Let's learn about Kokusho Kokusan with Nogizaka 46!
The food consumed in Japan is produced in Japan as much as possible.
It is called Kokusho Kokusan.
The current Japanese food supply is 38% calorie- based.
It depends on about 60% import.
If there are fewer rice fields and fields in Japan,
and if the import from overseas is limited due to disasters,
we may not have enough food to eat.
In this program, we will report on the local food,
and where and how it is made.
The members of the JA group, Nogizaka 46,
will report on the local food.
Last time, at JA Saga's training farm, which trains new farmers,
Shibata and Matsuo had a day-to-day training experience as 7th generation of cucumbers.
They received a lot of dreams and hopes in the form of trainees who are passionate about the cultivation technology that includes technology.
This time, we will graduate from the training farm and visit a young farmer who stands alone.
They found a house in the rice paddies.
Hello, I'm Yuna Shibata from Nogizaka 46.
I'm Miyu Matsuo. Nice to meet you.
Hello, I'm Miki Matsuo. Nice to meet you.
We have the same last name.
We just went to the training farm for a little bit of training.
Matsuo is also a graduate of the training farm, right?
That's right. I finished my training farm two years ago and now I'm independent and run this house as an owner.
I hope to hear stories about how you graduated from the training farm and became independent.
Nice to meet you.
Miki Matsuo, a young cucumber farmer who had just opened her own business two years ago, greeted us.
I currently run a farm with 5 employees.
Then let me ask you a question right away
First of all, what kind of work did you do before you became a farmer?
About three years at an agricultural corporation in Nagasaki Prefecture
Well, I'm doing a job like making seedlings.
Seedling making is amazing
Why did you become a cucumber farmer?
My house was originally well
since my grandfather
I'm a farmer
Well, while going to an agricultural corporation
Own
When we talked about making it convenient after home,
Recruitment for daily life at the training farm had just started, so it was a good opportunity.
I thought about learning cucumbers from scratch
I think it costs money to go to a normal school.
Do you understand the tuition fees for going to a training farm?
No, we don't have to pay any tuition fees that we have to pay ourselves.
Is that so
It's still a little hot inside, but since you've come all the way would you like to take a look?
To do
here is my
It will be a supplement for cucumbers
It's very long from north to south, but it's about 22.5 ares.
It's going to be a Saim Lebo mist device.
What's in our house is much finer than the one at the training farm.
You can create a good environment for cucumbers
First of all, the equipment is slightly different.
Using what I learned at the training farm
I'm making cucumbers for the amazing Mr. Matsuo
That's right after all
Well, everyone is learning on the same machine, but the equipment in each house.
That means each
After all, there are people who say this is good.
It means that you are using it well.
And Shibata and Matsuo were given the opportunity to experience picking cucumbers.
It's actually harvested in the morning, but I left some cucumbers .
If you don't mind, you can experience harvesting
Um
Originally, um
In the morning, you're a little thinner, aren't you? In just half a day, you'll gain this much weight.
Winter and summer are completely different
That's one of the reasons why we have to harvest early in the morning.
I'll give it a try then
This is the index finger
Well, if you could support me, then I'd put that cutter straight away.
wow
this is good
got it
cucumber
Oh, it's got flowers, is it fresh?
I got a cucumber that looks fresh
I'll take it then
Then here
with the index finger
go
I got it
Hehehe
done guys
Something
It has thorns, but if you touch it once
Because the thorns are already gone
This girl is still fresh because she's still pounding
n/a
Two people who finished picking cucumbers
I asked him to show me the device that controls the temperature and humidity of the greenhouse.
This opportunity was just at the training farm
I was allowed to take a look, but with this, various management is done , isn't it?
That's right, this device controls all temperature, humidity, and water.
Well, as dataization and automation progresses in this way, it becomes possible to harvest without doing much work at all.
Will you be able to do it?
Well, everyone tends to think so, but after all
Plants are the other party, so after all, it's up to the human eye and judgment.
The first thing is, well, after that, make full use of this kind of device.
control the environment
It's about skillfully increasing production volume, isn't it?
Then after all it's a human body
The important thing is affection, isn't it?
love is important
Cultivated at a training farm
State-of-the-art technology and a deep love for cucumbers are the secret of Mr. Matsuo's cucumber cultivation.
Mr. Matsuo says that he had an experience that encouraged him to continue farming.
The house here in the construction stage
There were quite a few people who were interested and came.
No way that woman
It seems that no one thought that they were doing it.
Farming from now on by young children
They'll pull you in, and you'll spend money like this
oh dear
People who say let's do our best
You said it was amazing that you are happy that the number is increasing.
Thank you very much for today.
If you don't mind, please eat it. Thank you.
Yeah, it sounded great.
sweet
I really like sweet cucumbers, but I always end up dipping them in miso.
You can go with sweetness Thank you very much
Let's eat
That's a good sound.
It's crunchy.
It's delicious.
It's so different when it's freshly picked.
It's totally different.
It's delicious.
When I actually eat the cucumbers that I harvested by myself,
I can feel that it's very domestic.
Thank you very much.
This time, I visited Matsuo's facility.
I saw what I saw and heard at the training farm earlier.
I actually met Matsuo's facility here.
Was it good that you actually went to the training farm?
That's right.
When I thought about starting farming,
I thought about it easily.
I learned knowledge and technology from scratch.
Two years later, I became independent.
It's the shortest way to make a living.
The most important thing is that I made friends.
Even after I became independent,
I started my own study group.
That's amazing.
So I didn't just stay at the training farm.
We're all in the same generation, but we're all the same owners.
It's a great strength to be facing the same direction.
It's great to have friends.
That's right.
Do you have any dreams as a cucumber farmer?
As you can see, there's only my house around here.
I'm building a three-story house.
There are no people like this.
The farmers who don't come after me are in trouble.
I want them to build a foundation here.
If the children below me do their best,
I want them to think that they can do it even if it's not a three-story house.
That's great.
It's good for everyone in the future.
That's right.
Can I ask you to send a message to those who are thinking of starting farming?
I think the first step is to want to try farming.
After that, there are various supports from the government and JA.
If you want to try it, there are many places you can rely on.
If you take one more step forward,
I think that person's dream will spread.
If you send a lot of messages, the number of farmers will increase.
I want more people to know that.
You did a lot of things today. What did you think?
The reason why young farmers like Matsuo are increasing is
I learned for the first time that there are various back-ups from the government and JA.
There is a training farm.
Even if you don't know anything,
I found that it would be easier for people to start farming.
We would like to try farming again through this experience.
Thank you very much for today.
Thank you very much.
The food we eat in our own country is made in our own country as much as possible.

Minami Umezawa, who loves fruits, gives a quiz about small domestic
We are sending out useful information.
