Yamagata Prefecture Good Agricultural Practice: The traditional soy beans have brown pods and are cute and have a unique sweetness and rich flavor, which makes them stand out among the edamame. In production, the taste and flavor are not impaired. Thorough maintenance and management of freshness. Diverted weeding and control machines used in Soya bean cultivation. Conventional system for raising seedlings and planting

Mainly, it is well known as the mainstream variety in Niigata prefecture. It is a round TARO cultivar, and is characterized by its roundness and fineness that does not crumble and moderate sliminess. It’s not trivial, but is it popular with the ancient Japanese name?

【主な特徴】

JA Zennoh Yamagata was established on December 21, 2021, NHK (Japan Broadcasting Corporation: established, June 1, 1950, established the Japan Broadcasting Corporation based on the Broadcasting Law, Japan Broadcasting Center, headquarters location, Jinnan, Shibuya Ward, Tokyo, scrambled. It is my frank real intention that I would like you to aim for the BBC in the UK, such as the early start of the program, the distinction between those who have not paid the reception fee, the provision of free content overseas, and the biased reporting. I think it’s an obligation and I’m worried about myself paying it for decades.) The Yamagata Broadcasting Station donates the donations sent by the staff of JA Zennoh Yamagata and affiliated companies as “NHK year-end help fundraising”. The male deputy general manager of JA Zennoh Yamagata (at that time) visited the male director of NHK Yamagata Broadcasting Station (at that time) and handed over the donations and inventory, saying, “Please use it for those in need.” The use of donations is the priority theme of activities for people with physical and intellectual disabilities, elderly people who need support, etc. in Japan, prevention of isolation, support for disaster victims, and the impact of the new coronavirus. I heard that it is a support activity for those who received it. I think it’s a great attempt. The JA Zennoh Yamagata Group seems to continue to support people in need of domestic support through the “NHK Year-end Support”. Former Higashitagawa District Office (prefectural designated tangible cultural property: April 12, 1988), the original county office was at the same time as the former Nishitagawa District Office in Tsuruoka City between 1879 and 1881. It is said that it was built. It seems that it was a very high-colored Western architecture at that time, but in the spring of 1886, it seems that it disappeared due to a big fire in the vicinity. After the reconstruction, it was reborn as a pure Japanese-style dignified and dignified building, which may have surprised the local residents. The interior also incorporates a Western-style architectural style as seen in the corridor-style courtyard, which seems to remind the architects of the time when they were sensitive to the wind of civilization. The builder was Kenkichi Takahashi, who was said to be the leading figure in Shonai at that time, and Iwataro, an adopted child (he was born as the eldest son of Sahyoe Yamamoto, a builder of Zenpoji Temple who lives in Izumi Town, Tsuruoka City, Yamagata Prefecture). He is a great person who worked on buildings that are widely known throughout the country, such as Sankyo warehouse (Sakata City), Nishitagawa District Office (Tsuruoka City), and Zenpoji Five-storied Pagoda (Tsuruoka City). I heard that this is a one-story building, built in 1887. Also, the adjacent Old County Parliament Building seems to have been built around 1902, but it is unknown who designed and constructed it. The building is a wooden colonial style, and the gables on the exterior and the gable ornamentation at the entrance are said to be Gothic. Both were preserved and repaired until 1995, and are now rooted in the area as the Higashidagawa Cultural Memorial Hall. Wase Yamato Taro, but the meat quality is fine and very delicious. It is famous as a selected species of the lotus leaf line that grows quickly. The JA Shonai Tagawa Taro Subcommittee seems to be trying to unify the varieties of taro from 2021 to “Wase Yamato TARO”. So far, we have planted two varieties, “Wase Yamato TARO” and “Dodare TARO”, but it seems that we will try to raise the yield per 10 ares mainly with “Wase Yamato TARO”, which has a good shape and can be expected to have a high unit price. In the TARO subcommittee, in 2021, 28 people cultivated excellent TARO centering on “Wase Yamato TARO” on a total of 6 hectares (60000 m2), and it seems that the shipment quantity in 2020 was about 40 tons, which was about the same as normal. It seems that sufficient bloat was secured by moderate rainfall in the summer. From 2021 production, the number of new producers will increase by five, and while the yield can be expected to increase, it seems that there are concerns about the processing burden due to the increase in the use of help courses for which JA is entrusted with preparation work. Considering the efficiency of food self-sufficiency in Yamagata prefecture, we are very pleased, but I think it is a difficult time in the field considering the pandemic. Compared to the long shape “Dodare TARO”, “Wase Yamato TARO” can be fluffed smoothly by hand or with a special machine, so it is expected that the work efficiency and labor reduction of the course and producers will be improved. It seems that it can be done. In the Kanto market where JA deals, there are strong inquiries about “Wase Yamato TARO”, which is a round shape with a lot of demand for food cooked by boiling, etc., and it leads to advantageous sales with the big aim of securing high income with a small amount of work. It seems to go. In addition, it seems important to produce 2L to 3L size taro along with the unification of varieties. Normally, August is the period of hypertrophy, so I heard that sprinkling should be done thoroughly so that the soil in the field is not dry. The members of the club will keep the rice husks and plant the sprouted seed potatoes from the beginning of May, and it seems that they will thoroughly manage the cultivation in the future. It will soon be a very exciting time for consumers. About two years ago, January 24, 2019, Tsuruoka City and the Faculty of Agriculture, Yamagata University, Private Tohoku University of Arts and Technology, JA Tsuruoka, JA Shonai Tagawa, Yamagata Design Co., Ltd. However, it is a town planning company in the Shonai region of Yamagata prefecture. Established by the investment of a company that has a base or connection in this place, the region itself becomes a party, challenges the mountainous regional issues, creates a future, a dream and a responsible society ) Has signed a partnership agreement for the purpose of fostering and securing leaders of regional agriculture. The closed prefectural facility of Chiyasukyoden and the facility of the former “Ikoi no Mura Shonai” will be utilized as a new stay-type training base facility, and the six parties will work together to accept trainees from outside the city and establish new farmers in the area. It seems that the results of the efforts to connect are coming out. The Shonai Tagawa Agricultural Cooperative is located in the southwestern part of the Shonai Plain, and its terrain extends from the plain to the mountainous areas. The plains on the west side face the Sea of Japan and have an oceanic climate, and the mountainous areas on the east side are characterized by an inland climate located at the foot of the Asahi mountain range and Dewasanzan. It is said that livestock farming such as pig farming, beef cattle, and dairy farming is actively carried out in addition to vegetables, fruit trees, and flowers, centering on rice cultivation that makes the best use of the characteristics of the plain and mountainous areas. Green soybeans; Glycine max (L.) Merrill in the Shonai region has been cultivating a native species of soy beans (a type with brown hair on the surface of the pod) for a long time. It has been actively performed in the center. In recent years, tea bean cultivation utilizing converted rice fields has become widespread throughout the jurisdiction, but the production area has expanded due to the aging of producers, the slump in market prices due to the spread of increased production of green soybeans nationwide, and natural disasters. There is no situation. While many producers are shifting crops to feed rice and processed rice, the characteristic of edamame is that it is growing for processing. Cultivation of edamame in the Shonai region is characterized by cultivating a traditional variety called soy beans and a strong commitment to taste. Therefore, it is often managed in a small area, and it seems that the general cultivation method is to raise seedlings and plant them in order to increase the yield efficiently. A few years ago from the time of 2018, there was a growing tendency among producers to expand the management area, and it seems that producers, JA, and the government have been working together to cultivate green soybeans using a mechanized system. When introducing the mechanized system, we focused on soybean cultivation, which is similar to edamame cultivation, and applied the already systematically established mechanized work of soybean cultivation to edamame cultivation. The major difference between mechanization and the conventional cultivation method is the shift from seedling planting to direct sowing with a sowing machine. It seems that the introduction of direct sowing cultivation improved efficiency and led to an area expansion. Since the characteristics of each variety are the key to increasing the yield, the sowing time and sowing system were examined for each variety, and a system corresponding to direct sowing cultivation was implemented. The management work for the entire cultivation period is carried out by diverting the weeding machines and pest control machines used in soybean cultivation. However, regarding harvesting, it is said that a special harvester has been introduced because the soybean combine cannot be used. The passenger-type green soybean harvester is owned by each of the two green soybean production groups within the subcommittee, and is used for harvesting green soybeans for processing. Currently, 17 producers are harvesting with three passenger-type green soybean harvesters in a field of 68.26 hectares that produces green soybeans for processing. Before the introduction of the riding type edamame harvester, a walking type binder type harvesting machine was used, so it was possible to harvest only about 20 ares per day, and it seems that it was not possible to expand the scale, but riding to take off in the field. With the introduction of the type edamame harvester, it has become possible to harvest 70 to 80 ares per day, and the management area has been expanded. For the harvest of green soybeans for raw consumption, a binder-type harvester is used to manually remove and sort the green soybeans. It seems that non-standard edamame has been shipped for sweets here for a long time. Since it is an item that does not last for a long time, it seems that the processing capacity of careful manual sorting and packaging performed immediately after harvesting is a major factor in controlling product management for raw edamame. On the other hand, the standard for edamame for processing has been relaxed compared to that for raw food, and it can be said that the entry into processing for processing was a natural process with the introduction of mechanization. Regarding packaging, I heard that processing edamame does not carry out bagging work, but after sorting, it is shipped by container. With the introduction of the machine, the time from harvesting to processing has been shortened, and it has become possible to supply soy beans to the shipping destination without spoiling the flavor of soy beans while maintaining their freshness. As for varieties, the same conventional varieties are used for both raw consumption and processing. It seems that processed green soybeans are mainly processed into raw materials for sweets and frozen green soybeans. Boiled and mashed paste is called “Zunda”, but most of the edamame for processing is manufactured from raw edamame to Zunda bean paste at confectionery stores and sold as Zunda rice cake or Zunda bean paste. It seems that it has been done. The work of frozen edamame is outsourced to a processing factory, and it is sold mainly to mass retailers in the Kanto region as JA’s frozen edamame. I also buy and save many times, decorate the table with sake, and every year my family is pleased. In recent years, “Shonai Chamame”, a specialty of the Shonai region of Yamagata prefecture, has been gaining recognition due to its good taste, but with the expansion of sales channels, the increase in yield per area is rapidly accelerating from the viewpoint of maintaining the production area. What is clear is that. Now, I will talk about okra, but first I would like to briefly introduce the vibrant production areas. My hobbies and tastes are mixed for a while, but please forgive me. Shonai Plain, Yamagata Prefecture: It is nurtured by the flow of the mogami river and Akagawa river from different sources. To the north Mt. Chokai : Dewa Sanzan (Three Mountains of Dewa ; Shrine-Mt. Haguro, Mt. Gassan, Mt. Yudono) to the east-It is said that Koteko’s son, Prince Hachiko, escaped from the capital at the discretion of Prince Umayado (Prince Shotoku), and became the founder of Dewa Sanzan (Three Sacred Mountains of Dewa) in Tsuruoka City, Yamagata Prefecture. South is surrounded by mountains in the Asahi mountain range（Mt. Kanko, Mt. Small Asahi, Mt. Hiraiwa, Mt. Torihara, Mt. Iwaigame etc.）One of Japan’s leading granary areas, with large sand dunes on the west side facing the Sea of Japan. Humans settled in the Region as far back as the Paleolithic and Jomon periods. Southern hills and foothills : The ruins of hunting life at that time are interspersion. In the Kofun period, people also settle in the lowlands of the plains. He started his rice-growing life under the control of a powerful family. At the end of the Heian period, a manor called Oizumi-sho was set up in this region. “Gikeiki”, 大泉荘大梵寺を通せ給ふ: Description, Daibon-ji Temple later became known as Daihoji Temple. Eventually it will become the center of Oizumi villa. At the beginning of the Kamakura period, Mr. Muto ruled as lord of a manorof Oizumi villa. Since then, it has prospered as a regional center throughout the Middle Ages : In the 1530s, seeking harm during the war : Take up residence at Oura Castle (now Oyama). From the Middle Ages, Mt. Haguro was a major force here. It is said that he also served as a steward and protected Kurokawa thickly（Inherited for more than 500 years by the parishioner ; It is divided into an upper seat and a lower seat, which are Noza (farmer) of the guardian Kasuga Shrine. Oral biography of the 56th Emperor Seiwa. Designated in 1976 as a national important intangible folk cultural property.）. After the fall, Shonai will be under the control of Echigo Uesugi. In 1591, Kanetsugu Naoe-Ko built Daihoji Castle as a political base. The Naoe army attacked the Yamagata-jo Castle fiercely, and finally besieged the Hasedo Castle, the advance-guard station of the Yamagata Castle (the Battle of Dewa in the Keicho Era or the Battle of Hasedo castle). As a result of the Battle of Sekigahara, Yoshiaki Mogami-Ko, the lord of Yamagata, ruled Shonai in 1601. Daihoji Castle is maintained as a retired castle: In 1603, the name was changed to Tsurugaoka Castle. Entering the Edo period, Mr. Mogami was confiscated in 1622. Instead, Tadakatsu Sakai-Ko（140,000 koku rice ; of rice in hereditary daimyo (whose ancestors supported Tokugawa Ieyasu prior to the battle of Sekigahara)）entered the country as the lord of the Shonai clan. The castle town is maintained with Tsuruoka as the residence-To build on the basics. The Shonai clan has Akumi District and Tagawa District. This is administratively divided into Kawakita Misato and Kawanami Five Streets. 中川通, 櫛引通, 京田通, 山浜通: The Shonai clan was ruled by the Sakai clan for about 250 years. From the Restoration down to the present. In 1869, Mr. Sakai repatriates the edition.etc. “平成の大合併” : 鶴岡市, 藤島町, 羽黒町, 櫛引町, 朝日村, 温海町が合併-平成17年10 月1日に, 新鶴岡市が発足-With an area of 1,311.53 km2, it is the largest city in Tohoku.

Furthermore, in 1890, Yaezato Village was separated from Goshari Village, and in 1891, Goshari Village was renamed Joman Village, and Kiyokawa Village was separated from Karigawa Village. Amarume Village enforced the town system in 1918, Karigawa Village enforced the town system in 1937, and on October 1, 1954, 1 town and 2 villages of Tachiyazawa Village, Kiyokawa Village and Karigawa Town merged with Tachikawa Town, became. In the same year, on December 1, 1956, Amarume Town, Yamato Village, Izaai Village, Sakae Village, Joman Village, and Yaezato Village merged into Amarume Town, and on January 1, 1956, Amarume Town. The two villages of Senbonsugi and Kuwata were separated from each other and incorporated into Tachikawa Town. Then, on July 1, 2005, Amarume Town and Tachikawa Town merged to form Shonai Town. The town is located in the northwestern part of Yamagata prefecture, from the southeastern part to the center of the Shonai Plain. A long north-south terrain along the clear stream Tachiyazawa River, which has the summit of Mt. Gassan, and the Mogami River, one of the three major rapids in Japan. It borders Sakata City to the north and northwest, Tozawa Village to the east, Okura Village to the southeast, Tsuruoka City to the southwest, and Mikawa Town across the Mogami River. It is a turning point connecting the regions and a gateway to the Shonai region. The climate is generally oceanic and relatively warm, but in winter the closer to the south (Moonyama side), the heavier the snowfall, the stronger the monsoon from the northwestern part (Sea of Japan side), and From spring to autumn, the strong winds in the east-southeast from the valley of the Mogami River are famous as “Kiyokawa-Dashi（It is counted as one of the three major local winds in Japan and is a representative example of isthmus winds. The Mogami River passes through the Mogami Gorge (a gorge with a width of about 1 km and a length of about 10 km that forms the saddle of the Dewa Hills).）”. It is about 22.2 km east-west, about 38.9 km north-south, and has an area of 249.17 km2, making it the 12th largest area in the prefecture. By region, forests account for about 62.9% and rice fields account for 22.8%. “Amarume Hachiman Shrine” : This shrine is located in Amarume, Shonai Town, and was founded in 719 when it was said that it solicited the spirit of Usa Hachimangu (Usa City, Oita Prefecture, Buzen Kuniichigu). It was the vassal of Mr. Fujiwara Oshu and the deity of Mr. Sato. In the Kamakura period, Minamoto no Yoritomo-Ko gave him the title of Amarume Hachimangu Shrine, and he was the general guardian of Amarume Township. It is said that the priest of Saigoku Fudasho solicited the sand from the Saigoku Fudasho (takes the sand home) and established it as the 33 Kannon sacred sites in the Shonai region. Reorganized in 1950, there are now 35 sacred sites across the five cities of Sakata, Tsuruoka, Yuza, Shonai, and Mikawa.) It was worshiped as one of Hachiman. In the Middle Ages, Mr. Anbo ruled the area around the area, and in 1362 he relocated Amarume Hachiman Shrine as the guardian shrine of his own building. For a long time after that, it was on the site of Mr. Anbo’s mansion, but in the early modern period, 1637, he moved to the site for the first time in 260 years. The current Amarume Hachiman Shrine is an old building built in 1814, and it is said that it adopted the same ceremony as the Dewasanzan Shrine Sanjingo Shrine, and the worship hall and the main shrine are integrated and the palace is enshrined inside. The exterior of the hall of worship is the hip gable roof, thatched roof, 5 girders, a large staggered gable in front, and the eaves gable is used for the 3 room’s, and the xylem is colored in various colors, mainly vermilion. The detailed sculptures are also fine and elaborate, and the wrestler statues are often seen in northern Yamagata and southern Akita prefectures, and are thought to have a strong local color. The hall of worship and the palace are the remains of the shrine building in the latter half of the Edo period and are excellent in design, so they were designated as tangible cultural properties designated by Shonai Town in 1992. There are many sacred treasures. Inakari exhibition map (votive tablet: 1 sheet) and Anbo Akiyama discussion map (votive tablet: 2 sheets) (竪矧黒塗皺韋包二枚胴具足（1領）, 有栖川熾仁親王書「八幡宮」1 width) is designated as a tangible cultural property designated by Shonai Town.

Large shrine: village shrine. “六渕 / 瀬場砂防堰堤（立谷沢地内）” : Rokubuchi and Seba, two sabo dams constructed in the 1950s. It is made of boulder concrete, the beautiful curve of the water passage part, and it was made by the high technology and skill of the time, and it is difficult to restore it now, and it seems to be a very valuable sabo dam. The words “Mokushiteyu; By Yasushi Kurakami (Former Mogami River Sabo Construction Office Construction Manager)” engraved on the back of the stone monument on the Saba Dam express the spirit of those involved in the difficult construction. In the Tachiyazawa River basin, there are many monuments to the dragon and water gods that tell the history of suffering from flooding.

It faces Mt. Chokai, which is called Dewa Fuji in the north, and Mt. Gassan, a sacred mountain in the east. It is a rich place, adjacent to the castle town of Tsuruoka and the port town of Sakata. The Akagawa River, which runs along National Highway No. 7 that runs through the town, brings the blessings of the fertile land and is developing as one of the leading rice fields in the granary area, Shonai. Agricultural products other than rice, such as melons, shiitake mushrooms, and green onions, are actively produced and shipped not only locally but also to the Tokyo metropolitan area, and are highly evaluated. The town was born from Yokoyama Village, Togo Village, and Oshikiri Village. The name is derived from Sansen of the Akagawa River, Oyama River, and Fujishima River that flow through the town, and the fertile land created by each is always the yield per area even in the Shonai Plain, which is one of the leading breadbaskets in Japan. It is in the top class. The terrain of the spacious rural town is smooth, and the scenery overlooking the beautiful mountains such as Mt. Chokai and Mt. Gassan makes your heart clear. As a pure farming village from ancient times, Mikawa Town, which continues to coexist with nature, promotes and develops the region and moves forward while preserving the culture and environment that will lead to the next generation. A bone that seems to be an unknown creature, Degotsuchi (Tschinoko), is enshrined in the Soto Sect Eirinsan Kozenji Temple in a village called Zennami. In the Meiji era, when a pond in a nearby mountain was drought and brought “bones” from the bottom of the pond, unhappiness occurred one after another. According to the teachings of the shrine maiden, the discoverer gave a generous memorial service at Kozenji Temple. Is enshrined as the bone of a dragon god. In the village of Sukegawa in the town, there is a small pond called “Ono Komachi Pond.” There is a legend that Ono no Komachi was born in this area, and it was this pond that abandoned the hot water produced. It is also said that no matter how much it rains, it will not overflow. In the Oshikiri area, there is a straw-stacked Nio where a god snake called “Snake Nio” lives. A long time ago, a small straw nio flowed during the flood and stopped at the current position. Two snakes came out of it, so it was enshrined at a nearby shrine. However, at one point, the river overflowed again due to the flood and was washed away about 150 m downstream. Then, unhappiness occurred one after another in the area, and when I talked to the shrine maiden, there was a god’s announcement that Snake Nio wanted to return to the previous position, and while doing so, another flood occurred, and this time it was swept away It is said that it returned to its original position. アトク先生の館（Mikawa Town Cultural Exchange Center）: Known as the old house of Sanbongi. Built in the early Showa period, it was designed by Mr. Saichiro Miyajima, who also worked on imperial architecture. It is a one-story building made of cypress, with a copper plate roof, and a floor area of about 340 m2. The nickname is said to have been given by open recruitment because Mr. Tokusaburo Abe (1907-1994), who was the owner of the museum and taught at Yamagata University, was familiar with “Mr. Atoku” during his lifetime. It is said that the Ikezumi strolling garden was built in the Genroku period of the Edo period by collecting famous trees and rare stones from all over the country at a huge cost of 1,000 Ryos. Due to its design, it is known as one of the most famous gardens in Shonai. In addition to the doll displayed at Girls’ Festival being exhibited in March every year, a tea party is held in May and November with a view of the garden. It is also known as the filming location for “Departures; おくりびと,” which won the 81st Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film; 2009, International Feature Film Award. I heard that “Okra” came to Japan around 1872. However, unlike other vegetables, it did not seem to spread immediately because the green odor and the slimy feeling were shunned. It seems that the shadow of the war is behind the rapid spread in Japan. It seems that Japanese soldiers, our ancestors who fought in various parts of Southeast Asia during the Pacific War, were often saved by the vigorous okra in their starving self-sufficient lives. It seems that the soldiers (commoners) naturally became familiar with the taste, and after returning to Japan, they were cultivated and established excellent varieties in the Japanese climate. After that, the number of lovers of okra as a nourishing tonic and stamina food containing a lot of calcium and iron increased, and the consumption increased from around 1965-1970. As a green-yellow vegetable that is loved by men and women of all ages and children, it has now gained the existing citizenship. I hear that it is native to Okra tropical North Africa, which is a valuable traditional vegetable. Propagation seems to have been cultivated normally in Egypt in the 13th century. It seems that it began to be cultivated in Brazil in the 17th century and in the United States in the early 19th century. It was popularized early in India and other countries. It is an annual plant native to northeastern Africa, and young fruits are used for food. It is classified into the genus Hibiscus, and its flowers are similar to those of Hibiscus and Hibiscus syriacus. Fruits are also famous as health foods, but flowers are quite enjoyable, and they are also famous as crops with flowers and fruits. The fruits have a unique slimy texture, are rich in dietary fiber, have an intestinal regulating effect, and are rich in vitamins, making them ideal for healthy body care. The Japanese name is the name of the place of origin, and it seems that it is a perennial plant in warm regions. However, depending on the shape and color of the fruit, it is divided into mainstream horn okra, hornless round okra, red okra with red yasa, and flower okra that eats petals, and there are many varieties that are not distributed in the market. For some reason, it doesn’t seem to be well understood. I forgot that okra seeds resemble coffee beans. From this, it seems that there is a history of cultivating coffee beans instead of coffee beans in ancient England and France. Also, during World War II, he seemed to prefer ripe seeds as a substitute for coffee beans. In terms of the suitability of okra, the range of soil adaptation is wide, and it seems that the soil quality is not so selected. Paddy soil seems to be more suitable than upland because the damage of Ipomoea batatas（The roots parasitized by this species have swollen tissues and become bumpy, and when there are many outbreaks, the entire roots become full of bumps and their growth is significantly inhibited. In severe cases, the roots rot and the strains die. Especially vulnerable. After molting once in the egg, it becomes a second stage larva and hatches from the egg. The second stage larva moves around in the soil, invades the tissue from the vicinity of the root cap of the root, settles near the vascular bundle, ingests nutrients, and becomes an adult after molting twice. Adult females excrete gelatinous egg sac and lay eggs in it. I heard that the number of eggs laid is about 400 to 800. It seems that it will start to work when the soil temperature rises above about 10 ° C. The required number of days for one generation is about 25 to 30 days under suitable conditions, and it is until several generations pass each year. The range of owners is wide, and it damages many agricultural products such as Gramineae, beans, Lily, Eggplant, Akaza, Abura, Chrysanthemum, Gourd, Oenanthe, Calystegia, Taro, and Yamanoimo. Causes enormous damage to agricultural products. As a countermeasure, it is better to avoid continuous cropping and change the cultivation field as much as possible. In institutional cultivation, the steaming treatment in the summer is preferably at 30 ° C or higher for 16 days or longer.）is large. Since the roots are taproot, it seems that productivity is higher in soil with deep cultivated soil and rich in organic matter. Immerse it in water for about 2 hours, then place it on a damp paper and let it dry for at least 12 hours. In addition, it is said that it is good to flood it well. After germination, two round cotyledons develop and the first leaf develops in 15 to 25 days. After that, the development of new leaves is every 3 to 5 days, and it seems that it tends to accelerate as the temperature rises. The first flower seems to bloom a neat cream-colored flower at the 4th to 5th nodes 45 to 50 days after sowing. The flowers are one-day flowers, which begin to bloom early in the morning and deflate in the evening. The growth until the first flower blooms is slow, but after that, the growth speed is accelerated due to the rise in temperature. If growth goes smoothly, harvesting will begin 70 days after sowing.

The growth until the first flower blooms is slow, but after that, the growth speed is accelerated due to the rise in temperature. If growth goes smoothly, harvesting will begin 70 days after sowing. It takes a few days for the first fruit to be harvested after it blooms, but it can be harvested in 3 to 4 days during the midsummer season. Cultivation is possible until the frost season, and when sown in April and cultivated until October, the flowering node grows to about 40 nodes and the plant height grows to 2 to 3 m. When exposed to frost, growth is significantly impeded and sad but seems to die. “Bonds” means the bonds between things that cannot be broken. It is the mission of producers to maintain this bond while striving for discerning production and shipping so that consumers can eat agricultural products safely, securely and deliciously. Thank you very much. The biggest problem with the 330 cluster in the jurisdiction is the successor. I have tried to secure a leader in the area, but my child has no choice but to come from outside because he has no choice but to go out or become a worker. However, it seems that new entrants who yearn for organic farming have had problems with pest outbreaks and water management, but consumers just kept silent so as not to overwhelm the voices of the field. Let’s support in the shadow（I’ll support you secretly）.
