Area cultivated with Komatsuna (by prefecture).
Looking at the data on the planted area of leafy vegetables in Japan in 2022, Ibaraki Prefecture recorded the largest area overall at 1.37kha, which is currently the largest value. Ibaraki Prefecture is an important agricultural region in Japan and plays a major role in the cultivation of leafy vegetables. In general, Ibaraki Prefecture has climatic and soil conditions suitable for growing leafy vegetables, providing an ideal environment for agricultural production. Therefore, it is only natural that the area planted to leafy vegetables is the largest nationwide. Leafy vegetable cultivation is also carried out in other prefectures, but not on the same scale as Ibaraki Prefecture. This reflects differences in agricultural characteristics and demand from region to region. For example, cultivation of leafy vegetables is popular in Hokkaido and Tochigi Prefecture, but on a smaller scale than in Ibaraki Prefecture. Generally speaking, the area of land cultivated with leafy vegetables in Japan varies by region, but they are mainly cultivated in Ibaraki Prefecture. It can be said that Ibaraki Prefecture’s leadership and technical capabilities in agricultural production play a major role in the cultivation of leafy vegetable crops in this region.
