The impact of Typhoon No. 15 that passed through the Tokyo metropolitan area on March 9 has also affected the harvest and shipment of “Kamakura vegetables,” a famous brand vegetable in Kamakura City, Kanagawa Prefecture.
In the field of Shutaro Fukuda in Sekiya, Kamakura City, over 50 kinds of vegetables are grown during this period and are popular as “Kamakura vegetables”.
Among them, the colorful bell peppers and eggplants that were in the harvest season were broken due to strong typhoon winds, dropped or damaged, and were not sold and could not be shipped.
In addition, Komatsuna, Arugula, etc. are severely damaged due to strong rain and wind, and their leaves are torn and perforated.
In the glass house where Mr. Ichiro Ochiai raised cucumbers and tomatoes in the neighborhood, about 30 pieces of 1-meter-70 cm long roof glass was broken and scattered in the fields. On the 10th, Ochiai picked up broken glass pieces and removed them from the field.
Mr. Ochiai said, “The damage of the wind has been unprecedented. I think it will take at least 10 days to clear everything,” and was concerned about the impact on the harvesting work.
