Due to the impact of Typhoon No. 19, in Otsuchi Bay, Otsuchi-cho, Iwate Prefecture, damage has been confirmed one after another in aquaculture facilities such as special oysters and scallops, and local fishermen are calling for assistance for restoration. .

In Otsuchi Bay, which spans Kamaishi City and Otsuchi Town, aquaculture of oysters and scallops is popular.

Of these, in Otsuchi-cho Bay, typhoon No. 19 caused typhoons and scallops to attach to the rope, and the ropes entangled with other shelves and scallop shelves in the sea. The damage to be confirmed was confirmed.

At Yosuke Kurosawa (29), the oysters collided with each other, and the oysters fell from the ropes, and about 70% of the items planned to be shipped next year were damaged.

In the future, local fishermen's cooperatives will ask the towns for assistance after conducting a survey of damage.

Kurosawa says, “There is almost no income next year. We don't know whether we can get insurance, we have to do all the removal and restoration by ourselves. "
