The Rebirth of Agriculture in a Post-Nuclear Fukushima

In 2011, an infamous tsunami and nuclear disaster devasted parts of Fukushima Prefecture, Japan. As clouds of radiation spread, the prefecture that was once known for its agricultural produce became feared and stigmatized. This thesis explores the effects of the 2011 nuclear disaster's impact on Fukushima's agricultural industry and recent efforts to bring back agriculture to a town nearby the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. This research culminated in a multimedia journalism project.
