Koi breading flourished in the Nijūmuragō area for two reasons the custom of raising Koi in fallow fields for emergency food during the winter and to the existence of many inden or hidden rice fields in the mountains, unknown to the Lord, which allowed the farmer to avoid taxes and became relatively wealthy. Breading koi was promoted as a hobby of farmers who could afford it and high-quality individuals came to be bought and sold.
