[Nago/Nakijin] There have been a series of thefts of electric wires used for electric chrysanthemums in Nago City and Nakijin Village. The rise in the purchase price of copper is thought to be related to this. Farmers who have been victims of theft and have had to repurchase the wires at their own expense, which are now at a rising price, are expressing their anger.
