Mr. Kato, the owner of Kaminoyama Kanko Fruit Garden Co., Ltd. in Mikami, Kaminoyama City, worked hard to select seedlings and registered them as varieties in 1990. He seems to have grown up surrounded by cherry trees from the time he got the hang of it. It seems that there were some farmers around the area who harvested cherries for 3000 jointies (estimated to be about 10 tons). However, it seems that the field of my house was not good at making a small area and the yield was very small. Therefore, since I was a junior high school student, I went to other farmers to help with the harvest. Why can’t I get it? It seems that it was disappointing. And at the age of 13, he wanted to make the best cherries in Japan. I became a fool of cherries. It seems that someday people around him started to call him “Cherry Silly”.
A long-established manufacturer in Toyooka City, Hyogo Prefecture, which is a major production area of bags, has developed an all-leather shogi board and pieces in cooperation with craftsmen in Tendo City, Yamagata Prefecture, which is the largest producer of pieces in Japan. The koma, which is made of multiple layers of polished leather and engraved with hand-carved letters, seems to sometimes create a sense of luxury with a melancholic feel. The shogi set was manufactured by Hattori Co., Ltd., which was founded in Toyooka City in 1885. Member organizations: Japan Bag Association, National Bag Wholesaler Association, Hyogo Prefecture Bag Wholesalers Association Toyooka Kaban Association, Toyooka Chamber of Commerce and Industry. Toyooka Employers’ Association). After the distribution of the model bag “Yanagi Kori (a kind of woven kudzu basket. A cuboid container with a lid. It seems to be used to store clothes, documents, and miscellaneous items)”, it is now a bag. Engaged in manufacturing and wholesale. Demand has plummeted due to the pandemic, and lifestyles have changed. A production plant for the liquid “AdBlue®” required for diesel engine vehicles such as trucks has been completed in Tendo City, Yamagata Prefecture, and the opening ceremony is being held on July 4, 2022. “AdBlue®” is high-quality urea water, which seems to be used in devices that purify gas emitted from diesel engine vehicles such as trucks and buses. “AdBlue® (high-grade urea water used as a reducing agent in the SCR system. PM can be reduced if high combustion efficiency is required at high temperatures in diesel engines, while nitrogen in the air is oxidized to generate NOx. The SCR system can decompose NOx into nitrogen and water by injecting urea in the muffler against the increasing NOx, and has succeeded in achieving both clean performance and improved combustion efficiency of diesel vehicles. The strictest standard in the world. It is a next-generation system that looks ahead to not only Japan’s new long-term regulations but also the planned post-long-term regulations. The main component is urea. It is colorless and transparent manufactured by dissolving high-purity industrial urea in pure water. It is an aqueous urea solution. It is sprayed on the exhaust gas inside the catalyst installed in the diesel vehicle and decomposes nitrogen oxides, which are the cause of air pollution, into nitrogen and water. Urea water is a colorless, harmless liquid. It is also used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and fertilizers. AdBlue® is a harmless and safe product, so it does not seem to require any special qualifications for handling.)” However, due to the suspension of imports from China, etc. , There has been a shortage since last year, and prices are skyrocketing. For this reason, Tendo City’s transportation company “Koei Transport (located in the Osho Industrial Park in Tendo City, Yamagata Prefecture, National Highway No. 13 that crosses north and south, National Highway No. 48 that circulates in Sendai, and National Highway No. 112 that accesses the Shonai region of Yamagata Prefecture” It is located at the base point, and it is very convenient to use the Yamagata Kita Interchange on the Yamagata Expressway, the Tendo Interchange on the Tohoku Chuo Expressway, and the expressway. It seems that we are making efforts to make it available to more customers in the near future. Based on community-based, it will be the foot of the company that sends from Yamagata to the whole country, respond to the various needs of customers, and the client company will develop further. It seems that they are coexisting and co-prospering together and working hard every day so that Yamagata Prefecture can develop further. The corporate philosophy is that “carrying is living” and the workers are living in the work of “carrying”. In “Practicing and pursuing” carrying that is useful to people and contributes to society, rather than simply carrying it, we opened the first production factory in the prefecture to provide a stable supply of AdBlue®. A new large ball variety of cherries that will pre-debut this year, “Yamagata Benioh Cherry (Yamagata Prefecture has spent more than 20 years growing it and pre-debuted on June 23. The shipment volume in 2022 is about 6 tons, the prefecture. Aiming for the largest production area of “0.05% of the total cherry production”, Tendo City and JA Tendo established a study group on May 19, 2022. The brand name of “Yamagata C12 Cherry” (registered in March 2020), a new variety of cherries developed by Yamagata Prefecture, which has the largest number of shipments in Japan. The cherry developed by the prefecture is the seventh variety since the “Beni Yutaka Cherry”, which was registered as a variety in 2009. It seems that the use of the matching app “daywork”, which allows you to recruit and apply for agricultural part-time jobs on a daily basis, is spreading among cherry producers in Yamagata prefecture who are suffering from labor shortages during the harvest season. I heard that the ease with which job seekers can choose the day they want to work is popular, and there are many applications for side business purposes. Producers seem to be trying to utilize it to secure stable labor. Kamakura Industries Co., Ltd. (Location: Yamanouchi, Kamakura City, Kanagawa Prefecture: Agriculture where labor shortages are becoming more serious due to a shortage of successors and a decrease in new farmers. One app to solve such problems. The feature of this service is that it focuses on “daily farming work” rather than long-term matching, and it is now a new way of hiring and working to protect the future of agriculture. Introduced to more than 80 JAs) developed. Job seekers can search for job information based on the date, place, and daily salary conditions and apply with a single click. It is operated with a subsidy from the Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Mirai Fund (Tokyo), and seems to be available free of charge. The introduction of the app to the prefecture was started in June 2021 by the prefectural agricultural labor force securing measures implementation council made by the prefecture and producers. By the end of May 2022, there were 263 producers and 807 job seekers registered in the prefecture. The occupation of job seekers is the largest at 36%, and it seems that the use for side business purposes is conspicuous. Although the council has been increasing the number of job offers at employment security offices and employment agencies of agricultural cooperatives, it seems that employment every few weeks, which is a prerequisite, was a hurdle. Regarding the use of the app, the person in charge of the prefecture analyzes that it is being used by people who were difficult to apply for conventional job offers. The users are not always ready to work, but it seems that they are calling on the producers to use them properly, such as by letting them do simple tasks. The city area’s a fan of Tachiya River, Midare, etc. originating from the Ouu Mountains, and the western part is a plain part that belongs to the Yamagata Basin. The eastern part is a mountainous area included in the Ouu Mountains. The Mogami River flows along the city area in the southwestern part, and the Kurazu River flowing in the central part and the Midare flowing in the northern part join the Mogami River Located in the central part of the prefecture, Yamagata City is bordered by the Tachiya River in the south, Mogami River is bordered in the west, Kangawae City and Hebei Town in Nishimurayama County, Nakayama Town in Higashimurayama County, and Higashine City in the north. It is a rhombic shape with a long east and west. It is a fan-shaped area such as the Tachiya River and the Ran River that originated in the Ou Mountains Zone. In the southwestern part of the city, the Mogami River flows along the city area, and the Kuratsu River flowing in the central part and the Ran River flowing in the northern part join the Mogami River). I hear that many varieties have been introduced from overseas since the Meiji era in Japan. As for the environment, it is preferred that the terrain and soil of the: orchard are flat and the ratio of volcanic ash soil is high. In the Takadama district of Tendo City, when the Yamadera Risshakuji Temple was opened in the Heian period, the rich spirit and religious spirit represented by some stone cultural properties were created in the Takadama district. After Yoshinao Shiba set up his residence about 600 years ago, water from the mountain temple and abundant spring water filled the moat, and a castle town was formed in which the surrounding temples were moved to protect the four corners. The Ushu Highway and the east-west road that connects Risshakuji Temple and Jionji Temple pass through, and the remnants of this area, where daimyo and travelers from Sankin-Kotai came and went, and there were many wealthy farmers, are the blackboard walls, gates, and anticipation that still remain. It seems that you can tell from the pine trees, etc. It seems that you are working to promote community development that many people visit while disseminating information about Takadama’s precious history inside and outside the area. Shoge’s stone entrance gate, which is a tangible cultural property designated by the prefecture, stands in a field slightly north of the intersection of Yamadera Highway and Yoko Highway. The entrance gate is made of tuff and has a height of 3.87 m. The pillar is 91 m thick and has a circumference of 2.79 m. Kasagi and Shimaki on the pillar seem to consist of one stone. Both Kasagi and Shimaki seem to be cut vertically at both ends. The kan and bundles have been lost, but it seems that traces of inserting the kan remain in both through holes. Because it stands facing west, it is believed that things stood toward the mountain temple. Together with the stone entrance gates of Motoki, Yamagata City and Rokuta, Higashine City (Yojiro Inari Shrine), it is said to be one of the “best three entrance gates” and has almost the same style. Takadama Castle was built 600 years ago by Yoshinao, the grandson of the owner of Yamagata Castle, Kaneyori SHIBA (the second son of the Oshu quest Shiba family and the ancestor of the Hashu quest Mogami). It is a contoured flat castle surrounded by a quadruple moat, and it seems that a small castle town was created by taking in water and spring water from the mountain temple and moving the surrounding temples to protect the four corners. It seems that there are still some remnants of roads such as junctions, cityscapes, and place names. The moat disappeared with the times and was completely filled in the 1965s, so it seems that only a part of the moat remains today. In 1979, in order to convey the irreplaceable historic site left in the hometown to the future, a monument to the Takadama castle ruins was placed on the site of the former Takadama village office (currently Tatenouchi Community Center) near the main gate of Takadama Castle Nimaru. Erect. The inscription was written by Yorinobu TENDO, the 24th generation of the Tendo family, a descendant of the Tendo castle owner who was associated with the castle. Going back a little in history, the Tendo Oda clan is a clan that has Oda Nobunaga’s second son Nobunaga as an ancestor. Nobunaga and his eldest son, Nobutada, were attacked by his vassal Mitsuhide AKECHI in 1582 and committed suicide at Honnoji Temple, and his second son, Nobutada, took over. After that, the Oda clan ruled the Obata clan (Kanra Town, Gunma Prefecture) and the Takahata Clan (Takahata Town, Yamagata Prefecture). Crop yield was about 23000 koku of rice, and the territory was 21 villages in the Murayama region (Murayama district). Since life in Takahata was difficult, he entered Tendo to produce safflowers in Tendo and rebuild the economy. At that time, safflowers from the Edo period were useful as dyes and cosmetics, and it seems that they were so expensive that it was said that “Monme was a gold one.（≒ 3.75 g）” In the current Tendo city, it was located in Tendo, Oshimizu, Kubonome, Nagaoka, Haga, Terazu, Ozeki, and Araya. At that time, in addition to the Tendo Oda domain, the villages of the Tsuchiura domain, Kitame branch, Tatebayashi domain, Shogunate domain, and Tanagura domain were mixed in the current Tendo city. The relationship between Tendo and the Oda clan has been about 100 years since the country was changed to Takahata and came under its control until the Oda clan disappeared at the end of the Tokugawa shogunate. Among them, it seems that it was only about 40 years after Nobukazu ODA that the Oda clan directly ruled Tendo by letting the vassals live mainly in Tendokan (currently Tazuru Town, Tendo City). As the purpose of formulating the basic policy, with the progress of motorization in recent years and the opening of large-scale customer attraction facilities, it seems that the attractiveness of the city as a “face of the city” in the central city area is decreasing, and the vitality is declining. In order to improve this difficult situation, Tendo has been holding the “Tendo Town Development / Urban Revitalization Roundtable” since 2011. In addition, we will conduct a questionnaire on Tendo City shopping streets and urban revitalization, and a questionnaire on consumer trends in Tendo City, and get the voices of shop owners and consumers. We have formulated the “Tendo Central City Revitalization Basic Policy” in order to summarize these opinions and create and revitalize the liveliness of the central city area. I heard that Tendo City has relatively little snowfall in the eastern part of central Yamagata Prefecture, with fruit fields mainly in the east and paddy fields in the west, and there are many farmers who mainly use fruit trees. Main agricultural products “cherry”, apples, western pear, grapes, rice, thighs, beef cattle, farmer image required by pig farming areas Dout, western pear, grapes and other fruit trees are cultivated and produced to protect the production area and brand. Seems to need it. New farming support system Technology and management guidance is provided by the Agricultural Technology Promotion Division of the Murayama General Branch Office of Yamagata Prefecture, and the Agricultural Guidance Division of the Tendo City Agricultural Cooperative. At the Yamagata Prefectural Horticultural Experiment Station (currently Yamagata Prefectural Agricultural Research Center Horticultural Experiment Station) in Sagae City, in 1979, “Sato Nishiki Cherry” × “Tenko Nishiki Cherry” (1960, from the garden of Unkichi Nagase, Takeda The accidental seedlings discovered by Takesaburo (named in 1965) were selected and bred from the seedlings obtained by crossing, and were registered as varieties in 1991. In the first year of the Meiji era (1868: Restoration of the Royal Government), German R. Gartoner planted six cherry trees in Hokkaido (Nanai Town, Kameda District, Hokkaido: an artificial beech forest is also known). Was done. After that, “Hakodate” was the central area, but the pioneer was moved to Sapporo because it was too biased to the south. Thus, after the bakufu transferred power back to the Emperor, the Meiji Restoration began with a declaration of The restoration of imperial rule on December 9, 1867. Under the Decree for the Restoration of Imperial Rule, the Meiji Government intended to pursue theocracy and use Shinto as its base. planning of agricultural development in Hokkaido by the Meiji government focus on Kiyotaka KURODA and Horace Capron, History Anthropology Society, Choi Shobo, 1980.9 (En marge de l’histoire; historical boundary), A Study on Kenjiro YAMAKAWA’s Study Abroad, Faculty of Letters, Aoyama Gakuin University It is said that the first issue of the Department of History, 1970.3 (1969), Both, CiNii Articles) imported seedlings from the United States of America and spread them to Hokkaido and the Tohoku region. In Yamagata Prefecture, original breeding was promoted, and because the climate was suitable, it developed into industrial cultivation. Today, it boasts the highest production volume in Japan. Agriculture, which controls the bright signs of Japan and the development of the first industry, will be reborn from Tendo City, Yamagata Prefecture. Mr. Kato, the owner of a tourist orchard in Kaminoyama City, has worked hard to select from seedlings and registered the varieties of “Taisho Nishiki cherries”. Befitting its name, it has a large, crispy flesh and a very sweet taste (more than Beni Shuho cherries). Sato Nishiki Delivered to consumers from related parties in early July when the cherries are over. It has a long shelf life and is not easily damaged. Also, the shoulders are lifted like apples, and they are heart-shaped and cute. The planted area is only 0.4% of the total cherries. A variety selected and bred from accidental seedlings found in a mixed plantation of Napoleon cherries, Sato Nishiki cherries, and Takasago cherries. It is an excellent variety that acquired the seedling method registered variety No. 2216 in April 1990. The biggest feature is that the flesh is very hard, and there is no swelling or uneven color. It is a large ball with a fruit weight of nearly 10 g, has a good appearance, is brightly colored, and tends to be well colored even in the shade of leaves and lower branches. It has a high sugar content of 20 degrees or more, is juicy, and has a good taste. The tree is strong, and the tree is upright and close to Takasago cherries. Pay attention to the formation of the main branch so as not to make an acute angle. The flowering period is later than that of Napoleon cherries and 1 to 2 days earlier than that of Sato Nishiki cherries, so mutual mating is good. It is an Okute species from early to mid-July in the breeding ground. It seems that it is expected to reach maturity 60 to 65 days after full bloom.
Large, plump flesh, less sour than Benishuho cherries, and very sweet. Sato Nishiki cherries are shipped around the end of the season, and seem to have a long shelf life and are resistant to damage. The shoulder part is lifted like an apple, giving it a heart-shaped and cute impression. It seems that the planted area is only 0.4% of all cherries.
Cherry cultivation seems to begin with pruning branches in January and February, when the fields are covered with snow. Pluck off excess buds in March and treat disease and frost in April. When it blooms, it seems to fly bees for pollination and reduce the number of cherries to an appropriate number. If pollen adheres to the pistil, it will be pollinated and bear fruit, but with the exception of pollen and pistil of the same tree, pollen and pistil will not pollinate and bear no fruit. The brave bees, which fly from flower to flower with a lot of pollen on their bodies, seem to play an important role in pollination because they carry pollen from other trees. The Japanese wasp is a small bee about 1 centimeter long, and it seems that it collects pollen from fruit trees and flowers, forms a pollen ball in a tubular reed, and lays eggs there. The larvae that hatch from the eggs grow while eating pollen balls, become pupae and spend the winter, and when the weather warms up in the spring, they transform into adults (also known as the honey bee) and fly away. Cherry blossoms are pollinated when pollen is actively collected.
In 2020, Tendo City ranked first in the prefecture for the output of apples and pears. The certified new farmer system is a system for municipalities to certify the “young farmer plan” created by those who start farming for the first time, based on the Law for Promotion of Strengthening the Agricultural Management Base. For those who have been certified, it seems that intensive support measures will be taken. Approved New Farmer Requirements Eligible Persons Young people who are trying to start farm management and those who meet the conditions. Youth (generally between the ages of 18 and under 45), middle-aged and elderly individuals with specific knowledge and skills (between the ages of 45 and under 65), corporations where the majority of the officers are those above. It seems to include those who have already started farming and have not passed a certain period of time (5 years). Does not include certified farmers. The main certification criteria are that the youth farming plan is appropriate in light of the basic concept of promoting the strengthening of Tendo City’s farm management base (agricultural income of 2 million yen or more, annual farming days of 150 days or more, etc.), It seems certain that the plan will be achieved.
