Agriculture and Forestry Number - Nourinbango

Japanese: 農林番号 - のうりんばんごう
Agriculture and Forestry Number - Nourinbango
A registration number given to crop varieties developed at research institutes affiliated with the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries or at nationally designated test sites scattered throughout each prefecture. In 1925, a nationwide organization began testing new varieties using cross breeding methods for wheat, and the following year for rice. The new varieties developed through this program were called by their Norin numbers, and the same method was gradually applied to other crops. They were named after the respective crops, such as "Rice Norin No. 1" or "Wheat Norin No. 1," and these varieties are still called by these numbers today.

農林水産省所属の研究機関や,各県に点在している国指定試験地で育成された農作物品種につけられる登録番号。1925年にコムギ,翌年から水稲について,全国組織として交雑育種法による新品種の育成試験が始まったが,この計画で生まれてきた新品種は農林番号で呼ばれるようになり,順次他の作物についても同様の方法が適用されるようになった。それぞれの作物名を冠して〈水稲農林1号〉とか,〈小麦農林1号〉とか呼ばれるようになり,これらの品種については現在もこの呼び方が品種名となっている。
