Yudate’s Cultivated Land Memorial
In April 1914, the Yudate Arable Land Clearance Association was established, and at its general meeting, officers were elected and construction costs were set. In May of the following year, a resolution was made to issue bonds, and construction began. The pumping power was obtained from the Kawada Hydroelectric Company at that time, but was later changed to an inhalation gas engine, and then changed again to electric power in April 1915.
The area under control was 25.6 hectares. However, compared to before the consolidation was implemented, the improvement of the agricultural roads as well as the water supply to the paddy fields was remarkable.
In June 1939, a monument was erected by Nabekichi Hirano, the head of the union at that time, to mark the outline of the project and to commemorate the labor of the predecessors. The outline of the project is engraved on the back of the granite monument.
