The great harvest season has come! Thank God. This year we are worried about radiation. Did the nuclear power plant accident by the 3.11 Quake effect Matsumoto, which is 300km far from Fukushima?
Nagano Prefecture inspects foodstuffs (vegetables, fruits, grain(rice/wheat/barley/soba), meat(beef/deer), milk, river fish, tea, wasabi) harvested in Matsumoto and Nagano area and NO RADIATION (radio iodine nor radio cesium) WAS DETECTED after April 21. Especially, rice — Japanese staple food — was inspected in all 76 cities/towns/villages in Nagano Prefecture and no radiation was dedected.
Some of the inspection results (March-August) can be seen here in English.

This year, fruit (apples/grapes/pears) are sweat and tasty because of the hot summer.
