What is Yuzu? Yuzu citron is often used as a flavoring agent since it emits a strong aromatic fragrance when its lumpy rind filled with many oil glands is peeled. While this fruit with high resistance to cold, disease, and pest is pro- duced widely in Japan, Kochi Prefecture accounts for about more than 50% of the domestic production. A Yuzu weighs around 100 to 130 grams and its rind is rich in vitamin C. The fruit also contains calcium, iron, potassium, vitamins B1 and B2. The rind also contains a fragrant oil. In Japan, people enjoy the fragrance of Yuzu by putting chopped rind into soups or nabe (Japanese one-pot dish cooked at the table) dishes, or adding squeezed fruit juice to grilled or raw fish in combination with soy ■ Yuzu seasoning (Ponzu sauce, dressing, pepper) sauce.

    Spatial Distribution of Economic Activities in Japan and China Masahisa Fujita, J. Vernon Henderson, Yoshitsugu Kanemoto, Tomoya Mori July 9, 2003 1. Introduction (to be completed) 2. Distribution of Economic Activities in Japan The purpose of this section is to examine the distribution of economic activities in Japan. Rapid economic growth in the 20th century was accompanied by tremendous changes in spatial structure of activities. In Section 2.1, we examine the regional transformations that arose in postwar Japan. Roughly speaking, after WWⅡ the Japanese economy has experienced two phases of major structural changes. For our purpose, the interesting aspect is that each phase of industrial shift has been accompanied with a major transformation in the nationwide regional structure. The Japanese economy now seems to be in the midst of a third one and we offer some conjectures about its possible evolution. Perhaps the most important public policy issues concerning urban agglomeration in Japan is the Tokyo problem. Indeed, Tokyo is probably the largest metropolitan area in the world with a population exceeding 30 million. The dominance of Tokyo has increased steadily over the 20th century, ultimately absorbing a quarter of the Japanese population in 2000. In Section 2.2, we discuss attempts made to test empirically the hypothesis that Tokyo is too big. A test of this kind involves the estimation of urban agglomeration economies and we also review the empirical literature in this area. In Section 2.3, we move to the spatial distribution of industries among cities. Some metro areas have attracted a disproportionately large number of industries, leading to great variations in industrial diversity among metro areas.
