*Due to COVID19, a lot of restaurants, Ryokans, and school meals are absent.

And there are lots of rice inventories in rice shops.

Our company’s sales also decrease because of this reason.

When you use “Go to Travel” campaign, please buy local rice and Japanese sake as souvenir.

In order to produce eatable rice and sake rice next year, please eat rice and drink Japanese sake.
