A briefing on the objectives of the activity was given by Associate Professor Kitagawa (Environmental Management Department, Faculty of Agriculture, Kindai University), which was followed by a tour to the mini satoyama aquarium run by the students. Although the aquarium was small in scale, the participating children stared intriguingly at the fish tanks and got really excited when they touched the turtles. They also listened attentively whenever Associate Professor Kitagawa started to explain the different types of fish.

After touring the aquarium, the participants were divided into two groups to carry out rice planting and plant trimming respectively.
Rice planting was done mainly by the participating children and university students under the guidance of the latter. They divided the field using ropes for young rice plants to be planted at an equal distance of 30cm away from one another.

Children who stepped into a rice field for the first time with their bare feet did so very cautiously at first, perhaps because of the feel of the mud. However, after getting used to it, they were able to focus on the planting activity despite getting muddy.

Trimming of grass and plants was carried out mainly by the male participants.
According to Associate Professor Kitagawa, wild boars tend to appear in 라이브 카지노uin village forests when overgrown bushes and trees are left unattended, but they do not seem to step foot into areas that are well maintained.

So, in order to protect the village forest, the male participants were mainly assigned to either trim grass and plants with a height of 50cm using a sickle, or cut those that were close to 2m (kuma bamboo grass, etc.) using one of the four grass cutters.

Thanks to the hard work of the participants who were drenched in sweat under the sunny weather, the area transformed into a clean place in about two hours. Also, light was able to penetrate through and brighten up the areas around the pond, which was dark prior to the activity.
We believe that this activity has offered a valuable experience to children who rarely have the opportunity to interact with nature in their everyday life.

Future activities that are scheduled include scarecrow making in August 라이브 카지노ice harvesting in October.
