Abstract
In Japan’s chive cultivation, based on 2022 data, the national yield is the highest at 54.3kt and the cultivated area is the highest at 1.89kha. In terms of shipment volume, Kochi recorded the maximum shipment at 13.8kt. This indicates that Chinese chives are an important leafy vegetable in Japanese agriculture. There are also regional differences, with Kochi leading the way in terms of shipments. It is also possible that production areas are concentrated in order to meet demand. The demand for chives is high, and there are areas suitable for cultivation. These data will be important indicators for exploring the possibility of expanding and streamlining chive cultivation.
Leek harvest volume (main data).
The chive harvest in Japan has fluctuated between 2002 and 2022, with the peak recorded in 2009 at 66.7kt nationwide. Since then, harvest volumes have declined and are currently at 81.4% of their peak. This trend suggests that there are factors influencing chive demand and production. For example, changes in climatic conditions, agricultural techniques, and consumption patterns may play a role. Additionally, production volumes are declining compared to peak periods, which could be shifting the balance between supply and demand. This data will be an important reference for chive cultivation and demand forecasting. In the future, fluctuations in yields may be further influenced by changes in demand and advances in production technology.
The maximum is 66.7kt[2009] of Japan, and the current value is about 81.4%
Garlic chive harvest volume (by prefecture).
The 2022 leafy vegetable harvest volume in Japan was surveyed by prefecture. As a result, the overall maximum yield was 14.3kt in Kochi, which is the current maximum. From this data it is clear that Kochi is leading in the production of leafy vegetable crops. Kochi Prefecture is blessed with favorable climatic conditions and agricultural technology, making it suitable for cultivating leafy vegetables. Additionally, Kochi’s harvest volume stands out compared to other regions, suggesting that each region has its own characteristics and competitiveness. There is a high demand for leafy vegetables and Kochi prefecture is catering to that demand, which could be contributing to an increase in production. This data is important information for understanding the characteristics of agricultural production and demand trends in each region. In the future, it will be important to pay attention to developments in agricultural policies and technology in the region, including Kochi Prefecture, and to observe how leafy vegetable production volumes change.
The maximum is 14.3kt of Kochi, the average is 1.21kt, and the total is 54.3kt
Area cultivated with chives (main data).
The area of chive cultivation in Japan has fluctuated between 2002 and 2022, reaching a maximum of 2.26 kha nationwide in 2009. However, the current cultivated area is only 83.6% of its peak level. This suggests that the area cultivated with chives has decreased slightly from its peak. Several factors influence this variation. For example, changes in demand, changes in agricultural policies, and fluctuations in production costs. Additionally, there are differences in the changes in cultivated area by region, which may be influenced by regional characteristics and changes in demand. Chinese chives are an important vegetable that is deeply rooted in Japanese food culture, and demand appears to be maintained at a certain level, but there are certain fluctuations in production. In the future, attention will be needed to trends in demand and developments in production technology, and efforts will be needed to promote sustainable chive cultivation.
The maximum is 2.26kha[2009] of Japan, and the current value is about 83.6%
Area cultivated with chives (by prefecture).
The cultivated area of leafy vegetables in Japan in 2022 was surveyed by prefecture. As a result, the largest total cultivated area was 314 hectares in Tochigi Prefecture, which is the current maximum value. From this data, it is clear that Tochigi Prefecture is leading in terms of cultivated area of leafy vegetables. Tochigi Prefecture has suitable climate conditions and soil, making it ideal for producing leafy vegetable crops. Additionally, compared to other regions, Tochigi Prefecture’s cultivated area stands out, suggesting that each region has its own characteristics and competitiveness. Leafy vegetables are essential to Japanese food culture, and it appears that demand for them remains at a certain level. The increase in cultivated area in Tochigi Prefecture is also related to developments in local agricultural policies and technology. In the future, it will be important to ensure the sustainable development of agriculture in the region, including Tochigi Prefecture, and to maintain cultivated area appropriate to demand.
The maximum is 314ha of Tochigi, the average is 42.1ha, and the total is 1.89kha
The volume of chives shipped.
In 2022, the largest overall shipment of chives in Japan was in Kochi Prefecture at 13.8kt, with an average of 1.11kt and a total of 49.8kt. From this data, it is clear that Kochi Prefecture is leading in terms of chive shipments. Kochi Prefecture is blessed with favorable climatic conditions and agricultural technology, making it suitable for cultivating chives. Additionally, with the overall average shipping volume being 1.11kt, we can see that Kochi Prefecture’s shipping volume is significantly higher than the average. Garlic chives are an essential vegetable in Japanese food culture, and demand for them appears to be stable. Kochi Prefecture’s increase in shipping volumes is also linked to developments in regional agricultural policies and technology. Additionally, Kochi Prefecture’s shipping volume stands out compared to other regions, suggesting that each region has its own characteristics and competitiveness. In the future, it will be important to ensure the sustainable development of agriculture in the region, including Kochi Prefecture, and to maintain shipping volumes in line with demand.
The maximum is 13.8kt of Kochi, the average is 1.11kt, and the total is 49.8kt
