"Circular agriculture", a traditional agricultural system that has been practiced in Minami Awaji City for over 100 years and is certified as a Japanese agricultural heritage, is an advanced production circulation system unique to Awaji Island that combines rice, onions, and cattle breeding. This is an SDGs experience tour where you can visit spots that are full of the characteristics of this region, such as onion huts, long-house gates, and reservoirs, and experience the secret of the deliciousness of onions through an actual onion harvesting experience. "Circular agriculture", a traditional agricultural system that has been practiced in Minami Awaji City for over 100 years, is a production circulation system unique to Awaji Island that combines rice, onions, and cattle breeding, and was certified as a Japanese agricultural heritage in 2020. In order to make effective use of limited farmland, rice and onions are grown alternately in the same place as "double cropping", but if this is repeated, the soil will eventually lose nutrients. That's where cow manure becomes a miracle cure. The rice straw produced by rice cultivation becomes cow feed and creates nutritious cow manure. This mutual support with the livestock industry keeps the farmland fertile and produces delicious, sweet onions. On this tour, you can actually harvest the delicious onions grown under this system while interacting with local residents. Afterwards, you will have the chance to try tasting sliced onions with onion dressing to really experience the sweetness of the onions you harvested! In addition, an official guide from Minami Awaji City will take you to spots packed with the characteristics of the region, such as the "nagayamon" house structure used by livestock farmers that supports this "recycling agriculture," the "onion hut" that was designed as a drying facility suited to the climate of Awaji Island, and the "irrigation ponds" that are the most densely populated in Japan as a solution to the water shortage that has long been a problem on the island. Make the most of what you can use, and continue to produce good things without waste. Experience the prototype of the SDGs that has been around for over 100 years. Experience Schedule Schedule Example (for a 10:00 start) 10:00 Meet at the parking lot (next to Oji Shrine, Kasumigo, Minami Awaji City) 10:00-10:40 Explanation of the Japanese Agricultural Heritage "Recycling Agriculture", tour of the surrounding area (visit the onion shed and cowshed while enjoying the scenery surrounded by nature) 10:40-11:20 Explanation of Awaji Island onions, onion harvesting experience 11:20-12:00 Tasting of freshly harvested onions (sliced or steamed whole), freshly squeezed milk ice cream
