投稿の詳細: 無農薬　無化学肥料栽培　No chemicals in the farm

今日長野で赤木勝人さんの
講演会があったので行ってきた。
循環農法という考え方で
無農薬、無化学肥料で野菜を
12ヘクタールも栽培している
という。

入場料1,000円（当日券1,500円）で
あったが、先月の入場無料の、
グリーンツーリズム講演会・シンポジウム
より聴衆の数は多かったように思う。

参加者は農業関係よりは、自然派有機派の
消費者プラス、アトピー等のアレルギーで
悩んでいます系の人が多かったかな。

赤城さんの作った野菜と玄米、それに
塩（自然塩）による食事療法で
アトピーが治ったという実績が多数
あるようなのだ。

お話は興味深く、また共感する部分が
多かった。青森の木村さんとも通じる
ものを感じた。いづれも土の中のことを
大変真剣に考えている。

私も出来ればそうしたいと思っているのだが、
まだまだ確信が持てないのだ。ただ、大分
元気づけれられた。九州でも土に注目して
葡萄を栽培し優秀なワインを造っている
ワイナリーが出ているし。

今年も殺虫剤は使わず、また殺菌剤も
何とか工夫してできるだけ使わないように
考えていこう。

I attended a lecture by Katsuto Akagi
in Nagano city. He calls it circulatory
agriculture using no chemical spray
or sythesized fertilizers and grow vegetables in his
12ha farm.

The adimission fee was 1000yen (advance sale)
or 1500yen but the number of audiences seemed
more than that of the Green Tourism lecture and
symposium of which admission was free.

The people there seemed more natural or
organic food consumers or those suffering from
alergic diseases than the farmers.
That is because the number of examples whereby
the patinets recovered from their diseases
by eathing his produces and followed his
dietary instructions. He recommends to eat
sound vegetables and brwon rice with
natural salt.

The lecture was interesting and ispiring
which synchronized with my thoughts. And
I felt there were many common ideas with
Mr. Kimura's thoughts on his miracle apple
growing. Both take into considerations
what is happening in the ground very
seriously.

I have been thinking it a good idea
if I was able to grow grapes without
chemicals input in the vineyards but
I was not fully convinced and do not
know what to do yet. However, what
Mr. Akagi talked today and what I read
in Mr. Kimura's writing are really
encouraging. I know there are people
in Kyushu to take care of the soil
and grow winegrapes leading to high
quality wines.

I will try not to use pesticides in
my vineyards this year again and
also try not to use sterlirizers
as much as possible.
