Mr. Inoue, Mr. Takanashi, Mr. Suda, etc. have been in power as national lords and formed a samurai corps. It seems that they were on the side of Uesugi in the Battle of Kawanakajima, some were on the side of Takeda, and some of them were divided into two groups. The battle also seems to have been a battle for their survival to protect their homes and territories. The sacrifices of the warlords who participated in the battle, both those who followed Takeda and those who followed Uesugi, were considerable. In the Hitaki district of Suzaka City, where Mr. Suda's castle, which controlled the advantage of the land, was located, there was a residence at the foot of the mountain, and there was a mountain castle called Oiwa Castle at the top of the mountain behind. Parent and child Suda, who escaped from Echigo, are on the side of the scenic spot in the battle over the traces of Kenshin, “Odate's Ran (a house turmoil that occurred between Kenshin's adopted children, Kagekatsu and Kagetora, over the successor of the family)”. However, he became a senior vassal of the Uesugi family. After the destruction of the Oda clan, Kita Shinano became the ruler of Uesugi, and Mitsuchika Suda became the “Kaizu castle lord” of Matsushiro in 1585 by the order of scenic beauty. It is a large delegation of authority such as police power and military command.

Since the opening of the Port of Ansei in the Days of the Tokugawa shogunate, the export volume of raw silk seems to have increased dramatically. In order to catch up with developed countries, the new Meiji government actively promoted the policy of national prosperity and defense / encouragement of new industry, introduced instrumental silk reeling technology from France and Italy, and in October 1872, the government-owned Tomioka silk reeling factory Opened. Instrumental silk reeling in the Suzaka region was started by Ginkuro Aoki Mansaku Endo, and in May 1875, Japan's first Tokosha (Silk reeling association: meaning to export raw silk from Yokohama to the United States via the Ozasa Highway) was launched in Suzaka Town. , It seems that we have collected less than 10 small silk reeling factories. In 1885, “Shunmeisha” was established, and the silk-reeling association seems to have become the mainstream of the silk-reeling industry in Nagano Prefecture. In 1889, the number of affiliated factories was 102, and the number of female workers increased to about 3,500. Suzaka developed as a major silk-reeling town. Also, in the middle of the Meiji era, the scale of individual companies expanded, and Jusaburo Koshi, who was later said to be the silk-reeling king (father of Japanese capitalism: decided to be a portrait of a 10,000-yen bill,) has a close relationship with Eiichi Shibusawa, who is drawing attention.) Formed the “Yamamaru Gumi; Group” centered on the silk-reeling factories of relatives, and also built silk-reeling factories outside the prefecture in Omiya City, Saitama Prefecture, Okazaki City, Aichi Prefecture, Shibata City, Niigata Prefecture, etc. It has grown into a company. Yamamaru Group has set up cocoon purchasing offices in 45 prefectures in Japan and uses telegraphs to contact the head office to purchase raw cocoons, and the telegraph code (encryption table) is still stored.

 【Major features】

JA Nagano is located in the northernmost part of Nagano Prefecture, including the capital city of Nagano. It is roughly divided into “Miyuki block”, “Shiga Kogen block”, “Nagano block”, “Suko block” and “Chikuma block”. In the jurisdiction, it is formed by the rich alluvial plain formed by the Chikuma and Sai rivers, which are the headwaters of the Shinano River, which is the largest river in Japan, and the highlands such as the Shiga Plateau and Tokakushi Plateau. It is also one of the most heavy snowfall areas in Japan, mainly in the north, and the snow that has fallen on the mountains is said to be clear meltwater and moisturize the village. In addition, the four seasons are clear and the temperature difference between day and night is large, and I hear that this characteristic is a major factor in adding sweetness to agricultural products and growing them deliciously. As for fruits such as apples, grapes, peaches and apricots, it is one of the best high-quality and stable supply areas in Japan. It is said that the basic conditions for abundant agricultural products are set by the fertile land created by the Chikuma and Sai rivers that flow through the center of JA Nagano and the clean water that originates from the melted snow. In addition, the unique climate, which has relatively little rain and a large temperature difference between day and night, seems to lead to the growth of high-quality agricultural products that are sweet and have good coloring. In addition, it is also attempted to maintain the season when delicious food can be eaten for a long time by shifting the peak of shipment in each area by utilizing the complicated terrain with different altitudes. The town of Nagano has developed around the town of not having called any tiles, which was formed in front of the Zenkoji Temple gate. According to “Zenkoji Engi”, Zenkoji Nyorai is the Amitabha triad sent from Paekche; ancient Korean kingdom (18 BCE-660 CE) and moved to the Minochi District in Shinano Province in 602. Zenkoji became famous all over the country as a sacred place for the Amida worship along with the spread of the Pure Land Buddhism since the end of the Heian period. The current main hall was rebuilt in 1707, and its floor area seems to be the largest national treasure in eastern Japan. I hear that there are many cultural properties in the precincts, such as the national treasure Zenkoji main hall attached kitchen, the mountain gate of important cultural properties, and the Kyozo. In addition, around Zenkoji, there is a townscape of the Inbo area where shukubo are lined up, a townscape of tiled roofs leading to the approach, and a townscape of the old store area where brewery buildings are gathered. Set in these historical streets, historical festivals such as the Zenkoji Gokaicho, which counts once every seven years, and the Gion Festival at Yasaka Shrine, which is adjacent to the Zenkoji precincts, are held. Around Zenkoji, there are many ancient shrines called “Zenkoji 7” such as Miwa Shrine, Yubuku Shrine, and Takei Shrine. There is a historic building in the precincts, and it is said that traditional festivals are inherited by local residents. In 1874, the Ministry of Interior's Industrial Promotion Board (Agricultural and Industrial Commerce, Ministry of Interior, Aomori Industry: Agricultural Policy, responsible for the period of the government that reorganized the pioneer ambassador, Baron Yoshio TANAKA (agricultural scholar) from Iida City, Natural history) Saplings will be distributed nationwide, centered on the samurai, and apple cultivation will begin in suitable areas such as Aomori and Nagano prefectures.（Most of the apple-producing areas are said to have been in use since the distribution of seedlings by the Ministry of Interior in 1874.）Zenkojidaira (Shinano no Kuni: Yotsudaira: From the south to Chikuma City, Nagano City, “Suzaka City”, “Obuse Town”, “Takayama Village”, Iizuna Town, Nakano City, the entire Chikuma River basin) Therefore, in 1966 (Showa 41), due to the merger with Nagano City, “Suzaka City” became the Shinonoi district of Nagano City. Currently, it is an area that plays a sub-center role in the southern part of Nagano City. The main industry is that a commercial area with a mixture of houses is formed around Shinonoi Station, and roadside commercial facilities, business establishments, factories, etc. are located along the national highway. Nagano (Shinano: Gokishichido（Refers to the Kinai five countries of Yamato, Yamashiro, Settsu, Kawachi, and Izumi, and the seven roads refer to the seven sections of Tokaido, Tosando, Hokurikudo, Sanindo, Sanyodo, Nankaido, and Saikaido）: Tosan-do) is a representative apple producing area. It is said that production got off to a good start in the 1887s. In Nagano prefecture, it is said that the sericulture area has increased rapidly due to the prefecture's recommendation for apple cultivation due to the sericulture of silkworms caused by the global economic crisis in the early Showa period. In recent years, JA Nagano has been in a difficult environment due to the aging of farmers, future population decline, intensifying market competition due to international free trade agreements such as TPP, and a decrease in financial business profits due to the prolonged negative interest rate policy. Correspondingly, it seems that it is promoting the restructuring of branches and bases. In the Suko block, the grape varieties are being updated and the area is expanding, so it seems that the policy is to continue the operation of the 4 collection shipping facilities (Suzaka, Takaho, Hino, Obuse) for the time being. By expanding Shine Muscat in the future, if it is necessary to index the rating (a fruit selection system using AI), it will aim to consolidate it into two locations (around February 2021). In the co-selection center for apples and peaches, the Inoue co-selection center will be the Sutaka Fruit Center (Kojima Town) at 2021, and the Obuse Daiichi Fruit Center (Oshima) and the Takayama Co-selection Center (Araihara) will be the Sutaka Fruit Center. I heard that we will improve the acceptance system and aim for integration. The company plans to use the Inoue Co-selection Center later and make it a comprehensive materials center operated by Zen-Noh Nagano in 2021. In addition, the mutual aid business of the Takayama branch was transferred to the Obuse branch in 2021. JA Nagano operates a comprehensive material center in the Inoue store, which is the base for delivery. In November 2020, the former Ninrei branch, where the number of ATMs used has decreased significantly, was abolished, and the equipment installed in the former Tsusumi branch was transferred to the newly built Obuse branch in December of the same year. In Nagano prefecture, which is called the roof of Japan, Suzaka is a low altitude area. In other words, it is basically cool, but in summer there is a difference in temperature between day and night, and the sugar content of the fruit tends to rise.  In addition, Suzaka is one of the lightest rainfall areas in Japan, with annual rainfall of about 800 to 900 mm, and is the best area for growing fruits with a lot of sunshine, less disease, and condensed taste. The orchards under the jurisdiction of the Suko Fruit Center are said to be the Chikuma Riverbed, and the flat land and Chikuma Riverbed formed by the alluvial fans of the Matsukawa, Todogawa, and Ayukawa rivers. Each has the characteristics of highly permeable gravel, fertile soil, and well-drained sand, all of which seem to be advantageous soils for fruit production. “Shinshu Suzaka” has a long-standing enterprising temperament, and has prospered as a merchant town since the Edo period. In addition, I heard that he is at the knee of the Nagano Fruit Tree Experiment Station and is still working on making delicious fruits by incorporating advanced technology as soon as possible. It seems that the alluvial fan in Suzaka was once filled with mulberry fields for sericulture, and most of the flat land was paddy fields. However, with the history of sericulture price plunge, it was converted to apples and grapes, and paddy fields were converted to fruit trees due to national policy, which was the start of fruit development in Susaka. In the latter half of the Showa era, apples and grapes were the main production area, but as a result of technological innovation aimed at increasing income, it seems that it has grown into a production area for various fruit trees such as peach nectarines, pears, and prunes. The Nagano Fruit Tree Experiment Station in Suzaka also played a major role in the technological innovation that supports this growth. In addition, many producers have acquired environmentally friendly farmer (as recognized by law) qualifications in response to recent market needs, reduce pesticides and chemical fertilizers as much as possible, reduce the burden on the environment, and produce safer and more fruit in Japan. We are aiming to expand not only to the world but also to the world. (Reduction of pesticide use by using pheromones, reduction of fertilizer components in the environment, etc.) Among the major apple producing areas in Japan, Suzaka is known as an area where apples mature early. It is attractive to be able to deliver fresh apples to customers as soon as possible. Moreover, it is highly evaluated in Japan as a delicious apple with a high sugar content. Due to the effects of recent warming, it seems that there are some years and varieties that are difficult to color red, but it seems that they are making apples with the appearance and content as much as possible. Many of the fruit fields in Suzaka are converted from paddy fields, and the fertile soil is advantageous for making delicious pears. In addition, it is easy to irrigate, and it seems that optimal hydration for pear production is possible. Among pear-producing areas nationwide, the amount of precipitation is low and there are few diseases, so it is often the case that the use of fungicides is withheld. All four fruit sorting machines are equipped with optical sensors (internal quality sensors), and two of them are free tray type. The optical sensor analyzes the sugar content, ripeness, etc. of the fruit with light. In the Frito-Lay type, it seems that the quality can be measured individually by placing the selected fruits on a tray with a barcode. Soft fruits such as peaches have less impact, so damage during fruit selection can be reduced and quality can be improved. In 2021, the "Apple Task Force," which consists of seven volunteer apple farmers from the JA Suzaka Youth Club, is working on apple cultivation classes and making pictogram apples every year for third-year children attending the local Toyosu Elementary School in Suzaka City. On July 7, 26 children had a bagging experience at an apple orchard in the city. It seems that the group started this initiative about 10 years ago, saying, “I want you to get familiar with local agricultural products through the cultivation experience.” Pictograph apples are made by sticking a pictogram sticker on an apple and coloring it by exposing it to sunlight, and when the sticker is removed at the time of harvest, the shape of the pictogram remains. Wonderful! At the Takayama Branch of the Suko Apple Subcommittee, (Takayama Village Clean Fruit Council) has been working on pesticide-reducing cultivation using sex pheromone agents since 1991 under the slogan of “cleaner and safer apples”. Received the Excellence Award at the 1st Environmental Conservation Agricultural Promotion Contest. In addition, the “environmentally friendly farmer (as recognized by law) system” certified by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries was introduced by all members in 2005, and the “plan for the introduction of a highly sustainable agricultural production method” was implemented. As of 2010, all 235 members of the Takayama Branch of the Suko Agricultural Cooperative Apple Subcommittee have been certified. It is said that the reason for reducing the number of times pesticides are sprayed by using artificial pheromones is not only to make fruits that are kind to the natural environment, but also to pursue the original taste of apples. I hear that we will continue to make every effort to ensure that our customers can enjoy delicious “Shinshu Takayama refreshing apples” with peace of mind. Again, the Suko area is an alluvial fan with a large temperature difference between day and night and a light rain area. Therefore, it is a rare fruit producing area in Japan. JA Nagano's Suko block (formerly JASuko) has the same light rain and is likened to Hollywood in the United States, which has become the capital of movies. It is the brand name of fruits such as. “Shinano Sweet” has been cultivated at the Nagano Fruit Tree Experiment Station (Suzaka City) since 1978 by mating and selecting “Fuji Apple” × “Tsugaru Apple”. Complete the seedlings that mature in mid-October in the breeding ground (Suzaka City, Nagano Prefecture), which is red and weighs about 350 g. In Nagano City, Nagano Prefecture, “Shinano Sweet”, which was cultivated over a period of about 15 years, was applied for registration in 1994 based on the Seedling Law, and was registered in 1996.

The color of an apple is not only red but also red-black, yellow and etc. There are many kinds of apples, such as “Shinano-Sweet”, “Shinano-Dolce”, “Shinano-Piccolo”, and yellow “Shinao-Gold”, which are native to Nagano prefecture in Japan. Nagano Prefecture, is a famous apple producing area that boasts the second largest shipment volume in Japan. Born in Nagano Prefecture (SHINSHU), “Akibae,” “Shinano Sweet,” and “Shinano Gold” are said to be the “Three Brothers of Shinshu Apples,” continuing. One who has my commandments, and keeps them, that person is one who loves me. One who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will reveal myself to him. Iōannēn Euangelion: Evangelium Secundum Iohannem): (Forerunner; John the Baptist): Novum Testamentum; Johannine literature. NARO announced on June 12, 2018 that it has developed a new variety of apples that can easily be colored deep red even when the temperature is high. The harvest season for apples is from August to November, but it is clear that poor coloring of the red varieties of Wase has become a major problem as global warming progresses. Even with Nakate varieties, the number of cases of harvesting in high temperature is increasing, so similar coloring defects are likely to occur, and countermeasures are required. The Nakate variety was developed and the name is “Kinshu; 錦秋.” According to the National Agriculture and Food Research Organization, the fruits that ripened in deep red during the autumn harvest season were named after the colorful autumn leaves like brocade. Currently, the most produced apple of the Nakate variety in Japan is “Jonagold”, which was born in the United States and has a slightly strong acidity. Instead, the number of sweet-tasting “Shinano Sweets” is increasing. Therefore, NARO seems to have developed a sweet New Nakate variety that is easy to color deep red even under high temperature conditions and has a different harvest time from “Shinano Sweet”. I don't see it in the market, but I really hope for an early meeting.

Full-scale reclamation began after the establishment of the colonial plot in 1894. The following year, 1895, the Sanin migration company was settled at the northern foot, Soga farm was opened, 1898, Arishima farm was opened at the western foot, 1897, the former Sanuki Marugame feudal lord Takanori KYOGOKU opened a farm, and the southern foot was Sanuki, 1895. Begins with the settlement of Awa, Tosa, and Southern groups. The slope at the foot of the mountain becomes cultivated land up to the second station, but the limit of cultivated land is determined by the soil erosion due to the slope and the inflow of sediment from the erosional valley that extends radially from the mountaintop. Feared as “the devil's mountain,” he has repeatedly moved up and down. After World War II, it was judged that measures to grow privately owned forests beyond the limit of cultivated land would be effective, and a privately owned (Doyurin) forest direct control mountain restoration project including construction of low dams and diffusion dams that slow down debris flow was carried out in 1972. It has been advanced since the year.

An alpine plant zone near the top of Mt. Yotei. Is conical and has a wide base like Mt. Fuji, so it is called “Ezo Fuji”, the highest peak in Hokkaido, Japan. At the foot of the mountain is a wooded area such as Lalix kaempferi and Abies sachalinensis, and from the 7th station there is a Pinus pumila belt. There is a flower field near the crater with a circumference of 2 km. A scenic view of the Sea of ​​Japan and the Pacific Ocean from the top. This mountain was originally called Matenesiri (Meyama) in the Ainu language. The name of the Shiribetsu River that flows at the foot of the river is derived from the Ainu name Siri Pet (a river that descends along the mountain), but this is why Wajin named the area around this river (current branch office name) Shirihe. , Shiribeshi (Mt. Yotei), and it seems that the big mountain that stands out there was named Shiribeshiyama. I heard that this name was simplified and the reading changed, and it became Mt. Yotei before I knew it. Mt. Shiribetsu in the southeast is visible before Mt. Yotei when crossing the Nakayama Pass from Sapporo, and the shape of the mountain is similar. On the other hand, in the “Ezo no Zu” in the Dr. Ryoan Terashima Illustrated Sino-Japanese Encyclopedia (1712), Mt. Yotei itself is described as Shiribetsu. It seems that it is not clear which is which fake. It seems that the Ainu people in the old days called Mt. Shiribetsu today Pinneshiri (Otokoyama) and regarded it as a married couple with Mt. Yotei, a female mountain. After the formation of the main body of the volcano, at least 6 parasitic volcanoes such as Kitayama and Hangetsu Lake were generated by the lateral eruption. The shapes of these parasitic volcanoes and lava flows are also reflected in the current terrain, due to the fact that the mountain shape is not a perfect cone.

International Year of Fruits and Vegetables (IYFV2021): 2021 was set by the United Nations to raise global awareness of the nutritional and health benefits of eating fruits and vegetables. It was adopted at the 74th United Nations General Assembly held in December 2019. The United Nations provides a valuable opportunity to raise awareness about the important role that fruits and vegetables play in human nutrition, food security, health and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The United Nations has set a goal of zeroing the hungry population by 2030 in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), but the hungry population will reach 690 million in 2019, and another 8,300 by the end of 2020. Expected to starve between 10,000 and 132 million people. The hungry population in 2020 is estimated to be about one-tenth of the world's population, with a maximum of 811 million. This is a maximum increase of 161 million compared to 2019, and many of the factors are believed to be due to the effects of the new coronavirus infection (COVID-19). The current trend seems to be that about 660 million people are left behind against the goal of zero hunger by 2030, and it is estimated that the goal will not be achieved. On the other hand, since 1975, the world's obese population has tripled, and obesity is a major risk factor for lifestyle-related diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, stroke and cancer in both developed and developing countries. It is a thing. Fruits and vegetables are rich in dietary fiber, vitamins, minerals, etc. and are an important source for preventing lifestyle-related diseases, but even in developed countries, the average intake per adult has not reached the required amount. In addition, although the world's fruit and vegetable production is sufficient to feed the world's population, it is clear that it is lost or discarded and not eaten in the process of consumption in developed countries and in the process of distribution in developing countries. What do you guys think? I've been proclaiming increased food production through this blog, but it's also an issue that makes me think more than necessary. Against this background, the United Nations has adopted the “International Year of Fruits and Vegetables 2021”, and various publicity activities have been carried out with the aim of making people aware of the importance of fruits and vegetables and reducing loss and waste. Will be. The Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries of Japan also seized this opportunity to widely inform the country of the importance of incorporating fruits and vegetables into their daily diet, together with various stakeholders such as companies and organizations. It seems that the official supporter system for “Vegetable Year 2021” was established. Promote fruit and vegetable consumption and production that contributes to a sustainable food system. Improving sustainability in storage, transportation, trade, processing, cooking, retail, waste reduction, recycling, and interactions between these stages. Integration of smallholders, including family farmers, into national, regional and global production activities and value chains and supply chains for the sustainable production and consumption of fruits and vegetables. (Fruits and vegetables include the roles of their diverse varieties and native species and contribute to the food security, nutrition, livelihood and income of small-scale farmers.) All countries, especially developing countries, have fruits and vegetables. Strengthen the ability to introduce innovative methods and technologies to combat food loss and waste. “Vegetable Intake”: WHO (World Health Organization) and FAO recommend that you consume at least 400 g of vegetables and fruits per person per day to prevent heart disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity, etc. In addition, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare of Japan recommends eating 350 g or more of vegetables per person per day for a nutritionally balanced diet in the health promotion index “Health Japan 21”. The intake is about 280 g, which is 70 g short. 350 g of vegetables is roughly equivalent to 5 small plates (70 g × 5 plates). If you eat one plate of vegetables out of three meals a day, you will reach your goal. It's a name given as it came from Nanjing, China. In 1542, a Portuguese ship was said to have drifted ashore in “Bungo Japan” (It came to Japan because it arrived at the port of Bungo no Kuni (Now Oita prefecture). “Don Francisco (Furan Shijiki) Christian: Christian [1680: After Enho 8“, avoiding the sword of Tokugawa 5th Shogun Tsunayoshi-Ko, “Kichi” Catholicism, Christianity): 1530, Eiroku 3 to 1587, Muromachi Shogunate 12th Shogun “Yoshiharu Ashikaga-Ko 1511, Eisho 8 to 1550” Oriental pumpkin: Cucurbita moschata “The feature's that the skin's dark and the unevenness is clear. The pulp's viscous, has a lot of water, and has a moist feeling.” Western pumpkin: Cucurbita maxima “Cultivars such as the Hubbard group, Delicious group, Turban group, and Manmoth group are known.” Introduced from the United States in 1863, cultivation began in earnest in the first year of the Meiji era and spread throughout Hokkaido. Pepo pumpkin: cucurbita pepo: Spaghetti squash, zucchini are also reported to be friends. It's said to have originated in North America and Central America, and it is unclear when it came to Japan, but the record introduced in the first year of the Meiji  era remains. The leaves are mottled and splintered. The flowers are yellow or orange and are short-lived. Therefore, there is a tendency that artificial pollination is often applied to pollination. In the days of “Hideyoshi Toyotomi” and Tokichiro Kinoshita? History has dreams. There's a lot of hope. Agricultural products are passed on with a feeling of romance. Since pumpkin fruits can be stored for a long period of time, they have long been an important food in winter when vegetables tend to be In recent years, there has been a growing awareness of green and yellow vegetables due to health food orientation, frozen foods due to the nuclear family, and more imported products. Consumption is increasing year by year, and the post-harvest curing treatment (Degradation of starch is promoted, which leads to an increase in total sugar content.) Is remarkable. The Yotei Agricultural Cooperative is located in the southwestern part of the foot of Mt. It consists of Makkari Village, Rusutsu Village, Kimobetsu Town, Kyogoku Town, and Kutchan Town), and in March 1997, eight JA merged agricultural cooperatives. Was born as. Among agricultural production, potatoes were designated as a vegetable designated production area as the “Mt. Yotei” area in 1974, and as a result of vigorous production promotion since then, they are highly evaluated as the main production area of ​​edible potatoes in Hokkaido today. It came to. Bareisho; Solanum tuberosum, which accounts for one-third of the sales business of about 20 billion yen, boasts a planted area of ​​3,500 hectares and a collection volume of about 80,000 tons, and is a major pillar of JA. In July 2017, it was decided to hold the “G8 Hokkaido Lake Toyako Summit”, and an international media center will be set up in Rusutsu Village, which is expected to be visited by many press personnel and tourists from Japan and overseas. Therefore, 36 varieties of potatoes (for raw food, processing, and starch) were cultivated so that they would bloom in early July, and press personnel and tourists could enjoy the colorful flowers of Mt. Yotei in the background. The purpose was to improve the image as a production area, to have an interest in potatoes and to understand agriculture. 倶知安 is a kanji; Chinese characters for “Kutchan”. Is named after the Ainu word “Kutchani”. Kusshani is the old name of the Kutosan River, a tributary of the Shiribetsu River. Kushani is “Ku Shan Yi” from the meaning of “a place that flows out of a place like a kudzu”. This Ku Shan Yi becomes Kusshani, and further changes to Kudosani to become the Kutoyama River. On the other hand, the same Kusshani became Kuchan and became a place name, which was announced in 1893. The “kanji” was assigned by Mr. Takeshi SHIRANI（He has served as the chief of the geography section of the department, the secretary of the Ministry of Education, the secretary of the Takushoku affairs, the secretary of the internal affairs, the chief of the internal affairs secretary / minister's secretariat Hokkaido, the director of the shrine of the Ministry of Interior and the chief of the Hokkaido section of the general affairs bureau.）, the counselor of the Hokkaido Agency at that time. The town emblem is a design of the acronym “K” of the town with the image of a snowflake and the image of a bird flapping its wings. The overlapping of snowflakes represents “contact”, the image of a fluttering bird represents “leap and dynamism”, and the blue symbol color represents “development and hope for the future”. It symbolizes “Kutchan, the town of contact”. It was enacted on July 1, 1991 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the opening of the foundation. And this year marks the 130th anniversary. Town Flower: “yellow-flowered rhododendron”-It is an evergreen small shrub that grows naturally in the high mountains of Hokkaido and Tohoku, and has five yellow petals that can be cultivated from July to August. It was selected because it is a representative alpine plant of Mt. Yotei and the Niseko mountain range, and was considered as one of the projects commemorating the 100th anniversary of the opening of the foundation in 1991. Town Tree: Acer pictum Thunb. Subsp. Mono (Maxim.) H. Ohashi, 1993-It is a deciduous tree of the Aceraceae family, and in the fall, seven constricted leaves turn yellow. Selected because it is widely distributed around the town and was used as a material for skis in the early days of skiing. Widely used in parks and roadside trees. It was examined together with Machihana, and was announced and enacted on December 11, 1998. Image character: Jyagata-Kun-The design is for potatoes to ski, with potatoes wearing blue skis and green ski caps. The triangular ski cap is a Sho-chan hat, which was unveiled on August 3, 1991, in the image of Mt. Yotei. “Niseko Town, Abuta District” is 140 degrees 48 minutes east longitude and 42 degrees 52 minutes north latitude. Located in the western part of Central Hokkaido, almost in the center of the Shiribeshi jurisdiction. Surrounded by the mountains of Mt. Yotei (1,898 m), a national park in the east, and Niseko Annupuri (1,309 m), a national park in the north, it forms a hilly basin with many wavy slopes. The Shiribetsu River (the clearest river in Japan in 2004) flows in the center of the town, and small and medium-sized rivers such as the Konbu River, Nisekoanbetsu River, and Makkari River flow into it. It has an inland climate, with an average temperature of 6.3 degrees Celsius, and the deepest snowfall in winter can reach as high as 200 cm. It is within 120 minutes by private car from Sapporo City and Chitose Airport, and about 90 minutes by private car from Otaru City. Niseko means “a steep cliff” in the Ainu language. Also, “Nupuri” means "mountain" in the Ainu language, and the mountain “Niseko Annupuri” with a ski resort means “mountain with a steep cliff (and a river below it)” in the Ainu language. It seems to be. 1895 Entered Nishitomi, the first immigrant of Town. 1897 Separated from Abuta Village and entered the area of ​​Makkari Village. Even as of 1901, the branch village became independent from the neighboring village, Makkari Village. Named “Katamura” from Makkari Village character Makkari Betsuta, and set up a government office in the current aza-motomachi. The town system was enforced in 1950, and the name was changed to Niseko Town in 1964. 2001 100 years since the opening of Niseko Town. This year marks the 120th anniversary of the milestone. Enforcement of “Niseko Town Development Basic Ordinance”. The town was separated from Makkari Village (Currently Rusutsu Village) in November 1901, and the Tocho Office was set up in the current Town district. The pioneer hoe was put down in the present Nishitomi area by the ancestors, and the town developed while confronting many difficulties under the harsh natural conditions. Overview of town history, prehistoric times : Paleolithic and Jomon period ruins are left in the town. The Paleolithic period was the final stage of the ice age, and the straits around Hokkaido were connected to the land, so it is speculated that people moved in search of food. In the Jomon period, the climate approached the current state, and the lifestyle changed from a dynamic life to a sedentary life. By this time, people are thought to have lived in the hills of the Shiribetsu River, and many ruins such as earthenware and arrowheads are left behind. Prehistoric times are revealed in the ruins. However, no records have been found from the Middle Ages (Kamakura, Muromachi period), when the Ainu society and culture were formed, to the latter half of the Edo period, and the actual situation remains unknown. Fascinate. More than 13,000 years ago, when tools were made mainly from stone and used on a daily basis to carry out daily life, pottery was used as a container and had a diverse cultural structure. It refers to the era from 1000 years ago to 2300 years ago. The town is located in the area called “Shiribeshi”, and the name was given by the pioneer ambassador in 1869, adopting the idea of ​​Mr. Takeshiro Matsuura. Takeshiro investigated the basin of the Shiribetsu River twice at the end of the Tokugawa shogunate, and considered Mt. It is said that he called “Yotei”. In addition, it is said that the country name of this region was “Shiribeshi”. In the early Edo period, the river flow was strong upstream from the vicinity of Niseko Town, and it seems that there were no Ainu settlements because it was difficult to fish for salmon and trout. However, when I learned that this basin had abundant resources, I came to work during the fishing season. The Japanese clerk is Japan's first Chokusenshu history book, completed in 720? It is said that when Abe no Hirafu-Ko, who was the national guard of the Hokuriku region, led the Navy to conquer Ezo, he set the rear Yotei as the administrative agency and appointed a county official according to the opinions of the two Ezo. Agricultural work during the pioneering period: In 1894, the land that had been the imperial forest was converted to a national forest. This makes it possible to cultivate. In 1895, a plot was set up, and a hoe for clearing was to be put in. Unlike other areas, the town is characterized by the fact that it has been cultivated by farms invested by capitalists in Honshu and group settlers, and among them, the nationally famous farm is “Arishima Farm”. A farm reclaimed by Takeshi Arishima (Mr. Takeo's father: Although he was a samurai of the Shimazu clan, he was promoted as a bureaucrat of the Meiji government and retired as the director of the government bond bureau of the Ministry of Finance. Served as an officer. When the State-owned Undeveloped Land Disposal Law was enforced in Hokkaido in 1897, he started a reclamation project on 350 ha of land in Kaributo Village, Hokkaido.) in 1899 after receiving a wage cut on undeveloped land. The farm was taken over by Takero in 1908, but in 1922 he declared the farm open for free and gave the farmland to the peasants free of charge. The peasants organized the “Kaributo Symbiotic Farmers' Association（Business: Agricultural land sharing, rice cultivation, dairy farming, joint purchase / use of materials / machinery, joint direct sales to the market.）” and managed all of the farm facilities as a shared property. This will continue until the 1949 Act on Special Measures for the Creation of Homegrown Farms comes into force. This act had a great impact on the society at that time.Before the liberation, it was the office of Arishima Farm and the residence of Mr. Takeo Arishima, after the liberation it was the office of Kaributo Kyosei Agricultural Co., Ltd., and after the dissolution, it was the first “Arishima Memorial Hall”, but it was destroyed by fire in 1957. The Arishima Thanksgiving Hall was built in 1963 with the cooperation of former union members and local residents. Around 1897, Kaributo Village (now Niseko Town) was considered to be an undeveloped land in Makkari Village, so all the duties including family register affairs had to go to Makkari Village. Around 1901, the movement of residents who wanted a branch village became active, and the first residents' convention was held on September 17. On October 16th of the same year, a notification of the branch village was issued from Hokkaido, and the branch village will be approved in a short time. Regarding the revision of the town name, there was a movement in 1936, but as a result, it ended in misfire, and in 1966, the second katakana town “Niseko Town” was born by the second movement. Located in the southern part of Mt. Yotei, which is known as Ezo Fuji, it is a pure farming village that has developed with agriculture as its core industry. The main crops are potatoes, radishes, carrots, etc. Among them, edible lily roots It boasts the largest shipment volume in Japan. It is also well known as the birthplace of enka singer Mr. Takashi Hosokawa, and the Makkari River Park, which runs through the village, has a singing “Takashi Hosokawa Memorial Statue” and is said to be a popular tourist spot. The name of the village is derived from the Ainu language “Makkaripet”: a conversion from the river surrounding Mt. Yotei. Rusutsu Village was founded in 1872 when Higashi Honganji opened a new road to Usu district and moved to Sannohe. After passing through branch villages, the current Rusutsu Village was born in 1924. With an area of ​​119.84 km2, National Highway No. 230 runs from Sapporo to Toyako Onsen in the center of the village. Mt. Yotei rises to the north of the village, and is adjacent to Kimobetsu Town in the northeast, Makkari Village in the northwest, Toyako Town (Former: Toya Village) in the Iburi Subprefecture in the south, and Date City (Former: Otaki Village). At the foot of Mt. Yotei, the village of Rusutsu, a plateau of green and white snow, is an endless village of happiness, thanks to the hard work of its ancestors and the blessings of abundant nature, who endured the harsh wind and snow and broke the foundation of their hometown. Established a charter in hopes of its development. Rusutsu: Mr. Takeshiro Matsuura, a Japanese man who passed through the village more than 140 years ago. The footsteps are described in the “Backward Yotei Diary” (diary on February 2, 1952). “Go to Horonutsuf (Shino) Nutsukehetsu (Genya Kitakawa to Akota territory Hen) Yutoenka (Hara) Rusochi (Miscellaneous trees), It reaches Sorioi (at the foot of Yudake)... ”. (“Takishiro Ezo Diary Collection No. 2” Japanese Classic Complete Works Publishing Association) Rusutsu in the text is said to be the origin of the name of Rusutsu today. One of the first people to settle in the village, Mr. Kazaemon Abe, moved to the village with Kuninari Date-Ko in April 1871 as a clan of the Sendai domain, and in 1872 he handled the station in Kimobetsu. He is said to be the first person to settle in village on record. Large farm management: In 1888, Mr. Bunzo Hashiguchi entered Rusutsu Village and moved to the United States at the age of 22 to study agriculture. He aimed to manage a large American farm and dreamed of a model farm by importing all the machinery from San Francisco. Abandoned the business due to labor shortage and inconvenient transportation, and in 1892 Mr. Yasuaki Kato took over the farm with Mr. Bunzo's dream. Mr. Bunzo and Mr. Yasuaki Kato could not realize the concept of large farm management, but they left a big mark on Rusutsu agriculture and were the first to put a hoe in the village. In 1891, the predecessor of National Highway No. 230 started construction on the road from “Abuta” to Sapporo via Toya, Rusutsu, Nakayama Pass, and Jozankei, and was completed in 1895. This road played a major role in agricultural development at the foot of Mt. Yotei. The JA Yotei jurisdiction is located in the central and southern part of the Shiribeshi branch office jurisdiction in southwestern Hokkaido. In this position, there is the Conide-type independent peak “Mt. Yotei”, which is the symbol of this JA, and the countryside spreads around it, and you can see “Mt. Yotei”, one of the 100 famous mountains in Japan, from each area. The climate is generally warm and sunny from spring to summer, but in winter it is affected by the northwest monsoon, and there is a lot of snowfall, with heavy snowfall extending from mid-November to mid-April, especially in the foothills of Yotei. , It is one of the most heavy snowfall areas in Hokkaido. In local agriculture, a wide range of production such as rice farming, upland farming, vegetables, and livestock farming is carried out, and various management forms suitable for climate, soil, and climate conditions are formed. The Yotei Agricultural Cooperative is located in the southwestern part of the foot of Mt. Yotei in the Shiribeshi jurisdiction and consists of 9 towns and villages. It was established in March 1997 as a merged agricultural cooperative of 8JA. The head office is located in Kutchan Town, and there is “Mt. Yotei” in the center of the area, and the agricultural land spreads around it. Among agricultural productions, Jingle bells were designated as a vegetable production area as the “Mt. Yotei” area in 1974, and as a result of vigorous production promotion since then, they are now the main production area for edible horse bells in Hokkaido. It has been highly evaluated. Jingle bell, which accounts for one-third of the sales business, boasts a planted area of ​​3,500 ha and a collection volume of about 80,000 tons, and is a major pillar of JA. After the merger of JA, the “Yotei Agricultural Cooperative Edible Horse Bell Production Organization Liaison Council” (about 900 producers) was established in March 1997 to unify the production union activities inherited from the former agricultural cooperative. Toward the early establishment of the “Yotei brand”, we have been actively engaged in business with the aim of achieving high quality leveling, standardization and production promotion. Cultivation workshops, quality standards, acceptance handling standards, consumer area market research, etc. meet more than 20 times a year and consist of tireless efforts. Raw edible horse bells at the foot of Mt. Yotei are famous all over the country for their good taste, and even after the merger of JA, we focused on early shipment before the August bon, and long-term leveling by early shipment, the largest raw edible horse bell in Hokkaido. We have built a planned shipping system of 80,000 tons. It is sought after as a “Reliable Production Area” from mass retailers such as Keihanshin and Kanto. The producer proved that the crops were cultivated and harvested safely by observing the standards stated in the cultivation calendar such as daily control and fertilization by the efforts of all the members of the production history book, and in JA, before shipping. It is said that it is working to create a production area that is trusted by consumers by voluntarily conducting residual inspections of pesticides. In addition, a compost intensive treatment facility and a compost house have been developed to effectively utilize organic resources in the area and to build a function to circulate them. For that purpose, we will analyze the soil and compost components of the fields that require compost input, promote the systematization of compost input based on the soil diagnosis fertilizer application design, and promote sustainable circulation as a production base for edible horse bells. We are promoting type farming. The harvest of the early-maturing variety “Toya” has reached its final stage, and the harvest of the advanced cultivation “Danshaku”, which began in early August, has reached its peak, and 5,000 to 15,000 cases per day are shipped to prefectures. Mikado Kyowa : Under the Lima Gran Group, Kyowa Seedling Co., Ltd. and Mikado Breeding Farm Co., Ltd. merged in 2007 and started as “Mikado Kyowa Co., Ltd.” Hokkaido Branch: Kita 3-jo, Chuo Word, Sapporo City, Hokkaido: Onodai, Midori Word, Chiba City, Chiba. Rupiah Red was announced in 1990 from the mating of (IK × Andes) × Earls, and is known as a popular red meat net melon that is easy to make. It is a middle leaf with medium internodes and a little strong grass. Female flower settling and fruit set are stable and good. The fruit is a regular sphere inside and outside 1500 g, the skin color is grayish green, the net is dense and evenly expressed, and it rises a little. The flesh is dark orange and thick, and the lenticel green flesh is slightly thin. It is hard to become hollow fruit and seeds do not flow. The sugar content is high and stable at 16 degrees inside and outside, the meat quality is rich in melting quality, and the taste is good. 53 days after flowering, it matures properly inside and outside, and 3 to 7 days after harvest is the best time to eat, which is a delicious time. It is hard to vine, has good female flower settling and fruit set, and is easy to cultivate. In addition, it is resistant to Fusarium oxysporuｍ (race 0,2) and is resistant to powdery mildew. The optimum temperature for germination is around 27 ° C, and after germination, the seedlings are transplanted to a seedling raising pot and gradually acclimatized to low temperatures. The standard amount of fertilizer applied is nitrogen 8-10 kg / 10 a, phosphoric acid 15-20 kg / 10a, K 10-12 kg / 10 a. It is advisable to add enough good quality compost so that the fertilizer effect will last for a long time. Beds should be prepared early, mulched and tunneled, and warm enough. Plant after the soil temperature can be secured at 16 ℃ or higher. No special cultivation technique such as “steaming” is required. Throughout the growing season, the maximum temperature is 28 ° C, the eve temperature (temperature until 12:00 pm) is 12 ° C, and the minimum temperature is 10 ° C. From around the mating period until the net is completed, I would like to aim for a temperature of 15 ° C the night before. When the outside air is cold, pay attention to the ventilation volume and wind direction so that the outside air does not come into direct contact with the crops, and devise ways such as making the film in the tunnel inside the house half-open to make it a tsuitate. Irrigation should be done around the time when the resulting branches are aligned, after confirming fruit set and during the horizontal net development period, and irrigation should be modest from about 10 days before the harvest time. The number of days from flowering to harvest is about 55 days, depending on the cultivation season and grass vigor, and it seems that harvesting may take 60 days in the low temperature period and 50 days in the high temperature period. Discoloration of the fruit stem, change in skin color, result: Soil deficiency of the first leaf of the branch, cracks in the fallen cork, thin nets between the nets, etc. It is good to judge and judge the harvest. A popular red meat melon that is easy to make, has a high sugar content, and has a nostalgic scent. The flesh is soft, the mouthfeel is mellow and juicy. Although the net (stitch pattern on the skin surface), which is a marker of sweetness, has a high density, it is famous as a variety whose sweetness tends to decrease because it is vulnerable to a hot and humid environment. “Yotei Melon” from Niseko Town was shipped for the first time on June 16, 2021, cutting the top of the agricultural cooperative jurisdiction. Blessed with good weather from March to April, it is a little larger than usual and is said to have great sweetness. The producer brought 12 cases of red meat “Rupiah Red” (8 kg per case) to the warehouse of the Niseko branch of the agricultural cooperative. The sugar content is 17.4 to 17.5 degrees, and it seems that it was shipped to the Sapporo Central Wholesale Market. The long-awaited season for consumers has arrived. The author has just been accompanied the other day. The family was very pleased with the exceptional taste. In addition to melons, it is a large production area where many tastes of Hokkaido such as asparagus, tomatoes, carrots, burdock, dioscorea opposita, and potatoes are harvested. Yotei Pumpkin: “Ajihei: JAN (GTIN) Code: 4962484196197, Mating Name: Kyowa Seedling Co., Ltd. (In 2007, Kyowa Seedling Co., Ltd. and Mikado Breeding Farm Co., Ltd. merged ≒ Mikado Kyowa Co., Ltd.)”. In Kaga City, Ishikawa Prefecture, Ajihei pumpkin is branded and cultivated as one of the “Kaga Kutani vegetable”. Kaga City is known as the birthplace of Japan's leading colored porcelain “Kutani ware” and as a hot spring area where famous hot springs spring out. It refers to the seasonal vegetables produced in Kaga City cultivated in the climate, climate, and culture in a rich natural environment with two clear streams originating from Mt. Dainichi（Altitude 1368 m: It is the highest peak in Komatsu City and is designated as a prefectural natural park. The abundant nature of the primeval beech forest and the 360-degree panorama overlooking the mountains and valleys of the distant home attract visitors. At the junction of Mt. Dainichi and Mt. Suzugatake, there is the Dainichi Nature School “Katakuri Hut”, which seems to be used as a nature observation hut for climbers and as an evacuation hut in an emergency.）and a fertile plain. Local production for local consumption in Kaga City: In the sense of “consuming locally produced products locally,” this is an initiative that connects farmers and consumers through activities that consume locally produced products locally. Through these efforts, we aim to revitalize local agriculture by providing opportunities to purchase and consume local agricultural products. In addition, through education that makes children feel familiar with agriculture and agricultural products, they will deepen their attachment to “local agricultural products” and a sense of security, thereby expanding the consumption of agricultural products and supporting local agriculture. In Kaga City, in cooperation with JA Kaga's “JA Kaga Agri School Project”, children are promoting local production for local consumption in Kaga City by participating in agricultural experience activities. What is JA Kaga Agri School: Community-based food and agriculture education activities that provide children who will lead the next generation with opportunities such as farming experiences to help them understand the joy of growing agricultural products, harvesting and eating fresh food. By dispatching farming instructors and union member farmers to elementary schools in the city and having elementary school students learn about farming, they deepen their understanding of agriculture and give children the joy of growing agricultural products happily, harvesting and eating fresh food. It is famous as an effort to get people to understand. From Ishikawa Sunrise Industries Creation Organization: JA Green Kaga Agricultural Products Direct Sales Office “Genki Village”, Kaga City vegetables grown from two clear streams and fertile land are registered as “Kaga Kutani Vegetables”, as of September 1, 2021. JA Kaga's Ajihei Squash cultivation is spreading mainly as a crop of paddy rice, and is cultivated throughout Kaga city. It is a powdery squash that boasts a moderate sweetness and a fluffy feeling. It seems that Ajihei Squash is often shipped after about a week because it becomes sweeter and tastier when it is stored and aged than immediately after harvesting. The texture also changes from fluffy to sticky, so it's a good idea to change the cooking method depending on when you eat. I heard that it is cultivated all over Japan, including Ishikawa, Hokkaido, Aichi, and Kagoshima prefectures. Harvesting begins in early July and ends in late August or September. Shipment starts at the same time as harvesting, but the ones that have been aged for about a week have a higher sugar content and are more delicious. Shipments reach their peak from late July to early August, but it can be said that many of them are more mature after mid-August. A high-quality variety that pursues strong powder quality, high sugar content, and flavor. The flat fruits with a fruit weight of 1.7 to 1. kg are well aligned. The grass is strong, the vines grow well, and there are few side branches, so it is suitable for large-area free-range cultivation in tunnels and open fields. Large fruits can be produced by high fertilizer cultivation that emphasizes the original fertilizer. The flesh is dark yellow and thick, and the powderiness is the highest 30 days after flowering, and it becomes viscous and the sugar content is the highest at about 17 degrees in 40 to 45 days. The pericarp is dark patina with fine leaflet spots. I heard that there is no discoloration of the peel after harvesting and it has a long shelf life. “Snow makeup (Product registration: SAKATA SEED CORPORATION)” : Western pumpkins seem to prefer a cool climate among the fruits and vegetables. Since the grass is very strong, it is a variety suitable for extensive cultivation in tunnels and open field cultivation, and it is a variety that emphasizes quality rather than yield. The adaptability of the soil is wide, the suitable pH is 5.8 to 6.8, it has drought resistance and fertilizer absorption, and it seems that it is easier to make in a slightly thin soil. The grass is very strong. Female flower engraftment is distant. The flesh becomes strong powder from about 35 days after flowering, and the powderiness becomes the highest around 50 days after flowering. The fruit weighs around 2.3 kg and is round. The pericarp is grayish white (similar to “fragrance” when immature). The flesh is slightly pale yellow, and when boiled it becomes bright yellow and is a strong powder. There is little spoilage and deterioration of meat quality after harvesting, and it seems that the day is good. Immediately after harvesting, it is extremely powdery and has little sweetness, so it is preferable to consume it after a storage period of about one month. After storage, the sweetness increases and the taste becomes the best. The amount of fertilizer applied cannot be unconditionally determined depending on the soil quality and the afterimage of the previous crop, but due to the strong grass vigor, the standard fertilizer is around 5 kg of nitrogen, 15-18 kg of phosphoric acid, and 10-13 kg of potash per 10 a. In particular, nitrogen fertilizer should be about 40% of “Miyako Pumpkin”, and fertilizer should be added while checking the balance of the vine. The planting density is 4 m between furrows and 1m between plants, and 2 to 3 plants are tailored (about 250 plants per 10 a). It is recommended to cover the tunnel or mulch 5 to 7 days before planting and try to maintain a soil temperature of 14 to 15 ° C or higher at the time of planting. In open-field cultivation, prevent damage caused by the wind immediately after planting as much as possible. In tunnel cultivation, closed management is carried out for about 7 days after planting for the purpose of promoting survival. If the seal is prolonged, even if it does not die at high temperature, it seems to cause malformations of the ovary such as poor female flower settlement and large flower drop part. Therefore, after planting, it is advisable to ventilate as soon as possible so that the temperature does not exceed 33 ° C.  The minimum temperature should be 8 to 10 ° C. The female flowers are a little distant, around 13 nodes, but it seems that one vine and one fruit will bear fruit. Since the side branches are also vigorous, be sure to remove the side branches up to the fruit-bearing node. It seems that it is expected that about 2.3 kg of fruit can be harvested with fruit set around 13 sections. It is said that about 40 days after flowering will give a sufficient taste, but in order to bring out the characteristics of this variety, it is said that if it is about 50 days after flowering, it will be powdery, sweet and of the highest quality. Snow makeup is known as a useful variety because it can be shipped in winter when domestic pumpkins disappear from the market. It is said to have a pumpkin as a parent, and it is thick and has a lot of starch on the white skin, giving it a fluffy feeling. The feature is that the skin is soft and very sweet. Especially good storage stability. In the case of the whole, it can be stored for a long time until the beginning of the year in a cool and dark place with good ventilation. Over time, starch turns into sugar, which increases in sweetness and tends to become slightly sticky.

The surface is slightly white and it looks like snow. The flesh is thick and yellow, and the natural sweetness is pleasant. Like green skin, white skin is rich in β-carotene, potassium, vitamin E and dietary fiber.

処世の要諦: Although the Chinese name is different, it means to live well by suppressing the key parts in the workplace, the way of society, and the relationship with the world. Simply put, “It is important to be good at the world.” Rumex japonicus: Young shoots and young leaves are edible with mountain herbs. The site is the root, and the medicinal effect is expected to be effective for skin diseases and constipation. Another name is 牛草.

Minowa Castle (Minowa, Kashiwa City, Chiba Prefecture) is occupied at the tip of a tongue-shaped plateau sandwiched between the dissected valleys on the south coast of western Bog Teganuma. During the Kamakura period, Minowa belonged to Mr. Soma (Soma Document). The territorial relationship of Minowa after that is unknown, but it is presumed that Mr. Soma ruled and set up a residence nearby even in 1395 (Soma Document, Medieval Castle of Tokatsu). After that, it is said that Takajo Ise no Kami, a vassal of Mr. Tobari, became the lord of the castle, and it is believed that he owned the castle during the Warring States period (Tokatsu District magazine). The remains are connected by earthworks, with four walls arranged in the shape of a “rice field” by the earthworks and the empty moat. Moreover, some of the earthworks and empty moat were extremely magnificent, and were left in perfect shape around 1980 (Japanese Castle System). Currently, Bog Teganuma Hospital has been built and part of it has disappeared. The castle is thought to have existed from the middle of the 15th century to the end of the 16th century, and it is clear that it functioned as a Sengoku castle.

KIRINJI, who was born in Kashiwa City and climbed up to the former Sekiwake of annual wrestling matches: Kazuharu Taruzawa, a master wrestler with a fierce struggle, suffered from multiple organ failure on March 1, 2021. Died because of. The Japan Sumo Association announced on the 13th. He is 67 years old. His funeral and farewell ceremony was held at his family funeral. He was suffering from both diabetes and kidney disease. According to a Sumo Association official, he was ill with paralysis on his face as a result of having a tumor removal operation on his head around the summer of 2015. He was born in 1953, the same as the late Kitanoumi and the second generation Wakanohana (both former yokozuna), and became popular as one of the trio. On the 8th day of the summer of 1975, she had a fierce battle with Fujizakura, leaving an anecdote that Emperor Showa leaned forward and watched the game. In the summer of 1967, he stepped on the first ring from the Nishonoseki stable, and in the fall of 1974, wrestler newly promoted to makuuchi division. He became a new Sekiwake in Nagoya in 1975, and reigned in a total of 84 places in Makuuchi. He has won three awards once and won six Venus. After retiring from active duty at the age of 35 at the end of the fall of 1988, he instructed the younger generation in the Nishonoseki stable as the master of the Kitajin. At the Sumo Association, he mainly belongs to the traveling department. He was familiar with the annual wrestling matches broadcast with a refreshing narrative commentary. It reminds me of Mikuni Kindergarten, a certified children's garden in Asahi Town, where I attended when I was a child. He was the younger brother of the director. Even during his busy schedule, he frequently visited Mikuni and loved us. He always stroked his head with a smile and no anger. About 30 years ago? My mother had exchanged New Year's cards with the principal many times, but when the TV hit the sweepstakes, she happily called her mother. I still remember vividly. Ms. Hamashima, a stone dealer, is your parents' house, how are you still? It was said that you got married soon after we graduated. Will be happy. To this day, childhood memories are still valuable as a valuable asset.

【Major features】

JA Chiba Tokatsu is an agricultural cooperative whose jurisdiction is in the northwestern part of Chiba prefecture (the whole area of ​​Noda city, the whole area of ​​Abiko city, and a part of Kashiwa city and Funabashi city). It was born in January 2010 by the merger of JA Chiba Prefecture North, JA Kashiwa City, and JA Nishifunabashi. In April 2018, it merged with JA Tokatsu Futaba, which has jurisdiction over Abiko City and Kashiwa City. The JA jurisdiction located in the suburbs of Tokyo is a mixed area of ​​residential and agricultural land, but agriculture is very active. There are abundant paddy fields in the lowlands (alluvial plains) along the Tone and Edo rivers, and the Shimousa plateau (Kanto Loam Formation: The Kanto Loam Formation covers the stratum called the Shimosa Group, which was deposited in the shallow waters called Old Tokyo Bay from about 500,000 to 100,000 years ago. It is a volcanic ejecta mainly supplied by Mt. Fuji, and is thought to have been deposited on the uplifted and landed Shimousa Group until about 10,000 years ago. The Shimosa Plateau is one of the largest in Japan, more than twice as large as the Musashino Plateau. The western half of the plateau is lower in altitude than the eastern half, which can be inferred to be due to the influence of the Kanto basin movement and its inclination toward the northwest. Many valleys are carved on the edge of the plateau, and it seems that there is a history of many small irregularly shaped rice fields being created by taking advantage of the topography and good water use. This has nurtured a rich woodland close to the village (living area) environment. On the other hand, in the depths of the plateau, it seems that the village itself has been difficult to create due to poor water use, and it has been used as a wilderness or pasture. In the Meiji era, settlement began mainly among unemployed people, starting with the current Hatsutomi in Kamagaya City, Futawa (Funabashi City), Misaki (Funabashi City), Toyoshiki (Kashiwa City), Goka (Matsudo City). I heard that each place was named after the order of settlement. Currently, peanuts are one of the representative crops in Chiba prefecture, but they started to be produced mainly in Yachimata city (also named after the 8th settlement) from the middle of the Meiji era. In addition to this, cultivation of crops suitable for the soil, such as watermelon and sweet potato, has been promoted, and it now boasts one of the largest production volumes in Japan. Since then, the wave of development has led to the creation of large-scale residential areas represented by Chiba New Town during the period of high economic growth, as residential land has been converted into residential land not only with agricultural land but also with the subsequent construction of railways and highways. It seems that it was.), which occupies most of the area, gives the impression that various agricultural products, mainly vegetables, are produced. It is said that many kinds of vegetables such as green soybeans, spinach, spring chrysanthemum, Japanese honeywort, eggplant, green onion, cabbage, tomato, carrot, and radish are produced in the upland field in the central part of the Noda district. In the northern part of Sekiyado and Futakawa districts, dairy farming is actively carried out, and in the lowlands along the Tone and Edo rivers, rice cultivation and barley and soybean cultivation, which are crops of rice cultivation, are actively carried out. Among the many agricultural and livestock products produced, it is one of the leading edamame producing areas in Japan, and I heard that Noda City became the number one in Japan in terms of shipment value by municipality in 2002. In green soybeans making, we are promoting “environmental conservation type agriculture”, “eco-farmer certification”, “Chiba eco-agricultural products (prefecture) and more secure agricultural products (zen-noh) approval”. In rice cultivation, the city and JA are collaborating to brand “black vinegar rice” and rice produced in the Egawa district of Noda city while preparing a natural environment where storks can grow, looking ahead to the future. It seems that it is implementing a lot of advanced initiatives.  “black vinegar rice” is a specially cultivated rice with reduced pesticides, which is made by spraying brown rice black vinegar, which has a bactericidal action, instead of pesticides to protect the seedlings from illness. In the Kashiwa area, small turnips, which began to be made to meet the demand for pickles in downtown Tokyo during the Taisho era, became the number one in Japan in terms of production value, and are holding commercialization and events of pickles to further increase consumption. The “Kashiwa Small Turnip Study Group” was awarded the “Asahi Agricultural Award” in 1988 for its achievements in researching techniques that can be cultivated year-round and fostering production areas. Shoot (the part of the bud that forms at the base of the leaf pattern of Taro) is also one of the special products, and is known as the only production area in Japan. It is one of the leading producers of spinach and green onions in Japan, and the eastern part of Lake Teganuma is a rich rice-growing area.  I lived in this area about 35 years ago, and I can still think of a nostalgic scene. In addition, it is an area that is also focusing on the GAP (Good Agricultural Practices: In agriculture, production process management efforts to ensure the sustainability of food safety, environmental protection, occupational safety, etc. By incorporating this into many farmers and production areas in Japan, it will contribute to ensuring sustainability, strengthening competitiveness, improving quality, improving and improving efficiency of agricultural management, and earning the trust of consumers and actual consumers. Is expected to be secured.) system for cultivation management. The Nishi-funabashi area is a rapidly urbanized area, but agriculture is thriving. It produces spinach, tomatoes, cucumbers, etc., centering on Japanese mustard spinach and edamame, which were certified as the Funabashi brand in 2007. In the district, in addition to “attempts for the sixth industrialization such as processing and development of foods using local agricultural products” and “attempts to have food and products using komatsuna provided at restaurants in the city”, “environmentally” It is said that they are promoting the acquisition of qualifications such as friendly farmer (as recognized by law) and holding events. In 2013, “Type of rape powder”, which is a processed and powdered Japanese mustard spinach, was certified by the city as a “Funabashi product brand”. Funabashi City is located on the northeastern coast of Tokyo Bay, in the northwestern part of Chiba Prefecture. The land is generally flat, but the northern part of the hill is a hilly area with undulating hills, and the ground surface at the western end of the Shimousa Plateau is generally covered with dark brown organic soil, which is underneath the Kanto region. There is a layer of red soil called the loam layer, which is relatively blessed as an agricultural land. The climate is oceanic, facing Tokyo Bay, and even in the middle of winter, the average temperature exceeds 5 ° C and is relatively warm. In August, there are days when the temperature exceeds 30 ° C, but it seems to be a relatively warm climate throughout the year. The main agricultural products in the jurisdiction are komatsuna, spinach, Japanese honeywort, tomato, cucumber, the joint sales organization, and there are about 14 production items. These products are shipped mainly to the Funabashi market and seem to be aimed at local production for local consumption. In 2007, Komatsuna from Nishi-Funabashi became a Funabashi brand product, and edamame and other products are being shipped to the Ota market in Tokyo with the aim of branding. In addition, in order to supply safe, secure and fresh vegetables, the vegetable production and shipping associations in the jurisdiction are focusing on acquiring environmentally friendly farmer (as recognized by law) certification and certified farmers. However, I hear that the current situation is that the area of ​​cultivated land, the number of farm households, the amount of agricultural output, the agricultural income produced, etc. are all decreasing due to the shortage of successors and the fact that all the agricultural land is in the urbanized area. Located in the northwestern part of Chiba prefecture. In Kashiwa City, the reason why I was taken care of when I was a child. It was a city of memories and a land I dreamed of, although it was due to my father's work. It's nostalgic, and I can see the changing scenery like yesterday. The outline is that the distance from east to west is about 18 km, the distance from north to south is about 15 km, and the area is 114.74 km2. The terrain is generally flat, with urban areas and satoyama formed around the wide plateau of the Shimousa Upland（Hokuso Upland: It is one of the leading agricultural areas in Chiba prefecture. In particular, vegetable cultivation boasts one of the highest production in Japan. Many Yatsuda（paddy field at valley bottom）eroded in a dendritic manner from the surrounding area.）. 北部: 布施弁天, あけぼの山公園, 西部: 県立柏の葉公園, 東部: 手賀沼, 南部: カタクリ（Erythronium japonicum Decne.）（天然記念物; Natural Monument (Nationally Designated)）, 観音寺（牡丹; Peony）, 法林寺（大銀杏; Large Ginkgo）.トーランス市（アメリカ, 姉妹友好都市）, グアム（アメリカ, 姉妹友好都市）, キャムデン（オーストラリア, 姉妹友好都市）, 承徳市（中国, 姉妹友好都市）, つがる市（青森県, ふるさと交流都市）, 綾瀬市（神奈川県, 姉妹友好都市）, 只見町（福島県ふるさと交流都市）.「下陰をさがして呼ぶや親の馬」小林一茶氏, 小金原（松戸市）: 小金牧,「根芋」Shoot potatoes are soft-white cultivated taro buds. It is a precious vegetable cultivated only in Kashiwa City, and I have never seen it. We hope to see you again. During the Edo period, there was a lot of boating from Choshi in the Pacific Ocean, going up the Tone River via Sekiyado, going down the Edo River and heading for Edo Bay. However, there was a shallow water in a part of the “Edo River”, and large ships could not navigate, and it was said that it was a detour in terms of distance. In the Meiji era, the Tone River and the Edo River were short-circuited, and the Tone Canal was planned so that large ships could navigate. Construction began in 1888 and opened in 1890. Designed and directed by Dutch engineer Mr. Lowenhorst Murder. After the death of Mr. Seiichiro Hirose, a canal madman and hydraulic engineer. The Tone Canal has a total length of about 8.5 km and passes through the current three city areas of Kashiwa, Noda, and Nagareyama. The heyday of the canal was around 1910, and since the Taisho era, it has declined with the development of rail freight car transportation. After that, hydraulic control measures began to be taken, and in 1941, the canal was widened and the embankment was raised, and about 6,000 cherry blossom trees peculiar to Japan were cut down. The area along the canal around the “Canal Bridge” was developed as “Canal Waterside Park” in 1987, and is now surrounded by greenery and is a healing place for people who come for cycling or walking. In addition, about 150 cherry blossom trees are planted on both banks of this area, making it a famous place for cherry blossoms and vivid. Along the embankment, there are restaurants, sake breweries, and miso soy sauce shops that were founded in the Meiji and Taisho eras, and many people will feel the history of the canal. In 1911, the Chiba Prefectural Light Railroad (currently Tobu Railway) Noda Line, which connects Kashiwa and Noda, was opened with the investment of Noda's soy sauce brewer. The current “Canal Station” was opened near the intersection with the Tone Canal. Under the bridge, there is a coal storage yard where coal was transported by ship from the Joban area, where it was transshipped to railroad freight cars. 国指定有形文化財（建造物）: 旧吉田家住宅, 主屋, 書院, 新座敷, 長屋門, 向蔵, 新蔵, 道具蔵, 西門, 8棟, 花野井, 柏市, 平成22年12月14日, 国指定有形文化財（絵画）: 紙本墨画淡彩弄玉仙図, 岩佐勝, 以筆1巻, 柏市柏（千葉市美術館保管）, 公益財団法人摘水軒記念文化振興財団, 平成21年7月10日, 県指定有形文化財（建造物）: 東海寺本堂/ 楼門/ 鐘楼, 3棟, 布施, 東海寺, 平成18年3月14日, 県指定有形文化財（建造物）: 旧手賀教会堂, 1棟, 手賀, 柏市, 平成24年3月16日, 県指定有形文化財（絵画）: 聖画3面, 手賀, 日本ハリストス正教会手賀正教会, 平成24年3月16日, 県指定有形文化財（彫刻）: 木造大日如来坐像, 1躯, 松ケ崎, 覚王寺, 昭和50年3月28日, 県指定有形文化財（彫刻）: 木造阿弥陀如来坐像, 1躯, 増尾, 万福寺, 平成1年3月10日, 県指定有形文化財（彫刻）: 木造聖観世音菩薩坐像, 1躯, 柳戸, 弘誓院, 平成3年2月15日, 県指定有形文化財（歴史資料）: 妙法蓮華経板木（開結とも）, 51枚, 柳戸, 弘誓院, 平成12年2月25日, 県指定無形民俗文化財 : 篠籠田の獅子舞, 篠籠田（西光院）, 篠籠田三匹獅子舞保存会, 昭和50年12月12日, 県指定記念物（史跡）: 藤ケ谷十三塚, 藤ケ谷, 柏市, 昭和53年2月28日, 県指定記念物（史跡）: 北ノ作1/2号墳, 片山, 個人, 平成7年3月14日, 国登録有形文化財（建造物）: 伊藤家住宅主屋ほか, 6件, 増尾, 個人, 平成30年11月2日, 国登録有形文化財（建造物）: 染谷家住宅主屋ほか, 8件, 鷲野谷字稲荷内, 個人, 平成31年3月29日, 国登録記念物（名勝）: 旧吉田氏庭園, 花野井字原, 他, 柏市, 平成24年9月19日. “Abiko City”, At present, the oldest documentary “Abiko” that refers to the city of Abiko is the 1313 “尼しんねん譲り” (Miike document: Kashiwa City History Collection) at the end of the Kamakura Period. It is believed that the will on the inheritance of the land) says “Shitsusa no Kunihiko no Mura” (Abiko Village, Shimousa Province). This shows that the city area was called “Abiko” at least in the Kamakura period. According to official documents from the Nara and Heian Periods before that, it was called “Soma District, Shimousa”, and the place name Abiko was not confirmed. In ancient times, “Abiko” was like a family name or surname (kabane), which is related to bloodlines and occupations, and seems to have been used as a personal name. Although the notation is different, the records of the people “阿毘古” and “我孫公” are left. Okimi and the influential tribes of the Yamato region, who had great power in the Japanese archipelago during the Kofun Period (3rd to 7th centuries), took control of the local tribes in each region and lived there under the direct control of abundant land. There is a history of having people pay tribute. At that time, it is speculated that the land and the people living there were named “Abiko”. This is probably the reason why place names and personal names such as “我孫子”, “安孫子”, and “吾孫子” are recognized all over the country, including Osaka and Nara Prefecture. The Suijinyama tumulus (Mt. Kouya, a 69-meter-long front-rear tumulus in the latter half of the 4th century. The largest tumulus in the northwestern part of Chiba prefecture) was built in Abiko. An archaeological excavation was conducted by the University of Tokyo in 1965, and swords and glass tube balls and small balls were excavated. It is thought that there was a person who was connected to the Yamato administration from the early Kofun Period, so it is not left as a letter, but it is thought that the place name was given because of the deep connection with Okimi and the Yamato administration. Abiko in Chiba Prefecture is about 20 m above sea level, the longest north-south extension is about 4 km, the east-west extension is about 14 km, and the area is about 43.15 km2. Geographically, it is located in the northwestern part of Chiba prefecture, with Inzai city in the east, Kashiwa city across Teganuma in the south and west, Tone river in the north, Toride city in Ibaraki prefecture, and Tone town in Kitasoma district. It becomes a long and narrow horseback-shaped land sandwiched between Teganuma and the Tone River, and the nostalgic scenery passes through my head. Abiko Town, Fusa Town, and Kohoku Village merged into Abiko Town in April 1955, and the city system came into effect in July 1970. Blessed with abundant water and greenery, it is about 40 km from the city center and a short distance of 35 minutes on the Joban Line. The role of people who commute to the metropolitan area as a residential area has increased, and my best friend also lives with his beautiful wife. 竹内神社例大祭; 布佐: 令和2年2月28日指定, 第18号- Every year on September 14th, the festival is held for three days, including the holiday of Respect for the Aged Day. There is one shrine portable shrine, and one float and one children's portable shrine in each town. There are many attractions to entertain residents and tourists, such as the shrine where the portable shrine descends down the precincts of Takeuchi Shrine and the float competition where all the floats gather. The designated finding is A part of the appearance of the town (river bank) that prospered from the early modern period to the modern era in the Fusa area of Abiko city is well conveyed to the present, and it is still the most grand festival in Abiko city, and it is the duty town. It is maintained on a rotating basis. It comes from the viewpoint that it is worth making it a city-designated cultural property as an intangible folk cultural property of the city in telling the history. 白樺文学館; 緑; Shirakaba Literary Museum; Green-From the Taisho era to the early Showa period, Abiko was famous for having many prominent cultural figures such as Mr. Naoya Shiga, Mr. Saneatsu Mushanokoji, Mr. Soetsu Yanagi, and Mr. Bernard Leach（Famous as an English ceramist, he contributed to the establishment of the Japan Folk Crafts Museum.）. It takes root in the area as a recommended spot related to history. 白樺派 : It is known as one of the literary thoughts that took place around the douujinshi “Shirakaba (Shiga wrote in his diary that Mr. Saneatsu Mushanokoji and Mr. Naoya Shiga discussed the publication)”, which was first published in 1910. Also, the writers who are thought to have shared that philosophy and style. Among the main members of the Shirakabaha school, Mr. Takeo Arishima（生まれ出づる悩み; Trouble born）, Rigen Kinoshita（紅玉, 一路; Kogyoku（Jonathan Apple）, Starlight）, Mr. Ton Satomi（極楽とんぼ; An easygoing fellow（Gokuraku Tombo））, Mr. Soetsu Yanagi（木喰行道, 妙好人; Mokujiki Gyodo, Myokonin）, Mr. Torahiko Kori（萱野二十一, 道成寺, 秋夕夢; Hatakazu Kayano, Doseiji（Kindle）, Chuseok dream）, Mr. Yoshiro Nagayo（青銅の基督; Bronze Governor）, and Mr. Saneatsu Mushanokoji（荒野, お目出たき人, 人間万歳, 真理先生, 新しき村; Wilderness, people who come out, hurray humans, Teacher truth, new village）are believed to have been ideological central figures. Although it was discontinued in August 1923, it was missed as a literary magazine and art magazine. City Flower: Azalea, Established on July 1, 1970 : Since it is popular with Sakura and resistant to heat and cold, it was designated as a symbol of the growing city on the anniversary of the enforcement of the city system. City Tree: Zelkova, Established on July 1, 1970 : The figure of the tree that rises toward the sky and grows is designated as the anniversary of the enforcement of the city system as an image of the future of the city. “Noda City”, The area is 103.55 km2, and topographically, the Tone River and the Edo River branch off at the northernmost tip of the city, and the Tone River to the east, the Edo River to the west, and the Tone Canal to the south surround the river on three sides. It is about 60 km around this embankment, and it is well known as a natural environment that is ideal for walking and jogging as a cycling course. Form a town rich in history, culture and nature. Looking back on history, the northern part prospered around the castle of the Sekiyado Domain, which had a river barrier as the gateway to the big city of Edo, and the southern part was the soy sauce brewing industry that supported the food culture of “Edokko” along with agriculture. In addition, the soy sauce brewing industry has developed, and even now, the urban area is dotted with buildings from the Taisho Era to the early Showa Period, and it is very emotional. In addition, there is a memorial hall that honors former Prime Minister Mr. Kantaro SUZUKI, who led the Pacific War to the end, and Mr. Kinjiro SEKINE, the 13th master of modern shogi, who has established a system of talented masters. The Edo Shogunate placed great importance on Sekiyado Castle and placed Fudai Daimyo in Sekiyado for generations. It is well known that the feudal lord lasted for eight families and 23 generations until the end of the Edo period. Among them, Mr. Kuze's reign was the longest, and he occupied an important position in the shogunate as he took important positions such as the old and middle ages. Sekiyado Castle in the Edo period hardly exists, but there is a “Chiba Prefectural Sekiyado Castle Museum” that imitates the castle tower, and I have visited it several times. While introducing the history of river improvement and water transportation under the theme of the history of the clan and “Rivers and related industries,” it is an important facility for exhibiting materials related to the people in the basin and the rivers and learning about their hometown. Mr. Kantaro SUZUKI was born in Fuseo, Izumi Province (currently Sakai City, Osaka Prefecture), the eldest son of the Sekiyado Domain, Yutetsu SUZUKI（His maiden name is Mr. KURAMOCHI, commonly known as Tamenosuke.）-Ko, and returned to Sekiyado in 1872. It seems that he moved to. In 1923, he was admiral of the Navy, and later served as Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Fleet and Chamberlain of Emperor Showa. He was appointed Prime Minister on April 7, 1945, leading the Pacific War to the end of the war, and although he was in office for only four months, he returned to Sekiyado after a major role and lived a quiet life. In his hometown, it is a famous story that he started the “Agriculture Study Group” focusing on dairy farming using grass on the riverbed and held lectures by specialized lecturers by taking advantage of the characteristics of the area. Therefore, Noda City is still active in dairy farming and takes root in the area. The “Kantaro Memorial Hall” was opened in 1963 to widely introduce the achievements of the old man, and many relics such as formal wear and daily life items are exhibited, fascinating as a valuable museum. Mr. Sekine has been a strong shogi player since he was a child, and by the time he entered elementary school, he had no match for the locals. At the age of 11, he moved to Tokyo with the aim of becoming a professional shogi player, and after repeated training, he was promoted to 4th dan in 1891 and 8th dan in 1905. It was around this time that the third match with Sankichi Sakata, who became the model for the movie “Osho（VS, Mr. Sankichi SAKATA; 吹けば飛ぶよな, 将棋の駒に: コロムビアレコード; If you blow it, it will fly, to the piece of shogi: Columbia Record, The lyrics are Mr. Yaso Saijo, the composition is Mr. Tooru FUNAMURA, and the song is Mr. Hideo MURATA, released in November 1961.）”. This is a Japanese movie released on October 18, 1948, and it is no longer produced. In 1921, after becoming a 13th generation master at the age of 53, he abolished the hereditary system and the whole life master system that had continued for 340 years, and established a championship master system. He laid the foundation for the prosperity of today's shogi world, such as establishing the Japan Shogi Taiseikai, the predecessor of the current Japan Shogi Association, and is widely known as the “father of modern shogi.” As an information dissemination base for shogi, the “關根 Meijin Memorial Hall” constantly displays about 40 items related to masters, and holds about 2,400 books on shogi from the Edo Period to the present day. Next to the memorial hall, there is a 52 tatami mat room where anyone can easily point to shogi, which is unbearable for fans. Knowledge Soy Sauce Museum : At the museum opened by “KIKKOMAN” in the factory, you can enjoy learning about the color, taste, and aroma of soy sauce while observing the factory until the soy sauce is made. 野田市教育委員会（鶴奉） 2021 “令和2年度 野田市内遺跡発掘調査報告” : 上野馬込遺跡, 第15次（花井新田字三丁歩）, 宅地造成, 集落, 古墳/ 近世(細分不明) 時代. 山崎貝塚周辺遺跡, 第25次, 分譲宅地, 集落, 縄文時代, 縄文時代土器. 中野台貝塚, 第5次/ 本調査（字行人谷）, 個人住宅, 貝塚, 縄文時代, 縄文時代竪穴建物1, 土坑, Pit, 縄文時代: 土器, 縄文時代:　石器. 岡部館跡（山崎字梅台）, 宅地造成, 城館, 中世(細分不明), 近世(細分不明) 時代, 古墳時代土坑1, 縄文時代土器, 石器, 古墳時代中期土師器. 東新田野馬土手（山崎字殿山）, 戸建分譲, 中世(細分不明), 近世(細分不明) 時代, 中世～近世野馬堀1. 山崎貝塚周辺遺跡, 第26次, 個人, 集落, 縄文. 岩名新屋敷遺跡（字宮田）, 個人住宅, 縄文/ 中世(細分不明), 近世(細分不明) 時代, 中近世溝1, 縄文時代土器, 中近世土師質土器. 溜井遺跡, 第4次（吉春字溜井）, 駐車場, 縄文/ 中世(細分不明), 近世(細分不明) 時代, 中近世塚1. “Brassica rapa subsp. rapa”: 蕪 : An annual of Brassicaceae Brassica: The region of Afghanistan and southern Europe along the Mediterranean coast is said to be the place of origin. In Japan, it's said that it was introduced from the continent during the Yayoi period, and the description of cultivation can be found in “Nippon Shoki”.（She was Emperess Jito.）Unique varieties are grown in many regions and are now widely used in temperate regions of the world. It is said that the history of small turnips in Kashiwa City, Chiba Prefecture goes back to the Taisho era, and it has become established as a cash crop in the Toyoshiki district of Kashiwa City, which was a cultivated land, in order to meet the demand for pickles in downtown Tokyo. turnip; Brassica campestris: 春の七草の一つに数え「すずな(菘、鈴菜)」と言われている。寒い時期ほど,甘味がより強くなる傾向: It is one of the seven spring herbs and is said to be “Suzuna”. The colder the season, the stronger the sweetness tends to be. 白部分（Amylase（digestive enzymes） digests one of the carbohydrates, starch. The turnip root is particularly abundant.）は, 淡色野菜として, 葉部分は, 緑黄色野菜に分類される。中でも千葉県は, 評価が高い有数産地である。The isothiocyanate or the isothiocyanate derivative is allyl isothiocyanate or an allyl isothiocyanate derivative.（Japan Patent Office）Obtained by replacing an oxygen atom with a sulfur atom.（Allyl isothiocyanate, AITC: C4H5NS）GSL（glucosinolate）is a precursor of isothiocyanates, which are attracting attention for their anticancer activity by activating detoxification enzymes in the liver and the like. It's an accumulated double bond compound and is also classified as an organic sulfur compound. It's said that there are more than 100 types of phenethyl isothiocyanate and sulforaphane in nature and it is very abundant. In particular, sulforaphane is considered to have an effect of preventing carcinogenesis and tumorigenesis and decomposing carcinogens, and is regarded as a cancer preventive component. The most important ingredient in the turnip part is that it contains diastase.
