Regional development initiatives in Kazuno City

Overview

Kazuno City in Akita Prefecture has undertaken various initiatives to address regional social and economic challenges.

In September, the city hosted the “Oideyo, Fukushi no Mori” welfare event, which featured demonstrations of sign language, braille, and disaster preparedness. During this period, Akita Governor Kenta Suzuki also visited a local nursing home to discuss reducing the physical burden on care workers through mobility assistance equipment.

By October, the city’s focus expanded to regional revitalization through the livestock industry. A new trial program was launched to attract new workers by providing firsthand experience in pastures and cattle sheds. This initiative aims to secure future successors for the production of ‘Kazuno beef’ in preparation for official recruitment efforts in the next fiscal year.
