Mr. Nogami, present head of Nogami Koi Farm located in Muikamachi, Nagaoka city, gained training as a staff at Dainichi Koi Farm during its peak for fifteen years. He followed in the footsteps of Nogami Koi Farm in 1994. He did receive damages from the Chuetsu Earthquake of 2004 and lost some oyagoi, but with his passion for producing beautiful “Nogami Koi,” he has pulled everything back together. He currently produces Kohaku and Showa Sanshoku.
