Description

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a wasabi cultivation device, and more specifically, planned cultivation of a large amount of wasabi indoors using a cultivation tank without being affected by the region or weather conditions. The present invention relates to a simple cultivating device for water wasabi that is configured to be capable of performing.

[Prior Art and its Problems] Wasabi, which is cultivated as a spice in Japan, is said to be the best crop in terms of its unique flavor, flavor, and spiciness. It is widely used not only to increase appetite but also to eliminate fish poison when used as an accessory for sashimi tsuma, sushi and noodles. There is almost no part to discard wasabi, and non-standard rhizomes and poor seedlings, as well as petiole, sprouts, and even absorption roots are used as raw materials for pickling wasabi. As such, it is one of the most profitable crops of vegetables, and its advantage has been known for a long time, but due to the nature of choosing a specific environment, production is stagnant because it can not be done anywhere. However, the current situation is that it cannot keep up with the increase in demand.

In the wasabi fields that are commonly cultivated, mountain stream type, geozawa type,
There are tatami mat type and flat type, but these Tsukida styles are all in the natural environment, so we must pay particular attention to water management. Water is said to be the life of Wasabi field,
If water does not flow evenly, uneven growth may occur and diseases may occur. Also, if the equipment is not properly installed, it will be flooded when it rains and will be severely damaged.
Moreover, in order to take measures against such flood damage, dikes, etc. must be constructed, and most of Tsukida's expenses are incurred by this dike construction cost.

As described above, the current wasabi cultivation is high in cost because the yield is greatly influenced by the environment of the wasabi field and the weather conditions.

[Means for Solving Problems] In view of the above problems in the present invention, in order to cultivate wasabi in a room where conditions are adjusted, a water supply unit and a cultivating unit communicating with the water supplying unit are provided. 2 depending on the partition of the part
It is divided into compartments, a water flow control gate is provided at the water intake on the upper stage and the water outlet is opened, and a water inlet is opened on the lower stage and a valve is provided at the water outlet to adjust the water flow speed.
A large number of vertically penetrating holes are bored in the partition wall of the cultivating section, and a wasabi cultivating device configured to attach a wasabi planting pot made of net or porous material to the holes is presented. Is.

[Embodiment] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

The cultivation device 1 is composed of a box-shaped tank molded by FRP or the like, and is divided into a water supply unit 2 and a cultivation unit 3. The cultivation section 3 is divided into upper and lower parts by a partition wall 4, and a water intake gate 6 of an upper stage 5 is provided with a water amount adjusting gate 7 such as a dropping lid,
By adjusting the vertical position of the gate 7, the amount of water flowing into the upper stage 5 is adjusted. Further, the water outlet 8 of the upper stage 5 is open.

The lower part 10 of the cultivating section 3 opens the water intake 11, and the water discharge port
A valve 14 is provided at 12 and the flow rate of water flowing through the lower stage 10 is adjusted by the valve 14. The water in the upper stage 5 flows at an appropriate flow rate, while the water in the lower stage 10 is adjusted by the valve 14 to have a low flow velocity. The water is made to flow to the upper stage 5 by making the water supply part 2 highly inclined with respect to the water outlet 8, and the flow velocity is adjusted by adjusting this height.

A large number of holes 15, 15 ... Penetrating in the vertical direction are formed in the partition wall 4 between the upper stage 5 and the lower stage 10, and the holes 15, 15 ... Are made of a net or a porous material. It is constructed so that pots 16, 16 ... Can be mounted. The pots 16, 16 ... Are filled with gravel and the like and are planted with wasabi seedlings. Also holes 15,15 ...
Since the ∘ penetrates vertically, the lower part of the pots 16, 16 ... Is arranged to be located in the lower stage 10.

Although not shown, the water flowing out from the cultivating unit 3 is returned to a tank through a purification facility or the like, and while being sent to the water supply unit 2 again from this tank, a water temperature suitable for cultivation (12 to 15
It is cooled to (° C), and during this time, it is configured so that dissolved oxygen in water is replenished and a fertilizer or a chemical solution is mixed therein.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, the present invention includes the water supply unit 2 and the cultivation unit 3 that communicates with the cultivation unit 3.
It is divided into sections, the water intake gate 6 is provided in the upper stage 5 and the water flow outlet 8 is opened, and the lower stage 10 opens the water inlet 11 and the valve 14 is provided in the water discharge port 12 to regulate the flowing speed. In addition to the above configuration, the partition wall 4 of the cultivating section 3 is provided with a plurality of holes 15, 15 ...
Wasabi planting pots made of net or porous material 16,16
Since it is a wasabi cultivation device configured to be equipped with ..., conventional wasabi fields have a great influence on the growth or yield depending on the environment and weather conditions, so production is stagnant and cannot keep up with the increase in demand. Was the current situation,
Since it can be cultivated indoors if the cultivation apparatus of the present invention, growth or yield is not privately owned by the climatic conditions, and the water temperature is easy to maintain at an optimum temperature of 12 to 15 ° C. The supply of oxygen, the supply of fertilizer, the mixing of chemicals, etc. are easily performed.
In addition, since it is cultivated in pots, it is easy to grasp the yield, and when a disease occurs, the pots can be easily taken out, and the gravel can be easily replaced when a pest occurs. In addition, the upper stage 5 of the cultivating unit 3 controls the amount of water by the gate 7, and the speed of flowing the water is performed by increasing the water supply unit side 2 of the cultivating apparatus itself, so that the flow velocity can be easily adjusted. Since the valve 14 adjusts the amount of water discharged by the valve 14, the flow velocity of the lower stage 10 can be obtained regardless of the flow velocity of the upper stage 5 due to the inclination of the cultivation apparatus 1.
It has a great effect on cultivation management. In this way, it is possible to cultivate a large number of wasabi in a complete management system without being affected by the environment or meteorological conditions by being able to cultivate wasabi using a cultivating device indoors. It has a very remarkable effect.
