JA Aozora is an agricultural cooperative that helps promote the business of farmers in the Kagoshima area. Based in Shibushi, east of Kagoshima and next to Shibushi Bay, it advises and supports farmers in selling their products. Agricultural cultivation in Shibushi began during the Taisho era (from 1912) when the wasteland of the Shirasu Plateau (a plateau formed by a fiery cloud in southern Kyushu that occupies half of Kagoshima Prefecture) was transformed into a fertile farmland. The know-how of the ancestors who made this plateau fertile is also passed on to younger generations through this cooperative. Umami imports kukicha tea from JA Aozora farmers, an original tea flavored with yuzu.
