“Oisix”, which provides safe and secure agricultural products, processed foods, meal kits, and other food delivery services, has been temporarily closed by elementary, junior high, and high schools nationwide to take measures against the new coronavirus. The”Milk Support Corner” will be launched on March 5 to provide emergency assistance to dairy farmers who are in trouble, and will promote sales at 3 discounts and introduce milk consumption recipes.
The effect of the temporary closure of schools due to the spread of the new coronavirus has spread to businesses that provide school lunches. Yokkaichi Dairy Farm in Yokkaichi City, Mie Prefecture, supplies about 7 tons of milk per day to local schools for lunch. Two days after school closure, Oisix has begun urgent sales on the 5th, when it was told that the milk it was about to ship was suddenly overdue and was in trouble.
Children who are closed are continuing to stay out of school, and the need for food delivery is increasing so that they can avoid shopping as much as possible.
Therefore, Oisix has opened a “Milk Support Corner” and also proposed a recipe to use plenty of milk at home. We will introduce recipes such as “Fresh! Strawberry Milk” that does not use fire, starting with “homemade cheese making” at home, and support the aggressive consumption of milk at home.
Period: March 5 (Thu) 10:00-April 2 (Thu) 9:59 * End date and time are planned
① Milk at the foot of Suzuka Mountain (1ℓ) Standard price 282 yen (excluding tax) → 197 yen (excluding tax) * Sold at a 30% discount on the regular price
②Introduction of plenty of milk recipes
Five dairy farmers (dairy farmers only) at the foot of Mt. Suzuka use only raw milk milked from dairy cows raised on feeds without genetic modification. It is a “production area pack” that packs freshly milked fresh milk at a factory near the ranch. For pasteurization, it has a fresh taste like freshly squeezed raw milk.

The Hiroshima Museum of Art is hosting the exhibition “ZIPANGU: Contemporary Artists Who Defined the Heisei Era” (November 2, 2024 – December 22, 2024). This showcase brings together works by some of the most prominent figures in Japan’s contemporary art scene, including Yayoi Kusama, Takashi Murakami, Makoto Aida, Yoshitomo Nara, Chiharu Shiota, Izumi Kato, Akira Yamaguchi, and Miwa Komatsu. The exhibition has already garnered significant attention, exceeding 10,000 visitors.
HYAKKEI covered the dialogue between contemporary artist Takashi Murakami and Sueo Mizuma, the curator of this exhibition, held at the RIHGA Royal Hotel Hiroshima. We also conducted an exclusive interview with Mr. Mizuma.
The discussions centered on the aspirations behind the ZIPANGU exhibition and offered forward-looking insights, not only into Japan’s art world but also into the rediscovery of value within Japanese culture by its people.
