お米の紹介
3種類の希少なお米
the rice farmでは、日本で５生産者しか生産していないカミアカリ等の希少なお米を、肥料や農薬を一切つかわない自然栽培という方法で生産しています。いわば、場所・品種・栽培方法を徹底的にこだわっているのがthe rice farmです。
At the rice farm, rare varieties such as Kami Akari, which is cultivated by just 5 producers in Japan, are grown with natural techniques using no fertilizer or agricultural chemicals whatsoever.
In other words, the place, rice varieties, and cultivation methods are also carefully selected with thorough attention to detail at the rice farm.
カミアカリ
通常の米よりも３倍大きい胚芽をもつ玄米食専門品種。「一粒で３倍の栄養素（ビタミンB、ビタミンE、食物繊維、GABA等）がとれる」が特徴の高機能米で、玄米なのにさっぱりとした食味で高い評価を得ている。1988年に静岡県の稲作農家松下明弘氏が偶然発見したコシヒカリの突然変異種で、2019年現在国内で５農家しか生産が許されていない希少品種。
Hase, Ina, Nagano―――In this mountain village with a population of approximately 1,700, a series of well-maintained terraced rice fields stretches out before your eyes, and if you climb to the top, you can take in a majestic view of the southern alps mountain range and the emerald green of Lake Miwa. There are no houses or farmlands above the terraced rice fields, and the pure water from the melting snow of the southern alps flows directly into them.
