| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It was clarified how the Nada brewery companies acquired the labors(①), the brewing technology(②), and the raw material rice(③) in order to enhance competitiveness with other production areas in the process of establishing the national brand in the first half of the 20th century.
①Nada's sake company focused on improving the quality of sake produced by promoting competition among workers (called Toji, Kurabito) at multiple factories.②In Nada at that time, compared to emerging production areas, there were few places where engineers from higher education institutions played an active role, whereas the summer seminar in the Toji's native place was significant.③Many kinds of rice including not only good quality sake rice obtained from long-term trading with the production place but also Korean rice were used.
