The amendment to the Law Concerning Agricultural Committees (Law No. 88 of 1951) came into effect on April 1, 2016, and the most important task for agricultural committees is to promote the optimization of agricultural land use. It is clearly positioned as an essential task. In Sakaide City, flat land and hilly and mountainous land are mixed, and it seems that the use of farmland and the type of farming are different depending on the region. In hilly and mountainous areas, there is concern about the expansion of idle farmland due to the aging of cultivators and damage from birds and animals. While efforts are being made to prevent and eliminate such problems, since land-based agriculture centered on rice and vegetables is popular on flatlands, regional planning (Bill for Partial Revision of the Agricultural Management Base Strengthening Promotion Act (No. 56 of 2022), based on the provisions of Article 19, Paragraph 1 of the Agricultural Management Base Strengthening Promotion Law (No. 65 of 1980) after the revision, municipalities, based on the results of discussions with farmers, etc. For each person in charge of agriculture as a goal for efficient and comprehensive use of agricultural land. This refers to clarified and published maps, etc. that indicate the agricultural land to be used.)in the farmland based on It seems that it is necessary to work on usage adjustment utilizing the space management business. Sakaide is an area that has been associated with salt since ancient times, as evidenced by the excavation of salt pottery from the Yayoi and Kofun periods. Then, in the Edo period, Eizaemon Kume (1780-1841), who established the city as a town of salt, appeared. He was born in Kagawa as the son of a boat rudder craftsman. Calling himself "Michikata", he made a name for himself as a master of artillery and artillery. In 1824, when the finances of the Takamatsu clan were declining and the people were suffering from poverty, he decided to restore the finances of the clan and cultivate salt fields off the shallow coast of Sakaide in order to save the people. Yorihiro Matsudaira(1798-1842, Father: Harunori Tokugawa, 7th lord of Hitachi Mito Domain Father-in-law: Yorinori Matsudaira, 8th lord of Sanuki Takamatsu Domain. 9th lord of Sanuki Takamatsu Domain). In 1826, he became Fushin-bugyo (shogunate official responsible for public works) at Sakaide new rice field. In addition, the approximately 20,000 ryo from the clan was not enough, and a total of approximately 1,940,000 people were mobilized with their own funds. Three years later, in 1829, approximately 132 ha of salt fields, including Higashi-Ohama and Nishi-Ohama, were cultivated. successful. He is famous as the person who created Japan's first survey map before Tadataka Ino (1745-1818), a great man from Kujukuri Town, Sanmu County, Chiba Prefecture.

On December 13, 2022, 14 third graders from Kuwayama Elementary School (Okamoto) are experiencing broccoli harvesting. With the cooperation of local producers, each elementary school in Toyonaka Town, Mitoyo seems to do this every year. Before the harvesting experience, a staff member of the Kagawa Prefecture Seisan Agricultural Improvement and Extension Center explained about the history and characteristics of broccoli. Listening to the story, the children learn that local broccoli production is thriving. I am deeply impressed by the magnificence of the teaching staff, who consider the field of food education, which is greatly influenced by the growth process, to be a valuable experience, and impose hands-on experience. In addition, the main production areas of broccoli in the Kagawa irrigation district are Takamatsu City, Sakaide City, Mitoyo City, and Kanonji City. Among the 863 million tons of annual water volume newly developed for the Sameura Dam by the "Yoshino River Comprehensive Development Plan" centered on the construction of the Sameura Dam (Kochi Prefecture) located upstream of the Yoshino River, the tunnel runs from the Ikeda point in Tokushima Prefecture in the middle of the Yoshino River. 247 million cubic meters of water per year that is distributed to Kagawa Prefecture. An 8-kilometer water tunnel runs through the Asan Mountains, leading to the former Zaita Town, Mitoyo County, and from there, a main waterway extending from east to west is planned to carry water into the prefecture. It is a lifeline that solves the water shortage that has been plagued since ancient times and plays an important role in people's lives and industrial activities. Broccoli is a representative vegetable of Kagawa Prefecture, and the shipment volume was the third largest in Japan in 2018. The production area extends throughout the prefecture, and in areas other than the islands, it seems that cultivation using water from Kagawa is being carried out. After being picked in the morning, they are immediately packed in ice and shipped, so they are characterized by their deep green color and excellent freshness. In addition, it boasts a soft texture and sweetness, and its high quality has earned it high praise from market participants both inside and outside the prefecture.

The JA Bank food and agriculture education support project that JA Bank Kagawa has continued since 2008. In this project, in order to promote the understanding of agriculture among elementary school students, the supplementary teaching materials "Agriculture and Our Life" will be presented to children on March 13, 2023. JA Bank prepares it every year with basic themes such as food, agriculture and environmental education for upper grades, mainly 5th graders. It is mainly used in social studies classes and comprehensive learning. After the presentation ceremony, we donated 9,430 books to 153 elementary schools in the prefecture and 77 books to special needs schools and classes through the JA Kagawa branch. A4 size, full color 28 pages, introducing rice, vegetables, fruit production, changes in agricultural technology, distribution, issues in Japanese agriculture, new initiatives, etc. with photos, illustrations, and graphs in an easy-to-understand manner. Issued by the JA Bank Agri Eco Support Fund, which is sent to elementary schools nationwide. The Kagawa Prefectural Agricultural Cooperative has decided to appoint actress Ai Iinuma from Kagawa Prefecture for the JA Bank promotion from April 2023. She is planning to develop promotions such as TV commercials, YouTube advertisements, shopping street banners, and over-the-counter promotional materials. Ai Iinuma was selected as the grand prix out of about 9,000 people in Yasushi Akimoto × TBS TV's actress discovery and training audition "TBS Star Development Project The Day I Became an Actress_". One of the actresses who has been attracting attention in the future after seizing the lead role in "This First Love is Fiction" and entering the entertainment world. She is from Kagawa Prefecture, her birth date is August 5, 2003. She then won first place in a three-month acting battle. She starred in the drama stream "Papa to Musume no 7 daily interest rate", and she has also decided to appear in the Sunday theater "Atom no Ko" from October. In the middle of March 2022, I learned from the media that Kagawa Prefecture in the Shikoku region is planning a project to export rice produced in the prefecture as “Pre-packaged rice” overseas in collaboration with a major company. As the domestic market is expected to shrink, it seems that it is attracting attention as a new initiative aimed at expanding consumption of rice produced in the prefecture by looking overseas. According to the people concerned, Kagawa Prefecture and others have agreed to supply rice produced in the prefecture to the “Pre-packaged rice” factory that a major company is planning to build in Saga Prefecture. Pre-packaged rice is also being exported by the national government because it does not require phytosanitary inspection when it is exported and even foreigners who do not know how to cook rice can easily cook it in the microwave. According to the plan, rice produced in the prefecture will be supplied through JA Kagawa prefecture from next year when the factory in Saga prefecture starts operation, and it will be made into pre-packaged rice and exported overseas. In 2025, when the Saga factory will start full-scale operation, it is said that about 1500 tons of rice will be processed into packed rice annually together with rice produced in other prefectures. JA Kagawa Prefecture is recruiting producers to participate in this project soon. In addition to providing guidance on low-cost rice production suitable for export, it seems that it will conduct market research overseas. There has been almost no export record of rice produced in Kagawa prefecture, and it is attracting attention as a new initiative aimed at expanding consumption by looking overseas. To give an example, it was decided that the Pre-packaged rice manufactured at “Japan Pack Rice Akita” in Ogata Village, Akita Prefecture, which started full-scale operation in July 2021, will be exported overseas for the first time, and in 2022 as the first step. On January 27, it seems that loading into a container for Taiwan was carried out at the factory. As domestic demand for rice for main food is declining year by year, we have found a way out in overseas sales channels. About 12,000 meals were exported. After customs clearance, he left Akita Port on January 8, 2021 and arrived at Keelung Port in Taiwan on the 16th. It is sold at a department store in Taiwan on the Internet, and it seems that the selling price was expected to be about twice that of Japan (120 yen per meal). According to the Ogata Village Akita Komachi Producers Association, which is responsible for exports, the company wants to export to Taiwan once every three months, aiming for about 100,000 meals a year. Exports to Shanghai, China were completed in February. It seems that it is also considering exporting to Singapore, Hong Kong and the United States. The aim is to increase consumption of rice, which is the staple food of the Japanese. It seems that he settled in Ogata village half a century ago and wanted to grow rice and increase consumption. Consumption is declining, while nuclear families are becoming more common and people's lifestyles are changing. The chances of cooking rice at home are decreasing, and more people are eating convenient pre-packaged rice. I have considered building a factory twice so far, but it seems that the investment amount has been greatly abandoned. This time, subsidies from the national and prefectural governments and loans from Akita Bank have been completed. At last, the prospect of construction was reached, and gluten-free foods and foods for food allergies were developed, but it seems to be a product that fills the gap. Consumption is increasing year by year, and the market is expected to grow even more in the future. About four years ago, in February 2018, TableMark Co., Ltd. (Head office: Tsukiji, Chuo Ward, Tokyo), the largest manufacturer and seller of PACKED ASEPTIC COOKED RICE in Japan. It seems that the annual production will be 250 million meals and 50,000 tons. The company aims to complete the Mizu no Sato factory (Toka Town) in Uonuma, Niigata prefecture in August 2018, and invests 2.1 billion yen to produce 7,500 meals per hour. Was added. Six lines are already in operation at this factory, and when the additional line is completed, the production capacity will reach 46,500 meals per hour. At the Spring / Summer New Product Press Conference held on January 25, Tablemark Co., Ltd. offered 3 extra-sized servings of 300g per meal and pre-packaged rice using milky queen rice from Ishikawa prefecture as new products for packed rice. It is on sale from the 1st of the month. We are also introducing Pre-packaged rice using Koshihikari in the commercial field. It seems that the commercial-use rice is not made exclusively for it, but is the same as the commercially available Koshihikari rice-packed rice, and the packaging design is only one color. According to the company, there have been inquiries about pre-packaged rice in order to save the trouble of re-cooking rice at restaurants and hotels, and it is focusing on management by making a full-scale sales offensive in this field. Kagawa Prefectural Agricultural Cooperative was established in April 2000 by the merger of 43JA in Kagawa Prefecture. After that, it merged with 2JA and contributed to Japanese agriculture again as a prefectural single agricultural cooperative in April 2013. The average cultivated area per farmhouse in the prefecture is 0.9 hectares, which is less than half of the national average (2.1 hectares). Under favorable climatic conditions, lettuce and Japanese red Kintoki carrot (the bright red color is dazzling, the production volume is the highest in Japan. It is said that the oriental species was introduced from China from 1603 to 1867. The red color is japanese traditional. It is prized for New Year's dish and Kyo-ryori (local climate of Kyoto), and is also characterized by being sweeter and softer than the orange-colored western carrots that are widely distributed. The main production areas are the sandy areas of Sakaide City and Kannonji City. At the end of the year when demand is high, farmers will be forced to ship), and they produce nationwide agricultural products such as lettuce. Kanonji City, which is a celery producing area in Kagawa Prefecture, is located in the western part of the prefecture, bordering the Seto Inland Sea in the north and the Sanuki Mountains in the south. While making high use of the blessed natural conditions of the Setouchi-style climate of warm and light rain, the micro-scale of management is complemented by advanced use of land and capital-intensive management such as facility horticulture, and vegetables, fruit trees, and livestock are produced based on rice and wheat. It seems that they are developing highly productive agriculture centered on complex management such as. In the Ariake area, where celery is particularly popular in the city, tomatoes and cucumbers are cultivated mainly in celery and are popular with consumers, using well-drained sandy areas along the coast. Celery production seems to have started in 1970 in the Ariake district of Kanonji city. At that time, the cultivation was institutionalized, and we were considering the items to be introduced, but there was a request from the Kanto market for celery production, and we started cultivation with 5 houses producers. In 2017, the JA Kagawa Prefecture Kanonji District Celery Subcommittee produced 22 houses, with a cultivated area of 830 ares (including 590 ares of celery and 240 ares of mini celery), and a cultivated area of 37.7 ares per house. Production was strong at 640 tons (480 tons of celery, 160 tons of mini celery). It seems that the aging of farmers is progressing in the prefecture, but the average age of producers is as young as 40s, and many bearers are growing, making it a vigorous production area in the prefecture. Kanonji celery seems to be cultivated mainly in combination with tomatoes. Cellular is planted from mid-September to the end of November, and the harvest seems to be from early January to early May. The peak harvest season is March. I heard that cultivation is generally done in an unheated greenhouse. Minicellly is planted from early September to the end of November, and harvested from mid-November to early June. It is generally cultivated in the open field or in an unheated greenhouse. The main varieties are celery 619 and mini celery top-selling (vigorous and disease-resistant. The plant is slightly upright, the first node is long, the core leaves grow well, and large plants can yield high yields. The petioles are wide, thick, and have few streaks. The color is light green with good freshness. It seems that the celery is about half a month later than “Cornel 619”. It seems that small stocks of about 1 kg are also possible). Raising seedlings was carried out collectively at the Kagawa Prefectural Agricultural Support Center, a subsidiary of JA Kagawa Prefecture, in an effort to reduce the work of producers. However, from around 2006, in Cornell varieties, seeding due to the effects of warming caused poor germination of seeds due to high temperatures during the seeding period, and the occurrence of twisting symptoms similar to viral diseases in planted seedlings (Colletotrichum simmondsii RG). Shivas & YP Tan? Fine, necrotic spots are formed on the core leaves of new leaves, and in the case of severe damage, spindle-shaped brown spots appear on the outer leaves and stalks. Also, curls of leaves and twisting of stalks. It seems that it may be accompanied by malformations such as. Diagnosis is made by confirming the characteristic necrotic spot spot symptoms that occur in the core lobe. Furthermore, when the symptom site of the core lobe is observed with a microscope, it is colorless single vesicle, spindle-shaped to oval. It seems that it is possible to confirm the saplings). Therefore, in cooperation with related organizations such as the extension center of the prefecture, it seems that they started self-seeding by jurisdiction seeding farmers for line selection in 2010, and started cultivating selected seeds in 2011 the following year. It seems that the selected seeds are fixed seeds in the area and are raised at the Kagawa Prefectural Agricultural Support Center. Since the selected seeds germinate well and the occurrence of twisting symptoms is small, it seems that it was possible to plant with good quality seedlings, which led to the improvement of quality. Currently, selected seeds and commercially available seeds are used in combination, but the weight of selected seeds is increasing, and further quality improvement is being seriously addressed. In addition, the JA seems to be promoting the introduction of a hydroponic soil cultivation system for each producer in order to save labor. The hydroponic soil cultivation system does not require special soil or facilities, and it seems that it can automatically perform watering and fertilizer application work and reduce the amount of fertilizer used compared to the conventional soil cultivation method. In addition, there is no need to add fertilizer or soil conditioner at the time of planting, which seems to save labor. Furthermore, since crops absorb water and fertilizer efficiently, they are less likely to be stressed, and are expected to increase yield and sugar content. About half of the producers have introduced it since that time, and it seems that not only labor saving but also quality improvement has been realized. Cellular is soft rot, spot plant disease, wilt disease for diseases, armyworm, aphid, Penthaleus erythrocephalus Koch for pests. Is reddish brown). Therefore, it seems that they are aiming to supply safe, high-quality and excellent agricultural products by disinfecting the soil before planting and controlling it in a timely and appropriate manner. Harvesting is done in the morning so that it reaches consumers in a fresher state, and after sorting and boxing by each producer, it is brought to the collection point and shipped to the market on the same day. At the collection point, quality inspections are conducted by inspectors. It seems that once a week, a shipping awareness meeting is held for shippers to unify the awareness of producers and maintain and improve quality. In addition, the name and number of the producer are written on the shipping cardboard, and it seems that a system is in place to respond promptly when there is a problem. The main shipping destinations are the Keihin and Sendai markets. Every February, the officers of the subcommittee visit each market to hold sales review meetings and sales promotion activities to expand contract transactions with an awareness of reproduction prices. In addition to continuous and stable shipments, the subcommittee has unified its intention to set March as the peak shipment period, and seems to be striving for advantageous sales aiming at the off-season of other production areas. In addition, it seems that consumers are always on the side of consumers by strictly adhering to safe use standards for pesticides, recording, checking and storing, and thoroughly raising awareness of food hygiene to prevent contamination by foreign substances. The area of cultivated land by field in 2018 was 29,900 hectares (40th in Japan), and the area of cultivated land per house was 78 ares, which is less than half of the national average. Despite these conditions, autumn-winter crop cultivation has prospered for half a century as a back crop of paddy fields, and typical autumn-winter items are lettuce, current price increases, great crops, and wheat, which is active as a staple food. Broccoli seems to have been introduced in the prefecture for the first time due to the demand for diversified vegetable items in the latter half of the 1965s, which is the latter half of the high growth period. Cultivation began in Tadotsu Town, Nakatado District, and after that, it was cultivated throughout the prefecture, but it seems that the production volume declined temporarily due to the increase in cheap imported broccoli from China and the United States. On the other hand, in the Mitoyo area, it seems that the product value was increased by innovating production technology and devising shipping forms such as ice-packed shipping. I heard that this initiative spread throughout the prefecture and became a representative of autumn / winter items. With the support of mechanization, JA, and the cooperation of the production subcommittee, the current planted area is one of the five largest production areas in Japan. Comparing the broccoli cultivation area in the prefecture in the last 10 years, the production in 2008 was 565 hectares, while the production in 2018 was 1170 hectares, more than doubled. It seems that the background was the fall in rice prices, the abolition of rice and wheat subsidies for management income stabilization measures (former farmer household income compensation system), and the entry of baby boomers into agriculture. In addition, it seems that the acreage has expanded due to the improvement of the support system by JA, the rise in transaction prices due to the high leveling of quality, and the expansion of end consumption. In any case, Kagawa has a small cultivated area and cannot be mass-produced, so it seems that it is trying to differentiate itself from domestic and overseas competing production areas by producing high-value-added crops such as high quality and individualization. The mild climate of Setouchi, also known as the Mediterranean Sea of Japan, seems to be the best environment for growing fruits and vegetables. And it seems that the secret to producing beautiful products is the careful manufacturing of each producer. The tomatoes of the skilled producers introduced this time belong to the Solanaceae family and are perennials in the tropics, but they are annual plants in the temperate zone. The place of origin seems to be said to be the western plateau of South America. It was introduced in Japan in the early 18th century, but it seems that it was treated for appreciation at that time. Until the early Showa period, production was insignificant because it did not suit general tastes, but I heard that the cultivated area increased from around 1935. It was prototyped in a glass greenhouse in Kusugami Town, Takamatsu City around the end of the Taisho era, and it seems that the cultivation area increased with the spread of vinyl greenhouses in the early 1955s. In particular, the spread of ripe round ball varieties “Momotaro Tomato” has led to increased consumption and an increase in cultivated area. In addition, it seems that the variety of tomato cultivation has expanded and the consumption has increased significantly due to the spread of quality-enhancing ingredients such as high sugar content tomatoes, medium-sized tomatoes “midi tomatoes”, and mini tomatoes. It is widely known, and it is said that Tang dynasty and “TOMATO” are used in Japan after the Meiji Era. “Momotaro tomato”, Treetop A large pink ball that does not hurt even when shipped after it is fully ripe. A long-established store from the Edo period --Developed by foundation takii & co., Ltd in 1835. However, new producers are cherry tomatoes (cultivation started around 1985, and it seems that it spread rapidly throughout the prefecture with the advent of minicarols. It reached 43ha in 1990, and it seems that it is gradually decreasing since then. Cultivation is soil cultivation. It has shifted to hydroponic cultivation from, and now 60% seems to be hydroponic cultivation. The main production areas are Tadotsu Town, Sanuki City, Zentsuji City, Takamatsu City, Higashi Kagawa City, etc. The variety is CF Chika (dark red and glossy). A certain fruit color, stable from low to high sugar content, excellent taste. Fruit color is deep red and glossy. Fruit weight is 15 to 20 g. Fruit shape is beautiful spherical and good to match. Goku Wase species Excellent yield in the low temperature period), TY Chika (excellent in taste, glossy fruit color) Stable from low to high sugar content. The fruit color is deep red and glossy. Fruit weight is 15 to 20g. It seems that the fruit shape is a beautiful sphere and the fruit is well-matched. The shape of the calyx is also beautiful, and it looks good when packed. It also seems to be rich in lycopene, a functional ingredient. It seems that the Wase species, which has a stable yield and an early ripening period, has few fluctuations in yield throughout the cultivation period, and stable shipment can be expected). It seems that the production area of large tomatoes is sluggish due to the high selection rate. That is why it is valuable. The main production areas are Sanuki City, Takamatsu City, Kanonji City, etc. Nakayama Sunflower Complex: The blue sky, the mountains of Asan, and over 310,000 pretty and elegant sunflowers. The spacious and spectacular view from the top of the hill is just like summer. Not only for sightseeing, but also as a shooting spot, many people visit from inside and outside the prefecture and from abroad. Also, it seems that 200 yen will be paid as a beautification cooperation fee at the entrance. National high school as a whole to be held in Manno Town, Nakatadori County, Kagawa Prefecture in August 2022 (Venue: Manno Town, Kagawa Prefecture / Sports Center Manno, Manno Town Manno Junior High School, Mt. Kasagata, Mt. Ryuo, Mt. Okawa, Encampment: Manno Town / Kotonami Miraikan, Opening Ceremony on August 5th (Friday) and Closing Ceremony on August 9th (Tuesday) I signed an agreement. At the signing ceremony on April 25, the 15th Infantry Regiment Commander of the Ground Self-Defense Force Zentsuji Camp, the Kagawa Prefectural Board of Education, and the representative of Manno Town signed the agreement. Every year, it seems that the local government that holds the national high school championships has an agreement with the Self-Defense Forces for the safety of the students. It seems that the Self-Defense Forces will provide preliminary inspections of the course, wireless communication, and rescue support in the event of an accident during the competition. In the middle of March 2022, I learned from the media that Kagawa Prefecture in the Shikoku region is planning a project to export rice produced in the prefecture as “Pre-packaged rice” overseas in collaboration with a major company.

On January 27, it seems that loading into a container for Taiwan was carried out at the factory. As domestic demand for rice for main food is declining year by year, we have found a way out in overseas sales channels. About 12,000 meals were exported. After customs clearance, he left Akita Port on January 8, 2021 and arrived at Keelung Port in Taiwan on the 16th. It is sold at a department store in Taiwan on the Internet, and it seems that the selling price was expected to be about twice that of Japan (120 yen per meal). According to the Ogata Village Akita Komachi Producers Association, which is responsible for exports, the company wants to export to Taiwan once every three months, aiming for about 100,000 meals a year. Exports to Shanghai, China were completed in February. It seems that it is also considering exporting to Singapore, Hong Kong and the United States. The aim is to increase consumption of rice, which is the staple food of the Japanese. It seems that he settled in Ogata village half a century ago and wanted to grow rice and increase consumption.

Consumption is increasing year by year, and the market is expected to grow even more in the future. About four years ago, in February 2018, TableMark Co., Ltd. (Head office: Tsukiji, Chuo Ward, Tokyo), the largest manufacturer and seller of PACKED ASEPTIC COOKED RICE in Japan. It seems that the annual production will be 250 million meals and 50,000 tons. The company aims to complete the Mizu no Sato factory (Toka Town) in Uonuma, Niigata prefecture in August 2018, and invests 2.1 billion yen to produce 7,500 meals per hour. Was added. Six lines are already in operation at this factory, and when the additional line is completed, the production capacity will reach 46,500 meals per hour. At the Spring / Summer New Product Press Conference held on January 25, Tablemark Co., Ltd. offered 3 extra-sized servings of 300g per meal and pre-packaged rice using milky queen rice from Ishikawa prefecture as new products for packed rice.

The main production areas are the sandy areas of Sakaide City and Kannonji City. At the end of the year when demand is high, farmers will be forced to ship), and they produce nationwide agricultural products such as lettuce. Kanonji City, which is a celery producing area in Kagawa Prefecture, is located in the western part of the prefecture, bordering the Seto Inland Sea in the north and the Sanuki Mountains in the south.

Production was strong at 640 tons (480 tons of celery, 160 tons of mini celery). It seems that the aging of farmers is progressing in the prefecture, but the average age of producers is as young as 40s, and many bearers are growing, making it a vigorous production area in the prefecture. Kanonji celery seems to be cultivated mainly in combination with tomatoes. Cellular is planted from mid-September to the end of November, and the harvest seems to be from early January to early May. The peak harvest season is March. I heard that cultivation is generally done in an unheated greenhouse. Minicellly is planted from early September to the end of November, and harvested from mid-November to early June. It is generally cultivated in the open field or in an unheated greenhouse. The main varieties are celery 619 and mini celery top-selling (vigorous and disease-resistant. The plant is slightly upright, the first node is long, the core leaves grow well, and large plants can yield high yields. The petioles are wide, thick, and have few streaks. The color is light green with good freshness. It seems that the celery is about half a month later than “Cornel 619”. It seems that small stocks of about 1 kg are also possible). Raising seedlings was carried out collectively at the Kagawa Prefectural Agricultural Support Center, a subsidiary of JA Kagawa Prefecture, in an effort to reduce the work of producers. However, from around 2006, in Cornell varieties, seeding due to the effects of warming caused poor germination of seeds due to high temperatures during the seeding period, and the occurrence of twisting symptoms similar to viral diseases in planted seedlings (Colletotrichum simmondsii RG). Shivas & YP Tan? Fine, necrotic spots are formed on the core leaves of new leaves, and in the case of severe damage, spindle-shaped brown spots appear on the outer leaves and stalks. Also, curls of leaves and twisting of stalks. It seems that it may be accompanied by malformations such as. Diagnosis is made by confirming the characteristic necrotic spot spot symptoms that occur in the core lobe. Furthermore, when the symptom site of the core lobe is observed with a microscope, it is colorless single vesicle, spindle-shaped to oval. It seems that it is possible to confirm the saplings). Therefore, in cooperation with related organizations such as the extension center of the prefecture, it seems that they started self-seeding by jurisdiction seeding farmers for line selection in 2010, and started cultivating selected seeds in 2011 the following year. It seems that the selected seeds are fixed seeds in the area and are raised at the Kagawa Prefectural Agricultural Support Center. Since the selected seeds germinate well and the occurrence of twisting symptoms is small, it seems that it was possible to plant with good quality seedlings, which led to the improvement of quality. Currently, selected seeds and commercially available seeds are used in combination, but the weight of selected seeds is increasing, and further quality improvement is being seriously addressed. In addition, the JA seems to be promoting the introduction of a hydroponic soil cultivation system for each producer in order to save labor. The hydroponic soil cultivation system does not require special soil or facilities, and it seems that it can automatically perform watering and fertilizer application work and reduce the amount of fertilizer used compared to the conventional soil cultivation method. In addition, there is no need to add fertilizer or soil conditioner at the time of planting, which seems to save labor. Furthermore, since crops absorb water and fertilizer efficiently, they are less likely to be stressed, and are expected to increase yield and sugar content. About half of the producers have introduced it since that time, and it seems that not only labor saving but also quality improvement has been realized. Cellular is soft rot, spot plant disease, wilt disease for diseases, armyworm, aphid, Penthaleus erythrocephalus Koch for pests. Is reddish brown). Therefore, it seems that they are aiming to supply safe, high-quality and excellent agricultural products by disinfecting the soil before planting and controlling it in a timely and appropriate manner. Harvesting is done in the morning so that it reaches consumers in a fresher state, and after sorting and boxing by each producer, it is brought to the collection point and shipped to the market on the same day. At the collection point, quality inspections are conducted by inspectors. It seems that once a week, a shipping awareness meeting is held for shippers to unify the awareness of producers and maintain and improve quality. In addition, the name and number of the producer are written on the shipping cardboard, and it seems that a system is in place to respond promptly when there is a problem. The main shipping destinations are the Keihin and Sendai markets. Every February, the officers of the subcommittee visit each market to hold sales review meetings and sales promotion activities to expand contract transactions with an awareness of reproduction prices. In addition to continuous and stable shipments, the subcommittee has unified its intention to set March as the peak shipment period, and seems to be striving for advantageous sales aiming at the off-season of other production areas. In addition, it seems that consumers are always on the side of consumers by strictly adhering to safe use standards for pesticides, recording, checking and storing, and thoroughly raising awareness of food hygiene to prevent contamination by foreign substances. The area of cultivated land by field in 2018 was 29,900 hectares (40th in Japan), and the area of cultivated land per house was 78 ares, which is less than half of the national average. Despite these conditions, autumn-winter crop cultivation has prospered for half a century as a back crop of paddy fields, and typical autumn-winter items are lettuce, current price increases, great crops, and wheat, which is active as a staple food. Broccoli seems to have been introduced in the prefecture for the first time due to the demand for diversified vegetable items in the latter half of the 1965s, which is the latter half of the high growth period. Cultivation began in Tadotsu Town, Nakatado District, and after that, it was cultivated throughout the prefecture, but it seems that the production volume declined temporarily due to the increase in cheap imported broccoli from China and the United States. On the other hand, in the Mitoyo area, it seems that the product value was increased by innovating production technology and devising shipping forms such as ice-packed shipping. I heard that this initiative spread throughout the prefecture and became a representative of autumn / winter items. With the support of mechanization, JA, and the cooperation of the production subcommittee, the current planted area is one of the five largest production areas in Japan. Comparing the broccoli cultivation area in the prefecture in the last 10 years, the production in 2008 was 565 hectares, while the production in 2018 was 1170 hectares, more than doubled. It seems that the background was the fall in rice prices, the abolition of rice and wheat subsidies for management income stabilization measures (former farmer household income compensation system), and the entry of baby boomers into agriculture. In addition, it seems that the acreage has expanded due to the improvement of the support system by JA, the rise in transaction prices due to the high leveling of quality, and the expansion of end consumption. In any case, Kagawa has a small cultivated area and cannot be mass-produced, so it seems that it is trying to differentiate itself from domestic and overseas competing production areas by producing high-value-added crops such as high quality and individualization. The mild climate of Setouchi, also known as the Mediterranean Sea of Japan, seems to be the best environment for growing fruits and vegetables. And it seems that the secret to producing beautiful products is the careful manufacturing of each producer. The tomatoes of the skilled producers introduced this time belong to the Solanaceae family and are perennials in the tropics, but they are annual plants in the temperate zone. The place of origin seems to be said to be the western plateau of South America. It was introduced in Japan in the early 18th century, but it seems that it was treated for appreciation at that time. Until the early Showa period, production was insignificant because it did not suit general tastes, but I heard that the cultivated area increased from around 1935. It was prototyped in a glass greenhouse in Kusugami Town, Takamatsu City around the end of the Taisho era, and it seems that the cultivation area increased with the spread of vinyl greenhouses in the early 1955s. In particular, the spread of ripe round ball varieties “Momotaro Tomato” has led to increased consumption and an increase in cultivated area. In addition, it seems that the variety of tomato cultivation has expanded and the consumption has increased significantly due to the spread of quality-enhancing ingredients such as high sugar content tomatoes, medium-sized tomatoes “midi tomatoes”, and mini tomatoes. It is widely known, and it is said that Tang dynasty and “TOMATO” are used in Japan after the Meiji Era. “Momotaro tomato”, Treetop A large pink ball that does not hurt even when shipped after it is fully ripe. A long-established store from the Edo period --Developed by foundation takii & co., Ltd in 1835. However, new producers are cherry tomatoes (cultivation started around 1985, and it seems that it spread rapidly throughout the prefecture with the advent of minicarols. It reached 43ha in 1990, and it seems that it is gradually decreasing since then. Cultivation is soil cultivation. It has shifted to hydroponic cultivation from, and now 60% seems to be hydroponic cultivation. The main production areas are Tadotsu Town, Sanuki City, Zentsuji City, Takamatsu City, Higashi Kagawa City, etc. The variety is CF Chika (dark red and glossy). A certain fruit color, stable from low to high sugar content, excellent taste. Fruit color is deep red and glossy. Fruit weight is 15 to 20 g. Fruit shape is beautiful spherical and good to match. Goku Wase species Excellent yield in the low temperature period), TY Chika (excellent in taste, glossy fruit color) Stable from low to high sugar content. The fruit color is deep red and glossy. Fruit weight is 15 to 20 g. It seems that the fruit shape is a beautiful sphere and the fruit is well-matched. The shape of the calyx is also beautiful, and it looks good when packed. It also seems to be rich in lycopene, a functional ingredient. It seems that the Wase species, which has a stable yield and an early ripening period, has few fluctuations in yield throughout the cultivation period, and stable shipment can be expected). It seems that the production area of large tomatoes is sluggish due to the high selection rate. That is why it is valuable. The main production areas are Sanuki City, Takamatsu City, Kanonji City, etc. Manno Town, which is also an excellent wholesaler of asparagus, is still new, which was created by the merger of three towns in Nakatado District, Kagawa Prefecture (Mano Town, Kotonami Town, and Chunan Town) on March 20, 2006. It's a town. It is located in the southwestern part of the prefecture and has an area of about 194.45 km2. It seems that about 900 reservoirs are scattered in the mountainous area in the west, including "Pond Manno", the best irrigation reservoir in Japan, which is also the origin of the town name. On the south side of the town, Mt. Ryuo, which is over 1,000 meters above sea level, and the Sanuki Mountains, whose main peak is Mt. Okawa, run at the foot of the mountain, and the Doki River, the only first-class river in the prefecture, flows. It was confirmed from the website of Manno Town on April 8, 2022, but the rice price in Manno Town fell sharply due to the influence of the new coronavirus infection in the temporary support fund for the continuation of rice production in Manno Town, so the rice in the town It seems that a subsidy will be provided to the sales farmers to support the continuation of paddy field management this year. For details, check with the Agriculture and Forestry Division of the town and JA Kagawa Fureai Center Kyoei store. Sanuki Manno Park is the only national park in Shikoku with a park area of 350 ha. Taking advantage of the rich nature of Manno Pond and its surroundings, and the cultural soil of Shikoku that gave birth to Kukai, the basic theme was "Talking with humans, contact with nature and space", and maintenance began in 1984. The park was fully opened in April of the year. The blue flowers of Nemophila are in full bloom until the end of this month, which seems to entertain visitors. This flower is an annual plant native to North America and seems to bloom about 3 cm in diameter. In addition, it seems that a total of 550,000 varieties called "Insignis Blue" are planted in the open space "Flower Tour Hill", the flower field "Flower Dragon Road", and "Blue Dragon Valley". "Asparagus" is a perennial plant of the Liliaceae family. Native to Southern Europe. Height is about 1.5 m. The leaves are degenerated and brown scaly. Pine leaf-shaped stems called “pseudo-leaves” photosynthesize. It is customary to eat young stems. "Ukraine" is said to be the place of origin from Southern Europe. It has been cultivated since ancient Greek times and spread throughout Europe. It is said that it was introduced to Japan by the Dutch during the Edo period, mainly for viewing the leaves. As for food, cultivation began in Hokkaido in the Taisho era. Before the war, asparagus was white asparagus for canning. Today, with increasing health consciousness, nutritious green asparagus for raw consumption has become the majority of the distribution. Excellent varieties cultivated in the United States have been cultivated, but in recent years, the cultivation of F1 hybrid(Only overt (dominant) genes are expressed in the next generation of parents' traits ≒ the law of overt - From Japanese junior high school science "dominant / recessive" to "overt / latent". Genetic terms, changed all at once from 2021) varieties with improved matching and quality has increased. The difference between green and white asparagus is due to the cultivation method. There are male and female strains, and the male strain has a higher yield, but it is difficult to distinguish by appearance, but in recent years, all male varieties in which all strains are male strains have been cultivated. It is one of the long-growing vegetables that takes three years from the first planting to the time when it can be harvested. However, the difficulty of cultivation is not so high, and after the third year, you can enjoy harvesting every year for about 10 years. In addition, although it prefers a cool climate, it can withstand the heat to some extent and is resistant to dryness. Asparagus, a specialty of Kagawa Prefecture, was first introduced in the open field in 1970 as a paddy field crop. From around 1982, cane blight (at first, the branching part of the stem turns brown, black grains are formed, and there are spores in the grains. Finally, the whole stem seems to die. Asparagus semi-promoted growth period cultivated As a comprehensive control system for stem blight, cultivated control (removal of residual stems and burning of burner) suppresses the onset of stalk blight for a long period of time. It seems that the comprehensive control system (cultivation control and chemical control during the cultivation period) keeps the onset of stem blight low. The comprehensive control system is also effective for brown spot disease. Agricultural control that removes the residual stems from the underground part (3 to 5 cm below the ground surface) and burns the residual stems with a burner suppresses the onset of stem blight for a long period of time. Work so as not to damage the buds. It seems that it is desirable to remove mainly the affected part of the previous work because the removal work is laborious. It is said that burner incineration should be done before the sprouting of spring buds (February) It seems that greenhouse cultivation has become common due to measures and early harvesting. Currently, 95% is cultivated in greenhouse, and the remaining 5% is cultivated in the open field. It seems that there are two varieties, "Welcome Asparagus" and "Sanuki no Mezame Asparagus", which is a cultivar raised in Kagawa prefecture. It is characterized by the fact that the tips of the ears do not open easily even when they grow. Therefore, it is possible to harvest even if it is stretched to twice the normal amount, the tips are tight, and the roots are soft. When you try it, it has a crispy texture and a refreshing sweetness that spreads throughout your mouth. According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries variety registration website, application number 14835, application date 2002/07/08, application publication date 2002/12/16, registration number 13197, registration date 2005/06/22, breeding The duration of the breeder's right is 25 years, the date when the breeder's right is extinguished. Name and address of the cultivar registrant Kagawa Prefecture (Takamatsu City, Kagawa Prefecture) be. Outline of the characteristics of the plant of the registered cultivar This cultivar is a hybrid cultivar whose mother and paternity are the breeding line owned by the applicant. It is a variety for green asparagus that has a tight tightness and early and late sprouting. The plant height is long, the stem thickness and internode length are medium, the leaf length is slightly long, and the density is medium. The thickness and matching of the young stems are medium, the color is slightly light green, the expression of anthocyanins is slightly high, the number of stems is large, the shape of the head is type I, the color is slightly light green, the tightness of the head is tight, and the head is open. Early and late in the evening, the color of the leaflets is slightly light green, the expression of anthocyanins is medium, and the uplift of the engraftment part is type II. The color of the perianth is yellow, the color of the veins is green, the length of the male flower and some are medium. The low temperature requirement is quite low, the early and late sprouting is quite early, and the proportion of male strains is medium. Compared to "Merry Washington 500 W Asparagus" and "Welcome Asparagus", it is said that the distinction is recognized by the large number of young stems, the tightness of the head, and the early and late sprouting. This excellent asparagus was introduced in the prefecture in 2002, and it seems that the variety composition ratio is 37% for "Welcome Asparagus" and 63% for "Sanuki no Mezame Asparagus". Shipment destinations are Kanto 30%, Kansai 30%, Shikoku 30%, and others 10%, shipping from January to October. I heard that the peak shipments are March, April and July, August. The town's agriculture is centered on rice cultivation, but it seems that vegetables such as onions, garlic and broccoli are also cultivated and poultry farming is also carried out. Fruit trees of peaches and persimmons are being cultivated in the hilly mountainous areas in the south. Green asparagus and flowers are also cultivated in facility horticulture. As an aside, Virulent bird flu A (has a very wide host range (range of infectious animal species), not only poultry such as "humans" and chickens (birds such as chickens, ducks, quail), but also horses. H5N1 - A strain of highly pathogenic avian influenza virus - is rapidly becoming a global concern. A new SciencePerspective discusses the factors that have led to global H5N1 outbreaks, the consequences of this spread, and what can be done to curb it. There are signs of flu, so we have to foresee the danger before the corona sickness is over, and Japan must revive again, but economic measures are still unclear and there is no prospect of escaping from the crisis of stagflation. Am I the only one? Broccoli is a member of the cabbage family and belongs to the Brassicaceae family. The characteristics are similar to Hanayasai, but depending on the variety, there are varieties that harvest mainly the top buds, and others that harvest both the top buds and the side buds. The edible part of broccoli is the enlarged stem, the apical florets containing the undeveloped vase. Flower buds are green, the flower bulbs are less uneven, the flower vases are dense and the size is small, and the quality of the dome-shaped bulb is said to be good. This excellent agricultural product was introduced to Kagawa Prefecture in the 1965s, and has since been cultivated throughout the prefecture. The Seto Inland Sea climate is warm with little rainfall, and the hours of sunlight are long in winter. Cultivated as a secondary crop for paddy fields, the number of plantings has increased year by year due to the work support system and shipping packed in ice. The peak shipment is in March every year. Cultivation began in Tadotsu Town and was later expanded throughout the prefecture, but the production volume temporarily declined due to an increase in cheap imported broccoli from China and the United States. On the other hand, in the Mitoyo area, it seems that the product value has been increased by innovating production technology and devising shipping methods such as packing ice. This initiative spread throughout the prefecture, and broccoli became the representative autumn/winter item. Thanks to mechanization, support from JA, and cooperation from the production subcommittee, the current planted area has become a large production area. In 2002, the Kagawa Prefectural Agricultural Cooperative was established in Kagawa Prefecture through the wide area merger of JA, and broccoli has been positioned as the prefecture's main crop, and the planted area is still expanding.


The volume of shipment is second in Japan after Hokkaido. Rice acreage reduction policy (the acreage reduction policy, which was implemented in earnest in 1971 to curb production due to overproduction, was abolished in 2018 after about 50 years of history. In the postwar era of food shortages, rice It would not be an exaggeration to say that raising the production volume was a problem for the entire country.In order to solve this problem, technological innovations such as the introduction of fertilizers and agricultural machinery were promoted. This would lead to a large increase in the production volume of rice. Succeeded.Rice became the staple food of the household both in name and reality. However, after that, common sense gradually collapsed.Because of the influence of the American rule, the Japanese dining table became westernized, and bread became the staple food.) was in full swing, the planted area was expanded, and it became one of the leading production areas. Behind this was the generous support of the Kagawa Prefectural Agricultural Cooperative (JA Kagawa Prefecture). Based on the diversified demand for vegetable items in Kagawa Prefecture, it was started by taking advantage of the Seto Inland Sea climate with mild winters and little annual rainfall. As one of the side crops of rice farming, cultivation started in Tadotsu town in the prefecture and expanded to the whole prefecture, but I heard that it was temporarily overpowered by cheap rice from the United States. In the Heisei period, farmers in Mitoyo City aimed to differentiate themselves from domestically produced freshness and quality seems to have developed.

When comparing the broccoli cultivation area in Kagawa Prefecture over the last 10 years, the 2008 production was 565 hectares, while the 2030 production more than doubled to 1,170 hectares. The background is the decline in rice prices, the abolition of subsidies for rice and wheat as part of measures to stabilize farmer income (former household income compensation system for farmers), and the baby-boom generation (post-war generation born between 1947 and 1949. Born during Japan's first baby boom, the generation that experienced the bubble period and the Heisei recession) seems to have entered agriculture. In addition, the planted area increased due to the improvement of the support system by JA, the rise in transaction prices due to the high standardization of quality, and the expansion of end consumption. When comparing the broccoli cultivation area in Kagawa Prefecture over the last 10 years, the 2008 production was 565 hectares, while the 2030 production more than doubled to 1,170 hectares.  The background is the decline in rice prices, the abolition of subsidies for rice and wheat as part of measures to stabilize farmer income (former household income compensation system for farmers), and the baby-boom generation (post-war generation born between 1947 and 1949).

Located in the northeastern part of Shikoku, with the Sanuki Mountains to the south and the Seto Inland Sea to the north, it is dotted with islands. At the end of the Shikoku pilgrimage (to the 88 temples), a tour of sacred sites, broccoli is a typical crop in Kagawa Prefecture.
The suitable temperature for growing is 15 to 20 degrees Celsius, which is suitable for autumn to early winter in Kagawa Prefecture, so it seems to be an easy item to grow. Producers and JA Kagawa Prefecture have worked together to repeatedly test the cultivation method, and the harvest season is from October to mid-June of the following nine months every year. This is the result of the effort put in by all parties involved in the cultivar testing, so that they can harvest for a long period of time while properly using cultivars such as Wase, Nakate, Okute, and forcing. In addition, I heard that JA Kagawa Prefecture is carrying out three types of support work for producers. First of all, as a "seedling support", we receive orders from producers at the wide-area nursery center in JA Kagawa Prefecture, raise all the seedlings and supply them. This makes it easier to standardize quality. Furthermore, as planting support, we are working to reduce the work burden by contracting the planting work of producers. In addition, we are working to improve facilities so that JA Kagawa Prefecture can handle the packing of harvested broccoli, which has been a heavy burden on producers, and to support the packing of broccoli. The work support allows producers to concentrate on cultivation, which helps individual farmers expand their acreage, which seems to have led to today's increase in planted acreage. In addition, the Broccoli Subcommittee of the Kagawa Prefectural Vegetable and Flower Producers Study Group holds board meetings two to three times a year to report on the status of production and sales.

Nobushige Hozumi: Born in 1855, at the age of 7 he studied at the domain school Meirinkan and achieved excellent grades. At the age of 16, he entered Kaisei School (the predecessor of the University of Tokyo) to study law. He graduated with excellent grades and upon graduating he went to England for three years to study legal systems on government funding, followed by two years at the University of Berlin in Germany. He returned to Japan in 1881 and became a lecturer at the Faculty of Law of the University of Tokyo, his alma mater, in charge of civil law. In 1882, he became a professor and dean of the Faculty of Law, and at the age of 33 became Japan's first doctor of law. He changed his university lectures to Japanese and switched to easy-to-understand lectures, and is nurturing many juniors. In 1891, the Russian Crown Prince, who was visiting Japan, was injured by a constable in the "Otsu Incident" (Nikolai Alexandrovich Romanov's attempted assassination in Otsu Town, Shiga County, Shiga Prefecture, when he was suddenly slashed and injured by a police officer, Sanzo Tsuda. In November 1890, when Nicholas II was crown prince (22 years old at the time), he left Russia to attend the groundbreaking ceremony of the Trans-Siberian Railway on behalf of his father, Russian Emperor Alexander III, and traveled to Egypt, India, and Sri Lanka. , Singapore, Vietnam, China, etc., and called at Nagasaki on April 27, 1891. In Japan, Prince Arisugawa, who had met the crown prince in Russia, welcomed him as an attendant. Preparations were meticulously made: he traveled through Japan to Nagasaki, Kagoshima, Kobe, Kyoto, Osaka, Nara, Yokohama, Tokyo, Kamakura, Atami, Nikko, Sendai, Matsushima, Morioka, and Aomori on May 31. He was scheduled to leave Japan on May 19. However, due to an incident, he ended up leaving Japan earlier than planned, on May 19, without stopping in Tokyo. It is a well-known story that Korekata Kojima (1837-1908), the Chief of the Supreme Court, asked for his opinion. Regarding the "Hozumi Bridge'', there was a growing trend to build a bronze statue to commemorate his achievements. It seems that he was refused because of the story. So, it seems that Hozumi Bridge was born with the approval of the teacher's name to be used for the bridge under renovation. The memorial was erected in July 1992. At the National University of Tsukuba, there is the “Hozumi book collection” by Professor Nobuhide Hozumi and his eldest son, Professor Shigeto Hozumi jurist. After studying at Daigaku Nanko(Location: One of the predecessors of the University of Tokyo, Kanda Hitotsubashi is located southwest of Ochanomizu where our school is located.)and Kaisei High School, he went to England and Germany in 1876. He earned the title of barrister at the Middle Temple in London and studied at the University of Berlin before returning to Japan. As a professor at the Faculty of Law, the University of Tokyo, he is in charge of legal science and English law. In 1893, as a member of the Code Research Committee, he drafted a civil code, and after that he worked on importing British and independent law, and was involved in many legislations. In 1890, he was elected member of the House of Peers for the first time. 1916 Privy Councilor.

Tarocco oranges are said to have originated in Italy in the early 20th century from the blood orange variety Sanguinello Moscate. It is unknown when it was introduced to Japan, but he was introduced to Ehime Prefecture in 1973. A nuclear selection of Moscato Sanguinello obtained in 1949 at Acireale (Sicily, Italy) with the aim of establishing the type variety for subsequent geographic designation. Sanguinellos is one of three colored orange varieties native to Sicily, along with Tarocco and Moro. In fact, Tarocco appears to be an early mutation of the common Sanguinero. Is characterized by medium acidity (moscato is sweet, meaning Muscat) and is a highly valued colored orange, making it the most important Sanguinello variety in Sicily. A very vigorous and productive tree with long shoots forming a rounded, symmetrical crown. Medium-sized spherical fruit tending to have a flat apex. The rind is thin and smooth, bright orange with red pigmented areas. Melting flesh with red pigmentation that corresponds to the exterior color. You can enjoy moderately juicy, fruity and sweet aroma. A high quality variety for fresh consumption and homemade juices as uses.

In Ainan Town, Minamiuwa County, Ehime Prefecture, shipping work for broccoli, a local specialty, is being actively carried out. JA Ehime Minami ships about 200 tons of broccoli annually, of which Ainan Town is known nationwide as the number one producer of broccoli in the prefecture with about 40 hectares. In the town, the broccoli is packed in a styrofoam box with ice to keep it fresh. There is According to JA, the typhoon in September 2022 caused damage such as submerged seedlings, but after that it is expected to grow smoothly and the shipment volume will be the same as usual. The shipment of broccoli will continue until June, and is scheduled to be shipped inside and outside the prefecture such as Kansai. Uwajima City is located in the Nanyo region in the southwestern part of Ehime Prefecture, approximately 100 km southwest of Matsuyama City, the prefectural capital. It borders Seiyo City to the north, Kihoku Town and Matsuno Town to the east, and Ainan Town, Sukumo City, and Shimanto City in Kochi Prefecture to the south. Facing the Uwa Sea to the west, it has a typical rias coast with a complex mixture of coves and peninsulas, and there are five inhabited islands and many uninhabited islands. The Onigajo mountain range on the east side has a steepness approaching the sea. It has a complex terrain with many undulations. The coastal plains and inland basins are dotted with urban areas and villages, and most of the rivers flow into the Uwa Sea, but some rivers join the Shimanto River to form Kochi Prefecture. Flowing to It measures 38.15 km from east to west and 34.9 km from north to south, including manned islands, and has an area of 469.58 km2. Forests account for 70.9%, fields for 17.3%, and residential land for 2.9%. The climate is located between the Setouchi area and the Pacific coastal area, with an average annual temperature of 16 to 17°C and warm throughout the formula. , and in some years it exceeds 2,500 mm. In addition, the west side faces the Bungo Channel and the east side has a range of high peaks of 1,000 m class, so the northwest monsoon blows in winter, and there is a difference in temperature and rainfall between the coastal area and the mountainous area, and snow accumulates in the mountainous area. It seems to have a multifaceted climate, such as freezing and freezing. Status of infrastructure development Regarding road development, the Shikoku Transect Expressway between Seiyo-Uwa IC and Uwajima-Kita IC opened on March 10, 2012, greatly shortening the travel time from Matsuyama City, the city where the prefectural capital is located. Or, on March 21, 2015, the entire Uwajima Road opened, and it seems that it is expected to improve the efficiency of logistics and expand the non-resident population. In terms of industrial structure, the production value of Uwajima City in 2013 was 369.9 billion yen (Regional Economic Analysis System, Regional Economic Circulation Map (Production Analysis)). %), secondary industry 17.4% (38.7%), and tertiary industry 76.4% (60.0%). In addition, the farming population is 3,800 people, accounting for 9% of the prefecture as a whole, and the city is centered on agriculture, forestry and fisheries. This is due to the unique natural conditions such as the temperate climate, sloping terrain, and inland basins. However, this is because agriculture has developed since ancient times, and even now, fruit trees are actively cultivated in the steep orchards that were opened by our predecessors, making it one of the leading citrus production areas in Japan. It has also developed as a fisheries town that makes use of the Uwa Sea, which is rich in blessings that spread throughout the western region. The cultivation of fish such as oysters and the cultivation of pearls and mother-of-pearl oysters are actively carried out. As goals related to the economic effect of promoting projects that drive the regional economy, the outline of the future image of the region to be aimed for is to maintain and revitalize the regional economy while the domestic population is declining. Sending is important. In Uwajima City, we are promoting high value-added and branding of locally produced agricultural, forestry and fishery products, as well as sophistication and resilience of industries related to agriculture, forestry and fishery products that support the local economy, and sales including exports to overseas. By supporting activities aimed at increasing the income of producers and revitalizing production areas, we will create a business that drives the local economy in the fields of agriculture, forestry and fisheries, and local trading companies, which are the main industries of the region. Within the region It seems that they are aiming for a virtuous cycle of the economy. Uwajima City is a town that merged with the former Uwajima City, Yoshida Town, Mima Town, and Tsushima Town in 2005, but it seems that there is no stopping the downward trend now. However, it has developed as an agricultural town that takes advantage of its unique natural conditions, such as its mild climate, sloping terrain, and inland basins, as well as a fishery town that makes use of the Uwa Sea, which is rich in blessings that stretches across the western region. Ehime Prefecture produces 220,000 tons of citrus fruits, ranking first in Japan. Madonna, Harumi, Harehime, Kanpei, Haruka, Natsumi, Amakusa, Marihime, Tarokko, Himenotsuki, Encore, Lime, and Himekoharu ranked first in 19 varieties, and Wenzhou mandarin orange ranked second in Japan. Ehime is known as the citrus kingdom, but the Nanyo region, centered on Uwajima City, is the center of citrus production. In addition, the Ehime Prefectural Mikan Research Institute, located in Uwajima City, is engaged in ambitious research and development that will lead to an increase in the income of producers, such as developing new varieties with high marketability and researching preservation methods that can be shipped until the summer. seems to be working on it. Ehime Prefecture has a total coastline length of about 1,700 km, the fifth largest in Japan, and is used by various fishing boats. At the same time, Uwajima City is also actively engaged in fish farming and pearl farming using the ria coastline. The production volume is about 6.8 tons, which is No. 1 in the prefecture (Ehime Prefecture has the highest production of marine aquaculture, about 57,000 tons, and pearl culture production of 7.5 tons, both of which are the highest in Japan). In addition, 37 million vegetable seedlings are sold annually due to the thriving production of agricultural products. Related industries that make use of the abundant resources are also developing, such as a company (the largest market share in Japan) growing based in Uwajima. In addition, the “Ehime Love Food Promotion Organization”, which consists of people involved in agriculture, forestry and fisheries, plays a central role in certifying brands of agricultural, forestry and fishery products and their processed products, supporting market development, and promoting local production for local consumption. Furthermore, in cooperation with the organization, the prefecture's Ai no Kuni Ehime Sales Headquarters, which was organized in 2012, also promotes agricultural, forestry and fishery products that the prefecture is proud of. It seems that they are trying to promote sales of the prefecture's agricultural, forestry and fishery products by utilizing the "Sugoaji(Easy-to-understand product information on 397 products (agricultural, forestry and fishery products, processed foods, etc.) that Ehime Prefecture is proud of. Equipped with a practical search function by category, it promotes business matching by providing product information according to the purpose of target buyers and general consumers. By linking with the websites of listed companies and EC sites, we provide opportunities for general consumers to purchase products and support the expansion of sales channels.)" database of food items. In order to maintain and revitalize the local economy of Uwajima City, which is centered on primary industry, it is important to revitalize industries related to agriculture, forestry and fisheries. Therefore, in addition to developing new products that make use of the abundant citrus fruits and other specialty products and efforts to increase added value, we will develop sales channels with a view to exporting overseas, and create businesses that drive the local economy, such as the production and distribution of seedlings. By doing so, it will be possible to further improve productivity and expand consumption, as well as revitalize the production area by increasing the income of producers, which will lead to the development of the local economy. Kihoku Town, Kitauwa County has been confirmed to have been inhabited by people since ancient times, as seen in the Iwatani ruins of the Jomon period and the description of red sand (mercury sulfide mineral) presented in the Shokunihongi. (The history of mining the Nogawa-Fumori Mercury Mine since the Meiji Era began in 1894 when Fujita Group, a joint-stock company in Osaka, obtained mining rights. Since then, mining has been closed, and there have been many changes in management. It continued until the mine closed in 1952. After that, no mining was done at this mercury mine, and over the years the pithead (entrance to the mine) was completely blocked due to landslides, and trees grew overgrown. (Because it's closed, it's hard to tell at a glance that it's the remains of a mercury mine.) Also, based on excavation surveys of the former precincts of Tomyoji Temple, including national historic sites, it is believed that in the Middle Ages, a cultural sphere was formed as 'Kurodo Township Kawarabuchi Territory'. In modern times, it was divided into the Uwajima Domain and the Yoshida Domain, and after the abolition of feudal domains and establishment of prefectures in 1871, it belonged to Uwajima Prefecture, Yoshida Prefecture, Uwajima Prefecture, Kamiyama Prefecture, and became a part of Ehime Prefecture in 1873. In 1889, with the implementation of the municipal system, the former Hiromi Town became Asahi Village, and on January 1, 1941, it became Chikanaga Town. It became Koto Village, Aiji Village, Mishima Village, and Izumi Village, and five towns and villages were merged on March 31, 1955 to form 'Hiromi Town' under the Municipal Merger Promotion Law that came into effect in 1953. After that, in August 1958, the Korenobe Village was transferred to Mima Town. Split into In 1890, the former Hiyoshi village merged with five villages and became Hiyoshi village. Furthermore, on January 1, 2005, Hiromi Town and Hiyoshi Village, which are historically and geographically closely related, were merged to form “Kihoku Town”. The town is located in the southwestern part of Ehime Prefecture, 28.0 km east-west, 20.8 km north-south, with a total area of 241.87 km2. The topography is a basin surrounded by the Shikoku Mountains, with Mt. Takatsuki, Mt. Gozaisho, Mt. Togi Gozen, Mt. Koken and Mt. Jizo. The Hiromi River runs through the center of the town. The surrounding area is blessed with rich nature such as the Onigajo mountain range and Togi Gozenyama, and has unique historical and cultural resources such as Iyo shinto music. Our lives have become materially rich and convenient along with economic development and technological development as a response to global environmental problems and the construction of a recycling-oriented society. However, by enjoying such a lifestyle, we are faced with the burden on the global environment, which is the foundation for human beings to continue to live in abundance, such as climate change due to global warming and the generation of large amounts of waste. In the country, each region forms a self-reliant and decentralized society in which resources are circulated according to each region's characteristics, and a regional circulation and symbiotic sphere in which urban and rural fishing villages complement each other in their economic activities. Promoting the construction of. In Kihoku Town, in order to raise awareness of environmental conservation and prevent global warming, the 3Rs (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle of garbage are expressed in English. Manufacture, process and sell in such a way that they are less likely to be disposed of as waste. Reuse: To reuse without discarding as garbage. Recycle: To recycle as a recycled resource.), the utilization of environmental cleansing microorganisms, and the promotion of the installation of residential solar power generation systems. In the future, we will continue to reduce the environmental burden through cooperation between townspeople, business operators, and the government, in order to build a sustainable recycling-oriented society that coexists with the environment, including the conservation of the natural environment, the reduction of waste, and the circulation of resources and energy. It seems that it is necessary to promote efforts to minimize it. As a response to the shortage of people who will lead regional development, while the population is rapidly declining nationwide, labor shortages are a chronic problem in all areas in rural areas. , scenery, etc. It is becoming more difficult to maintain the local community, and local treasures are being lost all over the country. In addition, in order to respond to the decrease in the number of people engaged in agriculture and forestry, which is a key industry. In the plan, efforts were made to secure new farmers and bearers. On the other hand, the number of members of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry is on the decline due to business closures, etc., and the number of business establishments that may be closed due to a lack of successors seems to be increasing. In addition, it seems that the aging of regional development human resources has become remarkable. In the future, he argues that it is necessary to continue to establish a system to secure workers. Matsuno Town, Kitauwa County is located in the southwest region of Shikoku and belongs to Kitauwa County, Ehime Prefecture. It borders Kihoku Town in the north, Uwajima City in the west, and Shimanto City in Kochi Prefecture from the east to the south surrounding. The straight line distance to Uwajima city, which is the central city area, is about 30 km. The 1,200-meter-high Onigajo mountain range runs through the southwestern part of the town, while the Togi Gozen mountain range runs in the northeastern part. Hiromi River is the center of town. By developing river terraces in the basin while meandering through the river, it seems to have supported the livelihoods and livelihoods of the residents since ancient times. The Nametoko valley on the Meguro River is designated as part of Ashizuri-Uwakai National Park in recognition of its rich forest resources and beauty of the valley. The town has an area of 98.45 km2, of which 84% of its total area is forest and wilderness, and only 8% is arable land. In such an environment, Matsuno Town has adopted the town's catchphrase, "Forest Country." The southwest mountainous massif of the Shikoku mountain range covers the entire town, forming a mountain range, with countless large and small valleys and streams in between, forming a typical mountainous topography. It also belongs to the Shimanto belt south of the Buddhist statue structure line. Most of the Matsuno town area consists of Mesozoic late Cretaceous sedimentary rocks and accretionary complexes, including sandstone, mudstone, alternating layers of sandstone and mudstone, and mixed rocks. However, from the Meguro area in the south to the Uwajima city area in the west. The Onigajo mountain range and the headwaters of the Meguro River were constructed during the Neo-Tertiary period of the Cenozoic Era. Igneous rock of the world, granite formed by erosion Characterized by a river bed. Therefore, it seems that hotel management and canyoning that take advantage of the natural beauty and valley beauty are being carried out. There is a large elevation difference in each area of the town, and the Hiromi River basin Mado and Suzui, which are river terrace areas, are around 65 m above sea level, Nobenononaka Group is around 87 m above him, and this is in the Kihoku region. Is the lowest elevation of On the other hand, the highest point in town Koyagamori in Meguro is 1,184 m above sea level. It is characterized by a large vertical change as a whole It seems to be. All rivers flowing through the Matsuno area belong to the Shimanto River system. The Shimanto River has two tributaries, the Hiromi River and the Meguro River, both of which join the Shimanto River on the Kochi Prefecture side. The source of the Hiromi River is in the mountains of Kihoku Town, north of Matsuno Town. In the Matsuno town area, the flow repeatedly meanders, and the surrounding area is the bottom of a valley. A wide plain is formed. When entering the Kochi prefecture area, the formation of the valley bottom plain is poor, and the scenery changes greatly because it changes like a meandering between mountains. The source of the Meguro River is Nametoko, Uwajima City, which is only about 5 km away from Uwajima City. However, there are 1,000-meter-class mountains in between, and the direct road from Uwajima city to Nametoko is not maintained, and rather, it seems that the area is regarded as an integrated area with the Meguro district of Matsuno Town. The Meguro River in the Matsuno town area seems to have the characteristic of flowing straight through a rather wide valley without making a big meander. On the other hand, entering the Kochi Prefecture side, after a while, the Meguro River also runs through the mountains. It becomes meandering. In this way, the Hiromi River and the Meguro River in the Matsuno Town area have a common point that the formation of the valley bottom plain is progressing compared to the Kochi Prefecture side. The Meguro River flow against the formation. The fact that the area is a linear valley bottom plain appears to be a striking difference in landscape. In addition, although it belongs to the Nankai-type climatic zone on the Pacific coast, where there is a lot of rainfall throughout the year, the climate is somewhat inland due to the fact that it is a cluster of mountains. For this reason, although there are large daily and annual mild climate. The annual average temperature from July 2019 to June 2020 in Section of Village Matsumaru is 16.7℃, and the average precipitation is expected to exceed about 2,700 mm. Compared to Matsuyama City, which is the center of Ehime Prefecture, the temperature is lower and the amount of rainfall is higher. June and July are the months with the most rainfall, and are affected by the rainy season and typhoons. In the heavy rain in July 2018, the Hiromi River collapsed due to the flooding, and the Nobeno and Yoshino areas were flooded and suffered great damage. In addition to seasonal winds in the summer and winter, strong winds due to typhoons are also frequently observed as the area is located in the southwest region of Shikoku, which is prone to typhoons. The winter monsoon blows from the continent to the northwest, but because it passes through the Kanmon Straits and hits directly, it sometimes brings strong winds and snowfall. In particular, the Meguro area, which is located on the southeast side of the Onigajo mountain range, which has an altitude of 1,200 m, will experience strong winds due to the Foehn phenomenon. In the Meguro area, these strong winter winds are called "west winds". In addition, early and late frosts occur, and many morning hazes are seen from late autumn to winter, which seems to be a climatic feature of this area. In addition to improving the disaster prevention system based on the regional disaster prevention plan and business continuity plan (BCP) and strengthening the activities of the voluntary disaster prevention association, we learned from the experience of the heavy rain disaster in July 2018 that we would like to protect lives even during the corona disaster. Based on the concept of "disaster mitigation" that focuses on minimizing damage, we will strengthen and support efforts for self-help and mutual assistance so that each resident can quickly and independently take evacuation action. Promote various disaster prevention and mitigation measures. In the construction sector, we will systematically implement measures to improve road networks and deal with aging facilities. In the water supply business, we are striving to systematically promote projects based on facility renewal plans for earthquake resistance and aging countermeasures for water supply facilities and pipes, which are urgent issues. Enhancement of disaster prevention and mitigation measures in preparation for earthquakes and floods, communication of disaster information, and improvement of facilities, measures against earthquakes and aging of simple water supply facilities, and stable supply of high-quality tap water. Securing means of transportation such as the operation of community buses and the continuation of the JR Yodo Line. Specifications for maintenance of community roads, irrigation canals, street lights, etc. assembling. Securing housing and residential land that meet diverse housing environment needs and enhancing the reform system. A “forest country” of safe and comfortable living. In school education, by introducing the school management council system, the school and the community share the idea of "raising children who can protect and raise Matsuno, their hometown", and it seems that they are trying to realize it through cooperation and cooperation with the community. In social education, we create lifelong learning opportunities, and work on community-solution learning that leads to the practice of community development. In addition to striving to build a community, we promote human rights and social integration (esp. of burakumin) education that is both qualitative and quantitative in order to respect each other's human rights in all educational activities and to eliminate all forms of discrimination and prejudice, including Buraku discrimination. In terms of promoting child-rearing measures, we will continue measures to reduce the burden of medical expenses, school lunches, childcare fees, etc.; It seems that they will provide continuous and detailed support for school education after school, and create an environment where parents can work with peace of mind. Promotion of education with characteristics and future prospects that match the individuality and interests of each student. Reduce the burden on child-rearing households and strengthen the functions of nursery schools to meet diverse childcare needs. Promotion of human rights and Dowa education to eliminate all discrimination and prejudice. Promote a curriculum that nurtures children's pride and attachment to their community. Enhancement of English education and education for international understanding in the wake of the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics. "Forest country" where children's dreams spread. It seems that it will strive to establish a sustainable administrative and financial foundation in the future by working to streamline and prioritize projects, secure financial resources, and devote itself to financial management with a sense of crisis. Ainan Town, Minamiuwa District: I hope that the people who live here will love Town, love Region and people, and everyone will help each other and become a healthy city. Former 5 towns and villages (Uchiumi village, Misho town, Jyohen town, Ipponmatsu town, Nishiumi town): Born on October 1, 2004 by merger. An area blessed with a natural environment facing the Bungo Channel in the west, with a view of the Pacific Ocean with the Kuroshio Current in the south. In the northern part of Minamiuwa District, there is the Sasayama branch of the Ipponmatsu area, which branches off from the Shikoku Mountains. A plain is opened in the basin of the Sozu River, and the Mishou area and the Jyohen area are formed in this plain. Ashizuri-Uwakai National Park: Uchiumi, Mishou, Jyohen and Nishiumi areas: It is blessed with abundant nature and is benefiting from the fishing industry and tourism. Warm throughout the season, with a lot of rain during the rainy season and a South Sea climate.The beautiful scenery created by the ria coast is soothing. It is blessed with marine resources such as pearl oyster, which boasts the highest production and harvest in Japan, and bonito, which boasts the highest landing volume in Shikoku. Coral and tropical fish inhabit the waters around Kashima (Hojo). Also famous for scuba diving. Received the "Beautiful Village Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Award" from Japan: NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF FISHERIES INFRASTRUCTURE: Stone wall village, 100 selections of historical and cultural properties of fishing villages that you want to leave for the future: Fisheries Agency, Ancient city preservation foundation etc.; 100 beautiful historical climates of Japan. Valuable historical assets such as archaeological sites and historic sites such as the Heijo shell mound remain. Mr. Choei Takano Built-in Daiba, Mishou Battery. The Hisayoshi gun battery (Hisayoshi, Ainan Town) built by Choei during this period is reputed to be the crystallization of the best technology of that time. In addition, regarding the construction of the new government building, which is an urgent issue, we will work on the smooth transition of operations and the development of an efficient management and operation system toward the start of service in February 2022. In addition, in order to create a cheerful workplace that is trusted by the townspeople, it seems that they will strive to improve their problem-solving skills through SDGs training, as well as self-development through systematic staff training and efforts to improve the quality of staff. Promotion of new government building development projects and establishment of an efficient management and operation system: Support for resident self-government activities in each village. Promotion of administrative and financial reforms through selection and concentration. A “forest country” with extensive training and a solid administrative and financial foundation. It is clear that the ja group's "Union member survey" is indispensable for building infrastructure in Japan. JA plays an important role in food, agriculture, regional infrastructure of areas, etc., and is evaluated as an indispensable organization. COVID-19 infection: A place that threatens our lives without declining, especially in big cities, and at the same time gives strong anxiety to the people and is struggling to respond. We have experienced a virus that has spread worldwide in a short period of time. Worldwide Infected people number about 200 million, with 100 million dead. It can be said that we have entered an era in which the fight against viruses is of the utmost importance in the past, now and in the future. Because new viruses are confirmed every year. Various activities heal the mind in an unexpected appearance, trying to fight the uncertain virus and cheer up even a little. In the current region, depopulation is progressing due to the decreasing birth rate and aging population, and marginal settlements are not behind. It seems that the number of free-standing gardens is increasing due to the serious problem of successors. What can we do with these problems? It will be to know as many products as possible and to value the involvement of agricultural products. There are many inconveniences and problems in Japan today. It would be that consumers too do not understand the value of things and how our bodies work. People have to start with food, live, and continue to eat until they die. Medical and clothing, Hobbies and entertainment are not the following, but it can be said that life is entirely determined by food. It is the capital that the body is strong to relieve sleep and stress. I understand the distinction between cheap and expensive, but Government basic policy is to make even a little effort in profitable agriculture. Now, let's start introducing the region of skilled producers time. The harvest season for ‘Moro Citrus’ is about half a month from early February to mid-February. The image is that the period is short and the harvest ends in an instant. It is an Italian variety that is mainly produced for processing, but here it is also produced for raw consumption. However, it is important to determine the harvest, and once the harvest date is decided, it is said that all the harvest will be completed within half a month. After harvesting, lay it down to remove water and keep it on the shelf to remove water. Over time, the skin of the fruit is scratched immediately after harvesting, and the scratches that cannot be seen with the naked eye tend to emerge naturally. After that, we sort and ship only non-defective products without scratches. The color immediately after harvesting is a mottled pattern such as orange or red, but the more you lay it down, the more the color changes from red to blackish. Only this blood orange contains anthocyanins in Citrus, and it has a strong sweetness. Blood oranges, which are native to Sicily, Italy, are citrus fruits that are not suitable for cultivation in Japan due to their weakness in the cold. Although it was introduced to Ehime Prefecture in the 1965s, it seems that it could not withstand the cold of winter and was only cultivated in some warm regions. However, as the average temperature in Uwajima City rose by 1 degree Celsius over the next 30 years, the number of farmers who cultivated it gradually increased from around 2003. In 2009, the "Ehime Minami Blood Orange Cultivation Committee" was formed, and the country's first blood orange production area was planned. In detail, the climate of Uwajima City is warm and rainy with an annual average temperature of 17.1℃ and an annual rainfall of approximately 1,600 mm, making it the optimum climate for cultivating blood oranges. In the past, however, the minimum temperature dropped below -3°C, causing frost damage to the fruit, making it difficult to grow blood oranges. Due to the effects of global warming in recent years, the average temperature has risen by 1°C in the last 30 years, and the effects of extreme temperatures in winter have decreased, so it seems that the cultivation of blood oranges has finally become possible. In addition, the city faces the Uwa Sea, and the production area has been formed along the ria coastline with many coves. is a condition for production. In 2009, he set up the "Processing Research Council" and focused on the cultivation and storage of blood oranges, processing technology, and PR activities for consumers. In addition, the "Processing Research Council" uses processing technology to create processed products. Blood orange is a general term for citrus fruits native to Italy, such as tarocco and moro, which have red skin and flesh. Tarocco blood oranges ripen from March to April. Compared to Moro blood oranges, they are larger and have a higher sugar content. Compared to oranges, it has a strong reddish color and tends to be low in sugar and high in acid, so it is widely used as a processed product. In Japan, it seems that there was no production area that cultivated both varieties together. The Cultivation Subcommittee and relevant prefectural organizations worked together to set up demonstration fields and conduct surveys on the stable, high-quality production of blood oranges, establishing the technology. , Food manufacturers collaborate to research processing technology and create various processed products. The cultivation subcommittee promoted two pillars: clarification of problems in cultivation (including storage), establishment of countermeasure technology, and promotion of PR activities to consumers and the market. Since sales are conducted through JA, it was positioned as JA's production organization. As for the annual events of the department, sales promotions are held in the Tokyo metropolitan area during the fruit shipping season from May to August, and the general meeting is held in June, and the three council meetings are held from time to time to discuss the operation of the department. Since fiscal 2014, we have been working with 14 local and prefectural confectionery and food companies, including the cultivation subcommittee, JA, prefectures, cities, and the Uwajima Established the Blood Orange Production and Processing Promotion Consortium to promote production expansion and sales promotion activities (including processed products). The Tarocco variety, which is native to Sicily, Italy, is the sweetest of all blood oranges, has a refreshing acidity, and has a very rich taste. I recommended it to my friends, but it seems to have become a habit. The flesh is very tender, with a melting texture, moderate sweetness and sourness, and a deep flavor that makes you happy. In Ehime prefecture, where the temperature is lower than that of the Mediterranean, which is close to the origin, sweeter and more mellow blood oranges are cultivated by aging them for a long time on the tree to meet the demands of consumers. Quotations of Mahatma Gandhi, father of India's independence: You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty. This word remains in my heart and body. Since we have now, we look back on the past and have a near future. Maana mandarin oranges with gears meshed with each other aiming for a brand production area showed significant growth in the 1945s after World War II, and seemed to have started to rotate steadily. In 1912, Ichitaro MURATA and others who established the Maajiro Citrus Association and started joint shipping to the Osaka market, then in 1918, developed the organization into a Maana association that united all villages and shipped it. Enlarge. However, most of the shipping destinations are in the Hanshin area, and although there was hope from the Tokyo market, transportation from Maana to Tokyo would take a week at the earliest because it was only trains and ships. , It seems that it was a response to produce a lot of rotten fruits. A memorable year for Maana Citrus, which celebrated its 130th anniversary this year. As long as Japan does not perish, it will be a series of efforts and hardships, but I want you to perpetuate a wonderful cultural heritage.



This orange variety is especially valuable. Also known as Sicilian blood orange (citrus sinensis), it also retains a typical geographical designation, as it is specifically grown in some areas of the island. The trees in the JA Ehime southern jurisdiction are strong. Its bearings are upright with a symmetrical crown. Elliptical leaves with dense tips. Dogwood seems to be very productive. The fruits ripen in January-February. The flesh is orange, highly veined, very juicy, and has few seeds.

Nuclear selection obtained in Acireale's CRA-ACM in 1949. Plants are vigorous, erect habits with regular, compact crowns. Oval leaves with pointed apex big flower. The plant seems to have a high resistance to wind. Fruiting is constant and productive. Fruit, reddish orange peel. The globule has a reddish flesh color and is seedless. A variety of sweet orange, native to the ancient citrus region of southwestern Etna.  Dogwood differs from common dogwood only in its fruit characteristics, and it is not possible to distinguish between the two cultivars of trees. The fruit is elongated (basically egg-shaped because it has a slight collar) compared to common dogwoods, and is slightly larger. The bark is medium-grained and thick, orange with a slight red tinge, and appears to be less noticeable than common dogwood. Sanguinello moscato oranges are generally more commercially successful due to their uniformity and superior aesthetic characteristics.
Citrus sinensis not only bears a particularly distinctive visual appeal with its captivating red fruit, but its dark red flesh also represents an exception. Valuable ingredients such as anthocyanin contained in the flavonoid group (a type of water-soluble flavonoid that is a natural red or blue-purple pigment and is often found in blue fruits such as bilberries and blueberries) are Red Exotic's secret weapon. It greatly enhances our health and vitality. The antioxidant content of these natural dyes appears to be about the same as the well-known 'Sanguinello Moscato' blood orange from cultivated blueberries. Like navel and blonde oranges, this blood orange is native to Asia, including India, China, and Southeast Asian countries. The botanical name 'sinensis' had already suggested that this kind of orange was a 'Chinese apple'. The first German name for the orange was formed accordingly, Blood oranges, such as "Sanguinello Moscato", are special in that in addition to the carotenoids responsible for the orange-yellow color of regular oranges, they also produce red anthocyanins. Have the ability. Recent studies have shown that the gene responsible for the red color is also present in blond orange, but it is neither read nor activated there. On the other hand, in blood oranges, this gene is activated under stress, in which case the nighttime temperatures are cooler, producing red anthocyanin pigments. It seems that it is also the reason why it is only cultivated. In Sicily, the temperature at night in late autumn/winter is low, and color development is possible in the first place. In the first few weeks of the new year, the coveted blood oranges are harvested and ready to hit the market. Visually appealing and extremely healthy. These climatic factors appear to be very important for red training. We have heard that blood orange cultivation in other climatically better parts of the world has repeatedly failed. The appearance of the Sanguinello Moscato blood orange tree is characterized by somewhat weak growth. In terms of appearance, blood orange 'Sanguinero Moscato' has bright, winged leaves that are elongated and, like most orange trees, the whole tree is evergreen. Note that even with intensive and meticulous plant care, leaves can always fall to the ground.  Citrus leaves have an average lifespan of 2-3 years. After this period, the plants independently form new leaves. Thus, it seems normal for seedlings to drop some of their leaves from time to time, and sometimes even several leaves at the same time level should not be exceeded. How does a prolonged drought in a planter, or even more frequent waterlogging, act? In addition, Blood Orange 'Sanguinero Moscato' forms a dense and compact crown, and the branches appear to have few, if any, thorns.

The Shiina clan separated from the Kammu Taira clan and the Chiba clan. In other words, it started when Tanetomo, the second son of Tanemitsu Shiina, lived in Node Village, Sosa County and called himself a fielder. When he died at the age of 75 in 1245, his sixth son and eldest son, Rokuro Michitane, succeeded him as lord of Node Castle, and his descendants are said to have continued as lords of the castle. In 1590, when the castle in Sosa County fell during the Battle of Odawara, it fell into ruin, abandoning the samurai and becoming a native. On the other hand, Taneyoshi's adopted son, Taneyoshi, ruled Ideno Township in Sosa County and called himself the Ideno clan. His son, Yoshinari, had distinguished himself in the 'Jokyu War' and was given Matsukura Township in Etchu Province, and his descendants moved to Etchu Province. During the Warring States period, the Shiina clan, which had the power to divide Etchu into two with the Jimbo clan, is said to be the flow. Yoshitame relied on the Node clan, and in 1469-86 Yoshitane, Kiyotane, and Moritane, who were members of the Shimousa Node clan, were 'expelled from Kamakura and languished in poverty'. He lived in Shimotsuma and became a vassal of the Tagaya clan. In December 1454, Kamakura public affairs Shigeuji Ashikaga (1438-1497) murdered Kanto Kanrei (shogunal deputy) Noritada Uesugi (1433-1455), who was in conflict with him, and was ordered to hunt down and kill him by the shogunate in Kyoto. Shogun Yoshimasa ASHIKAGA ordered Noritada IMAGAWA, the military governor of Suruga Province, to attack Kamakura, and Kamakura public affairs Shigeuji fled to Koga in Shimousa Province. Shogun Yoshimasa tried to put his brother Masatomo in public affairs on his behalf. However, due to the deteriorating situation in the Kanto region, he was unable to set foot in Hakone, and in the end set up a hall in Horikoshi, Izu, and called it 'Horikoshi public affairs.' Yoshitane, Kiyotane, and Moritane, who were vassals of Shigeuji Ashikaga during the 'Kyotoku War', are thought to have followed Shigeuji toward Koga. However, he was unable to head to Koga in the midst of the turmoil, so he took a detour to live with Shimotsuma's Tagaya clan and became a vassal.

In Horikawa, Sosa City, where the producers are engaged in agriculture, there are traces of earthen walls and moats on the grounds of the residence that was used from the Kamakura period to the Sengoku period as Horikawa Palace. The details of the construction of the castle are unknown, but it is said that it was the residence of the Horikawa clan, a branch of the Chiba clan. Locals say that during the Sengoku period, the Horikawa residence was attacked by the Node clan, a branch of the Shiina clan of the Chiba clan, who ruled the Note area, and the Horikawa clan and his vassals were killed in the battle. In addition, during the excavation of Horikawa Place, serial wooden clogs from the Kamakura period, in which the base and teeth are made from a single piece of wood, have been unearthed. Horikawanishi Agricultural Cooperative: Horikawa miso is a handmade bean paste produced jointly by local farmers. Noodles are made from rice Koshihikari rice produced by the association. Domestic whole soybeans are prepared with salt content (13%). Natural miso that has been aged for one year. No additives are used. Production is limited to 180,000 tons per year. The origin of miso is said to be "shoh / hishio'', a salted soybean food in ancient China. It is said that the product that was in the middle of maturing before becoming soy sauce was so delicious that it became an independent food called miso. From this, it is presumed that it was named 'Misho(Taiho Ritsuryo (701)),' which was not yet made into soy sauce, and changed to miso. The word miso appears in literature for the first time in the Heian period. At that time, it was not used as a seasoning for cooking as it is today, but it seems that people ate it as it was by dipping it in food or licking it. In addition, it seems that it was a valuable item that was not included in the mouth of the common people, such as being used as a salary or a gift for high-ranking people. In the Kamakura period (1185-1333), monks who came to Japan from China began to use mortars, and miso grains were easily soluble in water when mashed. It is said that the emergence of miso soup established the basis of the meal of the Kamakura samurai, "one soup and one dish (staple food, soup, side dishes, pickles)''.  Originally, it was regarded as a diet that emphasized frugality, but in modern times, it is treated as the basis of a balanced diet. Sakai District: History of Nosaka Town (published February 1, 1985) Establishment of Sakae Village (Sakai Village is the current Sakai District.) Sakai Village was established by merging the three villages of Kayada, Kawabe, and Horikawa. It was October 17, 1888, when representatives of the villages concerned and the head of the household reported that there was no problem with the proposal. The related villages are under the same jurisdiction of the head office and school district, and each village has the same human feelings, customs, and living conditions as they live on agriculture and fishery. It seems that it was in a suitable state for a merger, such as having a joint relationship. The name of the new village was named Sakai Village to express the hope of the villagers for the prosperity of the new village. In Chiba Prefecture, there is the Federation of Chiba Prefecture Land Improvement Organizations (Midori Net Chiba). The Kariate River is a grade 2 Kuriyama river system in Chiba Prefecture. The river flows through the Kujukuri Plain in the middle part of Chiba Prefecture and flows into the Pacific Ocean. 39 kilometers long. It originates from the hills in the southern part of Katori City, collects water from the Shimousa plateau, and flows into the Pacific Ocean at Yokoshibahikari Town, Sanbu County. In terms of basin area, it is one of the largest rivers in the prefecture. It is also used as a passage for Ryoso irrigation water, which flows the water from the Tonegawa River taken in Katori City to the paddy fields in the Kujukuri Plain. There is an excavated fishing port at the mouth of the river, and in recent years, it is known that salmon released by the Prefectural Fisheries Research Institute have returned. Overview of Kuriyama River Fishing Port: Class 1 Fishing Port, Yokoshibahikari Town, Sanmu District, Chiba Prefecture, Notification No. 358 of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry of April 15, 1960, Chiba Prefecture Coastal Conservation Area Designation, March 27, 1992 Chiba Prefecture Notification No. 273. This fishing port is located at the mouth of the Kuriyama River, a second-class river that flows through Yokoshibahikari Town, Sanbu County, in the center of Kujukuri Beach. The nearby coastal area is the only beach in town, and is very busy during the summer season. There is a protected forest behind the coast, and there are marine recreation facilities such as a pool in the surrounding area, which seems to be a tourist base in summer. A farmer's organization created by the Land Improvement Law enacted in 1949. Maintenance and management of various land improvement facilities such as farm ponds and waterways. However, in recent years, the number of farmers has decreased and the population has aged, making it difficult to manage them. Also, housing complexes have been built in farming villages, and many different people have come to live there. Those who are not farmers may not be familiar with this organization, but nearby rice fields, waterways, and reservoirs are facilities managed by land improvement districts. Agricultural facilities also have the effect of protecting the natural environment and beautiful rural scenery. In addition, it can be said that the land improvement districts that manage these areas play an important role in your area. Waniguchi Iriyamazaki Walk: "Temple gong'' (a tool hung in front of Buddhist temples and temples and played with ropes) dedicated to the Myohozan Konreji Temple of the Nichiren sect after more than 70 years. Hollow. There is a horizontally long mouth at the bottom. It is a type of Buddhist altar fittings made by casting iron into a flat circle. A square in the center, a hook on the left and right sides of the top, and a mouth that opens in a straight line at the bottom. This wide mouth is wide open. (Origin of the name) Iriyamazaki Ward (Yoshida District) was divided into Furusaki Village. There is a Toso Wide Area Farm Road nearby, which connects Yoshida, Sosa City, Chiba Prefecture and Kiyotaki, Asahi City, Chiba Prefecture, and is about 19 km long. There was a car accident at the end of last month, so please drive safely. The history of green onion cultivation in the jurisdiction is long, beginning in the 1955s in the Hikarimachi district (now Yokoshibahikari Town). Currently, the cultivation area has expanded to Sosa City and Asahi City, and the long green onions produced in the jurisdiction are branded as high-quality "Hikari Green Onion". Cultivation is in autumn / winter, spring, May(satsuki), and summer, and 700,000 cases are shipped annually. In 1996, a central collection and shipping facility equipped with a pre-cooling storage facility started operation, which seems to have made it possible to further improve quality and ship products in accordance with customer requests. In recent years, we are facing various issues such as an increase in cheap imported long onions, the occurrence of difficult-to-control pests, and the aging of producers. People are working together to maintain and improve the brand production area. Each producer produces, adjusts and selects based on cultivation standards and shipping standards, and brings them to the shipping site. At the shipping site, a full-time inspector (a system of five people) conducts an on-board sampling inspection of the shipped products, and it seems that only the shipped products that pass the inspection can be unloaded onto a special pallet. After being transferred to the pallet, the green onions are cooled in the same facility's "vacuum precooling device" and then stored in the refrigerator right next door. Since the shipping area is centralized, it is possible to check with the unified eyes of the full-time inspectors and correct individual disparities. The Sosa Horticulture Club still has eight inspectors in charge of inspections, who keep track of the daily inspection status, exchange information with the full-time inspectors, provide inspection guidance, and conduct witness inspections themselves throughout the season. Eight officers in charge of guidance conduct comparison tests and review meetings every year to select varieties suitable for this area. In the pesticide residue inspection for each cropping type, all producers are encouraged to put pink flags on the fields during harvesting, and measures are taken to avoid pesticide drift. Mandatory record keeping. It seems that those who do not submit the record of cultivation history cannot ship. In March 2022, the Kanto Regional Development Bureau of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism announced the outline of the budget for 2022. In this, it seems that the new commercialization of "National Highway No. 126 Sanmu Toso Road Third Phase" will be included. National Highway No. 126 "Sanmu Toso Road" constitutes the Choshi Renraku Road, which is a regional high standard road, and connects Sanmu City and Asahi City in Chiba Prefecture. The first section is 6.1 km from Matsuo Yokoshiba IC (Sanmu City) on the Ken-O Expressway to Yokoshiba Hikari IC (Yokoshibahikari Town). It is open as a road. The second section is a 5 km extension from Yokoshiba Hikari IC to Yokaichiba IC (tentative name: Sosa City), and construction is underway for opening in 2023. And this time, the new business will start in the third phase section, which will connect a 13 km extension from the Yokaichiba IC (tentative name) to the vicinity of the roadside station "Kirari Asahi" (Asahi City). The budget for 2022 is 50 million yen, and the survey design is scheduled to be implemented. By improving the second and third stages of the Sanbu Toso Road, it will be possible to improve the efficiency of logistics such as "agricultural and marine products", improve accessibility to emergency medical facilities, and reduce congestion on National Road 126 (current road). It seems to be expected. Regarding the development of the Choshi connecting road further east of the third section, the utilization of National Highway No. 126 "Iioka Bypass" (extension of about 6 km, Asahi City), which was opened in 1993, and straddling Asahi City and Choshi City. It seems that the section is planned to be widened. The 13 km section from "Sosa City" to Asahi City will be newly commercialized, and a plan to further extend the Choshi Renraku Road will start. Image character “Apii-chan” of the special product “Red Bell Pepper” in Sosa City, Chiba Prefecture is the only production area of “Red Bell Pepper” in the prefecture, and its deliciousness and quality are highly evaluated in the market. The design was considered by a local high school student, and the nickname was decided by open call for participants. She is a girl born in 2006 to promote red bell peppers, which is the only production area in the prefecture. She's always smiling, but she sometimes mistakes her red head for an apple and makes her sick. Ripe green peppers are sweeter than green peppers and rich in vitamins A and E. Vitamin A protects the eyes and skin about 7 times. Vitamin C tends to be about 1.8 times less likely to catch a cold, and Vitamin E is about 5.6 times more bloody. Carotenoids prevent aging about 15 times. If you grow green peppers slowly and slowly without harvesting them, they will transform from green to blackish red and then “bright red”. It takes 25 to 30 days for ordinary green peppers to be harvested after the flowers bloom, while red peppers are more than twice as long. It takes more than a month to spend more time than ordinary bell peppers. Also, it's very cold and it doesn't grow if the temperature is below 17 ℃. Approximately 92 tons are produced annually in 1.2 hectares of the Nosaka area, and it is said that “rice flour apii bread”, which is eaten with croquettes sandwiched between rice flour bread kneaded with red peppers for school lunch, is a popular menu. Nosaka is a town on the sea in the eastern part of Chiba prefecture. Adjacent to Yokaichiba City, Hikari Town, Sosa District. A long time ago, it sometimes appeared on TV as a karaoke town.

Fielders, Imaizumi, Uchiurazuka, Kawabe, Horikawa, Kayada. Each has a beach. There are Oka village and Hama village, which form a typical barn village. Due to regression, people began to live in the barn of the fishing gear storage and became a village. Both the Oka and Hama villages are almost parallel to the coastline, and it seems that the Oka village was established along the lagoon formed by regression. Perhaps because of this, the road connecting the Oka villages draws an arc, just like the current coastline. There was a village called “mena” in the middle of the Oka and Hama villages. In other regions, it is sometimes written as Mena, but there seems to be a theory that they are all in similar places and mean wetlands. Node Village: Mr. Kanmu Taira Mr. Chiba, Mr. Node, a clan of Mr. Shiina who was separated from Mr. Chiba, lived in the fielder Mijo. In March of the 4th year of Astronomy (1535), a “fielder battle” took place, and the castle fell after being attacked by Mr. Oshida, the owner of the Yokaichi Market. Originally, the fielder was called Noda, Nuda but he became a fielder, and when Noda Village and Imaizumi Village merged, Noda revived and became Noda Village. It is the largest bell pepper producing area in Chiba prefecture and is shipped throughout the year. More ripe and nutritious red peppers are produced only in Sosa City in the prefecture.Yokoshibahikari Town is located in the northeastern part of Chiba Prefecture, and was born in 2006 through the merger of Hikari Town in Sosa County and Yokoshiba Town in Sanbu County, and is the most populous town in Chiba Prefecture. The Kuriyama River, which flows through the center, is a mecca for fishing. The city releases juvenile salmon every year, and many salmon return to the river. Mother-river homing" Although the mechanism has not yet been determined, the olfactory imprinting theory is the theory that the mother-river homing returns to the mother river based on the memory of the odor peculiar to the mother river. Based on experiments and observations such as salmon being unable to return to their mother rivers, it seems to be supported by many researchers. “Oamishirasato City” : The city is located almost in the center of the Kujukuri Plain. It has a climate with abundant nature, with lush hills in the west, vast countryside in the center, and the coast of “Hakusasaisho(White sand, Pinus thunbergii Parl: One of the top 100 beautiful stretches of sandy beaches dotted with pine trees.)” in the east.

Agatsuma District, Gunma Prefecture is a town of Scenic Beauty by beautiful mountains and abundant hot springs. In a natural environment different from Oamishirasato City, which faces the Pacific Ocean and has the sea. On October 10, 2006, the "Agreement on Mutual Support in the time of disaster" was also signed. Let's continue to investigate history. Plateaus and hills that connect to the Toke district of Chiba City spread to the west, and sand dunes that have been deposited since the early Jomon period spread to the east. Research has been carried out since the 1945's, and among them, Kutsukake shell mound, Kamikaizuka, and Minamiiizuka ruins have been known for a long time. The Shimosa Plateau, which has an altitude of 80 to 90 m, extends over the western plateau. Prior to the construction of residential areas and golf courses, the oamiyamadadai archaeological site, sunada archaeological site, mizuhooketsu archaeological site, Kanayago archaeological site, etc. Many People are said to have started living in the Paleolithic era, 20,000 to 30,000 years ago. It is said that the earth at that time was a cold period called the ice age, the sea level was more than 100 m lower than the present, and the continent and the Japanese archipelago were connected by land.Tomita Village: Fujufuse (Not Receive and Not Give) School of the Nichiren Sect is a sect whose founder was Nichiren and the school founder was Nichio.

Since then, it has become a popular distribution center for logistics and has developed as a core city in the Kujukuri area. The area is 89.12 km2 and the altitude is 8.1 m. The excavation survey of the “Maruyama site” was around 1957. This is because the landowner Eiichi Ichihara at that time discovered a large amount of earthenware and burnt soil while cultivating the fields. The excavation survey was conducted in early January 1960 under the guidance of Mr. Akira Kawato, who was a teacher at Togane High School at that time. The remains are confirmed on the upper surface of the Kanto loam layer, which is dug down about 20 cm to 30 cm from the ground surface (field at that time). Many relics were excavated in the process of removing the soil accumulated on the remains, and it was found that the remains were four dwellings. After that, along with the large-scale development in the 1950s, the area around this site was excavated as the Toganedai site group. 155 pit dwellings were detected at the Ebigaya site, 142 at the Toganekuroda site, 265 at the Shikidai site, and 109 at the Koyuidai site. In the re-survey of the Maruyama site conducted at this time, about 105 pit dwellings were confirmed. It was a valuable survey to learn about the lives of people from the Kofun period to the Nara and Heian periods. Besides, Hachigaya site, etc. “Kujukuri Town, Sambu District”, A monument of "the birthplace of Sweet Potato cultivation in the Kanto region" is erected here. The eighth shogun, Yoshimune Tokugawa, ordered Konyo Aoki to grow sweet potatoes and made a prototype at the current Kujukuri Town Fudodo. As a result, sweet potato cultivation has become widespread in the Kanto region and remote islands since the Kyoho famine. As a result, it is commented that, since the Great Famine of Kyoho, the cultivation of sweet potato spread in Kanto region and solitary islands, and thus a lot of people's lives were saved in the Tenmei Famine :(The 8th general of the Edo bakufu (Japanese feudal government headed by a shogun) Yoshimune TOKUGAWA had already ordered Konyo to cultivate the known sweet potato as an emergency crop at the famine in West Japan, and make trial pieces in the Koishikawa Medicine Garden (Koishikawa Botanical Gardens), Makuwari Village in Chiba District of Shimousa Province (present Makuhari, Hanamigawa Ward, Chiba City, Chiba Prefecture), and Fudodo Village in Yamabe County of Kazusa Province (present Kujukuri Town, Sanbu District, Chiba Prefecture).

Hydroponic mitsuba(Cryptotaenia canadensis (L.) DC.subsp. japonica (Hassk.) Hand.-Mazz. (1933) cultivation, and in recent years, flower cultivation such as Cyclamen persicum has been carried out to improve management efficiency. Both pig farming and dairy farming are actively carried out. Speaking of representative agricultural products, welsh onions(Allium fistulosum L. var. bouddhae Prokh.). From around 1968, the cultivation of autumn and winter welsh onions became popular as a back crop of wheat, and in 1972, it was designated as a national production area. Plateau fields in the Houme Area and Kotabe Area were develoed from the 40's to the 1950's. After that, the cultivation method was improved and the brand continued to shine. Let's explain the product. The top of the representative crops is green onion. From around 1968, autumn and winter green onion cultivation became popular as a back crop of wheat. In 1972, it was designated as a national production area. The fields will be improved from about 40 to 50 years, which will support the cultivation of green onions.

On October 10, 2006, the "Agreement on Mutual Support in the time of disaster" was also signed. Let's continue to investigate history. Plateaus and hills that connect to the Toke district of Chiba City spread to the west, and sand dunes that have been deposited since the early Jomon period spread to the east. Research has been carried out since the 1945's, and among them, Kutsukake shell mound, Kamikaizuka, and Minamiiizuka ruins have been known for a long time. The Shimosa Plateau, which has an altitude of 80 to 90 m, extends over the western plateau. Prior to the construction of residential areas and golf courses, the oamiyamadadai archaeological site, sunada archaeological site, mizuhooketsu archaeological site, Kanayago archaeological site, etc. Many People are said to have started living in the Paleolithic era, 20,000 to 30,000 years ago. It is said that the earth at that time was a cold period called the ice age, the sea level was more than 100 m lower than the present, and the continent and the Japanese archipelago were connected by land.Tomita Village: Fujufuse (Not Receive and Not Give) School of the Nichiren Sect is a sect whose founder was Nichiren and the school founder was Nichio. As a special product, the strawberry "shinku-no-misuzu" born in Oamishirasato is known. Developed by a strawberry breeder living in the city, it was registered as a variety in 2015. Even the flesh is dyed deep red and has a high sugar acid ratio. The catch phrase is "All, love." The color, aroma, taste, and sweetness are all rich. Wordplay that puts that "dark" into “love”. “Togane City”, With a population of about 60,000 and a warm climate. It is located in the central part of the prefecture, about 50 km from central Tokyo. In the plains, good countryside extends toward the Pacific Ocean, and the hills are covered with Sanbu cedar forest(Chiba Prefecture A variety of cutting sugi that has been cultivated in the Sanbu area in the northeast for over 250 years(A variety selected from particularly excellent ones and cultivated by cuttings. Cryptomeria japonica). In the Edo period, the "Onari Highway" was built for falconry of Ieyasu Tokugawa. A post town and a wholesale district where neighboring agricultural products gather are formed. Since then, it has become a popular distribution center for logistics and has developed as a core city in the Kujukuri area. The area is 89.12 km2 and the altitude is 8.1 m. The excavation survey of the “Maruyama site” was around 1957. This is because the landowner Eiichi Ichihara at that time discovered a large amount of earthenware and burnt soil while cultivating the fields. The excavation survey was conducted in early January 1960 under the guidance of Mr. Akira Kawato, who was a teacher at Togane High School at that time. The remains are confirmed on the upper surface of the Kanto loam layer, which is dug down about 20 cm to 30 cm from the ground surface (field at that time). Many relics were excavated in the process of removing the soil accumulated on the remains, and it was found that the remains were four dwellings. After that, along with the large-scale development in the 1950s, the area around this site was excavated as the Toganedai site group. 155 pit dwellings were detected at the Ebigaya site, 142 at the Toganekuroda site, 265 at the Shikidai site, and 109 at the Koyuidai site. In the re-survey of the Maruyama site conducted at this time, about 105 pit dwellings were confirmed. It was a valuable survey to learn about the lives of people from the Kofun period to the Nara and Heian periods. Besides, Hachigaya site, etc. “Kujukuri Town, Sambu District”, A monument of "the birthplace of Sweet Potato cultivation in the Kanto region" is erected here. The eighth shogun, Yoshimune Tokugawa, ordered Mr. Konyo Aoki to grow sweet potatoes and made a prototype at the current Kujukuri Town Fudodo. As a result, sweet potato cultivation has become widespread in the Kanto region and remote islands since the Kyoho famine. As a result, it is commented that, since the Great Famine of Kyoho, the cultivation of sweet potato spread in Kanto region and solitary islands, and thus a lot of people's lives were saved in the Tenmei Famine :(The 8th general of the Edo bakufu (Japanese feudal government headed by a shogun) Yoshimune TOKUGAWA had already ordered Konyo to cultivate the known sweet potato as an emergency crop at the famine in West Japan, and make trial pieces in the Koishikawa Medicine Garden (Koishikawa Botanical Gardens), Makuwari Village in Chiba District of Shimousa Province (present Makuhari, Hanamigawa Ward, Chiba City, Chiba Prefecture), and Fudodo Village in Yamabe County of Kazusa Province (present Kujukuri Town, Sanbu District, Chiba Prefecture). Kujukurihama was chosen as the marathon site because Ino Tadataka, a geographical surveyor in the Edo period, was born in Kujukuri Town. Kujukuri beach: Located almost in the center, "katakai" has prospered with sardine fishing since the Edo period, and is a town where "sardine culture" lives. “Sanmu City”, Located in the eastern part of Chiba prefecture. It faces the Pacific Ocean for about 8 km in the center of Kujukuri beach, one of Japan's leading sand coasts, and has a total area of 146.77 km2. It is roughly divided into the Kujukuri coastal area, the vast alluvial plain as a hinterland, and the hilly area consisting of low plateaus at an altitude of 40 to 50 m. These are strips that are almost parallel to the coastline, and for some reason they are nostalgic scenery. The city is active not only in rice cultivation but also in vegetable and fruit production. In areas rich in nature, with forest products such as Sambu Cedar, seafood from Kujukuri Beach. As a tourist resort, you can enjoy sports such as swimming, surfing, and tennis, and it has local resources that are attractive to young people. Due to the good location, the concentration of industrial facilities is increasing, and because of the good nature environment, many people visit and move to this area. The area was recognized as a blank area in the early Kofun period, but the Shimato Sakai No. 1 burial mound (4 mirrors) was discovered in the latter half of the early Kofun period (late 4th century). The case is Kitano No. 5 Mound, the second case designated on September 13, 2011. In the category of bronze ware, there were bronze swords, bronze pikes, bronze dagger-axes, bronze bells, bronze mirrors, and so on. Although it was made in various periods, as a historical and archaeological term, it often refers to the bronze mirror excavated from the remains in China, Korea and Japan. In 2006, Sambu District Naruto Town, Sambu Town, Matsuo Town, and Hasunuma Village merged. Naruto and Togane carnivorous plant communities are nationally designated natural monuments. The birthplace of the poet Ito sachio, known for his novel "The Tomb of Wild Chrysanthemum," is a historic site designated by the prefecture. “Shibayama Town”, Located almost in the center of the Hokuso plateau in the northeastern part of the prefecture. At the northernmost point of Sambu District, in the 60 km area of the capital. Adjacent to Tako Town in the east, Yokoshibahikari Town and Sammu City in the south, Tomisato City in the southwest, Narita City in the north, and Narita Airport. 8.4 km east-west, 10.5 km north-south, 43.24 km2 in area, generally flat. The Takaya River flows to the east and the Kido River flows to the west, and this basin becomes a rice-growing area, and upland fields are flourishing in the hills in the northwest. Many wild Cerasus jamasakura (Sieb. ex Koidz.) H.Ohba (1992) bloom in the hills of the town, and are most familiar to the townspeople. With its ancient history, culture, and beautiful nature, it is eager to become the courtyard of the international airport city. Various house-shaped haniwa of the mid Kofun period (tumulus period) were excavated from Tonobeta number 1 mound in Shibayama Town, Sanbu County, Chiba Prefecture and Nagase Takahama site in Umanoyama burial mounds located in Hawai Town, Tohaku County, Tottori Prefecture. Kannokyo Temple: The three-storied pagoda in the precincts is designated as a tangible cultural property of Chiba Prefecture. Koike Otsuka Tomb, Takada No. 2 Mound,Yamada / Houma tumulus group. Arai Festival (Radish Festival): It is a festival held on December 14th every year, and it is said that fire should not be used except at the house on duty. At the house on duty, Shishi-Mai(Lion dance)will hold a festival of disease-free breathing, fire theft, and a good harvest. At Omiya Shrine, a turret built in front of the shrine is set on fire. The practice of throwing radishes at the child and preventing the priest from entering the shrine from the front is a sight to see. “Yokoshibahikari Town” : Located in the northeastern part of the prefecture. Kujukuri Beach, with its white sands in the south, and gentle hills in the north. The average annual temperature is 15 degrees Celsius, with cool summers and warm winters, with a pleasant climate. On March 27, 2006, sambu district yokoshiba town and Sousa District hikari town merged. The scenery of Kujukuri Beach, where the Pacific Ocean spreads magnificently, and the Kuriyama River, which flows through the central part of Yokoshibahikari Town, shines. It is a long and narrow terrain from north to south, and as it progresses from the flat coast to the plateau, it becomes slightly inland and the temperature difference. In general, it is blessed with natural conditions suitable for agriculture, which is cool in summer and warm in winter. Complex management that combines open-field vegetables and facility horticulture is flourishing centering on paddy agriculture. Paddy rice is the main crop, and sweet corn and leek are well known as open-field vegetables, such as tomatoes, squashes, and broccoli. There are also strawberry growers, and many are harvested from December to May and are popular. Working on high-profit crops, cherry tomato, melon in the green house. Hydroponic mitsuba(Cryptotaenia canadensis (L.) DC.subsp. japonica (Hassk.) Hand.-Mazz. (1933) cultivation, and in recent years, flower cultivation such as Cyclamen persicum has been carried out to improve management efficiency. Both pig farming and dairy farming are actively carried out. Speaking of representative agricultural products, welsh onions(Allium fistulosum L. var. bouddhae Prokh). From around 1968, the cultivation of autumn and winter welsh onions became popular as a back crop of wheat, and in 1972, it was designated as a national production area. Plateau fields in the Houme Area and Kotabe Area were develoed from the 40's to the 1950's. After that, the cultivation method was improved and the brand continued to shine. Let's explain the product. The top of the representative crops is green onion. From around 1968, autumn and winter green onion cultivation became popular as a back crop of wheat. In 1972, it was designated as a national production area. The fields will be improved from about 40 to 50 years, which will support the cultivation of green onions. Currently, both spring onions and autumn / winter green onions : The “Hikari green onion” brand has received high praise in the market. In addition, he won the 26th Japan Agricultural Award before 2000. Farmers and groups who have been enthusiastic about managing agriculture and have made outstanding achievements. The Central Union of Agricultural Co-operatives, Japan Agricultural Cooperatives prefectural FSBA and NHK Organization. “See(Child)green onion”, Raised under the sun and seawater spraying of kujukuri, it is thick and sweet enough. 30 strict unified rules - “Kujukuri Sea Child Green Onions” : Uses organic fertilizer specified by JA - Reduced pesticide cultivation : Aim for the number of times Pesticides to be used to be less than half of the standard number of times used by the prefecture. Sambu agriculture promotion center (Formerly sambu agriculture promotion center) : After repeated examinations and tests, it was cultivated in 2006 with seawater and commercialized.


It seems that "Ryusho Green Onion" from Yokohama Ueki Co., Ltd. (Minami Ward, Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture) has been selected as the winter chicken that is on sale. This excellent agricultural product (even in harsh summer weather, it seems that it is difficult to lose stock. It grows stably even in conditions that are prone to root pain, such as various diseases, overhumidity, and overdrying, and has excellent yield and excellent product rate. It has 1-2 more leaves than existing varieties, so it is a labor-saving variety that makes it easier to adjust the harvest.) is fine, smooth, and shiny. The taste is sweet and delicious, and the texture that does not make you feel fibrous is wonderful. Uses the strongest cultivar. The aigara system is the winter long onion, which seems to be the softest and sweetest system. However, it has a drawback that it is difficult to make, and it seems to be a line that has disappeared in recent years. The reason I chose it is that whether it is eaten raw or cooked, the texture is not streaky, it is crisp and has a strong sweetness. It has just the right amount of scallion fragrance, is not too spicy, and is a variety that can be enjoyed by everyone, even children. The only drawback seems to be the high seed cost. Fertilizer It seems that the fertilizer is slowly absorbed so that the long onions do not get tired. For that reason, it seems that they have jointly developed with a fertilizer manufacturer that matches the soil quality of the production area to create and apply the original fertilizer of this production area. The name of the fertilizer is "Hikari-negi-bijin'' and "Super-hikari-negi-bijin'' after "Hikari long onion''. Too much or too little fertilizer is likely to cause disease, and it seems to be characterized by a loss of tightness. The feature of this fertilizer is that it contains organic matter, and it seems to work slowly in fertilizer. For this reason, the leaves are colorful and shiny, and the white part is bright, so it seems that excellent agricultural products can be produced. In addition, it seems that the natural mineral soil improver "Sogo Mineral Hoso(Is manufactured by Japan Institute of Mineral Chemicals. Mineral soil improvement material commercialized by (a member of the National Soil Improvement Material Council). The ore used as the raw material seems to be an ore that is an aggregate of fault clay whose mother rock is graphite schist, etc. quarried from the northeastern part of Yamanashi Prefecture, including the Chichibu Paleozoic Kobutsu Line, the oldest stratum in Japan. After beneficiation and drying, the ore is coarsely crushed with a jaw crusher, intermediately crushed with a two-stage roll crusher if necessary, and finely pulverized with a special fret mill. It seems to be a granulated product made by adding molasses to this and granulating it by the plate method. It appears to degrade more readily with soil water. The rock-forming mineral composition is mainly composed of quartz, feldspar, and plagioclase, with calcite, sericite, pyrite, titanite, magnetite, sulfite, graphite, chlorite, and illite and chlorite as clay minerals (X-ray diffraction). seems to be mostly accepted.)" is applied. This "Sogo-matsu Mineral Hoso" seems to be a natural fertilizer containing a large amount of Tennobu Special Minerals (patented product) from the autobiographical vein of Japan's longest-lived village (Uenohara City, Yamanashi Prefecture (former Kita-tsuru District)). Inspection system In this production area, each producer adjusts and sorts based on the shipping standards and brings them to the shipping area. Regarding long onions brought in from producers, at the stage of bringing them to the shipping area, a full-time inspector or a staff member dedicated to the shipping area conducts an on-vehicle sampling inspection so that only producers who have passed the inspection can unload the goods into the shipping area. In addition, since the shipping area is centralized, it is possible to inspect with the eyes of full-time inspectors, and it seems that they are trying to correct the disparity between individuals. In addition, there is an officer in charge of inspection representing the producer, who regularly holds meetings at the shipping site to confirm the current inspection status, exchange information with the full-time inspectors, and provide inspection guidance to the full-time inspectors. It seems that they are keeping in mind the inspection corresponding to the current situation. I have heard that all producers are obliged to record their cultivation history, and shipments from those who have not submitted their cultivation history will not be accepted. In addition, in this production area, it seems that they are working on disease and pest control by strictly observing the number of times of use and the number of days before harvesting according to the chemical (pesticide) and method of use stipulated by the Chiba Prefecture Control Standards. In addition, they use pheromone agents to predict the occurrence of pests throughout the area, and they are working on reducing pesticides through timely pest control in conjunction with environmental conservation. Soil preparation In the production of vegetables, we believe that "soil preparation" is the first priority, and it seems that this production area is putting the most effort into soil preparation. It seems that they carry out soil diagnosis and try to design fertilization according to the conditions of each field. Roots seem to have the highest oxygen demand among vegetables. Therefore, it grows to the soft, oxygen-rich upper part of the earthen mound. Therefore, it seems that they are making soft soil with an aggregated structure. By caring for the roots, it seems that under any environmental conditions, the surface of the crop is smooth, fresh, and well-packed. It seems that they are trying to improve the humus component in the soil by planting and plowing green manure crops for the purpose of avoiding continuous crop failure and improving soil fertility.



JA Chiba Midori's brand "Hikari Green Onion" is a representative agricultural product of Yokoshibahikari Town. It is also characterized by its sweetness, refreshing aroma and freshness. Going back in history, it seems that it started around 1955 as a side crop of wheat in the former Hikari Town area. In 1972, it became a nationally designated production area, and the cultivation area expanded as the fields were improved. In 2000, he won the Grand Prize of the 26th Japan Agricultural Prize in recognition of his ambitious efforts, such as repeated improvements to cultivation methods. In addition to the conventional fall and winter long onions and spring long onions, we also focus on sweet and soft summer “premium long onions”. Pre-cooling is done at the collection point, and it seems that they are able to ship all year round while maintaining freshness.



The maintenance of plateau fields in the "Homai and Kotabe" districts in the 1965s and 1975s also seems to have boosted the cultivation of long onions. Since then, the cultivation method has been repeatedly improved, and now both spring and autumn spring green onions are designated as a production area of the country, and are highly evaluated in the market under the brand name of "Hikari Green Onion", and are highly trusted by consumers. In addition, we are also focusing on cultivating summer green onions, and we are achieving year-round shipments.
