On December 1, 2016, the Aomori Apples Association (Joto Chuo, Hirosaki City) began selling the 2016 version of the "Apple Notebook."

This notebook is issued annually for apple growers. The annual schedule sets work targets for each product type and each month, and explains the important points.

In addition to being able to write down the weather conditions of the day, we have posted detailed information on apple tree conditions and materials divided into five items such as "Cultivation" and "Pests". The latest data on apple production / sales status, production volume, and cultivated area over the past 30 years are also introduced.

The circulation is 1500 books. It is said that most of the products will be sold within the year. Shintaro Nakano of the association said, "I hear that apple growers write down their annual work and use it to review past work," he said.

All 36 pages. The list price is 700 yen. It will be sold at the "Aomori Prefectural Apple Fair" held on December 5th and 6th, as well as at the association's window, and will be available on the website thereafter.
