The site, Yashiro area in Himi-shi Toyama-ken, is an area of famous for production of “JINENJO (Japanese yam), Himi-gyu (Himi-beef), Tei-tanpaku-mai (Rice with low protein)”, because of their wealthy nature of forests and climate.  And the effort for solve local problems are so lively as make up “Yashiro-Jyunkan-patororu (The team of Yasiro for patrol).  

But this area also has a problem of depopulation.  Only over 700 people live and the rate of elderly people is over 40 percent in there.  
The area has the decrease issue of special products from lack of successors.  And they want for new ideas to appeal the area and the special products to public!
