Takinogawa Group: Divided into two groups: those that use leaves and stems, and thick types. Burdock dislikes acidic soil and is tolerant to heat and cold, but has poor moisture tolerance. Also, it suffers from repeated cropping problems, so if grown in the same field, It is desirable to leave a cultivation interval of 4 to 5 years. From now, from 2300 to 13000 years ago, during the Jomon period, the Torihama ruins in Wakasa Town, Seeds have been excavated from the Sannai Maruyama ruins in Aomori City and the Oshirodoba ruins in Otaru City. Agriculture, forestry and fisheries, which govern the backbone of Japan, are the key industries of Aomori Prefecture. Rice is created with the aim of creating a shocking flavor that will surprise everyone.

Japanese nationalism includes the ideology advocated by Katsunan KUGA during the Meiji period and the principle of "popular sovereignty" in the Japanese Constitution. Born in Hirosaki, he is involved in unequal treaties, the Ashio Mine Poisoning Incident, and an unequal society. He published the newspaper "Nippon'' for the happiness of the neglected people and for Japan's true independence. He is a man who fought through those difficult times with just a brush.

Even after realizing his death, Shiki Masaoka tearfully spoke of him as "THE benefactor of my life.''

He expressed that there is no one more virtuous.

【Product name】

Burdock from Aomori Prefecture

【Type】
Arctium lappa L.
【Production area】
Aomori Prefecture (JA Zennoh Aomori, Southern 4JA Council)
【Origin of name】
It is said to be derived from the Chinese word "burdock", which has been introduced from China as a medicinal herb since ancient times. From ancient times, "牛" has been used for grasses that resemble "蒡" burdock from large plants.
【Main features】
Burdock is well known as a vegetable peculiar to Japanese food that is not customary to eat in foreign countries, but at the same time, it is also well known as a vegetable with a large amount of imports. The direct reason for the sharp increase in imports from 1998 was that domestic yields decreased by nearly 20% year-on-year due to low temperatures and long rains in the summer of the same year and typhoons in September and October, and prices doubled or tripled. Although it has soared above, it seems that this is not the only reason for the increase in imports. It seems that a major reason was that Japanese import trading companies and seedling companies had been focusing on burdock production in China for several years already in order to make China an export base for burdock. It seems that the reason for focusing on burdock production in China was that the production capacity of burdock began to decline visibly from around 1990 due to the aging of producers in Japan. Even if the domestic production capacity of burdock has declined, it does not seem that the production of burdock has decreased in all regions of Japan. According to the alic survey, when comparing 1990 and 2005, the productivity is certainly declining in most of the major production areas, but it seems that only Aomori Prefecture showed a remarkable increase. There are several reasons why Aomori Prefecture grew while imports increased. For example, in the summer, cold wind descending from the mountains (in the Tohoku region in summer) a cold Pacific wind blows from the Pacific Ocean, so rice cultivation is often hit by cold damage and is affected by the weather. The cultivation of difficult root vegetables is flourishing, the soil of kuroboku, which is rich in loam volcanic ash and rich in rot, is suitable for burdock production, or with a cycle of 3 to 4 years, such as yam, carrots, and garlic. It seems that crop rotation is possible. However, the biggest reason is that JA in the prefecture supported the production of burdock and also focused on its sales. Among them, JA Oirase seems to have actively worked on production support and sales. As a result, the JA jurisdiction (Misawa City, Rokunohe Town, Kamikita District) seems to have become the largest burdock producing area not only in the prefecture but also in the whole country. Going back about 15 years, the quantity and amount accounted for almost a quarter of the total burdock shipment volume and amount in Aomori Prefecture, and more than half of the total burdock sales volume and amount of all JAs in the prefecture. Most of these shipments are currently in wholesale markets such as the central wholesale market. In the Kanto region, we ship to central wholesale markets other than Tokyo and some local wholesale markets, centering on the central wholesale markets of Tokyo such as the Daejeon market and Toshima market, and in other regions, mainly the central wholesale markets. It seems that they are shipping in the form of sending the cargo to the local wholesale market. In particular, looking at the sales aspect of JA Oirase, it seems that the sales destination area of burdock extends from Tohoku to Kyushu and all over the country except Hokkaido. The center is Kanto, with 35% of total shipments directed to the region, followed by 30% to Kyushu and 25% to Tokai. The total amount of destinations to the remaining Tohoku and Kansai areas is 10%. Of course, it is not just shipping over a wide area, but from the perspective of promoting advantageous sales, it seems that we are always trying to ship according to the difference in demand in each region. For example, relatively thick burdock is mainly shipped to Kanto, and thin burdock is shipped to Tokai and Kansai. Most of the shipments are shipped to the wholesale market, although mutual trust has been established for a long time, but it seems that it is not the only one. In the case of the wholesale market, it always sells the entire daily shipment on the same day, accepts shipments of all standards, and the price in the wholesale market seems to be the basis of transactions outside the wholesale market. When it comes to direct transactions with mass retailers, I heard that the standard products required by the other party are limited to the quantity required by the other party, and in many cases, the price will be the same as the wholesale price in the wholesale market. There is. However, although it is not limited to JA, it seems that not all burdock sales were left to the wholesale market. He also actively cultivated sales channels other than the wholesale market. It seems that the aim was to stabilize the management of farmers in the jurisdiction and further strengthen burdock production by increasing stable transactions over a long period of time, that is, contract transactions as much as possible. On July 17, 2013, 4JA (Towada Oirase, Yuuki Aomori, Oirase, Hachinohe) in the south district of Aomori participated and launched the "Prefectural South District 4JA Council". Chinese yam, garlic, burdock, etc. are common. The aim is to increase the income of farmers by strengthening sales of core products, improving cultivation techniques, and jointly purchasing materials. About 30 people including the 4JA union leader and full-time director attended the establishment general meeting held in Towada City on the 17th. At the time of its inauguration, JA Hachinohe's union leader Sasaki was appointed as the chairman, and Yuuki Aomori's Ozeki union leader and Towada Oirase's Takegahara union leader were appointed. Okayama has a history of competing between production areas, but if he participates in Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement, it will be a competition with overseas. There is a history of showing motivation to cooperate as a production area with a sense of crisis. JA Zen-noh Aomori was held on October 7, 2021 by the Kamitosan Wide Area Agricultural Promotion Association (Towada City, Misawa City, Yokohama Town, Noheji Town, Tohoku Town, Shichinohe Town, Oirase Town, Rokkasho Town, Rokkasho). Held a sales measures meeting in Towada, attended by JA staff and market participants. Reported that the planned shipment quantity for 2021 was set to 10200 tons. The growth of the 21st year production is set in consideration of the accumulated quantity from JA, considering that the roots tend to be short roots mainly in the M / 2M class from the result of the crop survey. Compared to the previous year's production, which had a smaller shipment volume than in normal years, the volume increased by 17%, and we decided to work on planned stable shipments to priority markets and implementation of distribution adjustments in consideration of regional / market characteristics and inventory quantity. It seems. In addition, it has been decided to expand the sales floor by conducting a promotion event by remote control at the store and a PR plan through TV programs, etc. toward the peak demand period. It seems that it was expected that the shipment volume of this prefecture's product would exceed the previous year's production as the stock of Kanto product was low. The Kamitosan Wide Area Agricultural Promotion Association was established in 1972 as the Kamikita Wide Area Vegetable Production and Shipping Promotion Association, and seems to have become the current organizational structure in 2018. The members seem to be 13 members of 9 municipalities, 3 agricultural cooperatives (Towada Oirase Agricultural Cooperative, Yuuki Aomori Agricultural Cooperative, Oirase Agricultural Cooperative), and Zen-noh Aomori Prefecture Headquarters. The Yasai Package Center, which is managed by JA Zen-Noh Aomori Prefecture Headquarters, seems to be expanding its yam, garlic and burdock cutting and packaging businesses by utilizing the stable supply from Japan's largest and most influential production areas. In particular, regarding yam, it seems that it has realized the securing of sales channels in urban areas by smoothly responding to the needs of actual consumers by increasing the number of items. It seems that the accumulation of responses to the needs of actual consumers has led to the expansion of the handling volume to a certain scale of 10% of the current system shipment volume. In addition to securing sales channels, these efforts seem to play an important role in understanding consumption patterns in urban areas. It is an easy package center that is expanding the handling volume, but it seems that there are still issues left. As for items other than yam, the handling volume is limited, so it seems that the response to the increase in demand of actual consumers is limited. It goes without saying that Aomori Prefecture is the production center of burdock, which boasts the largest shipment volume in Japan. Even in the prefecture, the Pacific side is the main production area, but there seems to be a reason why burdock cultivation is popular in this area. Normally, the climate is disadvantageous for the production of agricultural products, but it seems that it was perfect for burdock who prefers a cool climate. It is a gift of the wisdom of our predecessors. Burdock in this region is white and beautiful in color, has a strong scent, and is proud of being tight enough that the fiber does not get in the way. In addition, because it is grown in a cool climate, it requires less pest control and is very popular in the market. I would like to see an example of JA Oirase. For early spring sowing (sown from mid-April to early May), Tsuneyutaka burdock (Yanagawa Seeding Study Group Co., Ltd. (Omitama City, Ibaraki Prefecture): Gamma line to Riso yanagawa burdock at the Radiation Breeding Farm of the Agricultural Technology Research Institute in 1969. It is a fixed variety that has been cultivated through repeated selections at Ibaraki and Morioka farms. Riso yanagawa burdock (Yanagawa Study Group Co., Ltd .: Fruits and vegetables) is used for spring sowing (sown from early May to mid-June) after confirming that varieties that can be shipped early have characteristics that meet the breeding target in 1984. In 1948, Nagano, Chiba, Tokyo, Saitama, Aichi, etc. Obtain seeds from the prefecture and start a comparative study of quality. Among them, select one line obtained from Saitama and pay attention to the following points. Mainly cultivated). It seems that the harvest time is from the end of August to the middle of November when the long harvest begins, and the harvest is stored in the refrigerator and planned to be shipped until the middle of February. It is mainly sold to the market, but it seems that about 30 hectares of special cultivation of reduced pesticides and reduced chemical fertilizers are contract cultivation. It seems that they are shipped in two types: 10 kg cardboard and 4 kg plastic bags. Since the selection criteria are mainly for selling one or two bottles in retail, it seems that they are divided by the weight of one bottle and the number of bottles. In addition, since burdock has different tastes in each region, we ship burdock of the standard that the region prefers, mainly for small items with a thickness of M or more in the Kanto region and 2M or less in the west of the Chukyo region. Since the summer is cool in the Oirase area, there is little spraying of pesticides, and it seems that a system is in place to keep consumers relieved by keeping control records for all items. Among them, burdock has been certified by the "All-Agricultural Safety System" since 2004, and has undergone rigorous inspection by a third-party organization to meet consumer’s demands for safety and security, and is a production area where the whole picture of efforts can be glimpsed. It is also popular as a calorie and healthy food. Among them, it is widely known that it contains a large amount of dietary fiber. Dietary fiber has the effect of adsorbing carcinogens in the bowel, so it is expected to reduce the concentration of carcinogens and reduce the incidence of colorectal cancer. It seems to shorten the stagnation time of carcinogens. In addition, it has been clarified from the results of research that lignin in dietary fiber has an antibacterial effect and an effect of suppressing the development of cancer cells. In addition, it also excretes cholesterol, etc., so it seems to be effective in preventing arteriosclerosis. Furthermore, it is expected to be effective in cancer, constipation, stomach cramps, mouth ulcer, skin troubles, and recovery from fatigue.

Burdock produced in Aomori Prefecture has a good aroma and flavor, and is characterized by a crispy texture that is firm enough that the fiber does not get in the way. In addition, because of its high quality, it is highly evaluated by the market. The production volume is the highest in Japan, and the main production areas seem to be concentrated on the Pacific side such as Misawa City, Towada City, Oirase Town, and Rokunohe Town. The Pacific side has a cool summer climate with cold wind descending from the mountains in the summer, the number of pest control is small, and the heightened health boom in recent years has made it the most highly regarded and expanding production.

The season for burdock from Aomori prefecture is from September to November. Burdock seeds are sown from April to June and grown in the soil for an average of 130 to 150 days. After being harvested in early autumn, they are stored in the refrigerator and can be shipped almost all year round. In addition, burdock, which is a root vegetable, is a crop when "making soil" greatly affects the quality. In Aomori Prefecture, from fiscal 2007, "the healthiest soil preparation campaign in Japan (in Aomori Prefecture, in promoting the" aggressive agriculture, forestry and fisheries industry "that emphasizes sales from the consumer's point of view, the safety, security and quality that consumers demand. In order to strengthen the production area system that can stably produce and supply various agricultural products, all farmers in the prefecture will work on "healthy soil preparation" which is the basis of agricultural production in close cooperation with municipalities and related organizations. We are developing the "Japan's Healthyst Soil Making Campaign" aiming for this. From 2022, we will carry out the campaign based on the 3rd term "Japan's Healthyest Soil Making" promotion plan formulated in March 2022. Implementation. In order to prepare the soil environment where crops grow well, based on the soil diagnosis, organic materials such as compost and soil improvement materials are properly applied to the agricultural land, and appropriate soil management that combines deep cultivation and rotation is carried out. It seems that soil will be created with a good balance of physical, chemical and biological properties. In recent years, there are concerns that farmers' motivation for soil preparation will decline due to the aging of farmers and labor shortages. While the prices of fertilizers, fuels, agricultural materials, etc. are on the rise, the utilization of organic materials such as proper fertilization and compost based on soil diagnosis will lead to the practice of stable agricultural management. Soil) , and while conducting soil diagnosis and effectively utilizing organic resources such as rice straw and compost, it seems that they are working to create well-balanced and healthy soil according to the characteristics of crops and the condition of the field. This healthy soil allows the crops to grow robustly, producing good quality, delicious burdock by skilled farmers.

In Aomori prefecture, the cultivation of vegetables using the wide and abundant cultivated land and the cool summer climate has been a problem. The produced vegetables are shipped fresh to consumption areas such as Kanto and Kansai using pre-cooled storage facilities and highways. It responds to consumer preferences and needs because it produces less pests and does not use much pesticides. It seems that mainly root vegetables such as excellent japanese yam, garlic, and burdock, as well as vegetables such as green onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, and cabbage that were suitable for the summer. In addition, the production value of vegetables is the highest in the Tohoku region, and the shipment volume of garlic and burdock is the highest in Japan.

Thunen's Agricultural Location Theory: As a farmer, Thunen came up with this theory while thinking about what kind of farmland should be cultivated in order to maximize profits. J.H. von Thunen (1826) The Isolated State on Agriculture and the National Economy. He considers the selling price, the wages, and the transportation costs as raw materials, of which the transportation costs, which are determined by the distance from the market, are the factors attributable to the land itself. For urban consumers, the value of each type of agricultural product is the same everywhere. Value of land = Reflected in land rent, difference from land rent in the furthest edge of the market area = positional difference in land rent, transportation costs, land rent, management method. Only low-cost (= extensive). If you don't manage it, the market price will be in the red. Farmers who are closest to the market can produce high-priced crops through intensive management that takes "time and effort" as much as they can save on transportation costs. For example, rice cultivation, which is representative of extensive low-cost agriculture in Japan, is most advantageous if it is grown and sold in the immediate vicinity of the market as it does not incur transportation costs. However, no matter how intensively it is grown, rice cannot be sold at a high price due to the high distribution volume. In the immediate market, there is no choice but to switch to agricultural management (horticultural crops) where higher prices can be expected. Agricultural management system: The rate of decrease in rent bearing capacity is steeper for intensive farming and gentler for extensive farming.

【Product name】
mini osuzu
【Type】
Solanum lycopersicum var. cerasiforme
【Origin of name】

Released by TAKII & CO., LTD. Around 1975. Small tomatoes: petit tomatoes have become widely known. However, although it was made in earnest in the early Showa era, it didn’t go into mass production.

【Production area】
Kawaminami Town, Tsuno Town, Koyu County, Miyazaki Prefecture (JA Osuzu, JA Miyazaki Economic Federation)
【Main features】

JA Osuzu has production areas such as Kawaminami Town, Koyu District, and Tsuno Town, which are representative of Miyazaki Prefecture. However, due to the aging of farmers and the spread of crops (lettuce, sweet corn) that compete with carrots in cropping season, there are 57 members (average age 48) and the cropped area has decreased to 89 ha. In many cases, many farmers cultivate carrots in the area as a follow-up crop to rice, and the cultivar for fruit juice is "Kuroda Gosun'' by the Nagasaki Gosun Ginseng Incubation Association because of its color tone. It seems to be From mid-August to mid-September, when the rice harvest is finished, 40,000 to 45,000 grains are sown per roll (row width 120 cm, spacing 7 cm, planting 4 rows), and harvesting starts in early December. It seems that it will be completed by the beginning of March. The actual yield was 3.7 to 3.8 tons against the target of 5 tons per roll (management policy of the promotion center). In addition, most of the harvested carrots are sold to Miyazaki Prefectural Agricultural Cooperative Fruits Juice Co., Ltd. through systematic joint sales through each agricultural cooperative and Keizairen. According to the standards set by the Miyazaki Prefecture Horticultural Brand Inspection Association, it must be bright red, have a sugar content of 7.5 degrees or more, be free from toxic contamination such as residual pesticides, have a length of 3 cm to 8 cm or less, and a length of 10 cm to 23 cm. It seems that it is only defined as a healthy fruit and does not have a class division like market shipment). As a result, the post-harvest adjustment work of the farmers is considerably simplified, and it seems that the shipment is also loaded with soil in a 1-ton container rented by Miyazaki Prefectural Agricultural Cooperative Fruits Juice Co., Ltd. These standards and the simplification of shipping adjustments have reduced the working hours per roll to about 84 hours, compared to 237 hours in Chiba Prefecture, which is also a carrot-producing area in winter. This seems to make it possible to deal with processing raw materials at a level below the market price. Miyazaki Prefecture Agricultural Cooperative Fruits Juice Co., Ltd. has factories in Koyu District (headquarters factory), which is the raw material production area for carrots, and Miyakonojo and Kobayashi districts. Imported in a 1t container. From December to March, which is the harvest season for winter carrots, raw carrots are received, washed, sorted, blanched, refined, and stored frozen as "carrot puree." and sold to other beverage manufacturers. In addition, the company uses 5% of the carrots procured as raw materials for its own brand products, and the rest is used as raw materials for brand products of beverage manufacturers with which it has an Original Equipment Manufacturing (Manufacturer) contract. In addition, many winter carrot production areas in Miyazaki Prefecture ship a part of the harvested amount for processing raw materials on the premise that they are generally shipped to the market for raw consumption. Agricultural cooperatives and other related entities work together to determine the planting area based on the procurement plan of the user, Miyazaki Prefecture Agricultural Cooperative Fruits Juice Co., Ltd., and adopt a system for procuring harvested products. In this way, in a system that is highly dependent on transactions and closely linked, there is no problem if production is carried out according to plan, but if crop conditions change due to unseasonable weather, it is likely to lead to raw material procurement problems. It seems that there is also. JA Osuzu is located along the Hyuga Sea in the middle of Miyazaki Prefecture. To the west you can see Mt. Osuzu, the origin of the name of JA. The land of Osuzu, which is nurtured by the tropical sun and greenery, produces a variety of vegetables and fruits throughout the year. It seems that the agricultural and livestock products produced here are shipped not only within the prefecture but also all over the country. Osuzuyama Prefectural Natural Park centered around Mt. Osuzu, and a group of waterfalls including Yatogi Falls are located within the jurisdiction. On the other hand, there are fishing ports in Kawaminami and Tsuno on the coastline, and seafood is abundant. Tsuno's sea urchin'' and Kawaminami's "Lagocephalus wheeleri Abe, Tabeta & Kitahama(Unlike tiger puffer fish, it has a supple white flesh similar to chicken tenderloin. If you lightly sear it, grill it, and eat it with ponzu sauce, the elegant flavor will spread in your mouth.)'' are particularly famous, and I sometimes eat them. There is also a surfing center in Ikurahama Nature Park, and the straight coastline seems to be one of the hot spots for surfers both inside and outside the prefecture. Also, Tsuno wine, which is brewed from locally produced grapes, has received high praise overseas and is very popular, and during the sales period at Tsuno Winery, which overlooks the Hyuga Sea, it is crowded with many customers. The Miyazaki Prefecture brand certified crops seem to strive to reduce pesticides through thorough cultivation management such as the use of insect nets, insect repellent sheets, and natural pesticides. In addition, the food development laboratory of Keizairen conducts regular inspections of residual pesticides to check whether pest control is appropriate. Participate in the ODD movement (appropriate application of organic matter, deep cultivation, soil diagnosis). Do not apply excessive fertilizers, and apply appropriate fertilizers necessary for the growth and harvesting of crops. Cherry Tomatoes: Acquired brand production area certification on October 22, 2001, product brand name: "Miyazaki Eco Cherry Tomatoes", Mini Tomato Subcommittee 35 producers Area 12.5 ha. Mini Tomato Group 11 producers Area 7.4 ha. The JA Osuzu mini tomato section usually begins shipping Cherry Tomatoes in late September. The variety is Summer Senka Cherry Tomatoes. It seems to be characterized by a glossy dark red color and a beautiful spherical fruit shape. The 2020 crop escaped damage from the typhoon, and it seems that the fine weather continued and the growth was good. In the subcommittee, 36 people planted Summer Senka Tomatoes and Kosuzu Cherry Tomatoes on 13.5 hectares. The first peak is around mid-November, and it seems that 2021 will reach its peak in April-May. According to Takii & Co., Ltd., the cherry tomatoes "summer senka tomatoes" to be introduced this time is a deep red and glossy fruit color. The fruit color is bright red and seems to have a beautiful luster. The fruit weight seems to be 15 to 20 g. The fruit shape is a beautiful sphere and should be well-matched. It has a high sugar content and seems to have a particularly good taste. The sugar content is 8 to 10 degrees, which is stable from the lower stage to a higher sugar content than "Coco cherry tomatoes", and it seems that the taste is particularly excellent due to the fine meat quality. Also, it is easy to cultivate and it seems that there are few glasses. The grass is medium-strength and gentler than "Coco cherry tomatoes", and it is easy to cultivate with less occurrence of abnormal main stems (glasses). From Takii Seedling Co., Ltd., in principle, the market is cultivated in a facility. It is suitable for all cropping types such as controlled cultivation, but it seems that it is always better to carry out rain shelter cultivation (facility cultivation) in order to prevent fruit cracking and improve quality in economic cultivation. In long-term cultivation, it seems that the amount of nitrogen fertilizer applied to the original fertilizer is 10 to 15 kg per 10 a when a large amount of original fertilizer is used for long-stepping of 15 or more stages. The nitrogen component is Coco medium: Coconut fiber is crushed into small pieces to remove salt. It looks like soil, but it feels soft to the touch and can contain more air than soil. It contains a lot of air. It is important to include it, and it seems that the roots can grow quickly by supplying a large amount of oxygen to the rhizosphere. Rock wool is another famous medium that uses a solid medium for hydroponic cultivation. It is highly breathable and seems to be one of the most suitable mediums for hydroponic cultivation. The raw material is slag (when the target metal is obtained from ore or crude metal, vein stones and impurities are separated from the metal in a molten state. The amount is increased by 10 to 20% from mainly siliceous oxide melts), rocks, and limestones produced by adding a solvent for the purpose, which are melted at high temperature and fibrous. The best rootstock is a variety that has stamina until the latter half of cultivation. The fruit color is deep red and has a beautiful luster. The fruit weighs 15 to 20 g, and the fruit shape is a beautiful sphere with a good impression. We ship products with good sugar content and acidity, and fine meat quality. It seems that the production area is forcibly cultivated in the coastal area in the fall and winter, and cultivated in the high cold mountainous area to avoid rain in the summer and autumn, and shipped year-round. In addition, Ruyobetsu Village is raising seedlings in a dedicated green house installed in a well-ventilated and well-drained place. Put up an insect net, raise seedlings for about 40 days, and plant seedlings so that flower buds can be seen. It seems that water is carefully managed until it takes root, and watering is performed in small increments and more frequently from the fruit enlargement period to the harvest period. It seems that he is trying to remove the leaves so that the fruits are well exposed to sunlight. Cf Kosuzu Cherry Tomatoes from Vilmorin Mikado Co., is a mini tomato with less cracking and good taste. It has medium leaves with short internodes and strong grass, but it is insensitive to soil moisture and fertilizer, and it seems to be easy to cultivate because it is difficult to grow stems that do not have cores or abnormal stems. The flower clusters often branch into 2-3 branches near the 3rd and 4th stages, and have excellent fruit setting, with 20-25 fruits per flower cluster. The fruit weight is 15-20 g, and the fruits are well-aligned and labor-saving. The fruit color is dark red and slightly glossy, and the packaging is very beautiful. The taste is sweet and rich and delicious. The fruit is hard and has excellent workability during harvesting and adjustment, as well as transportability and shelf life. There seems to be very little splitting. It is also highly resistant to ToMV (Tm-2a), wilt race 1, and leaf blight (Cf9). Moderate disease resistance to root-knot nematodes. Moderately resistant to spot disease. Appears to be suitable for long wintering, semi-forcing and controlled cultivation. On November 21, 2022, at the request of the Promotion Bureau, JA Osuzu held an exchange meeting for new agricultural trainees and three students from Takanabe Agricultural High School outside the prefecture (Shizuoka Prefecture, Tokyo Prefecture, Kyoto Prefecture). It seems that the purpose of the training greenhouse is to deepen the understanding of agriculture in Miyazaki Prefecture through the experience of harvesting green peppers, the introduction of new farming systems, and interaction with trainees, and to motivate them to work in agriculture in the prefecture in the future. In the same year, on Sunday, November 27th, the 5th JA Osuzu Harvest Festival was held at the Fujimi Athletic Stadium parking lot in Tsuno Town. This was the second joint event with the Tsuno Town Industrial Festival. Blessed with fine weather on the day of the festival, it was a perfect day for the festival, and it seems to have gained popularity. It was held for the first time in three years due to an epidemic, but it seems that about 5,000 people came to the venue and showed a lively atmosphere. From the same JA, it seems that the livestock department, the agriculture and gardening department, the youth department, and the women's department have opened stores. Among them, the livestock department sold beef and pork at special prices, and it seems that long lines were forming even before the festival started. It sold out in about an hour from the start and was a great success. Sales of fresh vegetables, fried soba, curry, and demonstration sales of joint purchases are also popular. On the side of the Tsuno Industry Festival, Saroma Town, Hokkaido, a friendship city of Tsuno Town, sells grilled scallops. It seems that this place is very popular and there was a line. Kawaminami Town, Koyu District has a total area of 90.12 km2. Located almost in the center of Miyazaki Prefecture facing the Hyuga Sea, it has a population of 15,501 (as of May 1, 2018). It boasts one of the largest agricultural production volumes in the country. Based on the townspeople's rich nature and human kindness, it seems that they are aiming for "town development with a new frontier spirit" in order to remember the strong pioneering spirit of their predecessors and further develop. The Kawaminami Wetland is popular as a wetland that spreads out in the Shimbashi district in the central part of Kawaminami Town. It is close to Route 10, about 50 meters above sea level, and has an area of about 33,000 square meters. It was designated as a national natural monument in 1974, and there are 78 families and 298 types of plants, of which about 110 are wet plants, of which about 50 are rare plants. Around 1989, eutrophication progressed so much that the water surface of Shimbashi Reservoir could no longer be seen, and the risk of loss was high if things continued as they were. Currently, improvement of the wetland environment is progressing, and it seems that the growth and restoration of various wetland plants have been confirmed. In particular, Japan's only wild "Hyugahoshikusa", which was thought to be extinct, has been revived for the first time in about 50 years, delighting the eyes of visitors. In addition to plants, we also confirmed the inhabitation of "Japanese killifish". Since the observation trail was constructed, visitors seem to be enjoying a stroll in the quiet environment. I heard that the patients of the adjacent hospital are also taking a walk for rehabilitation. Tsuno Town, Koyu District is a small town overlooked by the Pacific Sea of Hyuga and Mt. Osuzu. Mt. is the first waterfall group in Japan to be designated as a place of scenic beauty, with more than 30 waterfalls in the clear river that flows between the trees full of greenery. The town is also called the "City of Agriculture" and produces many delicious agricultural and livestock products. The Tsuno wine made from the specialty "grape" seems to be a proud wine that continues to win awards in domestic and overseas competitions. Tsuno Shrine, the Ichinomiya of Hyuga Province, surrounded by the forest of the shrine. It is a historic shrine where Emperor Jinmu prayed for when he moved to the east. In addition, the roadside station "Tsuno", which is connected to Tsuno Shrine by a red good luck bridge, seems to be bustling with many people who come here to buy fresh local vegetables, fruits, meat and fish, and their processed products. It is said that Tsuno Shrine was built when Emperor Jinmu visited Miyazaki six years before he ascended the throne, praying for peace in the land, peace at sea, and prosperity in war. It seems that Omitaka no Mikoto (also known as Okuninushi no Mikoto), who is famous for the myth of "The White Rabbit of Inaba", is enshrined as a deity. There are various Shinto rituals in the company, and it is full of highlights. First of all, before entering the precincts, there is a stone along with the offertory box. This is the "god's stone" that was set up for the Ishimochi Shinji ritual, and it is said that if you visit the shrine while holding this stone and place it in the stone store behind the main shrine, your wish will come true. In addition, stroking the Daikoku-sama statue with wishes is expected to bring healing from illness and prosperous business. It is said that the "patting rabbit", which is derived from the white rabbit of Inaba, has benefits such as good health. Tsuno Shrine also has a wonderful view, and a wide approach lined with trees seems to welcome visitors. Just walking in the orderly and beautiful environment cleanses the soul, but it seems that the priests spend more than an hour cleaning every morning. Throughout its long history, it has been valued by the locals as a place of devotion that has been cherished while being involved with many people. Tsuno Town Kawakita is located in the central part of Miyazaki Prefecture, in the Tsuno River Basin, and faces the Sea of Hyuga to the east. During the Edo period, it was the territory of the Takanabe clan, and it seems that it consisted of Kawakami Township (6 villages) and Tsuno Town (machiba) out of Nobeppu Rokugo, which was controlled locally. Former high and former territory (a domain that existed in Hyuga Province. Present-day eastern part of Koyu County, Miyazaki Prefecture (Takanabe Town, Kawaminami Town, Kijo Town, Tsuno Town, Mimitsu in Hyuga City), Kushima City, and Miyazaki City (Uriuno and Kuraoka areas). Part), owned Kunitomi Town (Kiwaki)), Kawakami Village and Miie 3,867 koku of rice. Mr. Hirabe, the author of Hyuga Topography, surveyed this village in June 1878. According to this book, the village is about 3 ri from east to west, 2 ri from north to south, 18 towns, 1,021 households, and a population of 5. , 047, 580 cows, 1,849 horses, and 53 Japanese boats. It seems that Tateno 25 and Tsuno Town were by far the most numerous towns. In this "Hyuga Topography", Tsuno Town is one character of Kawakita village, but it seems that Tsuno Town was under the control of the townspeople in the Takanabe clan in the Edo period and was distinguished from the village of Kawakita. Miyazaki Prefectural Ordinance No. 17 of 1889 stipulated that Tsuno Town and Kawakita Village would be merged into a rural village, and administratively it was not included in Kawakita Village. From 1920, Miyakonojo Village became Tsuno, and Kawakita became a section of village of Tsuno Town. In 2004, the JA Osuzu Mini Tomato Group was awarded the 34th Japan Agriculture Award for its efforts to create a production center through environmental recycling-oriented cultivation that unites the region. The "Miyazaki Eco Mini Tomatoes" produced by this group are so popular that they sometimes fail to ship in time for their intense flavor and consistent quality, as if they were born from the tropical sun. It's safer and more secure. Most of the 38 members of the division were certified eco-farmers. The fact that we formed a subcommittee was because the quality was so uneven that it was not recognized as a production area. While discussing with everyone, it seems that if they were going to do it anyway, in order to cope with the price slump due to imported vegetables, they started making ideal mini tomatoes to make something that was completely safe and secure that could never be imitated in other countries. It seems that there was also a thought that cheap is not good. The biggest point is making soil. The Green Gaia Experimental Plant (reduced pesticides and organic farming), which was built by Tsuno Town and others, is one of the trends, but from the standpoint of farmers, we are prepared to take on a lot of labor. The reason for the group's success is that we were able to share the goal of creating a reliable production area with the community. By using , the soil becomes richer than you can see, and environmental recycling cultivation that returns local garbage to the soil is also realized. It seems that they do not use chemicals to exterminate pests that occur in the soil, and use solar heat disinfection that keeps the vinyl greenhouse closed and high temperature during the midsummer off season.

The JA Osuzu Mini Tomato Subcommittee received the 34th Japan Agricultural Award in recognition of its creation of a production area through environmental recycling-oriented cultivation that unites the region. The Miyazaki Eco Cherry Tomatoes produced by this group boasts such a strong flavor and consistent quality that it is as if they were born from the tropical sun, and are so popular that they sometimes cannot be shipped in time. Practicing reduced pesticide cultivation that is significantly stricter than the prefectural standards. At that time, all 38 members of the department were farmers who were certified as eco-farmers. Good soil is essential for good agricultural products. In collaboration with the "Green Gaia Experimental Plant" constructed by Tsuno Town, Koyu District, etc., the fungal fertilizer made from household garbage produced here will enrich the soil in a way that makes it unrecognizable, and the local community will grow. Environmental recycling type cultivation that returns garbage to the soil is also realized. Green Gaia, which Tsuno Town has been experimenting with since 2000, is a processing plant that utilizes fermented raw garbage to create soil. Approximately 400 kg of raw garbage per day, which is transported from specific businesses such as supermarkets, is fermented for half a day. It is used in two ways: applying it directly to farmland as a soil improver, and mixing it with livestock manure to make fully matured compost. When they return to the soil, the field is covered with pure white mycelium in about 6 days. It's called fermentation with the soil, and it seems that the use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers will inevitably decrease because the roots of the crops grow a lot. JA's tomatoes and cucumbers, as well as the grapes that make Tsuno wine, are also grown using this method. Good-tasting crops will become the town's brand, and combustible waste will be reduced. In the future, it is expected that awareness of resource recycling will increase, such as promoting the use of this technology by farmers.

We strive to reduce pesticide use through thorough cultivation management, such as the use of insect nets, insect repellent sheets, and the use of natural pesticides. In addition, the food development laboratory of Keizairen conducts regular inspections of residual pesticides to check whether pest control is appropriate. Participate in the ODD movement (appropriate application of organic matter, deep cultivation, soil diagnosis). Do not apply excessive fertilizers, and apply appropriate fertilizers necessary for the growth and harvesting of crops.

The terrain consists of mostly flat plains and mountainous areas facing Mt. Osuzu. In addition, the temperature is warm throughout the year with an average annual temperature of 17.8°C, and many agricultural products are produced in the jurisdiction due to the natural conditions suitable for agriculture.

The oldest soy sauce brewery in Noda City has been passed down through the Iida clan of the Takeda Kaigenji clan. Kawanakajima Tamari aged soy sauce was started in 1661 by the 19th generation Hyozaemon Takahashi. The following year, in the second year of the Kanbun era, Shichizaemon Mogi started making miso, and in 1822, Gonbei Konno started brewing local soy sauce in Imakami, Umezato Village - Niwa Juroemon Tadaaki (Chozan Issai) Tengukyoron, 1727

The Osugi faith, whose main shrine is Osugi Shrine in Awa, Inashiki City, Ibaraki Prefecture, is also known as "Amba-sama" or "Osugi-sama," and has been widely worshipped around the Tonegawa River system and along the Pacific coast as a god for safe water traffic and the warding off epidemics. In Noda City, sandwiched between the Tone River and the Edogawa River, Osugi festivals are held in many areas in the summer, and the faith is still alive in people's lives.

The regular Chiba Prefectural Assembly began a question on June 2, 2022, and Governor Kumagai seems to have stated that "we will promptly prepare for households with many children so that they can implement it within the year" regarding the free school lunch fee. In cooperation with the prefecture's municipalities, it seems that they are aiming to implement it within the fiscal year by compiling the requirements for households to make it free of charge. For households with many children, yard regulations are also being considered. Since 1772, he has been engaged in the soy sauce brewing business under the name of Kashiwaya, and in 1887, the 5th generation Shichiroemon Mogi was appointed as the president when the Noda Soy Sauce Brewing Association was formed. In 1822, the first Fusagoro MOGI abolished his own business and became the guardian of the Mogi Shichirouemon family. Noda City, Chiba Prefecture : The area is 103.55 km2, and topographically, the Tone River and the Edo River branch off at the northernmost tip of the city, and the Tone River to the east, the Edo River to the west, and the Tone Canal to the south surround the river on three sides. It is about 60 km around this embankment, and it is well known as a natural environment that is ideal for walking and jogging as a cycling course. Form a town rich in history, culture and nature. Looking back on history, the northern part prospered around the castle of the Sekiyado Domain, which had a river barrier as the gateway to the big city of Edo, and the southern part was the soy sauce brewing industry that supported the food culture of “Edokko” along with agriculture. In addition, the soy sauce brewing industry has developed, and even now, the urban area is dotted with buildings from the Taisho Era to the early Showa Period, and it is very emotional. In addition, there is a memorial hall that honors former Prime Minister Kantaro SUZUKI, who led the Pacific War to the end, and Mr. Kinjiro SEKINE, the 13th master of modern shogi, who has established a system of talented masters. The Edo Shogunate placed great importance on Sekiyado Castle and placed Fudai Daimyo in Sekiyado for generations. It is well known that the feudal lord lasted for eight families and 23 generations until the end of the Edo period. Among them, Kuze's reign was the longest, and he occupied an important position in the shogunate as he took important positions such as the old and middle ages. Sekiyado Castle in the Edo period hardly exists, but there is a “Chiba Prefectural Sekiyado Castle Museum” that imitates the castle tower, and I have visited it several times. While introducing the history of river improvement and water transportation under the theme of the history of the clan and “Rivers and related industries,” it is an important facility for exhibiting materials related to the people in the basin and the rivers and learning about their hometown. Mr. Kantaro SUZUKI was born in Fuseo, Izumi Province (currently Sakai City, Osaka Prefecture), the eldest son of the Sekiyado Domain, Yutetsu SUZUKI(His maiden name is KURAMOCHI, commonly known as Tamenosuke.), and returned to Sekiyado in 1872. It seems that he moved to. In 1923, he was admiral of the Navy, and later served as Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Fleet and Chamberlain of Emperor Showa. He was appointed Prime Minister on April 7, 1945, leading the Pacific War to the end of the war, and although he was in office for only four months, he returned to Sekiyado after a major role and lived a quiet life. In his hometown, it is a famous story that he started the “Agriculture Study Group” focusing on dairy farming using grass on the riverbed and held lectures by specialized lecturers by taking advantage of the characteristics of the area. Therefore, Noda City is still active in dairy farming and takes root in the area. The “Kantaro Memorial Hall” was opened in 1963 to widely introduce the achievements of the old man, and many relics such as formal wear and daily life items are exhibited, fascinating as a valuable museum. Sekine has been a strong shogi player since he was a child, and by the time he entered elementary school, he had no match for the locals. At the age of 11, he moved to Tokyo with the aim of becoming a professional shogi player, and after repeated training, he was promoted to 4th dan in 1891 and 8th dan in 1905. It was around this time that the third match with Sankichi Sakata, who became the model for the movie “Osho(VS Sankichi SAKATA; 吹けば飛ぶよな 将棋の駒に: コロムビアレコード, The lyrics are Yaso Saijo, the composition is Tooru FUNAMURA, and the song is Hideo MURATA, released in November 1961.)”. This is a Japanese movie released on October 18, 1948, and it is no longer produced. In 1921, after becoming a 13th generation master at the age of 53, he abolished the hereditary system and the whole life master system that had continued for 340 years, and established a championship master system. He laid the foundation for the prosperity of today's shogi world, such as establishing the Japan Shogi Taiseikai, the predecessor of the current Japan Shogi Association, and is widely known as the “father of modern shogi.” As an information dissemination base for shogi, the “關根 Meijin Memorial Hall” constantly displays about 40 items related to masters, and holds about 2,400 books on shogi from the Edo Period to the present day. Next to the memorial hall, there is a 52 tatami mat room where anyone can easily point to shogi, which is unbearable for fans. もの知りしょうゆ館 : At the museum opened by “Kikkoman” in the factory, you can enjoy learning about the color, taste, and aroma of soy sauce while observing the factory until the soy sauce is made. 野田市教育委員会(鶴奉) 2021 “令和2年度 野田市内遺跡発掘調査報告” : 上野馬込遺跡, 第15次(花井新田字三丁歩), 宅地造成, 集落, 古墳 / 近世(細分不明) 時代. 山崎貝塚周辺遺跡, 第25次, 分譲宅地, 集落, 縄文時代, 縄文時代土器. 中野台貝塚, 第5次 / 本調査(字行人谷), 個人住宅, 貝塚, 縄文時代, 縄文時代竪穴建物1, 土坑, Pit, 縄文時代: 土器, 縄文時代: 石器. 岡部館跡(山崎字梅台), 宅地造成, 城館, 中世(細分不明), 近世(細分不明) 時代, 古墳時代土坑1, 縄文時代土器, 石器, 古墳時代中期土師器. 東新田野馬土手(山崎字殿山), 戸建分譲, 中世 (細分不明), 近世(細分不明) 時代, 中世~近世野馬堀1. 山崎貝塚周辺遺跡, 第26次, 個人, 集落, 縄文. 岩名新屋敷遺跡(字宮田), 個人住宅, 縄文 / 中世(細分不明), 近世(細分不明) 時代, 中近世溝1 , 縄文時代土器, 中近世土師質土器. 溜井遺跡, 第4次(吉春字溜井), 駐車場, 縄文 / 中世 (細分不明), 近世 (細分不明) 時代, 中近世塚1. In the early Edo period, the goods transportation route from Choshi Port to Edo via the Tone River passed through Omori, Shirai, Kamagaya, and Yawata by land between Kinoshita and Hongyotoku. Due to the improvement of the Tone River channel and the renovation of the Edo River, boat transportation was opened and this gradually became more important. Kinoshita and Hongyo Tokuma were loaded with horses, and there was a process of switching to boat transportation. In 1716, the boat routes of Fusa, Matsudo, and Edo were developed, and the land routes gradually declined, and villages petitioned the shogunate. As the population of Edo increases, vegetable production in nearby rural areas expands. The production areas expanded in parallel to the plateau area in the western part of Edo and the island field area in the east, but the production area in the eastern part expanded from Adachi / Minami Katsushika to Higashi Katsushika. One of the ways of spreading was to head for Yawata and Kamagaya by land, and the other was to head for Ichikawa and Matsudo by waterway. At the end of the Edo period, the routes between these production areas and Edo were complicated in the western part of Higashi Katsushika, and it seems that boat transportation was made from Yamanaka / Funabashi and bad transportation was made from Ichikawa / Matsudo. The types of vegetables produced are those from nearby production areas that have expanded their production areas, but many of them have already been made for private use in the production areas of Higashi Katsushika. Most of them lack records of introduction, but some are said to be folklore. In 1801, Chozaemon Hanazawa of Yabashira Village Ohashi introduced Mitsuba from Mizumoto Village (currently Katsushika Ward) and started cultivation, and from 1804, Mr. Magoemon Ukiya of Yabashira Village Wanagaya started cultivating Mitsuba. With shipments to Senju, the nearby production areas have expanded from the island fields to the plateau areas. It is said that the shipment to Senju was done with a crap and a shoulder. In 1803, Ichikawa made melons, watermelons, radishes, eggplants, etc. and sold them to Edo through the banks of the Gyotoku River by boat transportation. Vegetable production in Higashi Katsushika seems to have increased sharply during the Kyoho year in response to the increase in demand in Edo. According to Ichikawa, “Around this time, the demand for vegetables in Edo increased, and local farmers tried to increase their productivity by using lower fertilizer to meet this demand.” From Genroku to Hoei, farmers near Edo used to fetch the inhabitants' lower fertilizer for free, but after that, they were charged a fee and changed to purchasing. The landlord / landlord owns the right to sell the lower fertilizer, and sells the actual product to the merchant, who sells the purchased lower fertilizer to the suburbs. It seems that the ship was called “Kasai ship”. The shogunate is monitoring the sale of manure, and it is recorded that in 1792 the shogunate ordered the Kasai ship to reduce the price of manure. The use of manure in vegetable cultivation gradually became widespread, for example, in 1838 in Higashi Katsushika: It is said that the peasant family of Kashiwai village can know by making melons, watermelons, potatoes, and radishes and selling them to Edo, and relying on the Shimogoe(Human manure as fertilizer)Ship (Kasai Ship) for fertilizer. In addition, Taro, melon, and watermelon were mentioned as products for sale, and transactions were not limited to the suburbs of Horie, Nakayama, and Onikoshi villages, but also to Asakusa and Honjo. Instead, he said he purchased manure, dried sardines, oil cake, etc., indicating the establishment of a nearby vegetable producing area. As the range of Shimogoe purchases expanded and disputes arose between farmers and traders, 1846 “The Shogunate set the price of manure with officials under the control of the account magistrate. It covers the territories of Hirayanagi, Yakota, Fuchie, Nishikasai, Higashikasai, and Gyotoku.” Kumaji Shibutani of Matsudo Shimoyakiri obtained green onion seeds from Shimazaki of Shibamata, Kanamachi Village, Minamikatsushika District and started cultivating them in 1852, on the opposite bank of Shimoyakiri across the Shiba or Edo River. The variety is "Senju welsh onion", and Kanamachi village has already been producing green onions. In addition, until the end of the Edo period, Mitsuba in Higashi Katsushika District was mostly softened in winter, and it seems that intensive vegetable cultivation was being carried out rather than extensive root mitsuba cultivation. For the production of vegetables in Higashi Katsushika, the Meiji era was an era in which the production area was greatly advanced in response to the increase in demand for vegetables in Tokyo under the capitalist economy. Not only has the variety and quantity of vegetables increased, but we have also endeavored to introduce new varieties of the same type, incorporated hotbed cultivation into the cultivation method to extend the shipping period, and introduced crop rotation to centralize production / shipment and land use. And efforts to promote rationalization were used as food. Quantitative production had already progressed in the first year of the Meiji era, but as the number of kansho, watermelon, radish, carrot, burdock, eggplant, melon, cucumber, squash, etc. gradually increased, onions, watermelons, melons, ginger, etc. Production of melons and other products increased fashionably due to an increase in supply and demand. It was Mitsuba that surged in Hongo in the first year of the Meiji era, and cultivation increased in Takagi and Kamagaya centering on the eight pillars, and it was sold to the Capital Area Tokyo market and local merchants, and its production area was permanent. From the 1887 to the 1889s, vegetable production in this area increased significantly because the population of Tokyo increased and demand increased in the wake of the Sino-Japanese War, and the opening of the Joban Line in 1896 led to Matsudo. The rapid growth of local vegetable cultivation and the opening of the Sobu Line in 1897 increased vegetable cultivation in the southern part of Higashi Katsushika. Noda City, located at the northernmost tip of Chiba Prefecture, is a major edamame producing area. It is said that edamame cultivation began in Noda City in the mid-1950s. Since edamame loses its taste quickly after being harvested, it has built its position while taking advantage of its proximity to Tokyo, which is a large consumption area. It is well known that the city is enthusiastic about the “Noda Edamame” brand. The cultivated area is as large as about 300 ha(3 km2, 3000000 m2, 30000000000 cm2, 741.3ac, 1.1583 mi2, 3588000 yd2, 32280000 ft2, 4650000000 in2, about 907500 坪, about 90750000 勺). Cultivation in the city began in the latter half of the 1945s, and at that time many farmers were growing soybeans for making their own miso. The food situation has gradually recovered, so it seems that they have switched from soybeans to edamame. In the city, we used to collect green soybeans such as “Nishiarai and Mikawashima” on behalf of a seedling supplier, so some farmers use these varieties to grow green soybeans in the Asahi area of Noda City. It was the Mefuki Shipping Association in Noda City that systematically cultivated and shipped the products in 1957, and then spread throughout the city centering on the Asahi district. At that time, most of the plants were sown directly from early April to mid-April and harvested from late July to early August. It was in 1965 that transplant cultivation was carried out using Okuhara No. 1 and early-out cultivation was attempted, and in 1968, multi-cultivation was also carried out. The city's edamame is characterized by the fact that part-time farmers are as powerful as full-time farmers. Cultivation is a relatively reasonable crop rotation system with spinach from autumn to spring and green soybeans at high temperatures in summer. In addition, since there are more than 85% of dual-purpose farmers, it is not suitable for those that require advanced technology such as fruits and vegetables. In this respect, crop rotation of green soybeans and spinach is technically and economically suitable for the city. There seems to be. The current cropping type is said to be cultivated in four cropping types: tunnel and mulch, tunnel cultivation, mulch cultivation, and open field cultivation. Below, most of them are transplanted and cultivated. In this transplanting cultivation, the previous crop has a fertile field for cultivating leaves such as spinach, which helps prevent the growth of green soybeans and overgrowth. Most of the varieties are “Okuhara Wase” and “Hakucho” released in June, and many varieties such as “Toya”, “Sappro Midori” and “Yukimusume” have been introduced recently in July. Sowing is carried out sequentially from the beginning of March, and the seedling raising period is around 20 days. The final sowing is in early June, and the quality of edamame in August deteriorates due to damage such as Asphondylia yushimai(Adults lay eggs one by one on the inner surface of young pods at night. The damaged pods and the grains inside stop growing as they are, and a part of the pods swells small and becomes galls. When the gall is cracked, a white cotton-like substance can be seen inside, which is a hypha of the fungus that develops when the hatched larva grows, and is in a symbiotic relationship with the Sayatama fly. The pupae are characterized by the fact that the damaged pupae often have pupal shells attached to them because the pupae have an escape hole made in the pod with a saw blade-shaped protrusion at the tip of the head and the half of the body leans out to escape. After the pupae have escaped, the inner surface of the pod is often discolored from grayish black to orange-brown. Late species are more susceptible to damage, as outbreaks are more frequent from mid-August to September. It tends to be distributed south of Honshu. Repeat for several generations from June to November. The peak outbreak is in mid-July in Kyushu and in September in the Kanto and Tohoku regions. Adults fly in the evening, mate and lay eggs on young pods. The larvae develop in the pods, pupate in about 3 weeks, and emerge in about 5 days. Adults look like “mosquitoes”. The larvae are yellow-red translucent maggots that pupate inside the pods, and the pupae emerge from the outside of the pods and emerge, leaving escape shells on the pods. Since it flies from the flowering period to the young pods and lays eggs, the chemicals are controlled twice aiming at the pods. Cultivation control method: For summer soybeans, selection of early-maturing seeds so that flowering ends by the end of June or early sowing (after April) will cause less damage. Sumithion is registered for the control of soybean Cecidomyiidae of various legumes. Check the registered contents carefully.), so we aim to ship it by July.

Like mature soybeans, it is rich in energy, fat and good protein. In addition, it contains vitamins A and C, which are not found in soybeans, and is rich in vitamin B1. Vitamin B1 improves the metabolism of sugar and keeps nerve function normal, so it seems to be useful for recovery from fatigue and prevention of summer heat fatigue. In addition, the substance C5H11NO2S contained in the protein, along with vitamins A, B1 and C, helps the decomposition of alcohol and reduces the burden on the liver. It makes sense to eat it as a snack for sake. Since the pods are boiled, it seems that the nutritional components do not change so much even if boiled.

In Japan, many small beans such as crane beans and mung beans have been excavated from the Jomon archaeological site, and the excavation of large beans such as soybeans has not yet been confirmed. However, in recent years, it was discovered as a plant indentation inside the earthenware excavated, and it seems that its existence in the Japanese archipelago has been confirmed from the middle to late Jomon period. It is possible that cultivated soybeans were brought from the continent before this time, or that vine beans were cultivated independently in the Japanese archipelago, but it seems that it is not known exactly.

There is a edamame motif bus called "Mame Bus" in Noda City! It boasts one of the largest shipments of green soybeans in Japan, and in 2002, it became the number one shipment in Japan. Since the taste of green soybeans deteriorates immediately after harvesting, the green soybeans produced in Noda, which are traded in the market in Tokyo on the day of harvesting, are highly evaluated and are a brand agricultural product representing Chiba prefecture. The edamame owner system allows farmers to harvest edamame cultivated by themselves. Although it is a harvesting place, it is a edamame farm in the city (the place cannot be specified). The harvest time is from early to mid-July (contact from the farm at the appropriate time for harvesting), but the standard is to harvest 13 bags of 300 grams per plot. As a guide, the target is those who can come to harvest. The price seems to be 3,000 yen per block.

In 1908, he self-published his first collection of tanka poems. At the time of the publication of "Umi no koe" (Voice of the Sea), Bokusui Wakayama (1885-1928) wrote the following poems: Immediately after graduating from Waseda University: I sing songs, but today I am chased by sorrows that I cannot understand, You may become speechless. Don't look at the sea, for it seems that you will be taken by the sea. Autumn night sake seeps through the white pearl teeth.

Information on recommended courses that incorporate the rich nature of the city center, restaurants that serve breakfast, etc. is posted to convey the charm of a refreshing morning that is a bit different from the daytime. Historic sites and nature such as Mishima Taisha Shrine and Genbei River are scattered in the city, and NPO corporations and citizen groups also regularly hold "Mishima Morning Walk" events. Izu Shonan Road Concept: According to materials from both Shizuoka and Kanagawa prefectures, the Izu Shonan Road is a 30km road that connects the eastern part of Shizuoka prefecture to the western part of Kanagawa prefecture. Proceed east from the Kannami IC (tentative name) on the Izu Jukan Expressway planned in Kannami Town, Shizuoka Prefecture, and reach Seisho Bypass and Odawara Atsugi Road in Odawara City via Atami City, Yugawara Town and Manazuru Town in Kanagawa Prefecture. It seems that a route is being envisioned. As of 2022, in order to go back and forth in this section, it seems that you will have to make a major detour to the Tomei Expressway, or take National Highway No. 1, Hakone Turnpike, Nekkan Road, National Highway No. 135, etc. “Mishima City, Shizuoka Prefecture”, Located at the base of Izu Peninsula in the south foot of Mr. Fuji and Hakone western foot.At the eastern end of the area called the Tokai region, crossing Hakone is the Kanto region. In the olden days, it prospered as a post town of Tokaido, a town in front of Mishima Taisha Shrine(Minamoto no Yoritomo prays for Genji revival; Worshipped deity-大山祇命, 積羽八重事代主神). It is also the 11th post town of The fifty-three stations of the Tokaido(Imperial fief of the Edo Shogunate; 大中島町, 小中島町, 久保町, 大中島, 小中島, 伝馬町, 金谷町, 宮倉町, 長谷町, 六反田町, 蓮行寺町, 新宿町, 木町, 茶町, 後(浦 /裏), 柴(芝)町, 唐人町, 新町三島宿 etc.). In the center of the eastern volcanic belt of the prefecture: To the north, Fuji (mt. Fuji 3,776.3 m), Ashitaka (Mt. Echizendake 1,505.5 m)-Both volcanoes.Hakone on the east side (Kamiyama 1,438.2 m, Taga (Mt. Kurotake 799.1 m, Amagi(Mt. Banzaburotake, Mt. Banjirotake)etc. Volcanoes line up north and south, and Enoura (Mt. Washizu 392 m) is on the west side, Mt. Daruma 981.9 m, Mt. Nekogoe 1,034.7 m etc. The volcano is parallel to this.Orient and Occident-The Kanogawa River (47.15 km) flows through the alluvium between the two volcanic groups. Japan National Route 136 runs along this line. The city area is about 15 to 20 meters above sea level. In the north, the Sano Area is 100 m above sea level, gently climbing the mountain skirt of Hakone / Ashitaka. To the east, the entrance to Tsukahara Shiden is 110 m, and Yamanaka Shiden is 580 m: The steep slope west of so-called Hakone. Alluvial plain of the Kanogawa River from south to west: The Mishima / Numazu plain is open. According to research, it was the fuji Volcanic belt that gave birth to hakone and Izu Peninsula. Fossa magna: Along this line, there are two major geological rifts in Japan; Southwest japan (southwest of the itoigawa-shizuoka tectonic line) and Northeast Japan (northeast of the Itoigawa-Shizuoka Tectonic Line) . In addition, it has been said to be a region where more geology can be seen than in ancient times. Near Mishima station-You can see many rocks full of holes that appear on the surface of the earth. This is called the bed-rock (Mishima lava flow) of Fuji volcano. This lava flow goes down to Mishima along the Gotemba line with a width of about 2 km. The southern end is said to reach the center of the city. Suisenen's rock is the end of the outcrop: It extends to 90m in the thick part of this lava flow. Alluvium in the south: This created the Mishima-Numazu Plain, which spread further south to become the “Tagata Plain”. The eastern highlands are covered with ejecta from Hakone volcano: Volcanic ash and pumice flow. Yugawara volcanic ejecta can also be seen around Mitsuya and Tsukahara. The western part is covered with volcanic ash and pumice to the west bank of the Kisegawa River outside the city. It is said that you can see the ejecta of Ashitaka volcano in the highlands. Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park-Born in 1936. It is divided into an area centered on Mt. Fuji and an area centered on Hakone. “Mishima” is the western entrance to the area centered around Hakone. In 1955, Izu Peninsula was added and it became a new park. “水の郷百選”, Mt. Fuji's subsoil water springs up everywhere and flows through the city. The water system is divided into three: Sakai River (Oba River), Sawaji River, Yamada River, Takekura River, Natsumegi River: All of these rivers originate at the western foot of Hakone: Irrigation water in the Sano / Kitakami / Nishikita area: It joins the Oba River and pours into the Kano River. The second water system is the spring water of Rakujuen, Komoike, and Shirataki Park. Becomes Genbei River and Sakura River and flows to the western part of Nakago: It runs through the city (City of Water). Clean groundwater called Fuji's thaw water is coming out from between the Fuji lava. Under this Fuji lava-It has abundant groundwater and is the best as drinking water and industrial water. But, the water warming pond was created in 1953 because it is too cold for irrigation water. The Kakida River in Shimizu Town is scattered in this water system. Third water system: Irrigation water in the eastern part of Nakago, Kannami Town: Kannami Town The water source is emitted from the forbidden forest (protection forest for water source) in Kuwahara: Collect the spring water from the tanna tunnel on the way to become the Raiko River. This forbidden forest is a natural forest that has long been forbidden to be logged. It has an area of 327 ha and many types of trees. In autumn, the autumn leaves shine in the setting sun and it is a beautiful sight. Route 1 (Iceland) and Japan National Route 136, which passes through the center of Izu, intersect. The transportation center of the eastern region, both in the past and in the present. Shizuoka Prefecture is located between the two major cultural areas of Kanto and Kansai: It is said to be an exchange zone between both cultures. The boundary between the Kansai valve and the Kanto valve seems to be in the western part of the prefecture. The seasoning of Kanto style such as Udon and the seasoning of Kansai style may change. The city belongs to the Kanto area. According to the Metropolitan Area Development Law, Mishima is the western end with a radius of 100 km: It is completely in the Kanto living area centered on Tokyo. However, although the living area belongs to the Kanto region, it has a geographical corridor. It has the advantage that you can choose either east or west depending on market conditions, such as shipping vegetables. Another regional feature is the cultural and economic center of North Izu.Cultural property : 国指定国宝(工芸品), 梅蒔絵手箱, 昭和27年11月22日, 大宮町, 国指定国宝 (工芸品), 薙刀, 銘備前国長船住人長光造, 昭和32年2月19日, 中田町, 国指定重文(工芸品)太刀, 銘宗忠, 明治45年2月8日, 大宮町, 国指定重文(工芸品)脇指, 銘表ニ相模国住秋義 伊豆三島大明神 裏ニ 奉拝佐藤松千代貞成, 大正9年4月15日, 大宮町, 国指定重文(工芸品)短刀, 表ニ三島大明神他人不与之 裏ニ貞治三年藤原友行ノ銘アリ, 明治44年4月17日, 大宮町, 国指定重文(工芸品)太刀, 銘長元, 昭和27年3月29日, 中田町, 国指定重文(工芸品)短刀, 銘国光, 昭和32年2月19日, 中田町, 国指定重文(工芸品)刀, 無銘正宗, 昭和36年2月17日, 中田町, 国指定重文(工芸品)刀, 朱銘義弘(名物松井郷)本阿(花押), 昭和29年3月20日, 中田町, 国指定重文(工芸品)刀, 金象嵌銘備前国兼光(名物大兼光)本阿弥(花押), 昭和34年6月27日, 中田町, 国指定重文(工芸品), 秋草文黒漆太刀 中身銘豊後国行平作, 昭和28年11月14日, 中田町, 国指定重文(美術品)太刀, 銘行秀, 昭和30年6月22日, 中田町, 国指定重文(絵画), 絹本著色日蓮上人像, 大正8年8月8日, 玉沢, 国指定重文(絵画), 絹本著色十界勧請大曼荼羅図(絵曼荼羅), 大正9年4月15日, 玉沢, 国指定重文(彫刻), 木造大日如来坐像, 明治32年8月29日, 中田町, 国指定重文(書跡)注, 法華経 (開結共) 日蓮自注, 昭和27年7月19日, 玉沢, 国指定重文(書跡)撰時抄 日蓮筆, 昭和27年7月19日, 玉沢, 国指定史跡, 山中城跡, 昭和9年1月22日, 山中新田, 国指定史跡, 伊豆国分寺塔跡, 昭和31年5月15日, 泉町, 国指定天然記念物, 三嶋大社のキンモクセイ, 昭和9年5月1日, 大宮町, 国指定天然記念物 / 名勝, 楽寿園, 昭和29年3月20日, 一番町, 国指定重文(書跡), 般若心経(源頼家筆), 平成6年6月28日, 大宮町, 国指定重文(古文書), 三嶋大社矢田部家文書, 平成6年6月28日, 大宮町, 国指定重文(建造物), 三嶋大社本殿/ 幣殿及び拝殿, 平成12年5月25日, 大宮町, 国指定史跡, 箱根旧街道, 平成16年10月18日, 箱根町, 三島市, 函南町, 県指定工芸刀, 銘荘司筑前大掾大慶藤直胤(花押)天保二年仲秋イツ(刻印), 昭和41年3月22日, 一番町, 県指定工芸刀, 銘繁慶, 昭和41年2月7日, 中田町, 県指定工芸, 三十六歌仙図刺繍額, 平成27年11月9日, 大宮町, 県指定彫刻木造阿弥陀如来立像, 平成25年11月19日, 県指定絵画紙, 本著色白隠自画像, 昭和45年6月2日, 沢地, 県指定絵画, 楽寿館 / 楽寿の間絵画, 昭和55年11月28日, 一番町, 県指定典籍, 聚分韻略, 昭和52年3月18日, 文教町, 県指定典籍, 日本書紀並びに具書, 昭和55年11月28日, 大宮町, 県指定天然記念物, 駒形諏訪神社の大カシ, 昭和46年3月19日, 山中新田, 県指定天然記念物, 御嶽神社の親子モッコク, 昭和46年3月19日, 青木, 県指定無形民俗, 三嶋大社のお田打, 昭和47年3月24日, 大宮町, 県指定無形民俗, 三島囃子, 平成3年3月19日, 川原ケ谷, 県指定史跡, 向山古墳群, 平成11年3月15日, 谷田北沢, 市指定考古資料, 市ヶ原廃寺の塔心礎, 昭和41年2月7日, 大社町, 市指定典籍, 河合家所蔵 三嶋暦及び版木並びに関係文書, 昭和41年2月7日, 大宮町, 一番町, 市指定工芸, 龍澤寺隠寮内 入江長八鏝細工, 昭和41年2月7日, 沢地, 市指定絵画, 小沼満英筆 三島宿風俗絵屏風, 昭和41年2月7日, 芝本町, 市指定建造物, 三嶋大社舞殿,神門及びそれに属する彫刻, 昭和41年2月7日, 大宮町, 市指定建造物, 玉澤妙法華寺庫裡, 昭和41年2月7日, 玉沢, 市指定工芸, 織部どうろう, 昭和41年2月7日, 南本町, 市指定天然記念物, 愛染院跡の溶岩塚, 昭和41年2月7日, 一番町, 市指定典籍, 秋山家所蔵 秋山富南古文書 原本豆州志稿他, 昭和43年10月1日, 安久, 一番町, 市指定典籍, 樋口家所蔵三島宿本陣関係史料, 昭和45年2月14日, 南本町,一番町, 市指定史跡, 千枚原遺跡, 昭和46年5月4日, 千枚原, 市指定建造物, 楽寿園内楽寿館, 昭和49年11月20日, 一番町, 指定建造物, 玉澤妙法華寺中鐘楼, 昭和54年12月1日, 玉沢, 市指定絵画, 栗原忠二画「月島の月」, 昭和55年10月8日, 一番町, 市指定彫刻金剛力士像(阿形像,吽形像), 昭和57年2月23日, 玉沢, 市指定工芸, 三四呂人形, 昭和58年10月7日, 一番町, 市指定天然記念物, 神明宮神社 社叢, 昭和60年11月11日, 御園, 市指定天然記念物, 中のカシワ, 昭和60年11月11日, 中, 市指定天然記念物, 願成寺クス, 昭和60年11月11日, 川原ケ谷, 市指定天然記念物, 耳石神社イタジイ, 昭和60年11月11日, 幸原町, 市指定彫刻, 光安寺鼻取り地蔵, 昭和62年3月19日, 日の出町, 市指定建造物, 円明寺表門(伝樋口本陣表門), 昭和63年1月21日, 芝本町, 市指定考古資料, 光安寺板碑, 平成2年3月6日, 日の出町, 市指定絵画, 梅御殿装飾絵画「杉戸絵」, 平成3年3月4日, 一番町, 市指定考古資料, 向山古墳出土遺物(鉄製品), 平成3年3月4日, 大宮町, 市指定天然記念物, 三嶋大社 社叢, 平成3年3月4日, 大宮町, 市指定考古資料, 吊手土器, 平成4年3月3日, 大宮町, 市指定天然記念物, 矢立の杉, 平成4年3月3日, 山中新田, 市指定絵画, 下田舜堂画 「朝焼けの富士」, 平成5年3月4日, 北田町, 市指定絵画下田舜堂画 「小浜池」, 平成5年3月4日, 北田町, 市指定絵画, 細井繁誠画 「月と芋畑」, 平成7年3月1日, 大宮町, 市指定絵画, 杉本英一画 「絵画教室」, 平成7年3月1日, 大宮町, 市指定歴史資料, 扁額 「三島黌」, 平成9年3月5日, 一番町, 東町, 市指定歴史資料, 「豆州伊豆佐野村」絵図, 平成12年3月1日, 佐野, 市指定典籍, 世古文書, 平成14年3月1日, 相模原市, 一番町, 市指定考古資料, 箱根田遺跡出土祭祀関係遺物, 平成15年5月8日, 中央町, 市指定歴史資料, 花島家資料, 平成15年5月8日, 一番町, 市指定建造物, 経王山 妙法華寺伽藍 (大書院 / 本堂 / 祖師堂 / 奥書院 / 中門 / 忠霊殿), 平成15年5月8日, 玉沢, 市指定絵画, 芹沢晋吾画 「農夫」, 平成19年1月10日, 大宮町, 市指定典籍, 落合家文書 「天正十八年 『豆州君澤郡中嶋郷御縄打水帳』 外地方文書」, 平成21年10月15日, 一番町, 市指定建造物, 禅叢寺鐘楼門, 平成22年3月10日, 玉川, 市指定絵画, 大沼貞夫画 「日輪ボロブドゥール幻想」, 平成22年3月10日, 大宮町, 市指定絵画, 大沼貞夫画「魔性と仏性(ボロブドゥール考)A / B」, 平成22年3月10日, 一番町, 市指定典籍, 接待茶屋関係文書, 平成23年3月9日, 一番町, 市指定歴史資料, 接待茶屋関係調度品大茶釜外3点, 平成23年3月9日, 一番町, 市指定古文書天正十八年 豊臣秀吉掟書, 平成25年3月6日, 一番町, 市指定天然記念物, 鏡池横臥溶岩樹型, 平成26年10月9日, 一番町. “Kannami Town, Tagata District”, Located at the gateway to the Izu Peninsula in the eastern part of the prefecture.

In the 30's of the Showa era, the number of green house growers increased. In 1972, it was designated as a production area for winter and spring tomatoes as a designated vegetable production area “Mishima”. Production has been strengthened, and since the 1970s, many new technologies such as hydroponic culture have been introduced. Currently from Mishima-Kannami, Produced and shipped mini tomatoes "Mishima NEW Cherry Tomatoes", high sugar content tomatoes "JA Mishima Kannan Fruit Tomatoes", round ball tomatoes "Mishima Kannan Sweet Ripe Tomatoes", etc. are produced and shipped stably. Mishima winter spring tomato harvest: From October to June, from spring to early summer, the sugar content increases as the temperature rises. It is mainly shipped to Keihin and Chukyo areas. Due to the long shipping period, we will hold several meetings within the year. Important work to reconfirm shipping standards and quality. Don't forget to measure the sugar content by comparing it with cherry tomatoes from other production areas. Work hard to be chosen by consumers: To work hard and encourage each other.

Cultivation of tomatoes in Mishima began in the latter half of the 1945s, and in the 1955s, the number of greenhouse growers increased. Since the 1980s, many new technologies such as hydroponics have been introduced. The Shizuoka Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Certification System is a system started by Shizuoka Prefecture in 2006 with the aim of ensuring the peace of mind and trust of the citizens of the prefecture for agriculture, forestry and fishery products. It is a system in which the prefecture certifies the efforts of producers of agriculture, forestry and fishery products for safety and security, and is targeted at individuals, corporations or production organizations that produce agriculture, forestry and fishery products in the prefecture. Items subject to certification are agricultural products (vegetables, rice, fruit trees, green tea, flowers), special forest products (mushrooms), livestock products (dairy cows, beef cattle, pigs, hens, broilers), marine products (eels, sardines, etc.) Inspiration). It seems that other items will be gradually expanded. A certificate will be issued to those who have passed the certification examination conducted by Shizuoka Prefecture. The certification validity period is three years, and it seems that regular audits are conducted to see if the certified system is operating properly during this period. Those who have obtained the certification are allowed to register on the dedicated website "Fuji no Kushizuoka Food Information Center" to send out information on production and safety management, and to use the certification mark. JA Mishima Kannami is a target item mini tomato with a certification date of March 18, 2021. This certification system requires that a PDCA (Plan, Do, Check, Act) management system be implemented in order to ensure and continuously execute safety management, etc., and certification holders must use manuals and records. Prepare documents etc. This makes it possible to properly explain the producer's safety management efforts to consumers and the like. It seems that the prefecture conducts an annual examination to confirm that the system for ensuring the safety of certified persons is properly operated. This enhances the reliability of the system. Disseminate information on certification and efforts for safety and security by utilizing certification marks. This seems to be able to effectively lead to the peace of mind and trust of consumers.

Since tomatoes are produced in greenhouses, it seems that the number of tomatoes planted in one house is fixed to some extent. Therefore, it seems that the decisive factor is how much the yield can be increased. Even now, MC (Integrated Environment Control: Control by linking multiple devices such as skylights, heating, and curtains. Creates a balanced environment without waste according to changes in the weather such as wind direction, wind speed, and solar radiation. Greenhouse measured with the set contents Control based on internal and external data. For example, in the afternoon of a day when solar radiation is strong and photosynthesis is active, the control temperature of the skylight and heating can be automatically corrected to promote the translocation of sugar produced by photosynthesis. It seems. It is expected that the optimum environment will be created by making an integrated judgment instead of making a judgment based on one environmental factor, and it is expected that the quality will be improved and the yield will increase. Since it automatically controls the opening and closing of skylights and curtains, heating, etc., it was said that it was opening and closing while watching the weather every day, changing the timer setting frequently, and rushing to the green house when it rained. Reduces the work load on the person. The work efficiency is improved because it is used for work such as the care of crops. Also, the input resources are used efficiently. For example, when the temperature inside the greenhouse is low and the skylight is closed. Applyes carbon dioxide gas at a high concentration to promote photosynthesis, and when the skylight starts to open due to a rise in temperature, the concentration is lowered to stop unnecessary application, and resources are used efficiently.), Fertilizer management, water management, etc. It seems that some farmers are promoting IOT with methods that do not involve human hands as much as possible.

The JA jurisdiction is blessed with a warm climate with a lot of solar radiation even in winter, with an average annual temperature of 16.2 degrees Celsius and an annual rainfall of 1826 mm. About two-thirds of the area consists of mountainous hills, which are roughly divided into hills with the foot of Mt. Hakone at the top and flat lands formed by the Kano River basin on the south side. In the plains, it is a paddy field area, and it seems that facility horticulture such as strawberries and tomatoes has been actively carried out. In the hills on the west side of the western foot of Hakone, a wide variety of vegetables such as potatoes, carrots, sweet potatoes, Chinese cabbage, and lettuce are produced. This area of surface humus andosols is blessed with fertile soil and has a history and romance that has produced very good quality agricultural products since ancient times.

Katsunuma Tunnel Wine Curve: A wine storage using the former JR Fukasawa tunnel, which was built in 1903 and remains as it is. On the other side is the Ohikage Tunnel Promenade. Although it is currently closed, it used to be possible to walk through a total length of about 1.4 km.

November is a beautiful month when grape leaves turn red in autumn. The Katsunuma New Wine Festival is held every year on November 3rd at 'Budo-no-Oka' in Katsunuma Town, Koshu City. The Katsunuma New Wine Festival celebrates the year's harvest. Wineries in Koshu City bring their freshly brewed wines to the event, allowing you to taste new wine earlier than anywhere else.

Ms. Mariko Hayashi: Grapes Get in My Eyes (KADOKAWA, 1986). The story is set in a provincial city in the early 1970s, in a preparatory school that was converted from an old middle school into a coeducational school after the war. The protagonist is a high school girl (the author's alter ego) who has a complex about her appearance, is self-conscious, and is not cool.

It seems that it was named after the nickname of "Mikhail Gorbachev", the first president of the former Soviet Union (Mouvement Réformateur; Red round).

【Main features】

On May 30, 2022, the highest temperatures in Katsunuma and Kofu in Koshu City, Yamanashi Prefecture, were the highest and second in the country, and it seems that the heat was approaching the hottest day. Katsunuma, Koshu City is No. 1 in Japan at 34.1 degrees Celsius, and Kofu is 33 degrees Celsius, share second place with Kamisatomi Town, Takasaki City, Gunma Prefecture. Katsunuma has the highest temperature of 34.1 degrees Celsius, which is the highest in Japan, and Koshu is 33 degrees Celsius, which is the second highest in Japan. Most of the causes of the recent situation and abnormal weather are meteorological disturbances such as westerly meandering and typhoons, and El Nino (the sea surface temperature from off Peru to the vicinity of the date change line continues to be higher than normal for one to one and a half years. It seems that it has been regarded as an internal change in the atmosphere such as (phenomenon) and interaction with the ocean. However, recently, it seems that the rainfall pattern has fluctuated due to the rise in the average temperature of the earth due to the increase in the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, and the frequency of abnormal weather has increased. In addition, abnormal weather is an important factor that has a great impact not only on food but also on housing. If it rains for a long time, houses near the river are more likely to be flooded under the floor or above the floor due to flooding of the river, and in the worst case, the entire house is washed away, which may lead to an emergency. When the amount of precipitation increases and the precipitation time becomes long, rainwater permeates deep into the ground, and the sediment on the surface flows out, and it is customary that a large sediment disaster such as a deep landslide that causes the entire mountain to collapse together with the rock that supports the ground is likely to occur. From 2011 to 2015, the Japan Meteorological Agency, which is an external agency of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, conducted joint research with the National Agriculture and Food Research Organization (NARO) to conduct research on risk management using weather forecast information. gone. Research has been conducted not only on the "hot days" and "typhoons and torrential rains" that have been the focus of attention, but also on "cold damage", and as a result, it seems that some methods have been created to reduce the deterioration of crop quality. According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries "2008 Global Warming Impact Survey Report" (September 2009), etc., at production sites in Japan, the impact on agricultural products that is thought to be due to global warming such as high temperature damage is nationwide. It has occurred. For example, it has been reported that ripening disorders occur in paddy rice, poor coloring / delayed coloring in apples, mandarins, grapes, etc., frequent occurrence of pests, poor growth in leaf stem vegetables, and decreased milk yield / components in dairy cows. It seems. In addition, according to the prediction of changes in the yield of paddy rice by the global climate model, it seems that the influence of climate change will increase from 2081 to 2100, and the yield will increase in northern Japan, while it will decrease in China and Kyushu. Furthermore, it is predicted that the suitable land for cultivation of crops will move due to global warming. For this reason, measures are being considered to predict global warming and to avoid the effects of climate change on agriculture as much as possible. So far, for example, adaptation measures such as changing the transplantation period to avoid high temperatures during the ripening period for paddy rice, and coloring improvement technology by cyclic peel treatment for grapes have been developed. Fruit trees) have not been washed away or released overseas, and the tragedy of the workers is miserable. At each prefecture stage, development of new varieties of paddy rice that can avoid quality deterioration due to high temperature, development and introduction of apple varieties that can be colored even at high temperature, change of cropping season by low-stage dense planting of tomato, tropical and subtropical It seems that efforts such as branding by introducing crops are being promoted. 5093 Hishiyama, Katsunuma Town, Koshu City: “Katsunuma Vineyard” is a tourist facility operated by the city, which stands on a small hill in the vineyard that spreads out at the eastern end of the Kofu Basin. In the underground wine cave, there are always 150 to 200 brands of wine that have passed the quality examination committee sponsored by the city. Also, if you buy a special container (Tart Van), you can sample each brand. At the hot spring facility “Tenku no Hot Water”, you can enjoy high-quality hot springs while watching the scenery of the Kofu basin below. It is said that the wine restaurant prepares dishes that match the wine produced in Koshu City. In addition, there are barbecue facilities, a light meal lounge in the sky, and an adjacent museum. The accommodation facility is said to have hot springs in all rooms. It was decided on July 19, 2019 that six buildings that tell the history of winemaking will be added to the national registered tangible cultural properties. The National Council for Cultural Affairs reported to the Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology at the main building and storage of the winery built from the Meiji era to the postwar period. For details, there are 6 cases: Marufuji Winery's old brewery and bottle storage, Katsunuma brewing's main house and office and barrel storage, Kuramubon wine's old main house and wine cellar. According to the City Board of Education, there are four Japanese-style wineries with main houses and stores in Katsunuma Town, where winemaking began in the Meiji era. Together with Haramo Wine, which was registered last year, the buildings of all four companies have become registered tangible cultural properties. It is customary for Yamanashi grapes and wine to originate from the Koshu variety. Before the Edo period, it seems that only this Koshu species was cultivated in Japan. In particular, the climate of Yamanashi Prefecture, which is rich in seasonal changes, is a soil and meteorological environment suitable for viticulture. Among them, as the optimum cultivation area for the Koshu species, which is the only native species in Japan, mainly in the Katsunuma area, it has extremely natural conditions, and it produces finer, more mellow and beautiful fruits. Wine is a combination of climate and people's hearts. The Koshu species belongs to the oriental group (Proles orientalis) of European descent (Vitis vinifera), but its origin is Gyoki (a monk of the Hosso sect of the Nara period. Born in Otori District (currently Osaka Prefecture). Learned from Michiaki, a high priest of the Hosso sect, and worked on private missions especially for farmers. There are many temples such as Daizenji Temple, Unpouji Temple, and Hojoji Temple that are said to have opened Gyoki.) Introduction theory and the resident of Mr. Kageyu Amemiya Residents of the village (currently Katsunuma Town). In 1186, on the way back from the “Shironohira” festival, he discovered a wild vine and moved it to his own field to cultivate it. This is said to be the origin. Koshu grapes were presented to Kageyu on the way back to Zenkoji Temple.) There is a legend, and it is alive as a story unique to Katsunuma, but in any case, it has a long history of 1280 to 810 years based on both theories (Recently, as a result of DNA analysis, the Koshu variety is a European variety. It has been suggested that there is no contradiction in the theory that it inherited the genetic traits of the above and passed from Europe to China and Japan via the Silk Road). It can be inferred that the creativity of the shelves and the spread of their technology were epoch-making in the history of cultivation of Koshu species. In Japan, where the trees are vigorous and it rains a lot, it seems that the stock tailoring and hedge tailoring were not good. Taking advantage of this characteristic, Tokuhon Nagata, a Chinese medicine doctor (a doctor from the Muromachi period to the Edo period. He was also called “Tokuhon of Kai” because he lived in Kai Province for a long time. He first served Nobutora Takeda as a doctor, and later Shinano. After the destruction of the Mr. Takeda family, he returned to Kai. During the Genna period, he devised a method for shelving grapes in Kamiiwasaki Village (currently Katsunuma Town) and contributed to the development of grape cultivation. , It is said that Hidetada Tokugawa's illness was cured. However, there are many unclear points about the end of the Warring States period and the beginning of the Edo period.) Is said to have devised a method of making a shelf with bamboo and taught it to the villagers of Katsunuma. Viticulture on bamboo shelves continued until the early Meiji era, and in 1879, Sakuzaemon Amemiya of Kamiiwasaki came up with the idea of replacing bamboo with a thin iron bar. Furthermore, in 1908, Katsunuma Postmaster Kangoro Wakao built an iron wire shelf with the hint of the telegraph line arrangement, and established the foundation of the iron wire shelf that can withstand the heavy pressure by stretching the current branch line and branch line. On July 1, 1889, due to the enforcement of the town and village system, Katsunuma Village since the early modern period formed an independent municipality. On March 2, 1896, Katsunuma Village enforced the town system and became Katsunuma Town. On May 10, 1942, Katsunuma Town was established again by merging with Todoroki Village. On April 5, 1954, Katsunuma Town was established again by merging with Hishiyama Village, Shinonome Village, and Iwai Village, Higashiyatsushiro County. On November 1, 2005, Koshu City was established by merging with Enzan City and Yamato Village, and Katsunuma Town was abolished on the same day. “Koshu City, Yamanashi Prefecture”,(Concerning municipalities which changed characters for names and adopted old provincial names virtually, there are Mutsu City, Iwaki City, Sanuki City, Oushu City, and Koshu City.)になる.

A bright, beautiful red, large grain of sweet grapes with excellent meat quality and rich sweetness. Thorough production control is required, and the weather and climate have a great influence on growth, and every day is a serious match with nature. I need to thank you again today. Seedless grapes can be seedless by treatment with a plant hormone called gibberellin. It is a very time-consuming cultivation because each bunch of grapes is manually treated with gibberellin. Normally, pollen is attached to the stigma of the pistil and pollinated to produce seeds in the ovary, and the ovary swells and becomes fruit. However, grapes can be cultivated by immersing the bunches in “gibberellin” without pollination. As a result, the composition is such that seedless grapes can be produced because they are not pollinated. It is greatly involved in promoting cell elongation in the direction of the growth axis, promoting seed germination, promoting dormancy breakthrough, and suppressing aging. It is also well known to enhance the action of auxin. It is the first plant hormone discovered by Japanese engineer Mr. Eiichi Kurosawa in the world. It is a well-known fact that Mr. Teijiro Yabuta made crystallization and structure determination. Gibberellin treatment in grapes not only denuclearizes and enlarges the grapes, but also changes the meat quality. Changes in the flesh due to gibberellin treatment differ depending on the variety and line, but I hear that there are many varieties and lines with high flesh hardness.

Gokyogoku grape (formerly Golby grape) was copulated at the Uehara Grape Research Institute in Zenkoji, Kofu City, Yamanashi Prefecture in 1983, and first bred in 1988. It is characterized by its large, bright crimson color, firm flesh and vivid sweetness. The skin of wine red is beautiful, and it seems that the average sugar content is about 18 degrees and the average temperature is about 20 degrees. Although it looks similar to Aki Queen grapes, it has a firmer flesh than Aki Queen, and has become popular and popular in recent years as a large-grain grape with no seeds and a high sugar content. It seems that the name of Gorby grapes was derived from the nickname of Mr. Gorbachev of the former Soviet Union.

Katsunuma is the birthplace of Koshu grape cultivation. It is said that 1300 years ago, when it originated in Europe, it landed in Japan (Koshu City, Yamanashi Prefecture) via the Silk Road along with the East-West trade. It seems that there are various theories about the origin of Koshu grapes in Japan from ancient times. Koshu grapes, which are purple-red, rich in fruit powder, and have a unique color, are one of the representative varieties of Yamanashi prefecture, where you can enjoy moderate acidity and slight astringency. You can still enjoy the taste of 1300 years ago because of the warm and warm climate peculiar to the Kofu Basin surrounded by rich mountains.
