance.

About 50 years before sperm discovery, Dr. W. Hofmeister (German biologist and botanist (1824-1877)) said, “Gymnosperms are not uniform, and sperm form in pollen tubes. There may be something to do.” He observes that plant cells expand and divide at a new wall placed in the center of the cell. During this growth, he recorded that the cell wall swelled in the direction of growth, corresponding to the layers and streaks of the wall. Thus, he identified the fundamental difference between plant and animal development, as animal cells must migrate as the organ develops. His book on plant morphology in 1868 included a study of growth responses to environmental stimuli, especially gravitropism and phototropism. Ginkgo was brought to Europe and was brought back by German E. Kaempfer, a doctor at the Dutch East India Company, when he returned from Japan to the Netherlands in 1692, and he and Ginkgo were given under the scientific name. The consideration of is clear. There is a theory that Mr. Kaempfer mistakenly named the name Ginkgo, but it seems that there is nothing else wrong with it. One of the three scholars of Nagasaki Dejima, the original author of the Japanese magazine (Histoire naturelle, civile, et ecclesiastique de I'empire du Japon)

Exit game, author is Mr. Sei Hatsuno. First edition published by KADOKAWA Bunko: In October 2008, Chika decided to enter high school and start playing the flute, and reunited with her childhood horn player Haruta at the brass band club on the verge of abandonment. Together with their young male teacher, Shinjiro Kusakabe-sensei, the two will spend their days practicing and gathering members, aiming for the national brass band competition “Fumon Hall(If it is the actual product, due to insufficient seismic strength, dismantling work will start in the winter of 2018, and the site will be maintained as a lawn open space in February 2021.)”. There are lots of interesting and funny things like the comic dialogue between him and her, Haruta trying to stop Chika's love affair with all his might, but at the expense of a country like China's one-child policy, the Vietnam War. The episode of a character who lives with a traumatic heart is sad and painful. The high school student conflict, who steps into the truth of the incident and the darkness of social issues, reminds me of myself and my friends when I was young: both arrowroot and wisteria are plant vines, and both are intertwined and difficult to solve. There is no reverberation that matches coherence in the past and present.

【Type】
Ginkgo biloba
【Jurisdiction area】
Shimizu Ward, Shizuoka City, Shizuoka Prefecture, Part of Fuji City (JA Shimizu, JA Shizuoka Keizairen)
【Derived from the name】
It is generally said that Ginkgo, which is pronounced in northern China, has become a ginkgo biloba because of the other name, the northern sound of the duck leg, yājiǎo. It is also written as a maidenhair tree, but the etymology is derived from the fact that in the case of a seedling tree, it takes many years to bear fruit and becomes a grandchild. The products introduced this time will be described in this volume.

JA Shimizu was merged with 9 agricultural cooperatives (Okitsu, Kojima, Ryokawachi, Ihara, Sodeshi, Iida, Takabe, Shimizu, Udo) in the former Shimizu city of Shizuoka prefecture on October 1, 1972. It was born as Shimizu City Agricultural Cooperative (nickname: JA Shimizu City). Since its inauguration, it has been promoting the establishment of agricultural products such as oranges, tea, and flowers under the “Shimizu” brand, but in April 2003, due to the administrative merger of Shizuoka City and Shimizu City, “Shimizu City” disappeared and the new “Shimizu City” was added. Since “Shizuoka City” was born, as a result of establishing a name review committee and discussing it, we emphasized the “Shimizu” brand, and from April 1, 2003, the agricultural cooperative name was “Shimizu Agricultural Cooperative (nickname: JA Shimizu)”. I changed it. On November 1, 2012, JA Surugaji's Yui / Kanbara area (including a part of Fuji City) was taken over by the merger, and it became an agricultural cooperative with the business area in Shimizu Ward, Shizuoka City. Shimizu Ward, Shizuoka City, has prospered for a long time as a production center of Citrus unshiu. However, in the midst of the era of slumping prices since the 1975s, the liberalization of orange imports in the 1985s, and the shortage of successors, we felt that there was a limit to agriculture on steep slopes, and we are working to promote agriculture through large-scale infrastructure development.There seems to be. Until recently, 700 ha was developed in 13 districts of Shimizu Ward, and 350 ha of excellent agricultural land was developed. As a result, labor saving, high quality agricultural products, and productivity improvement. Expansion of management scale by increasing the number of leading farmers (successors) and agglomeration of agricultural land. Reduction of local burden and creation of public works land by creating non-agricultural land. (Shin-Tomei Expressway, National Training Center, Fruit Tree Research Facility, Funeral Hall, Corporate Land, etc.) Introducing a mandarin orange owner system and promoting exchanges with urban residents by holding agriwalking. Strengthen purchase and sale of agricultural products: From sales of agricultural products centered on the wholesale market, we will expand purchase sales centered on direct sales to local supermarkets and antenna shops, and agricultural income by reducing prices and distribution margins that are not affected by the market price (market price). It seems that they are working on improving. In addition, in order to improve the productivity and efficiency of agriculture, it is said that it is supporting the agricultural land development project that will be the basis of agricultural production. I hear that they are proceeding with the flattening of agricultural land, land readjustment, farm road maintenance, and upland irrigation facilities for the purpose of mechanizing agricultural work, accumulating agricultural land on leading farmers, and expanding the scale of management. In addition, it is said that it is aiming for the early realization of modern agriculture that young successors can find attractive through efficient farm management. From 2020 to 2020 (three-year plan): For the three years from 2017 to 2019, we will work toward the realization of “improvement of agricultural income of farmers' union members”, “realization of affluence of living” and “sound management of JA”. It seems that it was possible. For the next three years, in order to further improve services to union members and local residents, we will take bold business measures with the aim of expanding agricultural production and changing the business model in response to changes in the environment of the credit and mutual aid sector. It seems that they are trying (rationalization). It is no exaggeration to say that JA has clear goals even in the national ward. By the way, I would like to introduce the production area, which is also in the jurisdiction from here. First of all, Shimizu Ward seems to have prospered as a post town on the Tokaido, with the development of Shimizu Port, which is a good natural port. Currently, the Shinokitsu container terminal is being developed at Shimizu Port, and further development is expected as a global logistics economic base by promoting the development of the “Chubu Odan Expressway” and “Shin-Tomei Expressway” in the future. It seems that it has been done. It is said that it will continue to create an environment where people can enjoy history and various cultures, promote various local activities, and aim to create a town where people can live with peace of mind throughout their lives. In the waterfront area, hydrophilic spaces such as “Shimizu Marine Park” have been developed, and many luxury cruise ships and sailing ships from around the world call at Hinode Pier every year, making it a place of relaxation for residents to interact with the sea. That's it. Urban development centered on JR Shimizu Station and measures based on the “Shimizu Port Vision” are being promoted, and it seems that the foundation suitable for an international marine cultural city is being established. It is said that it will promote efforts that utilize the diverse potential of the sea and the port, aiming to create vitality and liveliness as a port city overlooking Mt. Fuji. Mt. Fuji seen from “Miho no Matsubara”, Nihondaira and Satta Pass known for the Hagoromo legend; Swan maiden(The origin seems to be various in each country, but even if the celestial maiden is at a loss, after that the celestial maiden became a man's wife, and a few years later the man inadvertently leaked (or the celestial maiden guided and heard) words Those who know the hiding place of Hagoromo and return home, those who become a wife and have many children, but those who find Hagoromo and return to the heavens with the children, the children remain on the ground and become a person who makes a great achievement I hear various stories such as what has become, and what a man or child (in some cases, with the wisdom of the celestial maiden) comes up to the heavens by taking various measures to meet the celestial maiden who has left.)is beautiful, and “Funakoshi Tsutsumi Park” and “Gotenyama” are famous for cherry blossoms. “Miho no Matsubara(In 2013, it was registered as a World Cultural Heritage as a constituent asset of “The object of worship of Mt.

As a special product, the production of green tea and mandarin oranges is famous, and it is also one of the leading rose producing areas in Japan. Frozen tuna, which boasts the best landing in Japan, and marine products such as shirasu and sakura shrimp caught in Suruga Bay seem to be popular as a taste unique to the town blessed with seafood.(Shimizu Port is famous as one of Japan's three major beauty ports, close to Miho Matsubara, which is a constituent asset.

It seems. Through the contest, information on the appeal of green tea in Shimizu Ward is disseminated nationwide. Since it was the birthplace of the Soccer Sports Boy Scouts and the former Shimizu City was also the home town of “Shimizu S-Pulse” when the J League was established, it is said that it is promoting various sports and recreation including soccer. The “Shimizu Minato Festival” held in August every year seems to be an event that truly symbolizes the summer of Shimizu Ward, with about 20,000 people dancing “Port Kappore(kappore, kappore, kappore, kappore, Altogether, Altogerther now
kappore, kappore, kappore, kappore, I'm movin'up, I'm movin'up)” and 10,000 fireworks coloring the night sky. Now, let's move on, but the existing ecology ofc “ginkgo” is one family, one genus, and one species. The origin of Kyuju to be introduced is the log at Mr. Hisao Tomita's house in Yamazaki, Sobue Town, Nakashima District, Aichi Prefecture (currently Terauch, Sobue, Inazawa City). This species is said to have been grafted about 150 to 160 years ago by Mr. Kujiro, the great-grandfather of Mr. Hisao, but the care of the scion is unknown. It is said that it was first popularized in the Yamazaki village as “Kyuju Ginkgo” during the time of Hisao's grandfather, Hisatoshi(Kyuju), and it seems that 80% of the ginkgo trees in the village were occupied at that time. It seems that the name was changed from Kyuji to kyuju in the 1955s. It is upright during the young tree era, but seems to gradually open up. I heard that the fruiting period begins early, and that fruiting will begin 5 to 6 years after the high connection. The outer seed coat (flesh) of the fruit is thin, the yield of the shell fruit is about 30%, the shape of the shell fruit is large with a rich circle, and it seems that there is little pockmark.The average grain weight is about 3.8 g, the vertical mystery is about 20 cm, the thickness is about 16 mm, and the thickness of the shell (medium seed coat) is about 0.7 mm. At the beginning of fruiting, it is a big fruit, and the weight at the time of adjustment is expected to reach about 5 g. The varieties are very good and the shells tend to harden early. I have heard from local farmers that the harvest can be adjusted from mid-August. The yellowing ripening period is OKute in mid-October, but it seems that it is not very suitable for year-round shipment due to the high consumption rate during storage. Since ginkgo is dioecious, it is clear that ginkgo grows fertile and high-quality female trees by vegetative propagation for the purpose of producing ginkgo. Cuttings are also possible, and the rooting rate tends to increase due to mist breeding or deep cutting. When breeding in large quantities, an efficient grafting method is common. Since it is good at tall trees, it is necessary to keep a large area occupied by one plant for planting. However, as a result, the age is close to that of other fruit trees, and I hear that it is better to carry out planned dense planting and proceed with thinning and thinning prior to the expansion of the canopy. The planting distance depends on the topography, soil fertility, etc., but the standard is to plant 30 to 40 trees per 10 a, 5 to 6 m square, and thin them to half of that in the near future, basically to the initial 20% quintile. It seems. The planting period is from November to February, and it is advisable to dig the planting holes as deep as possible and apply compost. It seems that it is even better if there are several male trees per ha in the end. The cutting back of the planted seedlings depends on the pruning method, and only the case of interest is cut back at 50 cm. In native species, pruning and pruning are rarely performed. Most of them are main trunks and large trees. When cultivating large-grain varieties, I think that pruning and pruning are necessary like ordinary fruits. As I mentioned earlier, it seems that it will take 5 to 6 years at the earliest to reach the age, and about 20 years to reach the peak. In order to grow quickly and raise the harvest, it is important to manage the compost sufficiently and to make the basics of the tree shape quickly. Fertilizer is compost, chicken manure, and forcing fertilizer. In particular, it is advisable to apply a large amount of phosphoric acid and potassium to promote the elongation and enlargement of new shoots to form branches with full buds and to form short fruit branches. The original fertilizer is applied from November to December to promote root growth. The actual fertilizer increases or decreases depending on the state of the result amount, but the time is around the time when the physiological fruit drop is completed, and it is better from May to early June. The leaves are susceptible to salt damage. It is sensitive enough to be used as an indicator plant for how far the sea breeze flew during a typhoon, and in large trees, leaves may fall only on one side upwind. As a countermeasure, it seems that it is basic to avoid areas where the sea breeze is likely to hit. For diseases, Rhizoctonia solani(It is a type of filamentous fungus and belongs to the imperfect fungus. It is a soil-borne disease, and the pathogenic bacteria are in the form of hyphae and sclerotium, which pass through the soil together with the residue of the damaged strain. And cause damage. As for the disease, it seems that the whole plant is poorly grown and the leaf color is bad, and the foliage is wilted during the daytime on a sunny day. As the disease progresses, it withers from the lower leaves, and the stems near the ground turn brown and rot. As the disease progresses further, the growth becomes extremely poor, and eventually the entire strain withers and dies. It tends to occur frequently under conditions of high soil moisture and poor drainage, such as after heavy rainfall in the leaves.), Cryphonectria parasitica(At the beginning of the disease, the bark turns reddish brown and softens. Then, a large number of small bumps called child seats are formed on the lesion, and the surface of the bark becomes like a shark skin. When it gets wet with rain, a yellow-brown to orange-yellow lint-like mucilage erupts from the child seat. As the lesion ages, it cracks and easily peels off, and fan-shaped pale yellow hyphae form under the bark. When the lesion goes around the trunk and branches, the part above it withers. In the fruit, the skin turns dark brown and the flesh turns brown and rots. The leaves turn yellow from the tip and wilt, and eventually die, but they do not fall and remain on the branches even in winter. In addition, I hear that trees affected by this disease often have many branches under the lesion.), Cercospora sequoiae(Brown to dark brown spots are formed, dented and cracked. Eventually, the affected area turns reddish brown and tends to die. Black spots can be seen in the affected area. It seems that the disease starts from the bottom of the tree and gradually spreads toward the top.), Sclerotium rolfsii Curzi(Initially, a dark brown, slightly concave lesion is formed on the edge of the stem, which expands and surrounds the stem, causing a constriction and dying on the above-ground part. White silk-like molds form mats on the lesion and on the surrounding ground surface, and then a large number of white to yellow-brown sclerotia are formed on it. In addition to stems, it often tends to form lesions on areas that come into contact with the ground, such as leaves and fruits. The optimum temperature for disease onset is 25 to 35 ° C, and it occurs during the high temperature period in summer. When a large amount of immature organic matter is applied near the ground surface, pathogens grow using it and this disease occurs frequently. The sclerotium seems to survive for a long time in the soil. It is transmitted by sclerotium, but sclerotium tends to be killed by flooding. I heard that solar heat soil disinfection is also effective.), etc. However, the damage caused by these seems to be very small. Pests appear to include Caligula japonica(The larvae feed on the leaves. After middle-aged larvae, the insect body grows larger and the amount of leaves eaten increases, so feeding damage progresses rapidly, and it is not uncommon for all leaves to be eaten up. For this reason, it affects the tree vigor, fruit enlargement, and ripening, and the number of sterile fruits increases. Adults have a wing spread of about 10 to 13 cm. Eggs are bale-shaped with a major axis of 2-3 mm, the outer shell is hard and taupe or taupe, and there are black circles on the apex. Eggs are laid by laying 50 to 100 eggs in a relatively low part of the trunk. Larvae have long white hair and short black hair up to the second instar. The 3rd and 4th instar larvae have a black body color and yellow hair. At 5 years of age or older, the body color is yellowish green, and white long hairs grow densely on the back. Aged larvae are said to be 10 cm or more in length.), Hepialus humuli(Female moths drop eggs on the ground at dusk from August to September, flying actively like bats. The larvae that overwinter with eggs and hatch the next spring grow on herbs such as Japanese knotweed and Japanese knotweed, and pierce the trunk of the tree from June to July to infiltrate. Around early August, the penetration hole is covered with insect droppings and pupated there. The pupal period is 2-3 weeks. If the stem is severely damaged, it may die. If you find a hole, insert a wire and stab the larva. Undergrowth is cut to control the larvae that inhabit herbs. Particular attention should be paid to the removal of vines.), and Acalolepta(The body is small, and both males and females are about 10 mm long. The upper wing has an irregular pattern with white hair and yellowish brown hair mixed together. It inhabits lowland to mountainous grasslands, and adults appear in June to August and eat the leaves and stems of Artemisia japonica. Since it strongly depends on the grassland environment where the host plant Artemisia japonica grows, it seems to be very susceptible to environmental changes. It seems that the number of individuals has decreased sharply due to changes in vegetation, but what about Shimizu Ward?). Going forward, it is widely known worldwide that Mr. Sakugoro Hirase discovered in 1896 that sperm can be produced from pollen using ginkgo trees at the Botanical Garden of the University of Tokyo. It is also a pioneer in the discovery of sperm in flowering plants. A male tree is required for pollination. The fruit continues to grow even if it is not pollinated, but it seems that it is easy to drop if it is not pollinated. Later pollen is thought to have a function of giving fruit set by the influence of endogenous hormones, etc. If the purpose is to produce ginkgo, the soil is shallow and the soil is easy to dry. , It seems that it is better to avoid areas where sea breeze damage and late frost are frequent. In addition, it seems that the yield is difficult to increase in locations where frost is likely to occur during the flowering period. Therefore, the suitable land for cultivation is a fertile land with deep soil such as alluvium, which has abundant water retention capacity, and it is said that the condition is that there are few meteorological disasters. Lastly, within the JA jurisdiction, referring to the Shimizu cheering party project, agricultural products purchased directly from union members are sold at “Antenna Shop Kirari” (Shimizu Ward, Shizuoka City) operated by the JA, and part of the sales. By donating (5% for tea and 3% for agricultural products) to Ashinaga (organization), we have adopted a mechanism to support the future of children. According to the JA, since agricultural products are purchased and sold directly, the generation of intermediate margins can be significantly suppressed, and agricultural products can be purchased from farmers at a price higher than the market price, and at the same time, retail stores are available to consumers. It is said that it is possible to provide fresh agricultural products at a lower price than the above. Is there a new attempt for private companies to take this opportunity?

C9H17NO5 plays an important role in assisting enzymes essential for metabolism and energy production of sugars, lipids and proteins. It is also involved in the synthesis of cholesterol, hormones, immune antibodies, etc. From these things, it also leads to maintaining the health of the skin and mucous membranes. In addition to nourishing tonic and fertility effects, it also has the function of warming the bladder and lungs, and is expected to be effective in improving pollakiuria and nocturnal enuresis, treating asthma, damming, and sputum cutting.

The recommended Capsicum annuum Group has the image of a crop in a warm place, but it seems that it is also cultivated in cool Hokkaido in the hot summer. In Furano, several producers have been planting for a long time, but I heard that they introduced a sorting machine in 1996 to expand the production area. Since then, the area has been expanded since the merger in 2001, and the planting area is about 4 hectares; 40000 m2, producing about 170 tons of green peppers. Originally, it is famous as a kind of chili pepper that is said to be native to the tropics of Central America and South America. In French, the large and sweet one is called piment, and it has come to be called piman in Japan. Bell pepper is a general term for chili peppers that are not spicy.

From the northern country, winter edition of 1983: Goro Kuroita (Kunie Tanaka) and Kuma-san (Yusuke Nagumo) went to work in Tokyo from November, and Jun (Hidetaka Yoshioka) and Hotaru (Tomoko Nakajima) were in a hut. I lived away from home. The Goro and his friends came back at the end of the year to celebrate the New Year at our house. Overjoyed Jun and Firefly. However, from New Year's Eve to New Year's holidays, problems arose one after another around Jun and his friends. First, Shokichi (Yoshihito Nakazawa), the son of Midori Kasamatsu (Michiko Hayashi), left home. I can't leave my friends Jun and Kaede alone. Masakichi finally found spends the New Year at Jun's house. Around that time, an old man named Matsukichi Sawada (Chishu Ryu) appeared in hamlet for the first time in 30 years. A long time ago, he was one of the pioneers who pioneered this foothills, and although he succeeded once, he hasn't heard of him since he abandoned his wife and children and ran off with a woman. At the foot of the town, there is only a granddaughter Taeko (Jun Fubuki) who works at a ramen shop in the city. She said she was a huge success in Tokyo, but something is wrong. Suddenly, Goro has a difficult problem. As a guarantor of green debt, he was obliged to repay 7 million yen ... Can salvation be offered to the Kuroita family? Matsukichi graybeard (Chishu Ryu) is a legendary person who was called the Minister of Beans during the pioneering era. He hears about Goro's debt and says, “Sell a pile of eagles,” but in reality he has no pile or property.  Matsukichi had dementia.

Compared to the large varieties, the leaves are small but strong and compact, and the late vegetation declines slowly. However, it is a rich variety that can be harvested for a long time and can harvest around 10 fruits per plant. I hear that female flowers grow every 3 to 4 nodes and can be harvested 35 to 40 days after flowering and fruiting. Keep the fruits in a cool place and in cold conditions. Drys the fruit surface and promotes shelf life. Due to the dryness of the fruit stalk, it suppresses post-shipment rot and improves shelf life. Prevents Bacillus anthracis(A disease caused by filamentous fungi (mold) that produces gray-brown to black lesions and salmon-pink spore masses on stems and branches. Leefs and fruits develop round to irregular, grayish-white to brown lesions. Blackish brown, slightly concave, spindle-shaped lesions are formed on the stems and branches. When the humidity is high, black grains can be seen in the central part of the lesion, and salmon pink mucilage (spore mass) also adheres.)disease caused by invasion from a wound. The skin is dark green and the flesh is bright orange. In this way, mini squash grow relatively well even on thin land, are resistant to diseases, and do not require much effort. The weight of one piece is not so much, but it is the weight because of love. JA Furano was established in February 2001 by combining the six agricultural cooperatives of Kamifurano Town, Nakafurano Town, Minamifurano Town, and Shimukappu Village, centering on Furano City. With a planted area of ​​about 22,729 hectares at that time, it is one of the largest agricultural cooperatives in Hokkaido. Originally, Furano City was developed as a paddy field, but after the reduction policy, food that produces a wide variety of agricultural products, including livestock such as rice, paddy rice, wheat, etc., centering on fruits and vegetables such as onions and carrots, which account for the majority of total sales. It seems to be a base. Furano City is located in the center of the Furano Basin, which is long from north to south, surrounded by the Yubari Mountains with the Tokachidake mountain range and Ashibetsudake as the main peaks, almost in the center of Hokkaido. No one knows that it was the setting for the 1980 drama “Kita no Kunikara(“From the north country” is a TV drama produced by Fuji TV and set in Furano in Hokkaido.)”, and that it is also famous as a place visited by many tourists every year during the lavender season. The cumulative temperature from April to October during the farming season is around 2,700 degrees Celsius, the annual rainfall is around 1,100 mm, and the average temperature from July to August is over 20 degrees Celsius, making it an agricultural town blessed with agricultural weather conditions. In addition, efforts for farming cooperation using compost are being seen all over the country with the aim of sustainable agriculture through resource recycling. In addition, in response to the recent rise in international prices of feed raw materials, it seems that there is an urgent need to improve the feed self-sufficiency rate from the perspective of stabilizing livestock management. JA Furano, located in Hokkaido, is working to establish a farming cooperation system that connects the two to solve the problems of establishing a crop rotation system to improve the productivity of cultivated farmers in the jurisdiction and securing self-sufficient feed for dairy farmers. It seems that it is. The opportunity for JA Furano to work on establishing a farming cooperation system was the farming cooperation measure demonstration project that started independently in 2007. The aim is to solve each of the issues of establishing a crop rotation system for improving the productivity of cultivated farmers, mainly onions, and securing self-sufficient feed by increasing the production of feed corn (dent corn: Also called dent corn, the sides of the grain consist of a hard starch layer and the crown consists of a soft starch layer. As the grain matures, the soft part contracts to form a dent in the crown, which looks like a horse tooth. Dent corn is mainly used for starch (corn starch) production, feed, and in recent years as a raw material for bioethanol production.) for dairy farmers. Onions are widely known as the core crop of Furano, which has been actively cultivated as a crop for paddy fields since around 1970. It is a crop that requires capital investment such as a refrigeration storage facility in addition to planting machines and harvesters, but since the beginning of cultivation in Furano, we have been trying to establish production technology with onions as the main crop and continue to make capital investment. rice field. As a result, the number of onion farmers in the jurisdiction was 430 (at that time: the average planted area was 5 to 7 hectares; 50000 m2 to 70000 m2 / unit), and the onion kingdom Hokkaido, which accounts for 60% of the national shipment, is the second largest yield after JA Kitamirai. It is said that it is a large production area that boasts. It is a crop that is relatively strong against continuous cropping and many farmers continue to grow in the same field for decades. Onion farmers in the jurisdiction are no exception, and onion cropping is generally single crop or incorporating other crops such as melons and spinach. It is said that there are cases where only onions have been produced continuously for nearly 40 years since the cultivation began around 1970. As expected, recently (2007 to 2008), the yield has been decreasing due to continuous cropping disorders such as the outbreak of pests and diseases and the increase of soil bacteria in the onion fields of single-cropping farmers, which seems to have bothered onion farmers. Normally, it is desirable to suspend the production of onions by incorporating sunflowers and oats in the form of fallow green manure or to introduce crops other than onions about once every four years. However, there are no crops that can secure high profits comparable to onions, and in order to incorporate new crops into the crop rotation system, capital investment such as seed machines and harvesters is required, so the yield will decrease. It seems that the situation of continuing to make onions was unavoidable inside. On the other hand, the dairy farming that was introduced in the jurisdiction as a supplement to upland farming and rice farming from that time seems to have progressed from a field dairy farmer to a large-scale dairy farm. Moreover, dairy farmers in the jurisdiction generally grow grass and dent corn themselves for feed, and purchase raw materials such as grains to make up for the shortfall in the form of self-mixing, but imported feed raw materials from 2006. It seems that the rise in production costs due to soaring prices put pressure on management, and securing and increasing production of self-sufficient feed became an urgent issue. However, the production of dent corn in parallel with dairy farming has a heavy workload, and in Furano City, where the price of agricultural land is high, it seems that even if one wanted to increase the acreage, it could not be increased. Among the onion farmers in the jurisdiction where there is plenty of farmland, those who pay attention to the good compatibility and voluntarily make efforts to plant dent corn and sell it to neighboring dairy farmers several years before the demonstration project starts. Seems to have existed. A survey of onion yields by the Furano Branch of the Kamikawa Agricultural Improvement and Extension Center also revealed that dent corn was the most suitable crop to be incorporated into the crop rotation system. In order to investigate the effect of green manure crops on onion yield, the extension center planted onions on the site of each test plot in the continuous cropping plot, white karashi plot, oat plot, sunflower plot, and dent corn plot, and verified the yield. However, it seems that the dent corn plot had a high standard yield and standard ball count rate. In addition, since dent corn has a large amount of dry matter per unit area, it has a high soil improvement effect, and unlike other fallow green manure, it can be sold to dairy farmers for cash crops. In addition, since the dairy farmers who grow the plants own seed machines and harvesters, it seems that there was an advantage that the cultivated farmers did not need to make new machinery investment. Agricultural cooperative officials in the jurisdiction have launched a demonstration project to support cultivated farmers and dairy farmers at the suggestion of the Ministry of Agriculture at that time to expand the circle of farming cooperation that had already started from the territorial connection. In response to the efforts of dairy farmers to supply compost to dairy farmers instead of cultivating dent corn for sale to dairy farmers, JA mainly cultivates onions, and JA provides dent corn seeds to both dairy and dairy farmers. It seems that the amount equivalent to the cost (5,000 yen / 10 ares) and the amount equivalent to the compost to be supplied (5,000 yen / 10 ares) will be subsidized. The demonstration project is said to start every year from the end of November of the previous year. JA summarizes the feed dent corn cultivation wishes of cultivated farmers and presents the cultivation conditions to JA Furano Dairy Subcommittee. Upon receiving the presentation, the Dairy Subcommittee summarizes the dairy farmers' wishes to purchase dent corn for feed and presents the purchase conditions to JA. After that, JA and the Dairy Subcommittee will connect individual dairy farmers and cultivated farmers, taking into consideration the distance and cultivation conditions, and the dent corn sales contract will be. After concluding the contract, the onion farmer will cultivate and level the land in his field, seed the dent corn of the variety specified by the dairy farmer, and share the work up to weeding. On the other hand, dairy workers are said to share the supply of compost (5 tons per 10 ares, including transportation) as well as the harvesting and preparation of dent corn. As for the dent corn price from the dairy farmer to the cultivated farmer, JA collected 6.3 yen (tax included) per kilogram from the dairy farmer at the request of the cultivated farmer around the beginning of November when the harvest was finished, and the assembling fee (dent corn price), 3%) is deducted and paid to the cultivated farmer. However, if it is difficult to grasp the yield, the area will be paid based on the yield survey based on mutual agreement. In addition, JA will pay 5,000 yen per 10 ares for onion farmers (equivalent to dent corn seeds) and 5,000 yen per 10 ares for dairy farmers (equivalent to 5 tons of compost) after confirming the settlement of the dent corn price and the supply of compost. It seems that it was a mechanism to subsidize the amount). In recent years, the Furano area has been hit by moisture damage and drought, and the difference between fields where compost is continuously applied and fields where it is not applied has become extremely different. It is said that the price has increased since before 2008 when the price soared. Many farmers are eager to continue the new farming cooperation efforts of purchasing dent corn and supplying compost even after the end of the demonstration project in 2009. It will be two years after the participation of the project that the cultivating farmers who participated in the project and cultivated dent corn can confirm the effect of the project when they return to the cultivation of onions. Therefore, although the measurement of business effects is still in the future, efforts to solve each problem of establishing a crop rotation system for cultivated farmers and securing self-sufficient feed for dairy farmers seems to be steadily infiltrating the region. In addition to this demonstration project, JA Furano is working to improve soil fertility using compost, such as having its own organic matter supply center that also handles vegetable residue processing and soil preparation. 
Agriculture in Furano City began in 1899 when Mr. Sadatsugu Kurigami (1848-1919) in the Ogiyama district(The origin seems to have been established around 1919 by Mr. Tamaki Koizumi (Principal of Ogiyama Elementary School), who named it from the shape of the mountain at the shrine. From Furano city area, take Route 38 toward Obihiro for about 2.6 km, then enter the side road and go straight for about 650 m. The Ogiyama reclamation monument is also scattered nearby. )made a prototype of “Ishikari Akage” seedlings. Although it became a key industry, the rice market became unstable from around 1967, and uniform production adjustments were implemented nationwide from 1970, promoting crop conversion in the city, and now it is a major vegetable producing area such as onions, watermelons, and melons. It seems that he has established his position. In recent years, the future of agriculture in the city has been affected by the slump in agricultural product prices due to the liberalization of imports of agricultural and livestock products, which is symbolized by the TPP problem, the shortage of farmers due to the declining birthrate and aging population, and the decline in rural functions due to the declining population. Seems to be extremely worried. In particular, I hear that the shortage of farmers is the biggest crisis factor for the survival of the city's agriculture and rural areas, and that it was positioned as a priority issue in the second Furano City Agriculture and Rural Basic Plan formulated in March 2014. It seems that they have been working on measures for farmers, but in order to implement effective measures for this priority issue in the future, related organizations and organizations will newly own them in cooperation with the local community. It is necessary to establish a system for gathering know-how. For this reason, the Furano City Agricultural Leaders Training Organization was established to centrally support the employment of new entrants and former farmers, and to secure and train agricultural workers. It seems that they are trying to secure human resources who will contribute to the formation of agriculture. Partial excerpt from the website of Furano City Agricultural Leaders Training Organization (Yamabe: The history of pioneering begins with the investigation of geology and topography by Sapporo Agricultural College (now Hokkaido University) in 1897, and a development plan was made in 1899. It seems to start when recruiting people. The railroad opened from Furano to Furano in 1900, but the section between Takikawa and Furano has not been opened, so it seems that migrants had to go through Asahikawa. The first settlers in the recruitment year were the three households, Mr. Chokichi Hashimoto, Mr. Hideyoshi Kawahara, and Mr. Tomokichi Nobori, who dropped the hoe on the 22nd line, which was the beginning of the Yamabe reclamation. After four years, 50 households have finally lived, and in 1908, the number of settlers increased to 406, and the loan was almost completed. It is said that a memorial monument was erected. As a research farm under the direct control of the Faculty of Agriculture, which is a school field at Hokkaido University, various tests and experiments are conducted. It is said that it was an extraordinary difficulty to cultivate a spirit of autonomy and create a beautiful style of mutual encouragement and mutual assistance because it is a group of diverse people with different languages ​​and customs. Surrounded by mountains on three sides, it opens only to the north and connects to the Furano Basin. In other words, it creates a narrow valley between the heavy snow and Tokachi mountains, which can be said to be the backbone of Hokkaido, and the Yubari mountains. The Sorachi River, which runs north-south in the eastern part of the region, and its tributaries, such as the Yamabe River, the 25th Line River, the Autumn Leaves River, the Yufure River, and the Juhachisen River, originate from Mt. The basins of these Morokawa rivers, which run on a 4 km flat land and flow into the Sorachi River, form an alluvial fan due to the accumulation of earth and sand, and it seems that they are cultivated land of less than 2,000 ha tilted to the east. The mountainous area is steep and is occupied by national and public forests, but the forest area seems to be about 7,600 ha. The mountains that occupy the eastern part are mountains at an altitude of 500 m and outside, and belong to the jurisdiction of the University of Tokyo Hokkaido Experimental Forest. Was being done. The Yubari Mountains are lined up in the western part, and the main peak Ashibetsu (1,726.1 m) rises like a folding screen, and you can see Mt. Hachimori (1,453 m) and Mt. , Ochachadake (1,331 m) and then to Furano Nishidake (1,330.9 m) via Gokurakudaira. Yamabe Village was separated from Shimofurano on April 1, 1915, and the government office was set up in the precincts of the current Sokouji Temple in the south of Nijo-dori, Yamabe City. In November of the same year, the government building, which had been under construction for some time, was completed, so the Kocho government office was relocated. After that, Higashiyama Village was separated from Yamabe Village in 1940. The decision of the branch village was completed in 1934, but it was approved by the Secretary of the Prefectural Government in 1940. On January 1, 1965, Yamabe Village enforced the town system and became Yamabe Town. After that, it merged with Furano City on May 1, 1966. According to “Origin of Hokkaido Station Name” (published in 1929), the origin of the place name seems to be (Ainu language) “Yam Pe” (cold water). It seems that it is written.): Furano Town wetland rice Birthplace(Minami Ogiyama Higashi): It was erected in August 1952 as part of the 50th anniversary of the opening of Furano Town in order to pass on the achievements to posterity. In 1894, he traveled with his family and moved to Ebeotsu Village, Sorachi District. After that, he found the need for paddy field development, borrowed rice seedlings from the prefectural government, and started development, and he made a great contribution to the paddy field development of Ebeotsu. In 1898, he moved to Furano on the recommendation of Mr. Chikara Nakamura. He cultivates about 148.7 m2 as a peasant on the Kamidai farm. He receives some of the land transfer and he becomes a pioneer of homegrown farming. In 1899, in order to try to grow wetland rice, he ordered red-haired rice seedlings from Mr. Kumezo Kurigami, who was in the colonization battalion of Ebeotsu, and made a prototype of 5495.8 m2 behind the house, and it seems that he got a harvest of about 108.2 liters. From 1900, it took four years to formulate a rice-building plan, but it was difficult to guide water, so a plan to draw water from the upper reaches of the Kitafurebetsu River was made and construction was started. I heard that he was responsible for the construction with 5.6 people from the whole family. It was completed several tens of days later, and it seems that the water was able to flow to the destination. This is also the first irrigation canal in Ogiyama and is said to be the current fourth trunk line. In 1928, a celebration was held to commemorate the breakthrough of 1.000.000 Koku of rice produced in Kamikawa. Nine new varieties and excellent varieties were selected, and six excellent agricultural tool creators were commended, and Mr. Sadatsugu (Sadaji) was among them. “Furano City”, The city is located in the southern part of the Kamikawa jurisdiction. It is 32.8km east-west and 27.3 km north-south, almost in the center of Hokkaido, and is famous as the central city of the Furano basin. The total area is confirmed to be 600.71 km2 (As of October 1, 2016). Furano maunt in the Tokachidake mountain range to the east and Ashibetsu maunt in the Yubari mountains to the west. There is the Tokyo University Experimental Forest in the south, and under the natural conditions that forests occupy about 70% of the city area. The climate is typical of continental nature due to the terrain surrounded by the Mt. Taisetsuzan system and the Yubari mountain range in the inland area of ​​Hokkaido. The daily and annual range of temperature is large, and there is a tendency of torrential rain in the summer season, and the snowfall period is from mid-November to early april. The depth of snow is said to reach 1m inside and outside, and 2-3 m in the mountains. The city was cultivated in 1896 when the Furano Wilderness Colonial District was set up. The following year, in 1897, Mr. Chikara Nakamura and others from Fukuoka Prefecture settled in the current Ogiyama district. Utashinai Village Outer Ichika Village Kocho Office was set up. In May 1899, the Furano Village Kocho Office was established in what is now Kamifurano Town. Notification of the Hokkido Agency on July 8, 1903: The Shimofurano Village is located in the south of the Sorachi District Furano Village in Ishikari. September 1 Shimofurano Village Kocho government office opens in what is now Furano City(Furano Village was renamed Kamifurano Village.). Sorachi District yamabe village is a branch village in 1915 april. The town system was enforced in april in 1919 and became furano town. Higashiyama Village was separated from Yamabe Village in April 1940. In September 1956 Application of the Municipal Merger Promotion Law. Merged with Yamabe Town in May 1966 (the town system came into effect in January 1965). Furano City was born as the 29th city in Hokkaido. Agriculture, which is a key industry, is responsible for the industrial structure of the city due to changes in the environment surrounding Agriculture and the aging of the bearers. However, the number of workers in the primary industry has been declining significantly. However, the proportion of workers in the tertiary industry, mainly tourism-related, is on the rise.It seems that changes can be seen even on an industrial production value basis. Furano boasts a national name recognition in Japan. Of course, even people who have never been there should have heard of it. Two historic sites were designated as cultural properties of the city on December 22, 2003 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the opening of Furano City. 北大第八農場富良野成墾記念碑(嘉禾是豊成墾紀念碑), 北大第八農場山部成墾記念碑: Designated as a cultural property of the city with two historic sites. Furano Lion Dance (Designated on February 19, 1969): Etchu Lion Dance,It started in 1902, and after a while, it was revived by volunteers of students in 1969. Hokkaido Central Latitude Observatory (Designated on July 13, 1971): Measurement of earth gravity and latitude and longitude. Dr. Shinzou Shinjyo and others. A rectangular concrete pedestal with a length of 95 cm and a width of 65 cm was erected in the schoolyard of Furano Elementary School. By the way, the city is north latitude 43 degrees 09 minutes 24 seconds ~ 43 degrees 24 minutes 05 seconds, east longitude 142 degrees 16 minutes 17 seconds ~ 142 degrees 40 minutes 40 seconds. It seems that the Hokki Belly Button Festival is being held grandly(July 28 and 29 every year.). City flower: Rhododendron dauricum L. City tree: Magnolia obovata. City bird: Dryocopus martius (Linnaeus, 1758). City animal: Sciurus vulgaris orientis. Furano area: The Furano basin, which is surrounded by mountains, is characterized by an inland climate, with large daily and year-round temperature differences, which can exceed -30 ° C in winter and the opposite in summer. It can exceed 30 degrees for several days. The average temperature from July to August is over 20 degrees Celsius, making it an ideal land for agriculture. Also, in a snowy area, it is said that the fields will start to be cultivated around mid-April in spring. The foot of Mt. Tokachi in the east is a gentle hill that continues from Biei and is suitable for upland farming. I've heard that the crops are unique. “Kamifurano Town” is located in the northern part of the Furano Basin, with Tokachidake in the Daisetsu Mountains in the east and the tip of the Yubari Mountains in the west. , It is said that it is a diversion ridge between Kamikawa and Sorachi District. I hear that the hills that surround the city in a horseshoe shape are fields and larch plantations, and that Mita spreads out on a flat land that opens to the Furano Great Plains toward the south. Lavender, which is a town flower, is said to be an important tourist plant that colors the summer in Kamifurano. “Nakafurano Town” is located in the Furano Basin in the central part of Hokkaido, and is a town blessed with scenery, with the ridges of the Tokachidake mountain range in the east and the symbol of the town, Hokuseizan, in the west. It seems that it is possible to produce many kinds of agricultural products such as rice and wheat, as well as garden crops such as melon and watermelon, and field crops such as horse bells, onions, and carrots. Lavender, which is also a town flower, seems to have been cultivated as much as 130 hectares; 1300000 m2 from around 1948 to its peak. Cultivation has gradually decreased due to the artificial fragrance, but it has been continuously produced by people who love lavender such as Farm Tomita. In the 1975s, it seems that the lovely shade and scent of purple came into the limelight again. Nowadays, it is popular with the townspeople as a town flower, and every household has a sweet scent in the garden in July. “Minamifurano Town” is located in the south of the Furano Basin, and the average area of ​​cultivated land per household is 26 ha, which is mainly for large-scale agriculture under the weather conditions where the temperature difference is large. In addition, 90% of the total area of ​​666 km2 in Minamifurano Town is forest, and agricultural land seems to be only 4% of the total. Agricultural land spans five villages, Kanayama, Shimo-Kanayama, Ikutora, Kitaochiai, and Ochiai, and is said to be farming based on paddy rice, upland farming, and vegetables. Among them, I hear that horse bells and carrots, which take advantage of the cold weather, are one of the best producing areas in Hokkaido. In August 2016, the typhoon heavy rain disaster caused great damage to JA Furano's jurisdiction due to record heavy rain. In particular, the Ikutora district of Minamifurano Town, where the Sorachi River broke, suffered unprecedented damage such as the runoff of agricultural land and the flooding of houses and warehouses. I think you all remember it vividly, too? “Shimukappu Village” is located at the southernmost tip of the Kamikawa jurisdiction, and when you go south on Route 237 and get off at Kanayama Pass, the villages are scattered there. 94% of the total area is forests, and the weather is typical inland weather. In winter, the temperature can drop below -30 ° C and there is a lot of snowfall. It seems that it has changed. Japanese Wagyu Beef(This category focuses on cattle breeds, and includes only four breeds, such as the Japanese Black breed, which have been bred over a long period of time in Japan, and their hybrids. Other than that, it seems that it cannot be displayed as “Wagyu Beef”. The Japanese Black breed was improved by crossing with a foreign species in the Meiji era, and was certified as a beef cattle unique to Japan in 1944. Currently, more than 90% of Japanese beef raised all over Japan and fattened in Japan.)is shipped nationwide as fattening cows. With the mountain resort “Alpha Resort Tomamu”, which is rare in Japan, the Doto Expressway interchange is scheduled to open in 2007, and it is said to be a key point of transportation. I would like to introduce the special products I posted on another site the other day. “KURI YUTAKA” : A large-sized variety with stable fruit set and high yield of strong powder, black-skinned chestnut seeds mainstream in the Japanese market. The fruits are large balls weighing about 1.8 to 2.0 kg, and the balls are particularly well aligned. It is a little dark green and has a high waist and a round shape. The meat is very mixed and has a strong sweetness, which is popular with children. The grass is a little strong and the vines tend to be a little big. The petioles are strong, the leaves are less likely to break and fall, and they are strong against the wind. In addition, the incidence of powdery mildew(Filamentous fungi)is low. Female flower epiphytes are about the same as conventional varieties. Fruit set is very good and the yield tends to be high.Wide range of cropping, greenhouse, tunnel, open field cultivation: Also suitable for seasonal extension, multi-faceted. Pumpkin vines can grow up to 15 cm a day, so attract them early. When the vines grow 15 to 20 cm, leave two good vines. (In the case of double tailoring) Remove the side branches up to the fruit setting position early to enrich the ovary of female flowers. Be sure to leave the male flowers at the root of the plant, and remove the side branches of the fruit-bearing node as they can cause vine wounds. Regarding the fruit-bearing node position, the fruit is usually set in the 12th to 13th sections, but it is ideal for Kuriyutaka to set the fruit in the 10th to 12th sections. (70 cm from the vine). Mating should be done early in the morning. Honey Bee mating is recommended for labor saving (in cloudy weather, bees do not fly, so artificial mating is required). Be careful when using pesticides to avoid killing visiting insects. The harvest days for chestnuts are generally around 50 days after mating. If the fruit is unripe, the powderiness will decrease, leading to a decrease in storability and taste. “See from Mikado Kyowa Co., Ltd”. Yes!

From the flower burial(Beyond the Blossoming Fields Author:Mr. Junichi WATANABE)published by Shinchosha in July 1975, there was a woman who aspired to a distant and fragile medical path in the early Meiji era, when her academic-loving daughter had a strong tendency to be a shame of her family. Ms. Ginko OGINO, Japan's first female doctor. Unable to endure the humiliation of her husband's illness being diagnosed by the opposite sex, she overcame various prejudices and obstacles to qualify as a doctor and social movement to save a woman suffering from the same suffering. Also participated in. Covered with blood and sweat, it was a feature film that brilliantly pursued the life of the turbulent life that was desperately alive, and received a lot of feedback from readers. However, it was her intention to marry the pastor Mr. Yukiyoshi SIKATA and follow her to Hokkaido, so at least it wasn't unfortunate. Even so, I can get a glimpse of the strength of her will. Immanuel Church is a small church built on the land where the couple and Christians tried to build a utopia after 1891. In the forest of Immanuel hill, which means “being with God” in Hebrew, it is said that it conveys the breath of history with a monument. Ms. Ginko was born in Tawarase, Kumagaya City in 1851 at the end of the Edo period. She got married at the age of 18, but she got an unexpected illness and divorced in about two years. She was keenly aware of the need for a female doctor because she had been treated for gynecology at this time, and decided to become her doctor. However, at that time, women were not allowed to take the medical practice examination, and they struggled to revise the system. At that time, “Ryo no Gige; Official Annotation of the Yoro Ordinance. Volume 10, Volume 30. Based on the proposal of Dr. Myobo-Nukada no Imanari-Ko in 826. From 829, 12 people including Minister of the Right Kiyohara no Natsuno-Ko were compiled by the order of Emperor Junna, completed in 833, and the following year, the official authority of the Yoro Code. It was enforced as an interpretation and had regulatory power equivalent to the text of the decree.” It is like Saitama's great man Mr. Hokiichi HANAWA who edited this and passed it on to future generations.

Setana Town is located in the southwestern part of Hokkaido, in the northern part of the Hiyama Promotion Bureau, facing the Sea of ​​Japan. Shimamaki Village is to the north of Setana Town, Imakane Town is to the east, Yakumo Town is to the south, and Okushiri Island is across the Sea of ​​Japan to the west. The terrain is mountainous in the north and south, with the first-class river Shiribeshi River flowing between them, and in the north there are 1,000 m-class mountains such as Mt. Kariba (1,520 m), the highest peak in southern Hokkaido, and in the south. Yurappu peak (1,277 m: Kenichi Peak: Altitude 1,277m-Hokkaido: Oshima Peninsula --Yamakei Online / Mountains and Kayasha In the central part of the Oshima Peninsula, Kitahiyama-cho (currently Setana-cho, Kudo-gun) and Kumaishi-cho (currently Yakumo-cho, Futami-gun) ) Boundary, it is a mountain of granite.) and Shiromizu Peak (1,136 m: It is a mountain that extends to the south of Mt. Yurappu, and is the main peak of the Shiramizu mountain range in the “Donan Alps” where the mountain trail was excavated by Kumaishiyama Lecture.) are connected. From Mt. Kariba in the north to the coast, it is designated as Karibamottadori Natural Park, and part of the coastline in the south is designated as Hiyama Prefectural Natural Park. The total area of ​​the town seems to be about 638.69 km2. The etymology is the Ainu word “Setarushuppenai (dog river)” is abbreviated to “Setanai (dog valley)”, and it is said that it was converted to “Setana”.

The Imakane Imakane Agricultural Cooperative in Hokkaido unified the potatoes planted in the town into “Baron Potato” in 1953, and began shipping under the name “Imakane Danshaku” in 1955. After that, he said that he worked on brand building such as increasing the starch content of the same variety to be shipped (hereinafter referred to as “Lyman value”) to 13.5% or more. As a result of these efforts, Imakane Oshaku was registered in the Geographical Indication (GI) Protection System (Note 1) by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries in September of the first year of Reiwa. I hear that JA Imakane Town is taking this opportunity to expand its sales strategy by focusing on the development and export of processed products with the aim of further strengthening the brand. The Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries has formulated the “Intellectual Property Strategy” since 2007, and is strategically promoting intellectual property-related measures for agriculture, forestry and fishery products and foods. In the “Intellectual Property Strategy 2020”, In order to increase the added value of Japan's agriculture, forestry and fishery products and foods, and to promote the sixth industrialization in rural areas and regional revitalization through international competitiveness, new varieties of plants, The result of technological development, design, naming (trademark), on-site technology and know-how, regional brand and food culture, etc. It is necessary to protect these from counterfeit and pirated products as well as to protect them. The history of the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries began with the establishment of the “Ministry of Agriculture and Commerce” in 1881. This is the fifth oldest ministry that still exists, after the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Finance (currently the Ministry of Finance), the Ministry of Justice (currently the Ministry of Justice), and the Ministry of Education (currently the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology) for more than 130 years. It is a ministry with a history of. At the time of its establishment, in addition to agriculture, forestry and fisheries, commerce and industry were included as jurisdiction fields, but in 1925 the commerce and industry field was separated into the newly established “Ministry of Commerce and Industry (currently Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry)”. The name was changed to “Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry”. In 1943, when the momentum of the war increased, it seems that the Ministry of Agriculture and Commerce became the “Ministry of Agriculture and Commerce” by integrating the fields under the jurisdiction of the “Ministry of Commerce and Industry” other than the munitions industry. Furthermore, in August 1945 after the end of the war, the name was changed to “Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry” again, and in 1978 it became the current name “Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries”. The current Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries is composed of the “Main Ministry” consisting of the Minister's Secretariat, 5 Bureaus, the Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Technology Council, and the Local Branch Offices, and the “External Agency” consisting of the Forestry Agency and Fisheries Agency. I would like to describe what I was able to confirm as the basic philosophy of the Food Safety and Consumer Affairs Bureau. Food is the source of support for life and is the basis of national life that is indispensable for even one day. Based on the idea that it is most important to protect the health of the people by valuing the consumer's point of view, we will ensure the safety and stable supply of food and give consumers a sense of trust in food. Implement such a policy. The dining table is made up of various food imports from all over the world, in addition to domestically produced agriculture, forestry and fishery products. Measures to improve food safety and prevent diseases and pests on livestock and crops are closely related to international trade. Implement these measures based on scientific grounds, in line with international standards, and in accordance with the concept of risk analysis. In order for the people to have a safe diet, in addition to supplying safe food, it is necessary to provide information on food, including safety, so that consumers can gain the trust of food. Provide accurate information and exchange opinions in the process of creating measures to improve food safety. For individual foods, we will promote easy-to-understand labeling so that consumers can select foods based on accurate information. In addition, we will promote dietary education that cultivates the ability to think and make decisions about food by oneself so that each and every citizen can lead a healthy diet throughout their lives. Well, let's get back to the story. Imakane Town, located in the northwestern part of the Oshima Peninsula in Hokkaido, is within the jurisdiction of about 180 km from Sapporo City. Along the Shiribeshi River, one of the clearest streams in Japan, there is a well-drained fertile agricultural land formed by volcanic eruptions such as Mt. Usu. The position of potato production in Imakane Town in Hokkaido is less than 1% in terms of planted area, production volume, and shipment volume, and it can be said that it is rare in terms of quantity. The production volume since 2014 has increased by more than 45% compared to more than 50 years ago, and has been changing from 8,000 tons to 12,000 tons. In addition, the amount of food shipped is also changing synergistically. Production in 2020 was 8820 tons, down 16.3% from the previous year, and shipments were 6972 tons, down 22.8% from the previous year. Why? That is, the cultivated area and production volume depend on the weather factors of the year. In particular, according to agricultural cooperative officials, the production volume will increase or decrease on the scale of 1000 tons depending on the weather. In addition, the future cropping prospects are based on future price trends that have been sold after GI registration. I want to go back further. Production began around 1891, but I hear that potatoes with white skin have been highly evaluated in the market since that time. In 1967, a system was established in which seed potato producers and edible potato producers were distinguished, and producers who had acquired the skills and knowledge necessary for seed potato production were cultivated specially in seed potatoes. Implementation of cavity inspection. In 1995, the Lyman value (starch value; (%) = 214.5 ✕ (specific gravity -1.050) + 7.5, specific gravity = (air weight) / (air weight-water weight)) will be shipped at 13.5% or more. , Worked on further quality improvement. In addition, before shipping, producers always store in the air for about a week, and even after shipping to JA Imakane Town, store in the air for at least 5 days to prevent peeling and scratches, and harvest. We are also trying to maintain the quality later. Even after shipping, I frequently visited the markets and retail stores where the products were shipped. In addition to directly confirming the quality of “potatoes, which are characterized by their natural melting and crunchiness,” we also put effort into certifying the production area, such as putting a golden seal in a box as proof that we cleared the shipping standards, not only at the production site. We are also working to maintain and improve quality in the market, and have earned high trust not only from market participants but also from consumers. When the popular “Baron” was selected as an excellent variety in Hokkaido, the potatoes cultivated from 1953 were unified to “Baron Potato” only. In 1955, the introduction of joint sorting work made it possible to ship products of uniform quality, so we started shipping to the market under the name of “Imakane Danshaku Potato”, and since then, we have made various efforts to improve quality throughout the production area. Continue. In the first year of specialized cultivation in 1967, the area was 245 ha (edible 75 ha, seed 170 ha) and the production was 5,500 tons. In 2017 (Heisei 29), the area is 375 ha (edible 307 ha, seeds 68 ha), and the production is expanding to about 12,000 tons. Although the production volume is small compared to other production areas in Hokkaido, it has established itself as a brand production area in the Kanto and Tokai markets, which are the main shipping destinations, due to its high quality and rarity. It is also registered as a trademark. Imakane Otoko Shaku, Designated Goods or Designated Services, Class 31, Imakane Town, Setana District, Hokkaido and the surrounding area, Danshaku Potato, Trademark Registration, Registration Number, No. 6031227. Geographical Indication Protection System: G1, Registration Number, No. 86, Registration Date, September 9, 2019, Registration Application Number, No. 177, Registration Application Date, May 14, 2019 , Name of registered producer group, Imakane Agricultural Cooperative. “Kita Kamui” (Potatoes crossed between “Yellow Shark”, which was selected and raised in 1982, and “Toya”, which was selected as a recommended variety in 1992.) By the way, my mother was It's a variety that has been selected and bred with the aim of producing a variety that is easy to make and has been registered in July 1992. It does not discolor when peeled or cut, and does not need to be soaked in water. The seeds of Sakata are selected and grown from seeds introduced from the Pan American Seed Company in 1982. It's Presumed that the gene of “Rasit Burbank” is contained. It is a variety that has been carefully cultivated from the tests that were tested in the Seedling individual selection in 10 years. Since 2004, it has been tested under the strain name of “HP01” in the selection test of imported varieties of horse bells in Hokkaido, and the practicality as a variety has been examined (It has the resistance gene H1 and is highly). resistant, and its scab resistance is weak. Resistance in the plague field and Y mosaic disease resistance(Potato virus Y (PVY))are weak. Tuber rot resistance is also slightly weak.), 2007, it is said that it was certified as an excellent variety in Hokkaido. It has a plateau climate at the foot of Mt. Compared with the control variety “Baron Potato”, the spread of anthocyanin coloring on the inner surface of the corolla is absent or minimal, and the depth of the tubers is Distinguishing is recognized because it is a little shallow. Compared with the control variety “Toya”, the distinction is recognized by the fact that the skin color of the tubers is light beige and the flesh color of the tubers is white. The shape of the buds is spherical, and the degree of anthocyanin coloring at the base of the buds is medium. The application for registration was made in 2008), and the variety was registered in 2010. Starch is easily saccharified by storage, has a surprising sweetness, and tends to be hard to boil. Generally, baron varieties have the advantage of powdery, chewy texture that Japanese people like. Among them, Imakane Baron Potato has a Lyman value of 13.5% or more, which is 10% of the average value of other baron varieties. High degree. Therefore, the chewy texture is excellent. In addition, it melts naturally and has a nice texture, and the skin is white and the color is beautiful. There is little variation in quality, and the shape and appearance are good, so the yield when peeling is high. Due to its high quality, it has been evaluated as top-class in both quality and taste by people involved in the fruit and vegetable market, and the fact is that it is traded at a price that is more than 20% higher than the baron varieties of other production areas in the market. We also smile. In addition, according to agricultural cooperative officials, the baron varieties have drawbacks such as “vulnerable to diseases”, “low yield”, and “time to sort” compared to other potato varieties, which puts a burden on producers. I heard that. As of June 2020, 62 households belong to the household, and the average age is 52 years old. Of these, 20 producers are in their 20s to 40s. The subcommittee stated that it is important to “share information and not create people who are behind in technology in order to improve the quality of Imakane as a whole”, and it is related to quality improvement for the people involved in the subcommittee once a month. We hold meetings and annual study sessions for producers. So, does the good quality stand out? In addition, every year from June to July, sick and poorly grown strains are manually extracted one by one, and Lyman's value is measured on a regular basis. There are also groups such as the “Early attendant Potato Promotion Association (shipped from August to September)”, and they are also working individually. As a rule at the time of shipment, in order to prevent mixing with edible potatoes at the time of sorting, Imakane Otoko Shakumo is divided into seeds (seed producers and original seed producers) and edible growers as well as other potato cultivation. “Specialized cultivation” is carried out. Seed producers are required to manage cultivation more thoroughly than they can eat, and it is said that the same producers are trying to improve their skills as “professionals” every year, such as potato virus disease and strain confirmation. In addition, by purchasing the original seeds from the breeding and livestock management center of the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, raising the original seeds with the above-mentioned original seed producers, and using disease-free (virus-free) seed potatoes produced by the seed producers, the total amount will be updated every year. According to a survey by the Agriculture and Livestock Industries Corporation, the producers first sort the shape and size before shipping to the fruit sorting plant. In the case of raw food, nearly 40% is excluded at this stage. According to agricultural cooperative officials, JA Imakane Town is the only case in Japan where such strict selection is carried out at the producer stage. Next, in the sorting at the fruit sorting plant, dozens of skilled part-time staff manually exclude those that are slightly malformed or have scratches from the fruit sorting line (belt conveyor) in three stages. In addition, the precision camera distinguishes the shape and size on the line, and the infrared sensor confirms whether there is a cavity in the core of the potato and sorts it. Producers will inspect the soil in the fields where they will plant potatoes next year and inspect for potato cyst nematodes (hereinafter referred to as “neutral”). In addition, it is said that the entire producers' subcommittee will patrol each planted field before harvesting. Furthermore, regarding seed potatoes, virus strains are checked daily, and it seems that only seed potatoes that have passed the epidemic prevention inspection three times a year are used as seed potatoes. Before shipping, producers always store in the air for about a week (storage in a cool and dark place), and even after shipping to JA Imakane Town, store in the air for at least 5 days to prevent peeling and scratches. It seems that they are trying to maintain the quality after harvesting. In addition, after shipping, he frequently visits the market and supermarkets to directly check the quality of Imakane Baron Potato, and he is also focusing on certificate of origin, such as putting a certificate sticker that meets the shipping standards in a box. Although it is originally a fertile land, livestock and rice cultivation are also active, so as mentioned above, each producer is working to create more fertile soil through farming cooperation. It seems that the soil is inspected before the potatoes are harvested, the situation before fertilization is grasped, and the fertilizer composition suitable for the soil is considered and sprayed. In addition, after harvesting (around October), the soil is prepared by sowing green manure and plow in compost to prevent soil erosion and runoff. In addition, producers are obliged to rotate of crops such as wheat, soybeans, and sugar beets for four years, and it is said that they maintain an environment adapted to potatoes by preventing the growth and invasion of nematodes. It is clear that Imakane Baron Potato is based on the history built up by the former producers, and that feeling is still passed down to young producers. It is an abbreviation for Global Farmer / Fisherman / Forestry / Food Manufacturer Project. It was registered in 2021 for the export project of Japanese agriculture, forestry and fishery products promoted by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, and is actively working on collecting information on exports. First of all, it wants to increase exports to countries with many Japanese residents, such as Singapore, which has a record of exporting hundreds of kilograms. Producers involved in agriculture, fishing, forestry and food processing. Sellers such as trading companies and distributors. And the government. We will work together to export. The view that it was born for that reason. We will deliver the necessary and optimal information by communityizing enthusiastic producers nationwide and diagnosing them. He also wants to actually create successful export cases by supporting the formation of production areas and matching with vendors. Unlike domestic shipments, exports have various procedures, regulations, language hurdles, and unique commercial distribution, making it difficult for individual players to achieve continuous results. To overcome these challenges, we provide services that allow individual players to find business partners and bridge business negotiations. At the same time, the government, JETRO, etc. will work together to provide one-stop support for the efforts of these communities. It seems that JA Imakane Town's efforts to brand Imakane Baron Potato and sales strategies are going well, but Imakane, which will take more effort from producers due to the aging of producers, is a future issue for producers. Some say that it will be difficult to plant a male brand. In response to the issue, the RTK (Real Time Kinematic-GPS) base station was set up and started operation from April 2nd year of Reiwa with the full subsidy of Imakane Town. From 2021, it is said that a project to subsidize about 50% from the town for the introduction of agricultural work equipment to utilize the RTK(One of the measurement methods called “relative positioning”, It is a technology that receives signals from four or more satellites with two receivers, a fixed station and a mobile station, and it is more accurate than single positioning by exchanging information between the two receivers and correcting the deviation. I hear that it is possible to obtain location information. Although there are some errors, the biggest feature is that the range can be kept within just a few centimeters. It seems that it will be widely used mainly in fields where more accurate position information is required, such as agricultural machinery, construction machinery, and automatic navigation of drones.)base station will be implemented. I'm really looking forward to the news. It should be remembered that in March 2020, the United States requested Japan to lift the import ban on raw edible potatoes, and the value-added sales strategy is noteworthy for stakeholders and consumers, voice. I would like to continue to pay attention to trends such as future sales strategies of Imakane Baron Potato, the top brand of potatoes. In addition, while the Japanese government is actively promoting the expansion of exports of agricultural, forestry and fishery products, the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries and the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry have signed an Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA; In addition to trade liberalization, agreements aimed at strengthening a wide range of economic relations, including investment, movement of people, protection of intellectual property, rule-making in competition policy, and elements of cooperation in various fields.) with Japan in April 2021 to promote the export of GI products. Simplify export procedures to 14 countries / regions such as Thailand and Indonesia. Last but not least, since we are also focusing on the production of Japanese black beef in the jurisdiction, we will sell “Imakane Baron Potato Japanese Black Beef Curry” at the same time as the GI registration in September 2018. Sales were strong and 18,000 meals were produced at that time. From October 2020, it is said that it has started selling as a set with the packed rice “Imakane saturated rice” that was commercialized online in the same area where high quality rice is produced. Currently, he is also developing “Imakane Otoko Baron Potato Salad” in collaboration with famous chefs and potato salad researchers. Enjoy it once!


Blackening after cooking is less “fine” than “Baron tuber”. The taste is medium to top, which is comparable to that of “Baron tuber”, and the potato salad processing suitability is as good as that of “Sayaka Potato”.
