Another Option for the Future
The main industry of Nakajima is
orange growing but flatfish culture is also popular.
The number of people who works for
this industry is about 30 people, and with the people who
want to stay and work in our hometown, the figure is
increasing little by little.
One of the reasons for the increasing
number of this industry is the orange farming is getting
very competitive with other major production areas in Japan
and imported oranges, plus this new industry in Nakajima
survived the typhoon in
1991. The
town see this is another option for the future of
Nakajima.
The tide of Inland Sea around the
islands flows quite fast and keeps harmful bacteria away
from the flatfish.
