Salt was produced at salt pans at the seashores. Here the so-called agehama salt production method can be seen. The salt that remains in the grains in the sand is swept together by wooden plow, after which the salt is made thicker in water and baked at the nearby salt shops seen on the right side of the composition. The place depicted here is Yui.
