Pricey vegetables bring tough time

We agree that the most recent difficult time for the common people was brought on by more expensive vegetables, which made them reflect on what our beloved everyday precious life now entails. The surprising circumstance has become a difficult period to endure. Due to several circumstances, vegetable prices are currently high in several places, including Kanpur.  Various common vegetables are now less available and more expensive because of supply chain disruptions, particularly those caused by the rainy climate. Media do not fail to report that rising vegetable prices are practically putting pressure on household finances, particularly for those with lower incomes.

Females wane in rural Japan

According to the 2020 Census, about 9.1 million single women are found between the ages of 15 and 49 living in 46 of Japan's 47 prefectures, except for Tokyo. 

This describes a 20% decrease from the 11.1 million unmarried men in the same age spectrum in certain areas which are called prefectures, the difference comes to 30%. 

A prefecture is an administrative jurisdiction traditionally governed by an appointed prefect. This can be regional or local. Japan has as many as 47 prefectures. 

Due to the recent trend of more women than men in the greater Tokyo area and their proclivity to bypass rural areas after freely emigrating for work or study, there are more single women than single males in the countryside. This is definitely a disposition of the Japanese.
