Tokyo Yakult Swallows, a Japanese professional baseball team, announced on April 15, 2022 that it will proceed with discussions with Ibaraki and Moriya City to relocate the two military facilities in Saitama and Toda City. In addition to the aging of the player dormitories, the current facilities have become too small, so it seems that they were considering new candidate sites for the two military facilities. About a year ago, Moriya City (20th anniversary of the enforcement on February 2, 2022) proposed to invite them, and it seems that they have decided to proceed with concrete discussions. The relocation facilities are the 2nd Army Ballpark, the same subground, the indoor practice field, the dormitory and the clubhouse. It is announced that it will aim to open in 2026. According to Mr. Ebata, managing director of the Toda Stadium baseball team, which was submerged due to typhoon No. 19 in October 2019, the stand can only be temporarily installed. It seems that most customers are looking from the bank. He explained to the press that there were some areas that could not be made wider in terms of land. He said the project started concretely in 2019, when it was submerged by a typhoon. In October 2019, the ground of Toda Stadium was submerged due to the impact of Typhoon No. 19, causing great damage and deteriorating the environment. Considering the movement of athletes, it seems that the candidate sites will be narrowed down near the Moriya service area on the Joban Expressway, and all facilities will be newly constructed. JA Ibaraki Minami-related agricultural products direct sales office “Miraittuko (Kamiome, Tsukubamirai City)” is a direct sales office along Prefectural Road 3 in Tsukubamirai City. The direct sales office is characterized by an open structure that makes you feel the warmth of wood, and is particular about “safety and security” and “local production”, and is produced mainly in JA Ibaraki Minami jurisdiction (Tsukubamirai city, Toride city, Moriya city). In addition to fresh vegetables and fruits, we are selling handmade processed products such as pickles, miso, and konjac. The name “Miraittuko” seems to have been named by a public offering because it is warm and friendly. It seems that it is the origin of the agricultural products introduced this time because it is filled with the desire to have consumers buy vegetables that are carefully and lovingly grown like kids.

Continuing from the origin of the name, the suburbs of Tsukubamirai City are a treasure trove of various agricultural products. In particular, Oryza sativa ‘Koshihikari rice’ (originated in Fukui Prefecture. In 1944, at the Niigata Prefectural Agricultural Experiment Station, it was made by multiplying “Norin No. 1”, which has excellent taste but is vulnerable to diseases, and “No. 22”, which is resistant to diseases. The breeding test site, which was designated by the Niigata Prefectural Agricultural Experiment Station, was reorganized into the Nagaoka Agricultural Improvement Experiment Station in 1947 and is under the direct control of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry. It is difficult to cultivate Koshihikari rice, which is weak and easy to fall down, and it is designated as a recommended variety in Niigata prefecture, which is suitable for the climate and climate. The one developed as a test variety is “Etsunan No. 17 (Agricultural Forest No. 100)”, which is later named Koshihikari rice. Although Echinan No. 17 rices has the feature of “good taste”, It seems that it was vulnerable to blast and had the drawback of being prone to lodging. Even during the war, the government’s policy was to increase rice production, and it seems that the same species was not in the limelight. Fumiyuki Sugitani, a staff member of the Nagaoka Agricultural Experiment Station in Niigata Prefecture, paid attention to this Etsunan No. 17 rices. He was looking for a new kind of rice with utmost effort to revitalize Niigata agriculture. However, it seems that the rice fell down because it couldn’t bear the weight of the ears just before it was collected due to the lodging, which is a drawback of Etsunan No. 17. They seem to have continued their efforts to control the growth of ears by fertilizing. As a result, we succeeded in identifying the lodging by the timing of top dressing and the ripe color of the ears. When designating as a recommended variety in the prefecture, it is necessary to apply for registration of the variety registration number with the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries. At that time, Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries officials seemed to think that varieties with low yields should not be registered. Many of Etsunan No. 17 (Agriculture and Forestry No. 100) were recognized for the achievements of Niigata Prefecture’s persuasion, Sugiya, Kobayashi, etc. It was judged that the shortcomings could be compensated for by cultivation technology, and in 1956, Etsunan No. 17 rice was registered as Norin 100, and at the same time, the designation of recommended varieties of Norin 100 was also decided.) Saha is endorsed. “JA Agricultural Products Direct Sales Office Miraittuko” opened in the branch office of the agricultural cooperative is a direct sales office that sells locally produced rice and vegetables harvested by agricultural cooperative member farmers. Fresh vegetables that are harvested in the field and carried as they are are seasonal vegetables that are harvested in each season, such as cut cow parsley, which is prized as a high-class ingredient, and “Tarobei glutinous rice,” which is cultivated as a phantom glutinous rice. It seems that there are many things that are not available in general supermarkets. Although the years go back, it seems that the popular Akindo Sushiro Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Suita City, Osaka Prefecture) and JA Ibaraki Minami, Ibaraki Prefecture, had a parent-child harvesting experience in Tsukubamirai City on August 30, 2015. It seems that about 40 people, with dozens of parents and kids, participated and experienced the process from harvesting to threshing and rice milling. This harvest experience is a food education activity that Sushiro is conducting in the “Go! Go Kids Project”, and is an event to let children know about Sushiro’s commitment to safety and security. It seems that parents and children harvested rice in the field of a contract farmer with Akindo Sushiro in JA Ibaraki Minami jurisdiction, and observed the threshing and rice milling work at JA headquarters. It seems that the children were surprised at the appearance of the threshing machine for tsubo cutting, but they picked up the shells and showed each other. From March 9, 2022, a collaboration campaign with the party game “Momotaro Dentetsu-Showa Heisei Reiwa is also a staple!” From Konami Digital Entertainment Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Ginza, Chuo Ward) will be held at the conveyor belt sushi chain “Sushiro”. This collaboration campaign seems to be part of Akindo Sushiro’s new initiative to provide visual enjoyment. Momotetsu (Momotaro Dentetsu series is a board game format computer game / video game series with the motif of the operation of Hudson’s railway company, and is a derivative series of Momotarou Densetsu. Over 12 million copies. The first game is a family computer software released by Hudson on December 2, 1988. Playing with one to four players, the player becomes the “President” and started in April. Roll the dice once a month and repeat the movement. The ultimate goal of Momotaro is to become rich. It is a game to increase the number of properties. To become the richest as the president) “, appeared in the game. It seems that “Mini Bombie Sushi” with the motif of Mini Bombie and “King Bombie Sushi” with the motif of King Bombie, the worst character in the game, will appear. In 2018, there are many items that boast the highest production in Japan such as chicken eggs, sweet potatoes, melons, peppers, Chinese cabbage, bricks, dried sweet potatoes, mizuna greens, etc. Fruit trees such as Japanese peppers and even rice production are flourishing. The Tokyo Metropolitan Central Wholesale Market has recorded the highest volume of fruits and vegetables in Japan for 17 consecutive years, and Ibaraki Prefecture is truly one of the leading agricultural prefectures in Japan. It is blessed with a mild climate, vast and flat land, and abundant nature. In the era of “Hitachi Fudoki (description of the culture, climate, etc. of Hitachi provence; approach. , People live affluently, it’s like a land of the eternal world (paradise).” Even in modern times, agriculture occupies an important position not only as a key industry in the region but also as a foundation of the country. In addition to this “Ibaraki Agricultural Academy”, the prefecture seems to be making various efforts to enliven agriculture, such as the establishment of the “Ibaraki Eating Campaign Promotion Council” that supports local production for local consumption in all Ibaraki. In addition, the total amount of agricultural output in 2018 exceeded 430 billion yen, and it seems to be the third largest in Japan after Kagoshima prefecture. Rice accounts for about 20%, horticulture about 50%, and livestock about 30%, compared to 25 years ago (around 1984), when rice, horticulture, and livestock accounted for almost one-third each. The structure seems to be changing. The main reason for the increase in the proportion of the horticultural sector in recent years is that vegetables, flowers, etc. are being actively produced by taking advantage of favorable conditions such as being adjacent to the metropolitan area, which is a large consumption area. It seems that it is thought to be for the sake of it. From the beginning of January 2022, according to the Ibaraki Prefecture Production Area Promotion Division, in recent years, natural disasters that have caused enormous damage to agricultural houses have occurred frequently, which has a great impact on agricultural management, and in the prefecture, the wind speed is 36 m. It has announced a policy to promote the development of a house with a strength that can withstand more than / s (Toughening Greenhouse). Along with this, in the prefecture, when constructing or rebuilding agricultural greenhouses in the future, the target of assistance is “Toughening house: About 70% of agricultural greenhouses in the prefecture are pipe greenhouses with a pipe diameter of 22.2 mm. It seems that the maximum wind speed is about 29m / s. It is necessary to take measures such as increasing the pipe diameter and reinforcing with a tie bar. In addition, it seems that the points to be strengthened and the matters to be concerned differ depending on the structure and location conditions of the greenhouse.” In addition, according to the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, medium-to long-term measures to be achieved on December 11, 2020, in order to accelerate measures against natural disasters such as storms and floods that have become severe in recent years, from measures to strengthen business continuity in horticultural production areas. The Cabinet has decided on “five-year acceleration measures for disaster prevention / mitigation and national resilience,” which set goals and measures to be accelerated / deepened. Based on the measures, we support the formulation of Business continuity planning: BCP by multiple farmers to improve the ability to respond to emergencies in horticultural production areas in order to prepare for the occurrence of natural disasters and form disaster-resistant production areas. In addition, it will support the establishment of the system necessary for the execution of BCP and the demonstration of recovery efforts in an emergency. Checkerboard / The top share of Japanese chessboard in Japan is Ibaraki Woodworking Co., Ltd. (Yatabe, Kamisu City), and about 80% of Goban and Shogi boards in Japan are produced by Ibaraki Woodworking Co., Ltd. For more than 55 years since its founding, while inheriting the techniques of traditional crafts, we have introduced technological innovations such as changing the grid process from handwriting to printing and realized mass production. As a top share maker, it seems to be contributing to the development and popularization of the fox industry. The largest beer production quantity in Japan: Ibaraki Prefecture seems to have the largest production quantity in Japan. (349,975 kiloliters / 2018 National Tax Agency Statistics Annual Report) In the prefecture, factories of major beer makers such as Asahi Breweries Ibaraki Factory (Moriya City Midori) where “Super Dry Museum” opened and Kirin Breweries Handle Factory are located. There is. The tallest bronze Buddha statue in the world (Kuno Town, Ushiku City): Official name: Ushiku Amida Daibutsu is the world’s largest bronze Buddha statue certified by the Guinness World Record as well as the highest in Japan, with a total height of 120 m. You can see the inside of the Great Buddha by elevator such as an observatory 85 m above the ground. Flower fields spread out around it, and cosmos is in full bloom in October. Aqua World, the largest number of shark breeding species in Japan Oarai Aquarium, Ibaraki Prefecture: Currently, about 60 species and 400 sharks are bred. The first baby sand tiger shark (sand shark) is born in Japan. Ibaraki Prefecture : It is one of the leading agricultural producers in Japan and boasts the second largest agricultural output after Hokkaido, and the melon production is the highest in the country. Tsukubamirai City : Born on March 27, 2006 by the merger of former Ina Town and former Yawara Village. It is a new municipality with a population of about 51,000 and an area of 79.16 square kilometers. The city is located in the southwestern part of Ibaraki prefecture, within a 40km radius from central Tokyo, and has two major rivers, the Kinugawa and Kokaigawa. Along the Kokai River, a vast paddy field spreads out, and the hills seem to be positioned as a city near the metropolitan area with fields, four golf courses, and residential areas. The road network has National Highway 354 in the north, National Highway 294 in the west, Joban Expressway in the central part, and Yawara IC, which intersects National Highway 294, and is convenient for transportation. Furthermore, in the railway network, the Kanto Railway Joso Line runs parallel to National Highway No. 294, and the Joso New Town development was carried out around Kokinu Station. On August 24, 2005, the metropolitan intercity high-speed railway “Tsukuba Express” that connects Tokyo Akihabara and Tsukuba City will open. It took 40 minutes at the fastest from Miraidaira Station to Akihabara, Tokyo, and 12 minutes to Tsukuba. Around Miraidaira Station, the prefecture has been developing excellent residential areas, and condominiums and shopping centers have been developed. It is also my hometown. The minimum temperature is around 3-4 degrees Celsius, and the maximum temperature is about 26 degrees Celsius, which is an average climate that is neither too cold nor too hot. The annual rainfall is about 1300 mm, and the weather conditions are quite good. Stable calm is also reflected in the tendency of the people of Tsukubamirai City. Toride City : Located at the southern tip of Ibaraki prefecture, the city area is 69.94 km2, 14.3 km east-west, and 9.3 km north-south.In an area blessed with water and greenery, where the two major rivers, the Tonegawa river and its tributary, the Kokai river, flow. The place name is because there was a fort of Mr. Tarozaemon Oshika in the Sengoku Period.However, in the 11th century at the end of the Heian period : As Soma Mikuria of Ise shinto shrine, the area around Toride City has already been recorded in historical materials. When it comes to 13 century, Inatoi, Togashira, Takai, Oshika, etc. These place names also began to appear in historical materials as the territory of Mr. SOMA. Jomon period ruins : Also, from the city, Nakazuma shell mound and Mukaiyama shell mound. 78 ruins from the Paleolithic period to the Nara / Heian period have been discovered. It is said that it has been a place of people’s lives since ancient times. Mito highroad is the Tenna-Jokyo year (1681-1688) : Toride has developed as a post town that plays a central role in the Kitasoma district. For the following details, please come to Toride City. “Moriya City” is located at the southwestern tip of Ibaraki Prefecture, within 40 kilometers from central Tokyo. It is adjacent to Toride City in the east, Joso City in the west, and Tsukubamirai City in the north. The south is a city facing Noda City and Kashiwa City in Chiba Prefecture across the Tone River. The railways that are the means of transportation for people are the Tsukuba Express, a metropolitan area new city railway that connects Akihabara Station and Tsukuba Station, and the Kanto Railway Joso Line. The road runs through the Joban Expressway to Tokyo / Ibaraki and National Highway 294 to Tochigi / Fukushima. In particular, the Moriya service area on the Joban Expressway is the last service area for Tokyo and the first service for Mito / Iwaki. It seems that it is used by many people as an area. The terrain is the Joso Plateau, which is a large diluvial upland extending from the southern part of Ibaraki Prefecture to the northern part of Chiba Prefecture (eastern Kanto region, across the lower reaches of the Tone River, and the Hitachi Plateau in the same prefecture on the north side and the south side. It is a plateau that combines the Shimosa plateau in Chiba prefecture. The plateau seems to be a reddish brown loam (volcanic ash soot) layer, and the groundwater surface is deep. In recent years, the Tsukuba Research Academy City has been established on the Hitachi Plateau, and the Narita International Airport has been established on the Shimosa Plateau. Due to the Tone River eastward relocation work and the Kinugawa River excavation work, it seems that the island-like terrain is surrounded by the Tone River, Kinugawa River, and Kokai River in three directions. The origin of the place name was praised when Yamato Takeru passed through this place during the eastern expedition and the thick forest spreads endlessly. It seems to be said. There seems to be a theory that this was translated into Chinese and read aloud to become “Moriya”. Also, when Taira no Masakado built a castle in this area, there is a theory that it became an easy valley to protect because it was an easy place to protect by deepening the valley high in the hill, and it turned into “Moriya”. It doesn’t seem to be clear about that. However, it is said that Moriya at that time was a place where people gathered from an early stage, with thick forests and deep coves on both sides. “Hito_nouchi_plan ; Farmers based on discussion : Central management body in Regional Agriculture : Clarify the future of Agriculture in the region. It will be announced by the municipalities and will start in 2012. An attempt in the midst of concerns about the aging of the region and the shortage of farmers. A plan that organizes these things. We will conduct questionnaires and map them to understand the current situation : Substantiation of future policy on the consolidation of farmland. Divide the city into 6 areas（The fourth is the FUJISHIRO district）and promote plans for each area. ‘Former Fujishiro Town Kitasoma District, Ibaraki Prefecture’, Abolition is March 28, 2005. 2011 summer high school baseball : The Ibaraki prefectural Fujishiro high school has participated in ‘Koshien’ as a representative of the prefecture. Former FUJISHIRO town name : Taken from Mito highroad (Rikuzenhama-Kaido) Fujishiro-juku : The roads which ran from Edo to Sendai along the Pacific coast were called ‘Rikuzenhama-kaido Road,’ and among them the one which ran to Mito City, where one of three privileged branches of Tokugawa family was located, was occasionally called ‘Mito-kaido Road.’ It had the functions of next Miyawada-juku (Currently Miyawada, Toride City) and alternately fastness.‘In front of the New Corona Virus’ : The source of the previous situation in the jurisdiction :（Domestic situations）The Consumption Activity Index has risen for three consecutive months since the sharp drop immediately after the consumption tax hike. Moreover, the painful tax feeling（share of tax）of the household budget seemed to be gradually eased. “JA Ibaraki Minami Facility Gardening Subcommittee” : It is designated as a fruit and vegetable brand promotion production area for tomatoes（2006年, 取手市, つくばみらい市）. The club has 27 members and produces wintering tomatoes in a cultivated area of 5 hectares, which is appreciated by consumers (2016). All tomato producers in the subcommittee are certified as eco-farmers in Ibaraki prefecture. Environmentally friendly farmer (as recognized by law)とは, 持続性の高い農業生産方式の導入の促進に関する法律の（1999年7月28日, 法律第110号）持続農業法 ; Law for Promoting the Introduction of Sustainable Agricultural Production Practicesに制定. It came into effect on October 25, the same year. They is a farmer who has been certified by the Governor (road, prefecture, prefecture) for the introduction plan of the agricultural production method that integrates soil preparation with compost and reduction of chemical fertilizers and synthetic pesticides. “Technology certification required to become an eco-farmer” “Technology related to soil preparation” (application of compost, cultivation of green manure crops, etc.) “Chemical fertilizer reduction technology” (use of organic fertilizer, local fertilizer application, etc.) “Chemical pesticide reduction technology” (Use of biological pesticides, mechanical weeding, etc.) It is necessary to introduce (or more) one technology that corresponds to the following three categories.）Reduce synthetic pesticides and fertilizers. The entire subcommittee is working on safe and secure tomato production. Selection, sorting and boxing of round tomatoes. By using a joint fruit sorting machine, fruit sorting is achieved without any variation. The cultivars are round ball-based “Reiyo（SAKATA SEED CORPORATION (Headquarters location: Nakamachidai, Tsuzuki Ward, Yokohama City, Kanagawa): It has a good shape with a rich circle, and the color is glossy and deep red. In addition, even if the grass is moderately vigorous, the stamina is strong and the momentum is not too strong, so there are very few occurrences of chuck fruits, windowed fruits, hollow fruits, and streak rotten fruits, so it seems to be well aligned in a beautiful state. Furthermore, the part called flower drop that remains on the actual buttock is also small. The flesh is hard and well-tightened, and has a long shelf life, so it seems to be able to maintain its beautiful condition as it deteriorates and loses its shape slowly after harvesting. Not only does it look beautiful, it also tastes good. The flesh that is tight and firm is tightly packed, even though it is tightly packed. It is not too hard or stiff, and has an excellent texture. The taste is sweet and rich, and you can fully enjoy the original taste. Large ball I heard that it is a tomato variety and is a member of the King Tomato.）” and Gift, and the brand name of “Red Tomato Girl（まっ赤なトマトっ娘）” is also popular. Fujishiro Tomato Beauty: Ladies First, Superfast ripe variety. Because it is a cultivation method that gives almost no water, it relies on soil and solar heat, and temperature control inside the greenhouse is the most important. Even within the same house, it is difficult to produce uniformly because the growth varies depending on the location. It is a proof for the future that the producer’s thoughts are transmitted to consumers and activated. As the flower language says, there are producers for consumers. We always need to thank each other. Again, in JA Ibaraki Minami, which is located in the southwestern part of Ibaraki prefecture, 40 km from the metropolitan area, producers working on environmentally friendly agriculture were certified by the prefecture as eco-farmers in 2002, and the brand tomatoes We are shipping “Red Tomato Girl”. Currently, it seems that the subcommittee is working as one to research tomato varieties and study sessions to improve quality with the aim of designating the brand production area. According to the producer, before planting tomatoes, in addition to soil disinfection by solar heat, JA Ibaraki Minami was asked to perform a soil diagnosis, and the missing components were identified and fertilizer was selected. Also, it seems that they are choosing a disease-resistant shiroki to prevent diseases caused by humidity. After planting, cover the ridges with a mulch sheet. By covering the tomatoes with a mulch sheet after planting and then covering with the mulch sheet, the sunlight can be applied to the soil after planting, and the roots of the tomatoes seem to grow downward. As the roots grow downward, it seems that healthy tomatoes grow by absorbing the nutrients in the soil even in the low temperature from winter to spring. Also, by choosing a white mulch sheet, it seems that the sun’s rays can be reflected and the light can be shined firmly even in the weak winter sunshine. It seems that it is necessary to adjust the humidity according to the growth, but it seems that you may suffer from mold caused by this humidity. Botrytis cinerea Persoon (It often occurs in fruits, petals, leaves, etc., but it seems that it also affects the stems and petioles. When it occurs near the stems at the seedling stage or immediately after planting, the damaged part turns brown and produces gray mold. It seems that the entire strain may die if the disease is severe. Also, when it occurs on the stem above the ground, it seems to be a large dark brown, oval lesion surrounded by purple-brown. After going around, it seems that it will wither from that part and die. In the young fruit, gray mold grows densely on the deflated petiole of the flower that has finished blooming, and it seems that it spreads from the flower drop part to the whole young fruit. The part becomes water-soaked, and it seems that gray mold is formed on the surface and softens and rots. It tends to occur in fruits near the ground. It seems that it invades from the wound or dead part. The optimum temperature for fungal growth is 23 ℃. Minimum 2 ℃. Maximum 31 ℃. Generally, it does not seem to form stalks at low temperature. It is common in cloudy weather and rarely in fine weather. It perishes in the damaged tissue in the form of mycelia and seedling spores and becomes a source of transmission. Mycelial nuclei are rarely formed and perennial even in the soil. It seems that it tends to occur when it is humid at about 20 ° C. It seems that it often occurs in greenhouses and green house cultivation from December to April. It seems that it is easy to occur. It seems that the rapid cooling in the morning and evening significantly promotes the outbreak of this disease. I heard that it is likely to occur in varieties with poor flower drop.) In addition, it seems that they are working on safety and security by using a method called natto control using natto water made by stirring with a mixer. Also, at night when the cold is severe, heat the green house to keep the room temperature between 8 ℃ and 10 ℃. In order to spread the warm air throughout, the air is circulated using several places in the greenhouse, and the vinyl installed just above the main branch is expanded to narrow the area where heating is used. So, it seems that they are trying to improve efficiency so that the room can be warmed evenly with a small amount of energy. It seems that winter and spring tomatoes are harvested manually from late October to June. Carefully lift the fruit a little so as not to damage it, and cut the part between the stem and the calyx with scissors. It seems that the fruits harvested in the summer are selected before they turn bright red, but the tomatoes harvested from winter to spring are selected to be relatively bright red. I heard that the degree of ripening until it hits the market changes depending on the temperature, so it is harvested while carefully checking. Before planting tomatoes, in addition to disinfecting the soil with solar heat, we asked JA Ibaraki Minami for a soil diagnosis, identified the missing components, and selected fertilizer. In addition, in order to prevent diseases caused by humidity, we have selected a sickness-resistant substitute tree. The next step is to cover the ridges with the multi-sheet. The procedure of covering the tomatoes with the multi-sheet（Vinyl, plastic film, etc.）after planting seems to be because the sunlight can be applied to the soil after the planting by covering the multi-sheet later, and the roots of the tomatoes grow downward. As the roots grow downward, it seems that healthy tomatoes grow by absorbing the nutrients in the soil even in the low temperature from winter to spring. Also, by choosing a white mulch sheet, it seems that the sun can be reflected and the light can be shined firmly even in the weak winter sunshine. Last but not least, in Toride City, the production of Nakadama and Tomato is actively carried out by house cultivation in response to the designation of the brand promotion production area in Ibaraki Prefecture, and depending on the season, Yellow Tomato and “Yellow Mimi tomatoes (KANEKO SEEDS CO., LTD.) Headquarters location : Furuichi Town, Maebashi City, Gunma, founded in 1895. Good taste, colored in bright lemon yellow. Average fruit weight is about 15 g, spherical and high M / L ratio. Very few fruit cracks and uniform size of fruits. It seems that there is a merit that the generation of waste fruits is small because it is good. ToMV (Tm-2a; Tomato mosaic virus resistance factor), wilt disease resistant cherry tomatoes. Creased stem (glasses) It seems that it is easy to manage fertilizer, irrigation, etc. Ibaraki Prefecture is a major agricultural prefecture that serves as a food supply base for the metropolitan area, and there are a wide variety of vegetables to produce. Therefore, we are aiming for “profitable agriculture”, developing prefecture-original varieties and branded vegetables, quality control by GAP (Agricultural Production Process Management)”, and acquisition of eco-farmer, which is a proof of “environmentally friendly agricultural practitioner”. , It seems that they are actively promoting the establishment of a safe production system. We are working on the cultivation of agricultural products that suit the times and responding to consumer needs.
Most of the topography in the jurisdiction is flat land around 17 m above sea level, the fields in the Tone River basin are gray lowland and brown lowland (high fertilizer retention and high productivity) in the alluvial lowland, and the upland field is surface rot kuroboku soil. (H3PO4 has a strong fixing force and needs to be applied a lot), and it seems that Yatsuda (a valley field that has become low in the hills) is scattered in the north and south between the plateaus. Since yellow cherry tomatoes dislike continuous cropping disorders, it is recommended to plant them in places where solanaceous vegetables such as tomatoes, eggplants, peppers and potatoes have not been cultivated for more than 3 years. Also, plant in a sunny and well-drained place. It seems that the original fertilizer is applied sparingly and the intention is to supplement it with additional fertilizer.
Bando City, which is under the jurisdiction of the same JA, is an area where tomato production is thriving, and was designated as a brand promotion production area in Ibaraki Prefecture in 2010. In addition, all members are certified as environmentally friendly farmer (as recognized by law) and practice environment-friendly agriculture, and they are working on the production of tomatoes that are particular about taste and have a very good reputation from the market and consumers. In early March 2022, the JA (Sakai Town, Sashima District) vacuum precooling facility was completed in the four districts of Sakai, Sowa, Sanwa, and Sashima within the JA jurisdiction. The vacuum precooling device installed in the buildings of each district such as the collection point seems to maintain the freshness of leafy vegetables such as Chinese cabbage, lettuce, and cabbage from March to November.
Amid the aging of the population and the decrease in the number of producers, in response to the scale reduction of vegetable production areas, not only labor saving in vegetable production but also utilization of idle farmland by village farming organizations and agricultural production corporations organized by JA will be carried out. It has become like. However, it is not common yet, and it seems that new efforts to maintain the scale of the production area are awaited. Under these circumstances, the JA seems to be expanding the scale of the production area by involving large-scale producers who were shipping outside the system to the processing department. In collaboration with large-scale producers, it seems that they are gaining popularity by performing primary cutting of vegetables such as cabbage at their own facilities. In August 2002, the three tomato subcommittees that had been in the jurisdiction were unified, and a new “facility horticulture subcommittee” was established. It seems that they are shipping under the brand name “Red Tomato Girl”. To reiterate, 20 people working on environment-friendly agriculture are based on Article 4 of the “Eco Farmer (Act on Promotion of Introduction of Sustainable Agricultural Production Method (Sustainable Agriculture Act)” enacted in July 1999. , The nickname of a farmer who submitted a “plan for the introduction of a highly sustainable agricultural production method” to the prefectural governor and was certified that the introduction plan was appropriate. It was selected from the applications submitted to the Environmental Conservation Agricultural Promotion Council (Chairman: Kikuo Kumazawa, Professor Emeritus of the University of Tokyo). Currently, aiming to “designate a brand production area”, it seems that he is working with wisdom and effort while being affected by natural disasters.
