Surrounded rice - Kakoimomi
|
In the Edo period, the shogunate ordered various feudal domains, towns, and villages to stockpile unhulled rice in preparation for emergencies. The purpose was to store rice in case of a storm, but from the mid-19th century onwards it was also used to regulate rice prices.
