【主な特徴】
Shantung vegetables are said to have been introduced from Shandong Province in China in the early Meiji period. A traditional vegetable that has been cultivated in the southeastern part of Saitama Prefecture, and has been improved to be harvested quickly for small bundles, the local name is “Santona; 山東な”. It is also called “small sailing boat used for collecting nori, etc. vegetable” because it was transported by a “small sailing boat used for collecting nori, etc.” In Iwatsuki Ward, Saitama City, nine producers who follow the tradition without changing the seed produce about 240 tons per year of greenhouse cultivation and ship them to supermarkets in Saitama, Tokyo, Kanagawa, and other prefectures. However, it seems that this agricultural product is sensitive to heat. In the summer, the greenhouse is covered with black curtains to avoid direct sunlight, and in the winter, it is covered with a heat insulating sheet to keep the temperature under control. In addition, since the same soil is used for cultivation over and over again, it seems that they also pay attention to soil preparation using organic fertilizers. Wilting caused by pathogenic fungi or pests (soil-infected disease that infects roots and stems near the ground. Since the roots are affected first, poor growth and wilting occur, but as the symptoms progress, the lower leaves begin to die, I have heard that the stem is also brown and discolored) is also a cause for concern. The Saitama High-speed Railway Line, which opened in 2001, is a 14.6 km line connecting Akabane Iwabuchi Station in Kita Ward, Tokyo to Urawa Misono Station in Midori Ward, Saitama City, Saitama Prefecture. From Akabane Iwabuchi Station on the south side, board the Tokyo Metro Nanboku Line, and some trains run to the Tokyu Meguro Line, which connects to the Tokyo Metro Nanboku Line. At the time of 2021, it seems that the Saitama High-speed Railway Line had an extension plan to connect Urawa Misono Station to Hasuda Station in Hasuda City, Saitama Prefecture, via Iwatsuki Station in Iwatsuki Ward, Saitama City in the north. Of these, the section from Urawa Misono Station to Iwatsuki Station has a concrete concept. Subway Line 7 Intermediate Station Town Development Policy The first meeting of the Expert’s Meeting was held on July 8, 2022 in Iwatsuki Ward, Saitama City, Saitama Prefecture, and it seems that the committee members exchanged opinions. The city seems to be planning to extend from Urawa Misono Station on the Saitama High-speed Railway to Tobu Iwatsuki Station and to establish an intermediate station near Mejiro University Saitama Iwatsuki Campus (Ukiya, Iwatsuki Ward). By November of this year, a total of four meetings will be held to gather opinions, public comments will be made, and a town development policy will be formulated by the end of this year. Cultivation of Iwatsuki green onions began before the Edo period, and it seems that they were popular in a wide area in the Kanto region. classic rakugo stories Tarachine (垂乳根: a story that was ported to Tokyo as Tarachine from the story that was played as “Enyohaku” in Kamigata Rakugo. In the Edo period, the idea that girls did not need education was deep-rooted, but a good wife. It seems that there were many parents who learned reading and writing, polite manners, and dance to become wise mothers. After learning a lot of culture, it seems that it was ideal to go out to the samurai and merchants for practical learning. It was a narrow gate to get a job as a mansion servant, and his career seems to have become one of the conditions for a ball. He said that he brought all the cooking, washing, sewing work, and even a wedding tool. He was dexterous and couldn’t find any bad points. It is said that the other woman has a wound. She is nineteen years old and is the niece of a doctor in the neighborhood. She has more than ten people and has summer and winter kimonos.) Also appeared. In the past, the production area was located in the fertile and well-drained alluvial soil area along the Motoarakawa River. It was cultivated even after the war, but many of the improved varieties of green onions that look good and last for a long time are distributed and gradually disappear. In 2001, in order to inherit the culture of Iwatsuki, we started an initiative aimed at reviving the illusory Iwatsuki Nagao. Currently, it seems that they are aiming to brand and establish Iwatsuki green onions as part of the town revitalization. Iwatsuki green onion is one of the local vegetables in Saitama prefecture. It is a split green onion with several stems extending from one plant, and its leaves are soft and easy to break and very delicate. It is not very resistant to the cold, but it seems that it is possible to put it to sleep during the winter and use it as a year-end green onion. The texture is very soft and the impression is that it has a strong sweetness. It is easy to eat as a condiment and can be used for a wide range of dishes. A character called “Nema-kun”, which is based on the image of Iwatsuki green onions, has also been designed and appears in Iwatsuki tourism pamphlets. The green onion introduced this time is a general deep-rooted green onion, but Iwatsuki green onion, which is famous as an original brand, is a kind of leaf onion with many green leaves, and it is slightly shorter than general green onions and the white part is shorter. It has become. The white part is medium-thick, the green leaves are thin and the meat is soft. Although it overlaps, it is said that the fertility is stronger than other green onions because it has the property that multiple stems grow from one strain and the number of stems may increase by 10 or more from one strain. The feature is that it is softer than general green onions. It is soft from the white part to the blue leaf part, and you can enjoy it even if you eat it raw as a condiment by taking advantage of this texture. Like ordinary green onions, it has a spicy taste when raw, but it tends to become sweeter when cooked. Although the meat is tender, it does not easily crumble, making it suitable for hot pot dishes. “Iwatsuki Ward, Saitama City, Saitama Prefecture” : Adjacent to the eastern part of Saitama City. Iwatsuki Plateau in the central and northeastern parts of the city: Besides the Jionji plateau-Formed from the flat land along the Ayase River, the Motoarakawa River that flows from north to south. On relatively flat terrain with little elevation difference. About 5 km east-west and about 15 km north-south, almost oblong. The area is 49.16 km2. It is an area blessed with a natural environment such as rivers, green areas on the plateau edge, and homestead woodland. Iwatsuki place name: 1382 in the early Muromachi period : It first appeared as 岩付 in the ancient document Hasegawa-Chikasuke-Chakutojo; 長谷河親資着到状. The current character “Iwatsuki” began to be used in the middle of the Edo period. 槻 is the ancient name of Japanese zelkova（Zelkova serrata (Thunb.) Makino）. This handwriting was applied because it was planted everywhere in earthwork（castle）and town. Large rivers such as the Old-Tonegawa River and Motoarakawa River flowed around the area. Until around the Edo period. It was also an important point for land and water transportation, as the main roads leading to the Tohoku region passed through. It was emphasized as a military base, and iwatsuki castle was built in the latter half of the Muromachi period. When Nikko Toshogu shrine was built and shogun visited nikko started, nikko onari road was maintained. It prospered as a post town, a castle town, and the center of the eastern part of Musashi Province. Around this time, toshogu shrine was built and repaired: The beginning of iwatsuki doll was when the mechanics stopped and worked on the doll maker.1871: Haihan-chiken (the feudal domain system was abolished and the prefectural system was introduced.) The clan was abolished and became Iwatsuki prefecture, and along with Urawa prefecture, became Saitama prefecture. Saitama Prefectural officeーThe prefectural office will be located in Urawa. It was decided to put it in Iwatsuki, but there is no suitable facility. In 1954, Seven Town merged into Iwatsuki City, which continues to this day. Land use: An urban area（Tobu-Noda-Line）with Iwatsuki Station and Higashi-Iwatsuki Station as the core is formed in a belt shape. In urbanization control area（about 80%）, mainly use of agricultural land such as fields. In addition, a countryside centered on rice cultivation has been formed. In 1924, the Bushu Railway between Iwatsuki and Hasuda opened. Afterwards, It was extended to Kamine (Kawaguchi City), but due to poor management, it was repeal in 1938. In 1929, the Sobu Railway Omiya-Kasukabe section was opened. Later merged with Tobu Railway and developed as Tobu-Noda Railway. It is connected to central Tokyo via Omiya and Kasukabe. The road is National Route 16 that crosses east and west: The Tohoku Expressway and National Route 122, which run from north to south, run. An area with high transportation convenience such as the Iwatsuki IC at the intersection. There are many agglomerations of factories and distribution-related business establishments. Around the station, we make use of historical resources and the accumulation of doll shops. Creating a unique and attractive commercial environment: Promoted by the Land readjustment project, which aims to create a comfortable living environment. Opening of the west exit of the station and completed in conjunction with urban development integrated maintenance is planned. Southern area adjacent to the eastern Urawa district: As a new urban area, town development based on Saitama Prefecture’s international amenity town concept is being developed. Realization of a new north-south traffic axis by extending Subway line 7: Centering on planned land use guidance and Iwatsuki station in areas along the railway line: Expected to create liveliness utilizing sightseeing resources（History and dolls）. Shantung cabbage: Selected and trained from Santona greens who came to Japan in the first year of the Meiji era. Cultivation conditions are strict, such as dislike of dusty land, and the yield is low-I hear that it is a phantom vegetable. Although it has been cultivated mainly in Koshigaya and Iwatsuki, its output is decreasing. However, in Saitama, cultivation conditions are in place. “The same vegetables as Kashin-Santosai” used as a raw material for pickles. This product is shipped in the size of Komatsuna（Japanese mustard spinach）because the cultivation period is short. The root part is white and has no habit. It is popular as a vegetable that can be used in various ways such as Miso soup ingredients, a side dish of boiled Shantung cabbage seasoned with soy sauce（and fish stock）, and pickles. Cultivated throughout the year in Iwatsuki Ward, Saitama City. If you find one at a retail store, please give it a try. Even in the Meiji era, the Minamisaitama District Office was set up, and it continued to be the political and economic center of eastern Saitama Prefecture, and town development was actively carried out. In 1954, Iwatsuki Town, Kawadori Village, Kashiwazaki Village, Wado Village, Niiwa Village, Jionji Village, and Kawai Village merged to form Iwatsuki City. Then, on April 1, 2005, the merger of Saitama City and Iwatsuki City created “Iwatsuki Ward” as the tenth ward of Saitama City. Shandong Vegetable is a member of the cruciferous family that closely resembles Chinese cabbage. Also, unlike hakusai, it does not form a complete ball, and when viewed from above, it looks like a leaf button, which is impressive. In addition, although it is a harvest, it is six or seven times a year. The peak season is spring and autumn from April to May and from October to November. On the other hand, “Center of a flower Shandong Vegetable”, which is cultivated for New Year’s pickles, is also one kind. It is one size larger than Chinese cabbage, and in Koshigaya City, Saitama Prefecture, about 46 tons are shipped by a dozen farmers. Koshigaya City is located in the southeastern part of Saitama Prefecture, within 25 km from central Tokyo. With a population of approximately 340,000, it ranks fourth among the prefecture’s 63 municipalities (as of December 1, 2021). It seems that it continues to develop as a commuter town in the suburbs of Tokyo with the vision of the future as “a safe, secure, symbiotic city blessed with water, greenery, and the sun, where everyone can play an active role.” With an area of 60.24 square kilometers (8.6 kilometers east-west and 11.5 kilometers north-south), it has excellent access to railways and highways running north-south and east-west of the city. The terrain is generally flat, making life on a bicycle convenient. While each train station is surrounded by residential and commercial areas, the surrounding area is also surrounded by idyllic countryside. Higashi Saitama Resources and Environment Association located in the eastern part of the city (Location: Mashibayashi, Koshigaya City, Reuse: Partial office work organized by 5 cities and 1 town (Koshigaya City, Soka City, Yashio City, Misato City, Yoshikawa City, Matsubushi Town) The cooperative treats general waste (combustible waste and night soil) within its jurisdiction. From the 80-meter-high observatory, you can get a panoramic view of the city, and on a clear day you can even see Tokyo Skytree and Mt. Fuji. Seems to be able to see. About 4000 to 5000 years ago, during the late Jomon period, the land up to the contour line of about 10 meters including Koshigaya was in the sea. About 3,000 years ago, the earth’s temperature dropped to its current level, and the ocean receded. It seems that people moved from the hills and plateaus to alluvial land suitable for rice cultivation, set up villages on the natural embankments, and started farming. Under these circumstances, people began to settle in Koshigaya because the ruins of pit dwellings were discovered in the Mita area of the Osagami district, and many pottery, ornaments, and fir trees were unearthed. Presumed to be ancient. After that, countries and counties were established by the Yamato Imperial Court, and at that time, Koshigaya was divided into Musashi and Shimousa provinces along the Motoarakawa River, and Saitama and Adachi counties of Musashi Province along the Ayase River. In the latter half of the 6th century, a settlement was built in Mitakata (now Taisei Town), and people began to live there. In the rich land surrounded by many rivers, he lived by growing rice and vegetables. In the Edo period, it prospered as a post town along the highway to Nikko. Ieyasu Tokugawa called the Koshigaya Palace (established in 1604) in Goten Town, Genzai. It is said that Ieyasu moved the Ochaya Palace from Mashibayashi to the place where the jinya of Aida-Dewa, a local wealthy, used to be. There are records that Ieyasu, Hidetada, and others often visited and stayed there for falconry. After that, Edo Castle was destroyed by the great fire of Edo in 1657, so it was moved to Edo Castle outer citadel as a temporary residence for the shogun. The site was developed as a farmland and continues to this day.Designated October 1972. Designated as a city-designated cultural property (monument / historic site) on the 25th of the month). When the members of the shogun family came to Koshigaya for hunting, it seems that they used it to take a rest. In addition, rice and vegetables grown in Koshigaya seem to have been shipped in large quantities from the river to Edo and elsewhere. In 1899, steam locomotives began to run through Koshigaya. With the opening of the Tobu Railway from Senju to Kuki, stations were built in Koshigaya (the location of the present-day Kita-Koshigaya Station) and Gamo. Electricity was turned on in Koshigaya and Osawa in 1913, and modernization progressed little by little, but many people lived mainly on agriculture, inheriting local industries such as Dharma, paulownia chests, and hina dolls. seems to have been. Then, in November 1954, two towns (Koshigaya Town and Osawa Town) and eight villages (Sakurai Village, Niigata Village, Mashibayashi Village, Obukuro Village, Ogishima Village, Dewa Village, Gamo Village, and Osagami Village) merged. In November 1955, part of Kawayanagi Village, which was located next to Soka Town, became Koshigaya Town, and Koshigaya City became what it is today. Regarding agriculture, on November 20th, 2015, a group of Koshigaya green onion producers, “Koshigaya Green Onion artisan association,” was established to promote the formation of production areas. “Takumi no Kai” is the quality of “Koshigaya green onion” as a special product of Koshigaya City. To increase national recognition and increase consumption. With the aim of It seems that they are conducting PR activities aimed at improving their cargo and name recognition. In particular, in order to gain national recognition, all Every year, we also exhibit at the “National Green Onion Summit” where the country’s green onion production areas gather together. In addition, regarding products whose characteristics such as high quality and social evaluation are associated with the place of origin, the name of the product is protected as intellectual property by the government, and registration of 12 is also being implemented. It is aimed at, and it seems that it is expected as a measure for branding “Koshigaya green onion”. In fiscal 2013, eight strawberry cultivation greenhouses were constructed with the cooperation of landowners. From July 2014, these facilities will be used by four strawberry producers. In January 2015, “Koshigaya Strawberry Town” opened with a cultivation area of 10,000 m2. It is managed by the Koshigaya Strawberry Complex Production Association, which is organized by four producers. It opened before the epidemic, and in the 2018 season, the fourth year, it seems that there were more than 35,000 visitors. Also, near the city center, you can always eat several kinds of food. It is popular because you can enjoy comparison. According to the Hometown tax, the most popular return item in the city seems to be cooking oil, which continues to rise in price. According to a survey by Japan’s Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, the retail price of cooking oil in Tokyo’s 23 wards appears to have risen by about 40% over the past year. According to a retail price survey, the price of cooking oil in the 23 wards of Tokyo rose from 349 japanese yen last year to 500 japanese yen this year. I hear that a company that manufactures “rice bran oil,” a cooking oil made from domestic rice bran, is flooded with applications this year compared to last year. Yoshitoshi Tokugawa is a military man who contributed to the development of Japan’s aviation field from the Meiji era to the Showa era. He was born as the eldest son of Atsumori Tokugawa, the 7th head of the Shimizu Tokugawa family of Gosankyo Tokugawa. After studying at the elementary and junior high schools attached to the Higher Normal School (currently the elementary and junior high schools attached to Tsukuba), he became a captain of the Army Engineer in 1909 after attending the Imperial Japanese Army Academy. The following year, in 1910, Yoshitoshi was sent to France for specialized education by ordering the Army to acquire maneuvering skills with Ensign Hino Kumazo Infantry and to purchase the aircraft. At that time, the development of aircraft was remarkable in Europe, so the arrow of white feathers struck. He returned to Japan after becoming the first Japanese pilot. On December 19, the same year, at Yoyogi Training Ground (currently Yoyogi Park), Japan’s first aircraft-powered flight (altitude of about 70 meters, distance of about 3000 meters) was driven by Kaishiki No. 1 (Henri Farman biplane). success. At the Army Tokorozawa Airfield (currently Tokorozawa Aviation Memorial Park), Japan’s first aircraft-only airfield completed in 1911, an exhibition flight is being held to commemorate its completion. After that, he continued to walk in the aviation field, and after the aviation department became independent, he changed from the engineering department and focused on training younger generations. Although he left active duty for a while, he was the head of the Imperial Japanese Army Air Academy at the end of the war. His final rank is Lieutenant General of the Army, and in 1928 he was awarded the Baron’s title for his many years of achievement. Kumazo Hino is a military and aviation engineer who was active from the Meiji era to the Showa era. He was born in Kumamoto prefecture in 1878 as a child of the former Sagara clan, and grew up to go to the Imperial Japanese Army Academy. After graduating, he belongs to the Army Infantry Department and seems to be involved in weapons research at the Technical Examination Department. In 1910, he studied at “Henri Farman” Flight School Etampes in France with Captain Yoshitoshi, but the purchase of the aircraft was unsuccessful, and Kumazo negotiated with Germany alone to purchase a grade monoplane and returned to Japan. On December 19, the same year, Kumazo and Yoshitoshi challenge Japan’s first powered flight. His aircraft is a grade monoplane that he bought himself, and it is a compact aircraft with half the weight and engine output of “Henri Farman” (the cockpit is also used as an landing wheel rack and is suspended directly under the main wing, and it is in a low position just above the ground.) Fly a distance of about 1000 meters. It seems that he was applauded by the audience, which was said to be over 100,000. After that, he focused on the field of technology development such as developing Hino-style airplanes by his own design, and in addition to aircraft-related technologies such as control equipment, he also obtained patents for firearm design represented by Hino-style pistol. leave. His final rank is Lieutenant Colonel Infantry, and after his retirement he has been challenging technological development in the fight against his poverty and his own illness. 10 years number of clear days from 2009 to 2018-In total, it has 567 days and is the number one in Japan. 170 km-Japan’s longest cycling road runs along the river and The ratio of terrain area with gentle slope is the highest in Japan.

December is the best time to eat.
Saitama Prefecture borders Ibaraki and Chiba to the east, Nagano and Yamanashi to the west, Tokyo to the south, and Gunma and Tochigi to the north. The topography is divided into the mountains and hills in the western part of the prefecture and the plains consisting of plateaus and lowlands from the central part to the eastern part of the prefecture. The eastern flatlands are further divided into the plateau in the central part of the prefecture and the lowlands in the eastern part of the prefecture. Flat land accounts for about 61% of the total land area, which is a high percentage in Japan. The mountainous region in the western part of the prefecture belongs to the Kanto Mountains, which extends to the west of the Kanto Plain, and is also called the Chichibu Mountains. There are steep mountains over 2000 m high, such as Mt. Sanpo (2483 m above sea level), Mt. Kobushigatake (2475 m above sea level), and Mt. Kumotori (2017 m above sea level), which are the highest peaks in Saitama Prefecture. There is a mountain basin near the west center of the prefecture, which is called the Chichibu Basin. The elevation gradually decreases toward the east, passing through the foothills and reaching the plateaus and hills in the center of the prefecture. The central plateau and hills of the prefecture extend from the northern edge of the Musashino plateau in the southern part of the prefecture to the Iruma plateau along the rim of the mountain foot, Iwadono hills (a hill that protrudes like a peninsula from the Kanto mountain range between the Tokigawa and Koshibe rivers), and the Hiki hills. , and the North Musashi plateau. The Omiya plateau is located in the eastern part of the prefecture. The Omiya plateau is surrounded by the Arakawa lowland to the west, the Nakagawa lowland to the east, and the Menuma lowland and Kazo lowland (middle-stream Tonegawa lowland) to the north. The Menuma lowland is mainly gravel. The Arakawa and Nakagawa basins are mainly muddy alluvial lowlands. In the Kazo lowland, which is located roughly in the middle of these, alluvium containing peaty black mud is deposited thickly on the upper part of the gravel layer, forming a low swamp. The lowlands in the eastern part of the prefecture, also known as the Saitama Plain, used to be part of Tokyo Bay in the old days. seems to be an important issue. On the other hand, these two major rivers bring abundant irrigation water, and it seems that many agricultural water networks such as Minuma substitute irrigation water and Kasai irrigation water remain in the prefecture.
