Kanji is a Japanese culture and is the basis of intellectual learning. It seems that Ashikita Town uses the Kanji test as a means of embodying its educational philosophy. In order to firmly establish Kanji skills and foster learning motivation, from 2013, all junior high school students in the town will be newly paid the test of kanji skills 5th class or abovegrade or higher examination fee up to once a year at public expense. Introduced the system. The learning method varies from school to school, but students voluntarily study Chinese characters during the morning hours and after school. After introducing the examination fee subsidy system and actively encouraging students to take the examination, almost all junior high school students in the town took the examination in the first year of the introduction. It seems that the purpose is not to get a grade, but I hear that passing the exam increases motivation for learning. Educators want to continue their efforts and improve their Kanji skills and, by extension, their Japanese proficiency by providing opportunities for students who are not good at kanji or who are not interested in kanji. It seems that the chief executive is thinking. In the future, I hope that the circle of Kanji certification will spread not only to students but also to the general public.

In the persimmon, a streak called a streak (from the apex to the equator, innumerable linear or spider web-like cracks occur, some of which turn blackish brown and become wavy) is formed on the pericarp. There are varieties. Varieties such as “Fuyu”, “Hiratanenashi”, and “Jiro” do not have stripes, but the new variety “Taishu” seems to be prone to stripes. It is a large fruit and has a very good taste, so it is expected to spread, but the striped pattern may be confused with a dirty fruit and evaluated as a fruit with a poor appearance. The NARO Fruit Tree Experiment Station Persimmon / Grape Branch Breeding Laboratory seems to have discovered that the sugar content of fruits with stripes is high in the process of breeding research so far. Therefore, it seems that selecting strains that produce stripes may be a strategy for cultivating high-sugar varieties.

The fruit is remarkably large at about 320g, and the flesh is soft and juicy and has a high taste, so it is expected to be widely spread in the sweet persimmon production area, and it seems that it was named.

【Features】

The biggest feature of JA Ashikita seems to be active product development and marketing. The Ashikita region of Kumamoto prefecture, where the JA is located, is the southernmost part of Kumamoto prefecture, which borders Kagoshima prefecture. It seems to be new. However, it became the top production area in Japan with the introduction of Amanatsu oranges, which took advantage of the warm climate, and then Dekopon. In addition, I heard that the onions “Saratama-chan（It features a crispy texture. As a commitment, it is said that it is made by suppressing the use of chemical pesticides and fertilizers to 50% of the customary level in Kumamoto Prefecture. All producers are certified as environmentally friendly farmer (as recognized by law) (farmers certified by the Governor of Kumamoto Prefecture based on the “Act on Promotion of Introduction of Sustainable Agricultural Production Methods”).）” and “Ashikita beef（Japanese black beef, which has benefited from nature in the mountainous areas of JA jurisdiction and has been fattened with love, is not only shipped to Kumamoto Prefecture and the Kansai region throughout the year, but also sold at the local “Farmers Market Dekopon”. It seems that they are also working on erasing. Most of them seem to have received the title of “Wao”, a premium brand of beef Kumamoto and Japanese black beef. Known as marbled beef with a safe and secure taste.）”, which are less spicy, have distinctive production areas. In the processing of agricultural products, it seems that there is a manufacture and sale of JA mark “union noodles” that started in 1950 and continued until 2007. It was sold in all prefectures of Kumamoto, Kagoshima and Miyazaki, and part of Fukuoka, Saga and Oita, but it is said that it is manufactured and sold by itself (sixth industrialization). It goes back to last summer, but was damaged by the heavy rain in Kumamoto in July 2020. Due to the torrential rain from July 3rd to 4th, debris flow and flooding of rivers caused serious damage to houses, farmlands, business establishments, etc. in JA Ashikita jurisdiction. The JA set up a disaster response headquarters on July 5, and worked to support the damaged union members and restore the functions of each business site. Now, let's take a look at the characteristics of the jurisdiction, though it is simple. “Ashikita Town, Ashikita District, Kumamoto Prefecture”, Located in the southern part of the prefecture.

After that, he started dancing in Sometake District and is still inherited. There was a chain under my daughter's smooth oriental photinia. Currently, we are careful not to get injured. Stick dances are performed in various places, and episodes related to them are also handed down in each area（Minamata / Ashikita region）. “平国六方踊り”, It is rare in the prefecture that expresses a story.

The place name of Minamata appears in the record at the Engi ceremony (905-927). And it is said that Minamata and Nioh had a house. It is presumed that it was a transportation hub from that time.

Among them, the yellow fruit that shines in the green- Amanatsu (Citrus natsudaidai). It has been cultivated since 1949 and remains as a traditional village nationwide. The taste is refreshing, sweet and sour, and the bitterness is pleasant. “Marmalade” made using leather: Jelly using pulp, dressing using whole fruit, etc. Processed products are also unique to the Ashikita and Minamata area. JA Ashikita has few flatlands and many coves in the Shiranui Sea, where the rias-style hills approach the coastline.  The climate is warm and fruit trees are cultivated on slopes. Aiming to establish the Taura brand, it was first sold in 1991 and became the main agricultural product. “(Taishu) persimmon”, which focuses on production, is said to be “A persimmon a day keeps the doctor away.” It is said to be very good for the body. In 1977, it was a variety made with “Fuyu” as a parent, and was registered as a variety in 1995. It is a perfect sweet persimmon that ripens at the same time as “Wase Matsumoto Fuyu” and has a very good taste. Some sweet persimmons, such as “Wase Nishimura（The birthplace of “Shimosakamoto district, Otsu city, Shiga prefecture”, which prospered as a gate town, was registered by the second generation Mr. Yazo in 1960. “Wase” refers to a variety of persimmons that ripen relatively early compared to other persimmons from late September to early October. It is considered to be an incomplete sweet persimmon, and if a large amount of seeds are added, the sweetness is strong, and if it is small, the astringency remains, so it may be de-astringent. When a pattern like “black sesame” is added to the flesh, it is evidence that the astringency is removed and the sweetness is further increased. It is rounded and the pericarp is pale orange with a glossy finish. The flesh is reasonably firm and the juice is sufficient. Since it is a seedling that occurred in the hedge of the “Fuyu persimmon” cultivation garden that pollinated “red persimmon”, it has the gene of perfect sweet oyster, and when it is crossed with perfect sweet oyster, it is a child of perfect sweet oyster. However, it seems that it has been presumed that it may occur. （Application of）chemometrics（計量化学（応用））, Svante Wold 1971: 瑞, Umeå universitet）The Formation of Fruiting Mother Shoot from Water Shoot by Pinching in Japanese Persimmon cv. 'Nishimura-Wase'）‘Wase Nishimura’ persimmon is one of the important cultivars for commercial culture in Japan. ‘Wase Nishimura’ tends to bear many more staminate flowers but fewer pistillate flowers with age or weakening of tree vigor, which causes decrease yield. Although there was no difference in the numbers of flowers among pinching date, pinching in early May is more recommended, because the percentage of summer shoots sprouted from water shoots is higher than that of after late May. There was no difference in the fruit quality among experimental plots. Based on these findings, pinching water shoots from May to June could be applied to form fruiting mother shoots for the next year.）”, are said to be incomplete sweet persimmons, and it seems that the astringency cannot be removed without seeds, but “Taishu” is mature except for those cultivated in cold regions. When I did, the astringency seemed to be gone. “Taishu” is characterized by its crispy and soft meat and a large amount of fruit juice. The size of the fruit is about 400g, which is about 1.5 times larger than that of “Fuyu”, and sometimes it seems that minute cracks called “strips” are likely to occur on the top of the fruit. It tends to be disliked because it has a bad appearance, but the part where the “strip pattern” is formed has a sugar content of about 2 to 3% higher than other parts, so the taste is excellent. Okute's “Fuyu”, which matures in mid-November, accounts for about 60% of Japan's sweet persimmon production, and it seems that price declines due to concentration of harvesting and shipping labor and concentration of shipping volume are problems. To deal with this, we created the fascination of Nakate's sweet persimmon “Taishu”, which is high quality and easy to cultivate. Regarding cultivation, it can be cultivated west of Chiba prefecture on the Pacific side and west of Niigata prefecture on the Sea of ​​Japan side, but avoid cultivation because astringency may remain in cold regions where the summer temperature does not rise sufficiently. Better. It seems that male flowers tend to have more epiphytes and female flowers have less epiphytes. In order to increase the number of female flowers, it is necessary to maintain strong tree vigor and to adopt a pruning method that produces strong shoots, and it seems that the pruning method that puts a strongly cut back branch is effective. It seems that the stripes can reduce the occurrence and blackening by preventing the fruits from becoming excessively enlarged in autumn and by improving the ventilation in the canopy. Last but not least, let me introduce you to a special persimmon. In Mashiki Town, Kamimashiki District, Kumamoto Prefecture, a luxury brand persimmon called “Cinderella Taishu” is widely known. A variety called Taishu persimmon was cultivated in a house, which is rare for persimmons, with a lot of time and effort. Minimize water and fertilizer, stress persimmons and concentrate nutrients on fruits. It seems that the name comes from the fact that it can withstand bullying (stress) and become a shining persimmon. The variety was officially registered in 1995, and its actual texture is crispy, and it seems to be described as a pear-like texture. The sugar content, which is said to be the sweetest of all Japanese persimmons, is over 20 degrees. Stay tuned!

The maturity period is early November, which is the same period as “Wase Matsumoto Fuyu”, and it is said that it can be harvested one to two weeks earlier than “Fuyu（1820年（文政3年）に, 美濃国（岐阜（県））大野郡居倉村（瑞穂市居倉）の小倉ノブ氏が,『居倉』「御所柿（奈良県御所市原産）」を, 圃場に植樹されたのが, 始まりと聞いている）”. The tree vigor and the size of the tree are medium, and the appearance of the tree seems to be between open and upright. The disease resistance and insect resistance are medium, and it seems that no particular problematic pests have been found. The settling of female flowers is less than that of the persimmon mentioned earlier, but the physiological fruit drop is less, and it seems that the yield comparable to that of “Wase Matsumoto Fuyu” can be obtained. 

As an aside, joint cultivation is a method of connecting seedlings with grafts in a straight line.  Harvesting is expected at an early stage, and it seems to have the advantage of being able to manage and harvest without using a stepladder. クエン酸: C(OH)(CH2COOH)2COOH: C6H8O7; When energy is taken up by the living body, it decomposes through various processes to become a substance called acetyl-coa (active acetic acid), which binds to Oxaloacetic acid（C4H4O5）. Later, it transforms into seven types of acids and returns to citric acid.

Effective against lactic acid, which is the source of stiff shoulders and muscle fatigue.

At the time of 1949, the crops in this region were mainly rice and wheat, and the sales were outsourced to the general agricultural cooperative, and the potatoes and peanuts were sold by the traders. Immediately after demobilization from Siberia, Mr. Masaji Teshima (founder of the union and the first union leader) was worried about the current situation where taro and sweet potatoes were being bought and beaten by middlemen, and as a result of trying to jointly ship to the Tokyo market with several volunteers. The starting point of the union was the result beyond imagination. The following year, in 1950, he formed the voluntary union “Maruasa Union”. As we gradually expanded our comrades, we increased the types and production of vegetables. In 1951, the number of people was 27, but in 1964, it developed into an organization with more than 700 people, centered on Shibayama Town and spread over one neighboring city and five towns. Therefore, in order to maintain external credit and sound management, the “Maruasa Horticultural Agricultural Cooperative” was born with the aim of incorporating the union, and continues to this day. Received an award from the Governor of Chiba Prefecture for shipping edible sweet potatoes in 1956. Received an award from the Tokyo Metropolitan Central Wholesale Market and the Kanda Market Deliverables Trading Committee for the shipment of taro. In 1958, he was commended by the Governor of Chiba Prefecture for his excellent achievements in joint shipping of fruits and vegetables. There are 16 branches and 548 union members. Many prize cups have been awarded from each market, including the Chiba Governor's Prize Cup. The metric system (developed in ancient Egypt, China, India, etc. in France in 1795, and systematically transmitted to Japan from China and Korea, is the measurement of the old Japanese system of weights, ahead of each production area in Japan. It seems that the unit was created. It was introduced to Greece and Rome from around ancient Egypt, and in Europe it was further developed along with the metric system using Arabic numbers) complete implementation was carried out.

Chiba Prefecture has a thriving vegetable production, and many winter items such as carrots, Japanese white radishes, Chinese cabbage, and lettuce arrive in the store. It also seems to sell processed products such as side dishes made by producers. “Shoika-go Chiba Store” is a farm products direct sales office operated by the Chiba Mirai Agricultural Cooperative, located in Wakaba Ward, Chiba City. It's been 16 years since it opened in 2005, and it seems that sales are steadily increasing every year. It seems that more than 1000 registered producers ship to the largest sales floor area in the prefecture every season. Among them, it seems that about 600 people are always shipping. The area inside the jurisdiction is a production area for seasonal cultivation, and tomatoes are planted in midsummer, so it seems that no fertilizer is used. As a commitment to taste, it seems that they are producing “Momotaro York Tomato（From Takii & Co., Ltd. (Headquarters location: Shimogyo Ward, Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture), it is easier to make stable fertilizer absorption in house-controlled cultivation, and there are few abnormal main stems. The shape of the fruit is high and the flesh is hard. The enlargement from the lower stage is good, and the fruit weight is a large ball of about 220 to 230 g. It seems to be recommended for low-stage dense planting. It has good flower quality and longevity, and has excellent high-temperature fruit set. There are few chucks and deformed fruits, and the excellent product rate is high.

Although it takes a lot of time to cultivate, it is suitable for fruit tomatoes and is famous as a variety that becomes very delicious around October.

Maruasa Horticultural Agricultural Cooperative was established in 1964 as one of the few agricultural cooperatives in Japan that specializes in shipping and selling agricultural products. Since then, with the philosophy of delivering safe, secure and delicious agricultural products to consumers, the union members have been working together to innovate and improve production technology. More than 57 years have passed since its birth, and the crops produced have become more in line with the times, gradually shifting from earthenware such as taro to fruits and vegetables, and the current main items are watermelon, carrots, tomatoes, and so on. It seems to be a pumpkin. In addition, the Maruasa Horticultural Agricultural Cooperative, which has made history as a vegetable cooperative, seems to have tried to introduce new flowers with the support of the new production area development project in Chiba Prefecture in 1992. Since then, the flower production has made remarkable progress by utilizing the original production technology cultivated with vegetables, and it is said that the number of members has exceeded 50. On the other hand, regarding the main vegetables, in 1998, it seems that they have been trying to strengthen the system by constructing a large fruit sorting plant for carrots and tomatoes in anticipation of labor saving and future scale expansion. In addition to safety and security, it seems that they are working to further establish the MARUASA brand, such as improving the sugar content of watermelon, which is the main product, and improving the nutritional value of carrots. As one of the leading vegetable producing areas in Chiba prefecture, it has developed with gourds, carrots, tomatoes, etc. as the pillars of management. Was launched. Since then, despite starting from scratch, the track record has steadily increased, and as a result of year-round cultivation while importing bulbs from New Zealand in the mainstay Sandersonia, it has been highly evaluated as the number one producer in Japan in terms of both quality and quantity. It seems that it became. In addition, aiming to be the number one producer in Japan after Sandersonia, we have been cultivating “Zantedeschia（The megaphone-shaped part is derived from the fact that it resembles the collar part of a shirt. The shape is also associated with the nun's collar. Native to South Africa, this species is a perennial of the Araceae family and is said to have been introduced from the Netherlands during the Edo period. The leaves are rooted and the flowers form yellow inflorescences surrounded by Buddhist bracts.）” since 1999, which has good flowering and enjoys a variety of flower colors. Others are Leucocoryne (Glory of the Sun), sunflowers, Dahlia pinnata, and more than 25 items are cultivated, and all items are co-selected and co-sold. Watermelon is the main variety of all Maruasa union items, and is based on these three criteria: sweetness that spreads in the mouth with a bite, meat quality is fine and crispy, and refreshing flavor and juicy flesh. Aiming for a delicious watermelon, it seems to be popular as a watermelon brand that has been created by carefully managing the watermelon according to the weather so that it grows healthy every year, from soil preparation to fertilizer application and seedling production. I heard that there are various varieties such as the large varieties Maruasa Watermelon, the small varieties “Maruasa Little Watermelon”, the black-skinned varieties “Black Pearl” and the small varieties “Hitorijime Bon Bon”. In order to create a better watermelon, we conduct trial production tests of new varieties every year, and when the cultivation of watermelon begins, we rent a field of watermelon producers and hold on-site workshops and cultivation workshops to improve quality. Seems to be there. In addition, the quality of watermelon cannot be determined from its appearance. Therefore, it is said that they are making efforts to ship watermelon that has sufficient sweetness and a good texture (crispy texture) by conducting a thorough quality inspection before shipping. I also heard that a laser non-destructive inspection machine can be used. Now, I would like to explain the details here. In the union, the first union leader was worried that the main crop of the region, potatoes, was being bought cheaply by middlemen after the war, and he and several volunteers jointly shipped to the Tokyo market and achieved results. With that as a starting point, the fellows gathered to increase the variety and shipment of vegetables, and in 1964, the current Maruasa Horticultural Agricultural Cooperative was established. The main items are autumn / winter carrots / spring carrots, tomatoes / cherry tomatoes, large ball squid, small ball squid, pumpkin (chestnut hydrangea; Kuriaji squash), and also produce potatoes, leaves, cucumbers, green onions, etc. In addition, since 1992, flowers have been introduced, and 40 union members are steadily increasing their production. I heard that autumn-winter carrots are cultivated by adding fertilizers containing minerals to normal fertilizers in order to increase their nutritional value. In the nutritional analysis in 2014, the nutritional analysis index cultivated only with normal fertilizer was set to 100, and as a result of comparison with mineral cultivation, β-carotene 112, calcium 108, potassium 125, iron 124, zinc 107, with high nutritional value. It seems there was. It can be seen that it has a very high nutritional value. In addition, it seems that all the producers who ship to Maruasa Horticultural Agricultural Cooperative grow minerals, which increases the added value as a production area and makes the transaction at a high price. It seems that the union members are also members of the General Agricultural Cooperative (JA Sanbu-gun City and JA Tomisato City in the vicinity of Shibayama Town). It seems that the price of the agricultural products shipped to the Maruasa Horticultural Agricultural Cooperative is transferred to the producer account of the General Agricultural Cooperative. The vegetable sorting facility (BIG SUN) was set up with a carrot and tomato sorting facility in 1997 in anticipation of labor saving and future scale expansion, and it seems that full-scale operation started in 1998. It seems that the fruit sorting machine was updated in 2012. The site area is 9980 m2 and the total floor area of ​​the building is 5681 m2. According to the results of FY2018, 128,000 cases of spring carrots, 800,000 cases of winter carrots, and 200,000 cases of summer and autumn tomatoes were shipped. One of the features of this fruit sorting plant is that if the carrots harvested from the field by the producer are brought into a flexible container bag or container with soil, they will be washed and sorted, and small carrots will be 3 or 5 for mass retailers. It can even be packed in bags, and large carrots for school meals, processing and business use are packed in boxes of 10 kg each with an automatic boxing machine. With the improvement of the fruit sorting plant, it is no longer necessary to perform cleaning and boxing, which was once done by the producers themselves, the labor of the producers has been greatly reduced, and further improvements have been made so that the producers can concentrate on cultivation. I heard that it became. The varieties to be cultivated are divided into those that are harvested within the year and those that are harvested at the beginning of the year, and are called “Aiko（From Sumika Agrotech Co., Ltd. (Headquarters location: Koraibashi, Chuo Ward, Osaka City, Osaka, Sumitomo Chemical Group), a large yield of a fat type with a good buttock. It is a good-looking variety because the skin is inconspicuous and the skin quality is beautiful. The meat is tender and juicy, so it is a delicious variety that is also suitable for salads and juices.）”. The varieties to be harvested at the beginning of the year are “Raimu（From Yokohama Ueki Co., Ltd. (Headquarters location: Karasawa, Minami Ward, Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture), it is famous as a Nakate variety exclusively for summer sowing. The grass is vigorous and has excellent cold resistance, and it seems to be strong against Alternaria dauci (Kühn) Groves et Skolko. I heard that the grass is upright and easy to manage. The root shape is slightly curved and has a cylindrical shape on the shoulder, and it has a good buttock clogging. The root color is dark and the core color is good, the skin is very smooth and shiny, and it seems to be beautifully washed. It has a strong suction property and is not easily damaged by frost on the shoulder, so it seems that there is little rot from cracks. I heard that the emergence of new roots in spring is slow, there are few cracks, and the roots are excellent in the field, and the taste is sweet and flavorful, and it is very delicious.）” and “Reimei（Similarly, from Yokohama Ueki Co., Ltd., a Wase species that can also be used for summer sowing. There is little untimely moss extraction in tunnel cultivation and outdoor cultivation in cool regions. The root shape has good shoulder flesh and buttock clogging, is well aligned, and seems to have excellent stability. It seems to be a variety with a dark core color, smooth skin, gloss, and a beautiful package after washing. The grass is a little vigorous, and the petiole is short and compact. It is strong against Brown-blotted Root Rot and Alternaria dauci, and has excellent cold resistance of leaves in autumn and winter crops, so it seems to be ideal for mechanical harvesting. There are few cracks, and it seems to be excellent in fieldability and difficult to swell. Since the suction property is average, it seems to prevent the occurrence of Japanese white by gathering soil.）”, which are resistant to frost and have solid leaves, and it seems that they have introduced varieties that can be harvested with a harvester. It may seem that there is not much difference in sowing time between year-end harvest and new-year harvest, but it seems that the growth speed will change depending on the difference in day. Regarding measures against unseasonable weather, it seems that cultivation management is difficult due to heavy rains and typhoons. I also hear that it is necessary to cultivate different patterns every year. In a typhoon, small ones are damaged by salt, but it seems that it is necessary to make efforts to grow those that have grown to some extent. It seems that there is a difference in growth with a single sheet of paper due to the slight difference in the planting time. It seems that organic compost is used for cultivation. The union determines the ratio of compost and minerals to a fixed amount per 10 ares. It seems that compost is made by mixing cow dung, pig dung, and rice husks and fermenting them sufficiently. It seems that they are engaged in circular farming in the region, where they hand over their own rice husks to livestock farmers and receive rice husk compost. However, I heard that there are many agricultural lands that are not cultivated because there is no successor. It seems that there are various people who do not want to rent the fields and those who want to cultivate them, but producers say that it is necessary to take measures for effective use of agricultural land as a region. What is the significance of agricultural cooperatives? Help farmers solve various problems and problems that farmers have in farming, such as how to make and sell agricultural products. Sales business: Collects agricultural products made by farmers and sells them to markets at a favorable price for farmers. Purchasing business: By systematically purchasing fertilizers, pesticides, and other items necessary for agriculture and living, we sell good items to farmers and people in the jurisdiction at low prices. Credit business: I work as a bank that can withdraw and lend money from farmers and people in the area when they need it. Mutual Aid Business: We are creating a system where everyone can share and save money so that they can use it in the event of an illness, accident, or disaster. In addition, there are processing businesses that process agricultural products, welfare businesses that protect the health of people in the jurisdiction, elderly welfare businesses that support the lives of the elderly, and tourism businesses that deal with travel. “Yatsugashira（The parent potato and the child potato are not separated and become a lump）” seems to be centered in the Kanto region, such as Chiba and Ibaraki prefectures. It starts to appear around November and reaches the season from mid - December before the New Year. Normally, taro is grown from seed potatoes. First, a parent potato is formed on the seed potato, and a number of child potatoes are usually shunted from the parent potato, and then a grandchild potato is shunted from the child potato. Red taro stems (Yatsugashira Imo) It is often used as a lucky charm for osechi dishes, with the hope that it will become the “head” of people and “prosperity of descendants” due to the increasing nature of “八”, which spreads toward the end, and the increasing number of parents, children, and grandchildren.

The “petiole” that connects the leaves and stems of taro and colocasia gigantea is called the “stem of taro” and is eaten as a simmered dish. Depending on the type of potato, there are various names such as red taro and green taro stems. This Yatsugashiraimo “red taro stems” is the most distributed. 九面芋: Yatsugashiraimo and Karaimo; Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) are similar in mutation and are very close varieties, and since they were established as varieties in BC, it seems that it cannot be determined which one comes first. Great expectations for strengthening bones and teeth, suppressing nerve excitement, suppressing blood pressure rise, and promoting digestion.

Chi-ba-kun: Designated date: January 11, 2007 (birthday); January 1, 2011 (Chiba prefecture mascot character inauguration date), Designated person: Mr. Kensaku Morita (designated by the then governor of Chiba prefecture), 2010 It was devised as a mascot character for the Yume Peninsula Chiba National Athletic Meet and Yume Peninsula Chiba Tournament, and was the mascot character for Chiba Prefecture on January 1, 2011. Design, Ms. Chiharu Sakazaki. Known as a specialized agricultural cooperative that only sells and purchases agricultural products (vegetables, fruits, flowers), which is one of the few in Japan.

On October 7, 2021, farmers from all over the country competed for the weight of pumpkins at the “Japan's No. 1 Pumpkin Tournament (initially the Shodoshima Island Youth Council promotes Shodoshima nationwide)” on September 19, 2021. It was held on the day in Shodoshima Island, Kagawa Prefecture. Mr. Takao Matsumoto, the second branch of the 11th collection of the union, has been selected as the first place in the Chiba Prefectural Qualifying Tournament and the second place in the national tournament with a record of 361 kg. 

Actively cultivate mini-greenhouses and row covers in order to promote early evolution cultivation that takes advantage of the warm and sunny weather conditions peculiar to the southwestern warm regions, and to equalize and early evolve the harvest time and disperse the labor force. It seems that it has spread and established cultivation techniques for each type of crop, and has built an advanced and model production area system. The specialty sweet corn deteriorates quickly in quality, so it seems that it is careful to maintain its freshness. Producers are highly conscious of consumer needs, and in order to meet demand inside and outside the prefecture, producers harvest from around 1 to 2 am at midnight, perform fruit sorting and boxing work, and in the morning of that day. Seems to be working in the busy busyness of shipping. It seems that they are trying to reduce material costs by using returnable containers that can be used repeatedly for shipping and transportation. In addition, although we are cultivating mulch, we hear that the use of “biodegradable mulch” that can be reduced to soil is expanding from polyethylene mulch, and we are working to save labor and create an environment-friendly production area. A biodegradable mulch film with excellent performance and cost balance due to the fusion of biopolymer technology and compounding / processing technology. Decomposed into water (H20) and carbon dioxide (C02) by microorganisms in the soil.

It is known around the world as one of the leading production areas in the prefecture, centering on facility gardening such as cucumbers, colored peppers, garlic chives, zucchini, and mangoes, including peppers that once boasted the highest production in Japan. It is recognized that it is very important to secure new leaders in supporting agriculture, which is the core industry of Saito City. Therefore, in the city, JA, prefecture, and city will work together to create an organization to support farmers, and carry out various follow-ups on agriculture, which is not limited to the process from farming consultation to farming. Seems to be. Regarding agricultural training, it seems that they are incorporating advanced farmer training. Emigration by conducting practical training at top-class farmers, participating in local activities together, and participating in study sessions held by producers, in addition to technical matters. It seems that one of the merits is that even people will soon become acquainted with each other and become familiar with the area. Also, I heard that the farmer will be a good consultant even after independence and will take good care of him.

【Product name】

Oh! Miyazaki Zucchini

【Type】

Cucurbita pepo var. melopepo

【Producing area】

Kanoda, Saito City, Miyazaki Prefecture（JA Miyazaki Keizairen）

【Derived from the name】

Italian “zucca (pumpkin)” “zucchini” from a small squash.

【Major features】

The epidemic stomatitis; foot-and-mouth disease that occurred in Miyazaki Prefecture in 2010 killed the precious lives of 297,808 livestock and had a tremendous impact not only on the livestock industry but also on the local economy and the lives of the citizens of the prefecture. After the end of epidemic stomatitis; foot-and-mouth disease, in 2010, “epidemic stomatitis; regeneration / reconstruction from foot-and-mouth disease” was formulated, positioned as the most important issue of prefectural government, and support for resumption of livestock management. It is said that the public and private sectors have been working together as an “all Miyazaki” to change the production area structure and industrial structure, and to revitalize the area. After that, based on the “Miyazaki Prefectural Livestock Reborn Plan” formulated in 2013 and the “Miyazaki Prefectural Livestock Reborn Promotion Plan” formulated in 2016, which is now the third stage, “Production” is based on “Strengthening the epidemic prevention system”. With the three perspectives of “improvement of power”, “strengthening of human resources” and “strengthening of sales power” as priority measures, it seems that Miyazaki Prefecture is promoting efforts toward the growth of the livestock industry. As a result of the producers and other related organizations and organizations working together to regenerate and reconstruct from Aphtae epizooticae, it seems that the agricultural output of livestock in 2016 reached a record high of 220.6 billion yen. In addition, for beef cattle, we won the Prime Minister's Award for the third consecutive tournament at the “11th National Wagyu Ability Co-Promotion Society” last year, and there is a high interest in Wagyu due to the expansion of tourists visiting Japan. It is related to the fact that it has been working on the export of “Miyazaki Japan beef” ahead of the rest of the country and the registration of geographical indication (GI) protection system to protect the “Miyazaki Japan beef” brand to Taiwan where demand for various parts is expected. I'm listening to you. In March 2010, Miyazaki beef was adopted for the first time as a Japanese beef in a specific production area at the party after the 90th Academy Awards ceremony, and Miyachiku Co., Ltd., JA Miyazaki Keizai Ren, and the prefecture's trinity promotion activities were carried out. As a result, beef export volume in 2017 seems to have reached a record high of 394 tons. Furthermore, in terms of production base, with the support of the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries' “Livestock Cluster Project”, in addition to expanding the scale of each producer, breeding centers and cattle aimed at improving the productivity of each production area through cooperation and division of labor. The development of regional base facilities such as stations has also spread to the prefecture, and the number of breeding cows has started to increase since 2015. Achieved the annual plan target of 80,000 animals ahead of schedule. As for the bearers, Kagawa Livestock Co., Ltd., which contributed to the creation of an intractable disease-free area by taking the pinch that pigs disappeared in the outbreak area due to Aphtae epizooticae as an opportunity, received the Emperor's Cup and in June 2021. Mr. Masahiko Kagawa, the representative of the company, was appointed as the chairman of the Japan Pig Farming Association for the first time in Miyazaki Prefecture, and it seems that leaders who lead livestock are active in each region of the prefecture. In terms of distribution and sales, with the support of the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries' “Agricultural and Livestock Products Export Expansion Facility Development Project”, cattle, pigs and chickens produced in the prefecture are processed and processed in the prefecture to add value. I hear that the development of two export base facilities equipped with state-of-the-art equipment is steadily progressing. In addition, in order to change the structure of production areas that are highly dependent on livestock, the JA Group established one of the largest frozen vegetable processing factories in western Japan at that time, and used the feed fields of livestock farmers that were discontinued to grow vegetables for processing business. As a result of the accumulation of usage, it seems that it has become known to the world as a production area that occupies 70% of domestic frozen spinach. It is a certain fact that Japan's livestock farming has entered a new era of international competition due to the TPP11 agreement and other factors. Under these circumstances, in the summer of 2021, a regional caravan was held for the status of efforts and future promotion of the “People / Cow Plan” that set the goal of increasing the number of beef cattle breeding cows according to the actual conditions of each region in the prefecture. It seems to be new. Among them, beef cattle breeding is an important item in mountainous areas, but the population is declining significantly compared to flat land and the conditions are disadvantageous, so we aimed to inherit management resources and secure a labor force based on flexible ideas. Information and communication technology (so that young bearers can actively participate in livestock farming, because it is difficult to expand the contracted area due to a shortage of operators even if they are trying to divide the roughage production by contractors and opinions requesting measures. It seems that there are opinions that it is important to promote labor-saving and high-profit livestock farming by promoting work style reforms at production sites that incorporate ICT) and robot technology. In addition to the progress of internationalization of agriculture, the budget for livestock in the prefecture is shrinking due to the decrease in the number of farmers and the increase in social security costs, so that Miyazaki Prefecture will continue to fulfill its responsibilities as a food supply base in Japan. Seems to have a limit in following the precedents of vague measures. It seems important to continue to challenge the livestock industry, which will lead the next generation, by bringing in new ideas and building organic collaborations across a wide range of industries and fields, not just those involved in livestock, including producers. Miyazaki Zucchini is a plant of the Cucurbitaceae family that eats immature fruits that have just bloomed. It is similar to cucumber and white melon, but it has a light taste and can be used for various dishes. It seems that small young fruits can also be used as flower zucchini. Since it can be produced in a short period of time, it seems to be incorporated into the crop rotation system of fruits and vegetables cultivated in the greenhouse. Although it is a variety, it seems that it produces “diner（From Takii & Co., Ltd., it seems that the pericarp has light green marbling spots on the dark green area. The grass is completely free of vines, and the internodes seem to be extremely tight. Female flowers bloom continuously from each node, and the yield is high. It seems that the optimum harvest time is 4 to 6 days after mating, with a fruit diameter of 4 cm and a length of around 20 cm. As for the cooking method, stir-fry with meat is compatible, and it seems that it can be used for various dishes such as fried foods and simmered foods. As a guide, the number of planted plants is 1,200 per 10 a. It is recommended to plant seedlings of up to 4 true leaves to prevent plant damage and promote smooth initial growth. In order to increase the yield, we would like to add fertilizer 2-3 times from the beginning of harvest to promote the enlargement of the fruit and maintain the grass vigor until the latter half.）” with marbling spots on the beautiful dark green ground on the skin. Seedlings are raised in the house, but it seems that many cell-molded seedlings are grown in 72-hole cell trays. It seems that they are growing seedlings 10 to 15 days after sowing (1 to 1.5 true leaves). After planting, I heard that one row will be planted in the house with a ridge width of 180 cm and a spacing of 50 cm, and the plants will be grown at a relatively low temperature. It seems that pollen mating is carried out, the leaves are plucked so that the fruits are sufficiently exposed to light, and good quality ones are harvested. As I forgot to say, it is said that zucchini's history goes back to North America and Mexico, and that cultivation began in Europe around the 16th century. It seems to have a long history in Europe, but it is still a new vegetable in Japan, and it seems that it began to be imported from the United States around 1980. I hear that the consumption of zucchini is increasing year by year, and the domestic production is also increasing. According to a survey by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, domestic production has quadrupled in the 12 years from 2000 to 2012. After that, it seems that the value of research is worth investigating, such as the yield of the whole country. As an aside, in Shintomi Town, Koyu District, it seems that zucchini, whose appearance and taste have not been examined, was introduced for the first time in Japan in 1980 by a cultivation method called facility horticulture in Miyazaki Prefecture. It seems that zucchini was grown in Nagano and Chiba prefectures in the open field cultivation, but I heard that it was the first attempt to cultivate zucchini in earnest using a vinyl greenhouse in Japan. Wamyō Ruijushō - It is said that there was Emperor Jimmu's imperial palace, and there are many folklore about the Emperor. There was a shrine called “Emperor Jimmu Shrine（The predecessor of MIYAZAKI Jingu Shrine）” for a long time-Imagine the origin of Miyazaki Prefecture. “Hyuga country” of the ancient Ritsuryo nation : It is believed to have been established between 684（Emperor Tenmu, Hakuho Earthquake: Estimated to be a huge earthquake along the Nankai Trough）and 696（Empress Jito）AD. Satsuma became independent from Hyuga in 702-Taiho Code, envoy to Tang. Furthermore, on April 3, 713, Osumi was separated. A country area close to the current MIYAZAKI area has been confirmed : Except for a part of the south. “Jinno-shotoki” - History book by Sir Chikafusa Kitabatake-Ko “Miyazaki Prefecture”, Located in the southeastern part of Kyushu, in a mountainous prefecture where mountains occupy about 75% of the prefecture's land. The eastern edge faces Hyuga-nada (Pacific Ocean) with a total length of 400 km. With an area of ​​70.2 km east-west, 160 km north-south, and a total area of ​​7,734.18 km2, it is the 13th largest in Japan except Hokkaido. The landform consists of mountains including Volcanic areas, and low flat plains and Basin that include foothills, plateaus, terraces, and lowlands. The distribution covers all areas except the plains in the eastern part of the central part of the prefecture. It is lined with mountains such as Mt. Sobo (1756 m), Mt. Kunimi (1739 m), and Mt. Ichifusa (1721 m)（With Oita and Kumamoto as the border）. The Wanitsuka Mountains are located in the southern part of the prefecture, and the Kirishima volcanic group centered on Mt. Kirishima (1700 m) is located on the border of Kagoshima Prefecture. In the northern and southern coasts of the prefecture, the mountain bodies are submerged in the sea, forming a rias-style submergent coastline. The hills and plateaus surround the Miyazaki Plain and the Kirishima volcanic group to the east of the Kyushu Mountains. Distributed in basin groups such as Kakuto, Kobayashi, and Miyakonojo. It is rocky or gravel, and the upper part is covered with white sand around the volcanic area. Rivers and rainfall erosion are significant, and terraces and dissected valleys have developed, presenting complex topographical conditions. In addition to the basin river valley, lowlands are found near coastal estuaries and in river basins in the plains, forming alluvial lowlands. I hear that straight dune coasts are distributed along the plain coast. The coastline is bordered by Mimitsu, with many bends in the north and straight sandy beaches in the south. It is blessed with an excellent natural environment such as lush mountains and a beautiful coastline, and the area of ​​the natural park is 91,919 hectares, which occupies about 12 % of the prefecture's land（Designated as a 105-hectare marine park area）. Forests are 5,873 km, 75.9 %, arable land is 690 square km, 8.9 %. Roadside landscape beautification ordinance, 1969 : Protect excellent natural landscapes, trees and other plants along the road. By planting new flowers and trees, we plan to improve the scenery along the road and promote the beautification of the local area. “Roadside natural landscape district（Eighteen districts, total 1,026 ha designated）”, Washingtonia filifera.（ワシントニアパーム）“Roadside landscape planting area （Designated 74 districts, total 168）”, “沿道修景指定樹木（thirty-nine designated in twenty-seven locations）”, Designated, nationwide pioneer. The citizens of the prefecture have endeavored to create and conserve a road environment full of flowers and greens. 景観法（Landscape Act）, 平成十六年, 六月十八日, 法律第百十号（Act No. 110 of June 18, 2004）, Examination of planting arrangement and management method that should be in the future. I hear that the first planting along the road was in 1937. Phoenix was planted along the national highway along the Nichinan coast, and maintenance as a road park began. National Park in Kyushu, Japan called Nippo Seaside National Park,1955. Promoted the planting of flowers and trees along the road in 1962. Collaboration with citizens of the prefecture : We are working to improve the spirit of making our local road beautiful by ourselves and to foster an attachment to the road. “Kunitomi Town, Higashimorokata District”, Located in the central part of the prefecture, the east is adjacent to ‘Miyazaki City’, the prefecture's capital. On the north side is Saito City, which is famous for its ancient tombs（Note however that the Haniwa (terra-cotta figurine) standing statue of an armed male currently owned by Tokyo National Museum was excavated from a site in the city of Ota in Gunma Prefecture, while the items excavated from the Higo Eta Funayama Tumulus, also owned by Tokyo National Museum, were excavated from a site in Tamana District in Kumamoto Prefecture, and finally the gilt bronze harness excavated from the ‘HYUGA’ Province Saitobaru Tumulus, now owned by the Gotoh Art Museum, was excavated from Saito City in Miyazaki Prefecture）. Saito is highly regarded throughout the country for its agricultural and livestock products produced from its warm climate and abundant land. Typical examples are peppers, sweet corn, garlic chives, and ripe mangoes. In addition, processed products made from Yuzu from Higashi Mera and shochu; distilled spirits made from high-quality water and sweet potatoes are also popular as souvenirs. Currently, with the philosophy of “creating a collaborative society with the citizens,” he continues to move toward creating a “lively Japanese hometown, Saito.” Last but not least, let me introduce a simple cultural property that is close to the producer's field. City-designated historic site “Ito Tower” Enkoin Ruins : Designated date: September 1, 2016 Location: section of village Kanoda. It seems to be the tombstone format used by Mr. Ito, who owned the central part of Hyuga Province in the Middle Ages, and Mr. Ito Obi, who ruled Obi in the early modern period, that is, Mr. Ito who appears in the history of Hyuga. It is a famous story that Miyazaki's historical researchers called this “Ito Tower”. The shape is similar to the five-story stone tower and the Olympic tower, but the part corresponding to the water ring of the Olympics seems to be square. It seems that the name of the priest and the year of death are written in the square part. It was used as a tombstone for the lord of the Ito clan, the lord of the Obi clan, and his relatives, and it seems that the vassals who made a great contribution to the survival of the Ito clan were allowed to bury it at the Ito pagoda. In July 1569, Yoshimasu Ito, the lord of the castle in the 11th capital, died at the young age of 24 (Akita young lady of noble birth), the daughter of Fusamoto Ichijo. It seems that his father, Yoshisuke, built the castle in Nakao Castle, which is one of the castles, to mourn the bodhi of Yoshisuke. It is said that along with the tombstones of Yoshimasu, the tombstones of Yoshimasu's older brother, Kotoramaru, who died at the age of 9, are lined up at the site of Enko Temple.

A representative of healthy vegetables rich in potassium and low in calories. Among the light-colored vegetables, it is rich in carotene and seems to help strengthen immunity in cooperation with vitamin C. Carotene tends to increase its absorption rate when taken with oil, and ratatouille (a specialty of the Provence region in southern France, which is a local dish of Nice, with summer vegetables) is a reasonable dish. It is a vegetable rich in dietary fiber, which is an indigestible component contained in food that is difficult to digest by human digestive enzymes, and seems to contain about 1.3 g of total dietary fiber. Of the total amount, about 1.1 g is insoluble dietary fiber, which helps the growth of intestinal bacteria and plays an important role in intestinal regulation.

Fruits are much more delicate vegetables than you can imagine, and because the skin is soft, they are easily damaged by a little bit, and they are harvested and packed very carefully, and even after that, careful handling is required.

All mating is done by hand, and it is said that safe crop production is realized. Since it grows fast, it takes less than a week to determine the harvest, which is laborious.

It is widely cultivated from autumn to spring by utilizing cultivation management technology. Cultivation in the greenhouse is mainly forcible cultivation using a warm climate, but Miyazaki products using fertile soil are known for their dark green and good quality. 

“Twenty-four Eyes” is an period drama published by Japanese Ms. Sakae Tsuboi. The announcement was made in December 1952, and the publisher was Kobunsha Co., Ltd. In 1928, Professor Oishi was assigned to the detached classroom on Shodoshima Island, Kagawa Prefecture, which is located in the beautiful Seto Inland Sea. She grows up to be a good teacher who is loved by 12 freshmen, struggling with old country customs. One day, the teacher falls into a pitfall caused by his child's prankish, ruptures the Achilles tendon, and is absent from school for a long time. After a while, the teacher will be transferred to our school. From that time on, militarism became more intense, the recession became more severe, and some children were unable to continue attending school. Eventually, a turning point came and the married teacher retired because he disliked militaristic education. The war begins, half of the boys are killed, and the teacher's husband is killed in action because of her patriotism. In addition, the teacher's mother and youngest daughter also die one after another. After the war, the middle-aged teacher returned to the detached classroom to teach. Some of his students were children (adults) of former students. The children called the teacher who cried just by reading the name “Naki-Miso (easily moved to tears, a dialect of western Kochi prefecture that cries often)”. At that time, an alumni association of former students is held. Kochi Prefecture is scattered throughout Shikoku and is known as a major producer of yuzu. Neither fruits nor humans should grow impatiently. It is important to keep an eye on them and wait for them to grow up. The origin of her ideal education is to get a glimpse of in modern Japan as well.

In Shizuoka City, Mr. Irie, who is said to be a descendant of Fujiwara no TAMENORI, who was credited with the Taira no MASAKADO turbulence, seems to have had a strong force. It seems that the powerful families in the city area have advanced to various parts of Shizuoka prefecture under Mr. Irie. Warashina, Tegoshi, Yoshikawa, Funakoshi, Shibukawa, Yabe, Breath Tsu (Okitsu), Yui, Kanbara, etc. have been active since the Kamakura period. From the rebellion of Northern and Southern dynasties, Nanboku-cho, Takauji ASHIKAGA of the Northern Dynasty seems to have tried to attach the clan Norikuni IMAGAWA（Suruga Imagawa's first head）to protect Suruga and Tootomi, and to bring in local samurai to his side. In addition, he paid attention to Kiyomigata, built Kiyomiji Temple (Okitsu, Shimizu Ward), which was devastated by the war, and seemed to have defended the highway and monitored the anti-shogunate forces. On the other hand, Sadanobu KANO, who had a base in Abe Castle (Nishigaya, Aoi Ward), is active as a central figure in the Southern Court of Suruga Province. Abe Castle is located on a mountain with an altitude of 435 m that straddles Uchimaki, Shiinoo, and Hatori on the west bank of the Abe River, and forms a sphere of influence based there. However, it seems that Abe Castle was gradually overwhelmed by the Northern Dynasty. I hear that the origin of Shimizu's green tea production begins in Kiyomi and Ashikubo. It seems that Kiyomi's tea was a specialty because it was a post town on the Tokaido during the Edo period. It is recorded that tea was exported directly from Shimizu Port from the end of the Edo period to around 1906, and production expanded rapidly.

【Major features】

In the Kito Village Suke district (currently Naka Town, Naka District, Tokushima Prefecture), which is the birthplace of Kito Yuzu, the native seedlings have been seasoned as home fruit trees since before the Meiji era under the location conditions of the hilly and mountainous areas with cool and humid climate conditions. It seems that it has been used for. From around 1962, the “Study Group on Yuzu Cultivation” was established in the Kito Village, and it seems that it has become possible to earn a living by striving to develop as a local industry, such as quality improvement and seedling production to shipping. It is said that he received the “Asahi Agricultural Award（Since its establishment in 1963, it has been widely recommended to society by digging up the efforts and ingenuity of farmers.  Take a leap in the promotion of agriculture and rural areas.  The Asahi Shimbun Company (Head office location:

Tsukiji, Chuo Ward, Tokyo, Nakanoshima, Kita Ward, Osaka City, Osaka) was terminated in 1998.）” in 1978 as a result of his unwavering achievements. The Suke district is one of the most famous areas of “Kito Yuzu” in the village, but it seems that it took a lot of time and labor because there was no farm road in the district that could be carried out and it was forced to be carried out by human shoulders. Under these circumstances, a connecting road to the district was established by the group farm road project from 1976, and the farm road development that can circulate in the park was completed at the end of 2001, and now the distribution of agricultural products is rationalized and the transportation labor is reduced. It is said that it contributes to the conservation of the production area of ​​“Kito Yuzu”. The areas adjacent to Kito Village are the same 7 municipalities: Kaminaka Town, Kisawa Village, Kaifu County Hainan Town, Miyoshi County Higashiiyayama Village, Kochi Prefecture Kami County Monobe Village, Aki City, and Aki County Umaji Village. It seems to be. And it seems that all the boundaries between these areas and villages consist of mountain ridges. The flow path of the Naka River, which has its source in the village, also carves deep valleys and repeats meandering to keep people away. It seems that the pass that people used to maintain human, material and cultural exchanges with other areas in such isolated villages was the only important passage. It seems that the three main passages used until recent years were the Iwakura Pass to Kisawa Village, the Yotsuashido Pass to Kochi Prefecture, and the Hoshikoshi Pass to Kaminaka Town. If you go south down Kaminaka Town, you will reach Kirigoe Pass, which is open in Kaifu District. It was in 1942 that the current National Highway No. 175 was connected to the lower reaches of the Naka River as a roadway, and I heard that the Yotsuashido Pass tunnel with the Kochi prefecture side was opened around 1964. It is clear that the change from this pass to a modern motorway has brought about a major transformation in the lives of the villagers. The relationship between the village and other areas as seen by the marriage carried out through these three pass roads and one driveway is interesting. First of all, the Iwakura Pass, which opened to the north of the village, is located in the Suke district, and is particularly closely related to the Buraku village. If you cross this pass, you will reach the neighboring Kisawa village, and then you will have exchanges with Miyoshi, Oe, Myozai and Tokushima. From the Meiji era to recent years, the number of people who had a marriage with Kisawa Village was the second highest after Kaminaka Town in the Suke district. Currently, it seems that using a bus will be a difficult detour. Also, in the Izuhara district, in the case of exogamy during the Meiji era, it seems that he had the second relationship with Tokushima after Kaminaka Town. Next, when using the Yotsuashido Pass, which leads to Kochi Prefecture from the village to the west, in the Kitagawa area, in the case of exogamy, there is more interaction with Kochi Prefecture than in any area in the prefecture, especially Kami District. Seems to have had the deepest relationship. And it seems that the marriage relationship with Kochi Prefecture has continued from the Meiji era to recently with the assistant district at the eastern end of the village. And it seems that it was necessary to cross the Kirigoe Pass in order to have a relationship with the lower reaches of the Naka River. It is said that the entire village had the most marriage relationships with the areas down the Naka River (Naga District, Anan City), especially with the neighboring Kaminaka Town. If you cross the Hoshigoe Pass via Kaminaka Town, you will reach Kaifu District, which opens to the Pacific Ocean. It seems that it was especially important for the transportation of goods. Marriage is also carried out through this passage, and it seems that the relationship is deep even in the Showa period. However, it seems that attention has also been paid to the fact that they do not have a marriage with the Kitagawa area. Finally, it seems that there was no out-of-prefecture marriage in areas other than Kochi prefecture throughout the Meiji and Taisho eras. I heard that it is only related to the Kinki region in the Taisho era in the Izuhara district. Some examples with Hokkaido seem to be interactions with people who have a blood relationship with people who have previously moved out of the village. Now that the road has changed from a mountain pass to a driveway, the conditions for deciding marriage have changed significantly, but we considered the marriage zone in Kito Village about 50 years ago (1959-1968).  It seems that the number of marriages in the village, which accounted for 67.7% during the Meiji era, has decreased to 28%. Instead of this, it seems that out-of-prefecture marriages now account for the same proportion as in-village marriages. And it seems that the area related to marriage outside the prefecture has changed from the conventional Kochi prefecture to the Kinki region, especially Osaka. It seems that the marriage zone has been expanded to the lower reaches of the Naka River and the urban areas of Tokushima Prefecture, as the number of exchanges with other Naka District and Anan City, as well as Kaminaka Town, which has been the most closely related to the prefecture, has increased. It seems that exchanges with Tokushima City also accounted for 11%. From past materials, it can be seen that the number of marriages with Kochi Prefecture, which has been closely related to the past, is 4.5%, and that with Ama District is 3.9%, although it is a small number. The Kito region of Tokushima prefecture is located on the hillside of Mt. Tsurugi and is a region where citrus fruits are cultivated.  In the summer, it is said that Citrus sudachi and Citrus yuko, which have a strong flavor and good quality, can be obtained due to the cool and rainy climate and the temperature difference between day and night peculiar to the mountains. In the early 1965s, production for the purpose of shipping fruits and vegetables began in the former Kito village, and we switched from private yuzu vinegar to fruit and vegetable sales, and we are proud of the leading shipment volume and quality in the whole country, taking advantage of the location conditions of the Niudani region. , Forming the “Kito Yuzu” brand, which is full of fascination both in name and reality. The quality has been recognized by the cultivation of yuzu for about half a century, and it has received G1 certification from the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries as a proof of a regional brand that protects the distinctive regional products cultivated by the climate and tradition. It also seems to be highly evaluated overseas. Geographical Indication Protection System (under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries): Registration number: No. 42, registration date September 15, 2017, registration application number 113, registration application date, February 27, 2017, name of registered producer organization, Kito Yuzu Promotion Council, Address of registered producer group, Kanbari, Kuwano Town, Anan City, Tokushima Prefecture, Name of representative of registered producer group, Chairman Akira Kimura, Classification of specified agriculture, forestry and fishery products, Class 3 fruits Yuzu, names of specified agricultural, forestry and fishery products, Kito Yuzu, production areas of specified agricultural, forestry and fishery products, Naka Town, Anan District, Tokushima Prefecture. In order to maintain and develop the “Kito Yuzu” brand, which has been cultivated for many years and can ship high-quality, “safe and secure” Yuzu without rotting fruits throughout the year, we thoroughly disseminate it at cultivation seminars, field study meetings, etc. I hear that it is certified as being evaluated for improving production volume and quality through continuous cultivation management. In addition, pruning work is carried out in the garden, and it seems that the yuzu is finished to a better quality by carefully thinning out the long branches and crossing branches and making a healthy tree. Citrus Yuzu is an evergreen small tree that is said to have originated in China. Among the citrus fruits, it has strong cold resistance and seems to be planted mainly as a garden tree. Fruits are bumpy green, spherical and tend to turn yellow when ripe. The pericarp has aroma and strong acidity, and is used for cooking. It seems that the fruits are called herbal medicines, the pericarp is called the orange bark, and the seeds are called the orange nucleus. It is self-fertilizing and seems to bear fruit with one. Although it has strong cold resistance in cultivation, it is a little weak in heat, and it seems that temperate regions are suitable for cultivation. I have heard that the soil prefers deep-rooted and well-drained land, and grows poorly in humid places such as paddy fields. Let's take a brief look at Shimizu Ward, Shizuoka City, where the producer's field is located. 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.

In addition, “Tetsushuji” related to Tesshu YAMAOKA（In swordsmanship, he studied Shinkage-ryu swordsmanship at the age of 9, Hokushin Itto-ryu swordsmanship at the age of 16, and at the age of 21, he became an instructor at the training institution “Kobusho; Military School” established by the Shogunate. It is a famous story that he continued to practice swordsmanship even after entering the Meiji era and opened “Muto-ryu” in 1879.）, “Okitsuza fishing villa” which restored the villa of Kinmochi SAIONJI-Ko, the last elder, “Old Igarashi residence” known for Western-style houses in the Taisho era, “Old Igarashi residence” which retains the remnants of the lodgings It seems that there are many historical buildings such as “Yui Honjin Park”. 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 is warm throughout the four seasons and you can enjoy sightseeing comfortably. It is the place where Ieyasu Tokugawa, the first shogun of the Edo Shogunate, retired, and there are many historical buildings such as Sunpu Castle Park and Shizuoka Sengen Shrine, including the national treasure Kunozan Toshogu. At Sunpu Takumi inn, you can experience Shizuoka's traditional crafts such as Suruga Bamboo Ware, Suruga Japanese dyeing, and Suruga Laquer Ware. Enjoy fresh seafood such as sakura shrimp and shirasu, which are the special products of Suruga Bay, including tuna, which boasts the best landing in Japan.）In connection with the “Shizuoka City Aiming Green Tea Place Japan's No. 1 Ordinance” that came into effect in April 2009, an orchid-shaped design（The label affixed to the tea box when exporting Japanese tea from the early Meiji era to the beginning of the Showa era, created by ukiyo-e craftsmen at the time, and its modern design is known as a pioneer of Japanese graphics design.）contest was held in October 2010 as part of the ward attraction creation project, and many applications were received from all over Japan. 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.

Hesperidin (C28H34O15) contained in the fruit skin has a function of promoting the absorption of vitamin C (ascorbic acid; C6H8O6), and β-carotene is expected to have a function of strengthening the mucous membrane and boosting immunity. Therefore, it is expected to have the effect of enhancing immunity, preventing infectious diseases such as colds, and accelerating the recovery of illness. It is clear that the slippery part of the seed surface is rich in pectin (Polygalacturonic acid; D-galacturonic acid (C6H10O7)) quality. It is expected to have the effect of preventing the rise of blood sugar level and lowering the cholesterol level.

木頭系や海野系, 早生種の山根系, 種無しの多田錦など. Physical beauty symbolizes the blooming of white flowers that shine on deep green leaves and the fruiting of yellow fruits with a refreshing scent. The bright yellow and fragrant fruits that are distributed from late autumn to winter are impressive. It can be widely used not only for fruit juice but also for the skin, and I am looking forward to the winter solstice day. Because it comes from the pun of hot spring cure. In addition, Yuzu seems to have a wish for “accommodation” to come. Unlike squash, it is in season in winter and has a strong scent, so it is also used in Japan for the purpose of exorcism before inviting luck to avoid evil.

Peach and chestnut seeds take three years to bear fruit, plums take eight, Yuzu (Japanese citron) takes eighteen years; 柚子の大馬鹿十八年 and Japanese plum trees take sixteen years.' It will take eighteen years from planting to fruiting, and the producers will have a considerable sense of futility until they are for sale.

ラファサチン (アリルイソチオシアネート); -N=C=S: Expected to have the effect of suppressing the generation of ethylene gas, and the role of preventing oxidation and enzyme. Sinigrin（C10H16KNO9S2）contained in root and leaf cells is produced by the action of an enzyme called myrosinase（β-thioglucosidase）. グルコシノレート (Pungent principle; Mustard oil glycosides): Secondary metabolite; It is divided into three types: aliphatic（Alanine, Isoleucine, leucine, methionine, valine.）, aromatic（Phenylananine, Tyrosine）, and indole（C8H7N）（Tryptophan）, and is synthesized from different amino acid precursors.

It seems to be present in almost all living things, from bacteria to mammals. It contains various enzymes such as enzymes that decompose polysaccharides such as starch and disaccharides such as sucrose and lactose to serve as nutrient sources, and enzymes that process glycoproteins.フラボノイド; Polyphenols with pigments, bitterness and pungent ingredients.

From 2020 to 2021, Miura City sought a benefit of 100,000 yen per farmer (agricultural cooperative member) in order to support farmers whose management was affected by the spread of the new coronavirus infection. As soon as preparations were made as part of the emergency economic measures, the application was accepted and it seems that it will be paid by the end of February. Demand for eating out is sharply sluggish due to refraining from going out and shortening the business hours of restaurants due to the spread of the new corona infection. I took advantage of other industries, but ... In addition to the large drop in vegetable consumption, the good weather and good overall growth also affected the decline in wholesale prices, and farmers' sales are now on the rise. It is still decreasing. Against this background, the Liberal Democratic Party Miura City Council requested Mayor Hideo Yoshida to provide urgent support to farmers. It is said that the city has implemented its own economic measures. The city expects 750 applications and has posted 75.33 million yen as a project cost including office expenses. I heard that in January 2021, the supplementary budget for the general account for 2020 was dismissed exclusively.

【Origin of the name】

It is characteristic that the embryonic axis on the root rises greatly from the ground surface when it grows, and chloroplast（It can be confirmed that CO2 is easily permeated, but it seems to be selective for other metabolites. The internal feature is that there is a network structure consisting of multiple folded membranes called thylakoid membranes (where photochemical reactions occur in directly embedded photosynthetic dyes), which is NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate) in photosynthesis. It seems that it is a field of photodependent reaction of C21H28N7O17P3) and ATP (Adenosine TriPhosphate; biological energy currency) synthesis. The thylakoid membrane is known to float in the aqueous region of chloroplasts called stroma (equivalent to the cytoplasm of cyanobacteria. Fields for carbon assimilation, nitrogen assimilation, starch synthesis, etc.). It is clear that it contains soluble oxygen that reduces carbon dioxide to sugar. The aqueous region in the thylakoid membrane is called the lumen, and it has protons (also 50% nuclear spin) taken into the lumen across the membrane, with a mass of about 1.673 × 10-27 kg and about the mass of electrons. 1836 times. Protons form a nucleus with neutrons, the number of protons corresponds to the atomic number, and the sum of the number of protons and the number of neutrons corresponds to the mass number. Hydrogen nuclei are the main measurement targets of the NMR spectrum. Yes, this is called NMR. In the world of organic chemistry, the meaning of hydrogen ion (H+) is often used. Acid is defined as a proton (H+) donor) because it performs ATP synthesis. It seems to be the proton driving force of. Thylakoid membranes form stacked parts called grana (a membrane structure in which small-diameter thylakoid disks are stacked in layers) in which flat-plate vesicles are folded, or they protrude into the stroma and also have grana. It seems to exist as a single layer of linked vesicles. The thylakoid membrane region of grana that is not in contact with the stroma is called grana-lamellae, and the region that is in contact with the stroma is generally called stroma lamella. The components involved in photosynthesis embedded in the membrane are specifically distributed in granala lamella and stroma lamella.）is formed on the surface part exposed to sunlight and it turns pale green.

Miura City, Kanagawa Prefecture and Miura City Agricultural Cooperative have signed a disaster agreement by September 17, 2015. It seems that the pillar is that the agricultural cooperative will provide a cardboard box for shipping vegetables and a place to collect relief supplies in the event of a disaster. The signing ceremony is being held at the city hall on September 15. It seems that the city and the agricultural cooperative had already signed an agreement in 2005 for the agricultural cooperative to provide food and other daily necessities in the event of a disaster. It seems that new cardboard boxes can be used as a substitute for floor mats for evacuees, and agricultural cooperative facilities such as collection and shipping facilities scattered throughout the city can be used as a base for storing relief supplies gathered from all over the country. According to the city, there is currently only one emergency supplies collection base designated by the city, the Shiokaze Arena (Irie, Hasse Town) in the tsunami inundation area. Miura City, Kanagawa Prefecture, is famous as one of the leading outdoor vegetable producing areas in Japan, where radishes, cabbage, and squid are cultivated, taking advantage of the warm climate with an average annual temperature of 15.5 degrees Celsius and annual sunshine hours of 2100 hours. The Miura Agricultural Cooperative aims to establish distinctive agriculture that responds to competition between production areas and diversifying consumer needs through the development of new varieties, the introduction of production technology with less environmental impact, and the development of processed agricultural products. Seems to be. For example, Miura radish is famous for daikon radish, but we are working to expand the production of “lady salad”, which has been developed as a variety, in order to make a new daikon radish for small and tastier salads. Its characteristic is a beautiful red color with a pink tinge on the outside and pure white on the inside. You can eat the whole skin, and it seems that the size is 300-350 g per bottle. In addition, it seems that “Radish distilled spirits” using Miura radish as a processed product are also on sale. Since 1977, breeding has started with the aim of “expanding radish consumption” and “miniaturizing and better taste”, and “Lady Salad” was born, which was developed exclusively for salads (by application). This product was cultivated by crossing Miura radish with American and German radishes. By eating the whole skin, you can get more anthocyanins than white radish. It seems that about 140,000 cases have been shipped from mid-October to the end of March. In developing radish varieties for different purposes, in addition to lady salads, they are also developing “kozakura radishes,” “awazakura radishes,” and “new lady salads.” Within the jurisdiction of the Agricultural Cooperative, radish (about 786 ha: shipment is lady of pleasure Miura radish at the end of December, Japanese white winter radish from early November to February, spring radish from late February to early April), cabbage (Approximately 740 Hectares: Early spring cabbage Late November to mid-March, Spring cabbage March to late May), Summer watermelon (Approximately 386 Hectares: July to August), Pumpkin (Approximately 126 Hectares: June to August), Melon It seems that farming centered on open-field vegetables such as (55 Hectares: late June to July) is being carried out. Of these, winter-spring radish and early spring / spring cabbage are designated production areas of the country, and watermelon is a designated production area of ​​the prefecture. Recently, Wax gourd, Bitter ground fruit, summer welsh onion, tomatoes, etc. are also cultivated, and it seems that mandarin orange picking and strawberry picking are also carried out. According to the 2005 Agriculture and Forestry Census, the area of ​​cultivated land is about 1190 ha (of which about 1170 ha is ordinary fields), and of the 11.1 billion yen in agricultural output in the same year, radish is 48.5%, cabbage is 26.2%, watermelon is 12.4%, and pumpkin is It seems that 3.6% and melons accounted for 1.8%. Aiming for natural taste and healthy vegetables, in terms of sales, it is said that it is further focusing on special products in cooperation with Yokosuka Hayama Agricultural Cooperative. The Miura City Agricultural Cooperative Shipping Association is organized in 3 locations at the Misaki Branch, 9 at the Hasse Branch, 3 at the Kamimiyada Branch, and 3 at the Matsuwa Branch. Seems to hold. Of these, the spring cabbage shipping group “Matsuwa” formed a spring cabbage shipping group of 68 farmers in the Matsuwa area in 2002, and in collaboration with “Miura D.S.W Co., Ltd.”, deep sea water off Miura. Cultivated spring cabbage (irrigated during the seedling raising period and transplanting period, and sprayed on the foliage once or twice after planting in the field), and shipped with the indication “Use deep sea water off Miura” on the shipping box. It seems that it is. As an aside, Matsuwa mackerel is the brand name of chub mackerel landed at the Matsuwa, Minamishitaura Town, fishing port in Miura City, Kanagawa Prefecture. I heard that it got its name because it was landed at the Matsuwa fishing port. Start fishing at dawn. It seems that a single fish can be put into an ice-covered fish tank without touching it. It seems to be famous as a luxury mackerel brand that grows in the Bungo Channel and is named alongside Seki Mackerel（Seki mackerel is one of the chub mackerels that can be caught in the Hoyo Strait, which was caught by a member of the Saganoseki branch of the Oita Prefectural Fisheries Cooperative Association. It is famous as a high-class fish created by differentiating the fishing method. As a result of applying for trademark registration and trying to foster the brand by manually tagging each fish, the taste of mackerel that can be eaten with sashimi has been recognized, and it has become a national district.）, which is landed in Saganoseki, Oita Prefecture. It is said that July and after is the season when it is delicious with fat, but the catch is small and it is prized, and it seems that market officials call it “golden mackerel”. If it is sold at a fish store, it will be nearly 10 times the price of a regular Scomber japonicus. The Matsuwa mackerel season is from August to the end of December.

Nationally registered tangible cultural property : Former Hasegawa family house owner / stone warehouse / Garden gate and inner wall: Registered tangible cultural property, Mito, Hasse Town, December 5, 1st year of Reiwa. The genealogy of the rise and fall of the Miura Clan, which dates back to the feudal era of the Middle Ages, is nothing but the history of Miura's prosperity and rise and fall for about 450 years. The story of the clan's activities and sorrows, including Genji, Hojo, and Ashikaga, during the heyday of the Kamakura Period and the destruction of the Muromachi Period, is an honor of Military Family. The fierce battle with Soun Hojo-Ko at Arai; Misaki Castle, the Aburatsubo that became the end of the Miura clan, lasted for three years. Yoshiatsu; 道寸 Miura-Ko, Mr. Arajiro's parent and child's bravery, and the tragic story that most of the road dimensions and officers decayed into Aburatsubo Bay at the time of the fall of the castle are still in the appearance of a quiet cove. I'm keeping it. Ancient, Jomon, Yayoi, and Kofun period ruins are widely distributed in the city. In the early Kamakura period, the Miura clan, including Yoshimori WADA-Ko, was active. Also, during this period, three palace of cherry blossoms, camellia, and peaches were opened in Misaki, and many important people including Minamoto no Yoritomo-Ko visited. A banquet is held by planting cherry trees on Jogashima and Hozoyama in Misaki. During the Edo period, it was a busy port town and was gradually developed as a fishing port, which laid the foundation for the formation of a city as a pelagic fishing base in recent years. In 1590, when Mr. Gohojo was destroyed by Hideyoshi-Ko's attack on Odawara Castle, Ieyasu-Ko left the Tokai region in response to Hideyoshi-Ko's intention, and the former territory of Gohojo, the six Kanto countries Kozuke,. It is reported that the territory was changed to Kazusa, Shimosa, Sagami, Musashi, Izu and entered Edo Castle. Ieyasu-Ko placed the Hatamoto in a place that can be reached overnight from Edo, and in the distance, mainly selected the meritorious people of the Tokai era as daimyo and placed them on the Tokaido line. Miura District; The Miura Peninsula is under the direct control of all but some of the flagship territories, and Nagatsuna Hasegawa-Ko was invited by Suruga as the deputy head of the government, and a camp was set up on the shores of Uraga Bay. In 1594, Toyotomi Hideyoshi's nationwide land survey was conducted all over the country, and Kokudaka of rice was seized in Miura District. His servant, Masafusa Moriya（Former Takeda retainer）-Ko, was involved in the inspection of Kikoba Village as a substitute for Nagatsuna-Ko, the deputy chief of each. It is believed that many of the indigenous people who have been indigenous to the area since ancient times have been incorporated into Ieyasu-Ko's Military and agricultural separation policy and have become village officials. On the other hand, the Shogunate placed four ship magistrates, Masatsuna Mukai-Ko, Kagetaka Ohama-Ko, Takanori Mamiya-Ko, and Magobei Chiga-Ko, in Misaki, the southern tip of the Miura Peninsula, as a restraint at the mouth of Edo Bay. Mr. Mukai（Mr. Imagawa, Mr. Takeda, Mr. Tokugawa）was given the position of magistrate of the ship, and his power was famous in the sea of ​​Sagami. In 1615, when the TOYOTOMI army was settled by the Siege of Osaka, the three were assigned to Edo, leaving only Mr. Mukai, who left the footsteps of the clan on the Miura Peninsula for a long time. “Misaki, Hashirimizu Guardhouse” : The Shogunate established various checkpoints to maintain security, and set up a maritime security action at Misaki and Hashirimizu as a maritime security at the mouth of Edo Bay. It is said that ascending ships were monitored in Misaki and descending ships were monitored in Hashirimizu. Direct retainer of a shogun acts as a magistrate at both bansho, and concentricity is in charge of the practice. The magistrate of Miura and Hashirimizu Bansho not only takes charge of all the work related to the sea, but also the deputy head of Miura District, Nagatsuna Hasegawa-Ko and Nagashige-Ko (nephew of Nagatsuna) died between 1596 and 1614. The camp is abolished. It is reported that in 1648, both magistrates also served as deputy officials except for a part of Miura District, and oversaw the village administration by paying the annual tribute rice under the direct control of the shogunate. As for the change of lords, the lords who rule here have changed with the times since Ieyasu-Ko entered the Kanto region. In 1590, Hideyoshi-Ko unification of the whole country and Miura District became under the direct control of Mr. TOKUGAWA. Land inspection is conducted in Nobi Village and Sugaruya Village in 1591. In 1600, the De Liefde was washed ashore in Bungo, and Mr. William Adams was sent to Uraga. Hemi Village to Mr. Anjin Miura (Mr. Williams Adams) from 1600 to 1614. After the fall of Osaka Castle (the destruction of Toyotomi) in 1615, Mr. Mamiya and others Misaki were withdrawn to Edo, and Mr. Chiga and Mr. Ohama were also withdrawn to Edo. Reconstruction of Shinbuji Yakushido in Numama Village in 1622. 1632 Tadakatsu Mukai-Ko, ordered to Hashirimizu number, Yoriki six horses, concentric thirty people are entrusted. In 1639, itabi-type Koshinto was built at Sogenji Temple in Kugyo Village (the oldest Koshinto in the city). 1641 Masakata Mukai-Ko, Otsu, and Morisaki were given 1,000 koku and became a Hashirimizu ship magistrate. 1660, Shinzaemon Sunamura-Ko begins development of Uchikawa Shinden. 1665, Shinzaemon-Ko Build a monument on the Yawata River tide embankment. 1667 Sunamura-Ko completes 585 Ishiyo Uchikawa Shinden. 1674 Mukai Shogen Masakatsu-Ko died (Tadakatsu's sixth son), buried in Otsu Village Teisho-ji Temple A fish wholesaler in Edo Odawara, Honmoku Kanazawa Territory and Miura 17gaura argue for entry and exit. 1679 Uchikawa Shinden divided into two (later Zenroku group, Yobei group). 1683 Takeyama Fudoson moves from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain 1688 Higashiurawa's Subashiri (fry of mullet) fishing is subject to 13 tax; 貫: 1300両= 13000匁= 約48.75 kg. 1691 Uraga Tomyodo's expenses are charged to the dried eel wholesaler 1692 Uraga is divided into Higashi Uraga and Nishi Uraga. 1696 Misaki and Hashirimizu magistrates are abolished. 1703 Minami-Kantou, Tokai earthquake, tsunami wrecked Uraga, Higashi-Uraga's dried eel wholesaler was damaged, and the gate of Daimei-ji Temple in Kanaya village was destroyed. 1720 The Shimoda magistrate is abolished and a magistrate's office is set up in Uraga. First magistrate Hori Okinokami Toshio-Ko, Yoriki 10 people, Concentric 50 people 1721 Inspection of kaisen begins at Uraga guardhouse. 1739 Higashi-Uraga's dried eel wholesaler, unpaid due to past luck, pleaded with Uraga magistrate's office again. 1740 Boso Mikuni's dried eels have been declining to the top of the hierarchy that they should be landed in Higashiuraga. 1750 Matsudaira Yamato no kami Tomonori-Ko occupies 32 villages in Miura District. 1777 Shogoro Edoya asks Uraga to open a laundry shop (prostitute business). After that, on January 1, 1955, Misaki Town, Minamishitaura Town, and Hasse Village merged to form “Miura City”, which continues to this day. “Minamishitaura Town Agricultural Cooperative" will be added on April 1, 1969. “Japanese ⌈Aokubi （greenhead）radish」”, It is said that it was first cultivated as Miura radish since the Meiji era. Initially, the surrounding area was from the sea, and transportation was carried to Tokyo by ship, but at the end of the Taisho era, transportation was shifted to automobiles. Along with the advancement of cultivation techniques under the guidance of agricultural associations, voluntary unions were formed by producers. Mainly on sale in the Tokyo market. In the latter half of the Showa 30's（1950s）, the number of farmers who own private and transport vehicles increased, and individual shipments increased. Agricultural cooperatives will strengthen joint shipping and sales, and in 1978, 3 million cases, more than half of which will be jointly shipped, will be reflected. Introduced in 1979 in light of consumption trends such as miniaturization, weight reduction, and sweet taste. Since it sells higher than “Miura Japanese Radish”, it became mainstream in the latter half of the 1970s.）and agriculture centered on open-field vegetable cultivation in the suburbs of the Tokyo metropolitan area. “Japanese white radish” has increased due to changes in consumption trends, and it seems that 99% is now Japanese white radish. It is one of the largest radish producing areas in Japan in winter, and seems to boast a large market share from Kanto to Hokkaido. I heard that the sowing period is from early September to mid-October (ridge width 42 to 60 cm, spacing 18 to 24 cm), the harvest period is from mid-November to late March, and the yield is about 10,000 kg per 10 acre. 野菜生産出荷安定法,（Act on Stabilization of Production and Shipment of Vegetables）, 昭和四十一年,法律第百三号,（Act No. 103 of 1966）: We are striving for planned production and shipment such as vegetable price stabilization business. Radish grows lush even in winter and is shipped mainly from December to March. It is said that the shipping time is decided by dividing into the conventional Miura radish (White), Winter radish and Spring radish, and the cultivation method is decided for each variety. Producers strives for proper use of chemical fertilizers, healthy soil preparation, and soil conservation. Competitive plant, green manure crop planting, manure building installation. There is no dedication to ensuring a stable organic fertilizer. There are seventeen collection and shipping areas in the jurisdiction, and Producers bring in individually selected radishes. The staff in charge inspects and receives the goods, and the union decides the shipping quantity by market and transports it to the market. For vegetables in Miura, the producers are thoroughly booked in the control management diary. We cultivate open-air cultivation that makes full use of the warm nature of the Miura Peninsula to provide delicious radishes. Require an extraordinary effort and involvement. The boughs that bear most hang lowest. I think so too. The better the person, the more humble. Typical industry: Fisheries centered on the Misaki fishing port（Specified Type 3 Fishing Port; Designated on March 21, 1960. Act on Development of Fishing Ports and Grounds, Act No. 137 of 1950（漁業漁場整備法, 昭和二十五年, 五月二日, 法律第百三十七号,漁業法, 昭和二十四年, 法律第二百六十七号））: The term “Japanese port” as used in this Act shall mean those ports and harbors for which port and harbor area was publicly noticed, pursuant to the provision of paragraph 1, Article 9 of Ports and Harbors Act (Act No. 218 of 1950) including the cases where it is applied mutatis mutandis pursuant to paragraph 2, Article 33 of the said Act, and fishing ports as provided in Article 2 of Act on Development of Fishing Ports and Grounds (Act No. 137 of 1950）. In the Taisho era, a tuna longline fishing boat equipped with a diesel engine appeared, and it seems that the motorization and size of the fishing boat progressed rapidly. Kaneda Bay morning market: Direct sales of fishermen, farmers, and producers Seasonal ingredients and specialty products are crowded and crowded. Anniversary, every Sunday 5: 50-7: 30 May-September: Every Saturday 12: 00-16: 00, Ends as soon as sold out. December 29th (Sat) and 30th (Sun) at the end of the year, big sale at the end of the year (held from 5:50 as soon as there are no more products. Reopening date, from 5:30 am on Sunday, June 7, R2 (scheduled to be held every Sunday thereafter). A venerable place that has been held since 1987. Marine recreation, which shows a wide variety of areas, is also adding new attractions as a tourism product. Due to the influence of the Kuroshio Current, the winter is warm, with an average annual temperature of 15.5 degrees Celsius, annual rainfall of 1,500 mm, and annual sunshine hours of more than 2,100 hours, which belongs to the oceanic climate. The cultivated area is 1,791 hectares, of which more than 98% are fields (including orchards,2012). Agriculture centered on open-field vegetables that take advantage of the warm climate is active as a core industry. In particular, Japanese radish: Boasts the largest planted area, yield, and shipment volume in Japan,（Japanese radish with a greenish head）and cabbage（It is one of the best producing areas in Japan and produces autumn / winter cabbage and spring cabbage. It has the second oldest history after radish and is said to have started around 1890. In the olden days, winter cabbage was cultivated, which was flat and tightly headed. In the first half of the 1965's, the soft and sweet spring cabbage that has been cultivated until now was introduced in the winter cropping type. Raising seedlings on the ground is the mainstream. Compared to cell-molded seedlings, it takes time and effort to take measures against pests such as soil disinfection. However, since it does not require special facilities or materials, it can be manufactured at low cost. I heard that spring cabbage, which is planted in severe winter, which cannot be rooted by plug seedling, can also be raised. Since the optimum planting period is long, it is possible to plant plants even if the harvest of the previous crop is around due to typhoons or unseasonable weather.）are Famous as one of the largest production areas in Japan, and are famous as nationally designated production areas（1980）. There are many vegetables and fruits, but recently, autumn and winter vegetables such as broccoli and cauliflower are also produced. On October 1, 1965, “Hasse Town” and “Misaki Town” merged to form “Miura city Farmers' Cooperative.” Minamishitaura-machi Agricultural Cooperative will be added on April 1, 1969. “Spring cabbage” country designated production area ; Cultivation is the second oldest after Radish and is said to have started around 1892. Previous, the mainstream was the Toran（寒玉, 冬藍）Winter Cabbage, which was flat and tightly headed. The first half of the 1965's（Winter cropping） : Introduced the soft and sweet Spring cabbage that has been cultivated until now : Then, the cropping pattern with early spring was established. Spring cabbage is from 1965, ‘early spring cabbage’ is 1980. Seeds every year from late September to mid-October : Planted from late October to mid-February : It is expected to be harvested from early March to early May. It is characterized by being sweeter and softer than early spring cabbage. It is popular as a variety suitable for raw food such as salads. Cultivation at the right time for growth is essential for spring cabbage. The damage from pests is small, and the number of times the drug is sprayed is small. After spring cabbage, mid-early cabbage will also be shipped in mid-May. Root decay disease and damping-off are diseases that become a problem at the seedling raising stage. Drugs are commonly used to prevent this. Availability of solar heat as a resource conservation method with less burden on the environment-Part of the Miura Peninsula. In connection with that, we are working on a soil disinfection method. Soil solarization ; Apply fertilizer and maintain it so that it can be seeded. By covering the nursery with vinyl, the soil temperature rises. In addition, it can kill bacteria that are sensitive to high temperatures and control weeds. Cost reduction by using old vinyl used for cultivation of Melon and Watermelon. In addition, by covering, the surface of the soil can be kept moist. It becomes very good as a seed condition with summer wisdom. I hear that raising seedlings on the ground is the mainstream in production areas. Ground seedling raising ; Compared to cell-molded seedlings（plug seedling）, measures against pests such as soil disinfection are required. This is a lot of work and effort. However, it does not require any special facilities or materials, so it seems that it can be made at low cost. Plug seedling - Spring cabbage that is planted in the cold season when it cannot survive can also be raised. In addition, the optimum period for planting tends to be long. Planting is possible even if the harvest of the previous crop is around due to typhoons and inclemency. In the area, three croppings in two years rotation cropping are performed. And the turnover rate of the field is very high. In order to speed up shipping, “Intercession” in part. It's a task that must maintain the system. For intercropping, the ridges of radish or cabbage are set wider than usual. Planted between ridges before harvesting the previous crop ; Spring Cabbage. The previous radish is harvested from December to January. The planting time is around mid-November before that : Before the previous radish is harvested, it is intercropped in the furrows. There is also an example of planting spring cabbage as an intercropping of early spring cabbage. Harvest ; The stock is sufficiently headed and pushed from above to harden, and this is done in sequence. It is divided into about 3 times to wait for it to grow to large（L）size. Pack the stock in a 10 kg cardboard box（8 pieces L size center）and go to the collection and shipping area. Everyone cooperated（Agricultural cooperative / Municipal / prefectural related organizations）in 2008 to promote and practice GAP（Good Agricultural Practices）- Formed a promotion subcommittee. Workshops have been held since the fall of 2009. Distribute check sheets to each producer. Raised mainly using organic fertilizer ; Surrounded by the sea, it is exposed to plenty of sunlight and is soft even in winter. Approximately 3.1 million cases (Approximately 3,500 large trucks) have been shipped. The union sells sweet, fluffy and soft spring cabbage on an online shopping site. The freshness is the best because it is harvested in the morning and shipped that day. By all means, everyone should try it. It was cultivated from the middle of the Meiji era, and increased rapidly from around 1957 due to the spread of grafting cultivation. The varieties are “Fujihikari TR” and “Matsuri Bayashi 11” for Otama Ball, and “Himekansen” and “Madderball” for Small Ball Watermelon. Wax gourd and Lagenaria siceraria var. hispida are mainly used as rootstocks, and planting is from early April to early May, and there are two cultivation methods: tunnel pruning and non-pruning “Okkabuse cultivation”; Cultivation method that simplifies ventilation work by cultivating in a vinyl tunnel with ventilation holes. In addition, in order to improve the quality, there seems to be some prior cultivation in which a tunnel is made at the tip of the vine during the fruit set period. The harvest period is from late June to mid-August, and the yield is about 5,000 kg per 10 acre. Watermelons on the Miura Peninsula have a crispy texture and a unique juiciness, and are highly evaluated by the market and consumers. “Small ball watermelon from Miura city”, The flesh is as crisp as a large watermelon, and the skin is dark green with thick stripes and clear. The pericarp is thin and about 3 mm, but it has sufficient hardness and tends not to crack in a few things. It is known as a variety with significantly less fruit cracking during transportation and physiological fruit cracking during growth. Little is in season in summer, and the quality of the second fruit is the same as that of the first fruit. It has a sugar content of 13 degrees or more and a strong crispness, and has the best taste. The varieties are mainly grown in greenhouses and large tunnels, but they are also suitable for harvesting in August for outdoor cultivation and October to December for controlled cultivation. It has few seeds and is easy to eat, it is sweet to the edge of the skin, and it is kind to nature because the skin is thin and there is little kitchen waste.

Algorithm: For agricultural cooperatives, shipping distribution is one of the most troublesome tasks. It seems that it will grasp the amount of shipments shipped from farmers the next day, decide the shipment quantity for each delivery destination such as the market, and decide how to load the packages on which shipping company's truck. This work is basically done manually. In the case of Miura Agricultural Cooperative, the farmer first informs each shipping station of the next day's shipping schedule, and each shipping station contacts the agricultural cooperative. The agricultural cooperative entered the quantity received from all shipping offices into Excel, decided the quantity to be shipped to about 50 markets from Hokkaido to Osaka, and made a vehicle allocation schedule based on that. With the advancement of IT in agriculture, a system has emerged that significantly shortens the time required to create delivery schedules for shipments, which is one of the most difficult tasks of agricultural cooperatives. It takes only one second to do the work that took eight hours a day. It will be introduced by Miura City Agricultural Cooperative Association (hereinafter Miura City Agricultural Cooperative) and Cybozu Inc（Developed in collaboration with Cybozu Lab Co., Ltd. (Location: Chuo Ward, Tokyo, President: Teppei Sato, hereinafter Cybozu Lab). Temporarily implemented from April.）in Kanagawa Prefecture. It seems that it will be possible to schedule vehicle allocations faster and more efficiently than humans can calculate using a unique algorithm. I've heard that the part that takes the longest time is the part that schedules vehicle allocation. At the agricultural cooperative, it seems that the work of determining the shipment quantity for each market after grasping the shipment quantity of the farmer is completed in about 2 hours, but it seems that it takes about 8 hours for mid-career staff to make a schedule for dispatching the vehicle after that. Even a veteran takes 5 to 6 hours, which is a heavy burden, so I heard that this part was systematized in the winter of 2018 in cooperation with Cybozu. Ishii Food Co., Ltd., which manufactures and sells processed foods by additive-free cooking, announced on March 2, 2021 about hamburgers using cabbage produced in Miura City, which was developed in collaboration with Miura City, Kanagawa Prefecture and JA Miura City, Miura City and Chiba Prefecture. It is announced online by connecting the head office of Ishii Food Co., Ltd. in Funabashi City. The tomato sauce hamburger roll cabbage way using Kanagawa Miura cabbage, which was developed to solve regional issues by commercializing fresh cabbage as a long-lasting processed food, was released on February 1, 2021. When it was first sold at some supermarkets in Miura City from January 22, it seems that the number of shipments per week reached about 20,000. The number is equivalent to about half of the total population of Miura City, and it seems to have been a precedent that contributed to the sales channel by increasing the fresh sales volume of cabbage while gaining popularity from local consumers. The news shows the popularity of local agricultural products.

As one of the representative vegetables in Japan, it has a high existence value. I heard from producers that the closer it is to the leaves, the sweeter it is for grated daikon radish and raw food, the lower it is, the more spicy it is for condiment, and the middle it is for food cooked by boiling.

ビタミンK: 2-メチル-3-(3,7,11,15-テトラメチル‐2‐ヘキサデセニル)-1,4-ナフタレンジオン: C31H46O2; Activates bone osteocalcin（protein）and arterial matrix Gla（γ‐carboxyglutamic acid: C6H9NO6; Produced by carboxylation of some specific glutamates of blood coagulation proteins）protein.Calcium metabolism in the body（Physiological effects through a series of cells that occur throughout the body）Helps regulate, maintain bone and artery health. クロロゲン酸: C16H18O9, Chlorogenic acid is a well-known antioxidative compound. We investigated the content and behavior of chlorogenic acid derivatives with DPPH radical scavenging activity in sweet potato prepared by various cooking methods. A significant correlation was obtained between the chlorogenic acid content and DPPH radical scavenging activity. While the content and activity in sweet potato cooked with water were substantially retained, roasting in a convection oven resulted in their lower retention due to the higher temperature of around 200℃. We propose that chlorogenic acid could be effectively taken in sweet potato when cooked in a microwave oven or steamed, and also simmered with the cooking water after boiling.（Institute of Nutrition Sciences, Kagawa Nutrition University with Kagawa Nutrition University, Journal of cookery science of Japan 2005）. ペクチン: methyl ester: J.Braconnot,1825（Rf）: Galacturonic acid:carboxyl group: -C(=O)OH. セルロース:（C6H10O5)n; The main component of plant cell sell stones and plant fibers, and the most abundant carbohydrate on earth. リグニン:Sphingomonas paucimobilis SYK-6:bacterium: Mineralization; Effective resistance to decay and feeding damage.

It works to suppress gluconeogenesis（A pathway that slowly reverses glycolysis from lactic acid, pyruvic acid, amino acid, propionic acid, etc. to produce D-glucose.）in the liver and to oxidatively utilize glucose. A zwitterionic compound having a leucine structural isomer and a sec-butyl group (-ch (ch3) ch2ch3) in the side chain. C4H9NO3: 2-Amino-3-hydroxybutanoic acid): A zwitterionic compound having an Amino group (-NH2) and a carboxyl group (-COOH) and a hydroxyethyl group in the side chain. There are two diastereomers, but only the (2S, 3R) form is called L-threonine（Since it has two optically active centers, four isomers have been identified.）. It has been suggested that it may compete with alanine, Branched Chain Amino Acids, phenylalanine, serine, tryptophan, tyrosine etc. I hear that it is the newest in history. Cysteine: C3H7NO2S; 2-Amino-3-mercaptopropanoic acid: It works to suppress the production of Black melanin pigment and is abundant in trichome and hair. Inhibition ofthe enzyme tyrosinase.

The Miura Peninsula is long and narrow and extends to the southeast, and its inclination angle is the same. There are four seasons, there is little difference in latitude, and the impression of the terrain is boot-type. The area is famous for fish and shellfish caught in abundant fishing grounds surrounded by the sea on three sides of the south, east and west, and agricultural products that take advantage of the mineral-rich south wind and the slightly warm climate in the south.

Bishamon Cave Yayoi Period Residences: Not an ordinary sea cave. It seems to be a cave that has been used as a residence and grave since the Yayoi period. Japanese white radish Wholesaler Marutoku also seems to have a company nearby.
