[About rice in Sanjo City]
Sanjo City is located almost in the center of Niigata Prefecture and has rich soil nurtured by Japan’s largest river, the Shinano River, and its tributary, the Igarashi River.
In addition, the snow that piles up in the winter turns into mineral-rich snowmelt, moistening the rice fields and growing delicious rice.
In particular, the Shimoda area of Sanjo City (former Shimoda Village) is a mountainous area surrounded by Mt. Morikado and Mt. The harsh natural environment and abundant snowmelt water nurture rice that rivals Uonuma and Iwafune, which are well-known production areas in Niigata Prefecture.
I will introduce some of the regular flight courses.
