Summer/autumn cabbage has been number one in Japan for the 54th consecutive year.

The shipping volume of summer/autumn cabbage produced in Gunma Prefecture will be 223,600 tons in 2023,
which has been number one in the nation for 54 consecutive years since 1970.

The increase is said to be due to favorable weather and smooth growth.
Taking advantage of the cool climate, high-quality cabbage is produced in the northern part of the prefecture, such as Tsumagoi Village,
and since 2009, shipping volumes have exceeded 200,000 tons,
accounting for approximately half of the domestic shipping volume, and it is not limited to the Tokyo metropolitan area but is spreading throughout the country.
