@kobayashi-nakamura
This is the story of a parent and child raising rare Japanese beef, "Kumamoto Akaushi," in Ubuyama Village, Aso County, Kumamoto Prefecture. Father Nobuyuki I (88) has been working with Akaushi for 70 years! He has adopted grazing and has raised cattle on 100% local, domestic feed. He has also been working on recycling animal husbandry for a long time. The cows they raise are constantly ordered by famous chefs. He is a legendary Akaushi farmer who continues to pursue "red meat" in an era when marbled meat is valued. However, in recent years, there has been a shortage of successors due to depopulation and aging. Conversion to the Japanese black breed, which has a high market value, is progressing, etc. The number of Akaushi being kept is decreasing year by year. Today, it accounts for just 1.3% of the total amount in circulation. Although I feel sad about the current situation, This is the story of Nobuyuki and Masanobu, a parent and child who face cows every day.
