Rishiri kelp fishing grounds
More than 90% of kelp comes from Hokkaido. Among them, the typical types of kelp are not only Rishiri kelp, but also true kelp, Rausu kelp (onikombu), Hidaka kelp (three-stone kelp), long kelp, and fine kelp.
In terms of rice, it becomes a "variety" like "Koshihikari" and "Sasanishiki".

Rishiri Island is Premium
There are “Jikata” that can be harvested on the main island of Hokkaido and “Shimakata” that can be harvested on Rishiri Island and Reibun Island.
Shimakata is very valuable because it has better quality than rural areas and the yield is small.
Shio flow, water temperature, sunshine, flowing river conditions, and good drying area
