Following up this article..3,100Bq/Kg from field mouse in Kawauchi mura Fukushima

In Kamauchi mura, where they measured 3,100Bq/kg of cesium from field mouse and the atmospheric dose is 3.11μSv/h, 50 of volunteers from Tokyo area planted rice.

Kawauchi mura has been restraining rice planting since last year. From looking at the result of this test harvesting, they will restart rice planting next year.

They had the volunteers plant in 30 of 10 ares rice fields with different amount of minerals to absorb radiation, in different depth. They don’t plan to distribute the harvested rice.

東京電力福島第1原発事故で昨年、政府がコメの作付けを全域で制限した福島県川内村で13日、試験田への作付けが始まった。村商工会などが呼びかけ、首都圏から訪れた家族連れのボランティアら約50人が泥に足をとられながら、昔ながらの手植えを楽しんだ。
今年も村は独自判断で作付けを自粛。試験栽培の結果を踏まえて来年以降の本格的な作付け再開を目指す。試験ほ場で計30枚の水田に10アールずつ順次作付けし、放射性物質を吸着する鉱物の散布量や耕す深さを変えて栽培。収穫後のコメは流通させず放射性セシウムを検出するかを調べる。
神奈川県藤沢市の大学4年生、小宮明子さん(22)は「風評被害が広まる中、現地で自分の目で見て、安全を信じたい。前を向いて頑張る人を応援したい」と話した。昨年も作付けを行ったコメ農家、秋元美誉(よしたか)さん(69)は「試験田でも農業再生の第一歩。すぐ売れなくても、地道に消費者に理解される活動を続けたい」と語った。【深津誠】

 

 

About this site

This website updates the latest news about the Fukushima nuclear plant and also archives the past news from 2011. Because it's always updated and added live, articles, categories and the tags are not necessarily fitted in the latest format.
I am the writer of this website. About page remains in 2014. This is because my memory about 311 was clearer than now, 2023, and I think it can have a historical value. Now I'm living in Romania with 3 cats as an independent data scientist.
Actually, nothing has progressed in the plant since 2011. We still don't even know what is going on inside. They must keep cooling the crippled reactors by water, but additionally groundwater keeps flowing into the reactor buildings from the broken parts. This is why highly contaminated water is always produced more than it can circulate. Tepco is planning to officially discharge this water to the Pacific but Tritium is still remaining in it. They dilute this with seawater so that it is legally safe, but scientifically the same amount of radioactive tritium is contained. They say it is safe to discharge, but none of them have drunk it.
