A: Hey there! Heard any news about Hiroshima lately?
B: Not much, what's up?

A: Well, it seems like our beloved oysters are in trouble! The farms are having a terrible harvest this year.
B: Oh no, really? That's sad. I love eating oysters!

A: Yeah, it's bad. Our Fisheries Minister, Suzuki, visited the farms in Higashihiroshima City. He saw how much damage has been done and heard that some farmers lost about 90% of their oysters.
B: That's terrible! What are they going to do?

A: Well, Suzuki spoke with local officials and Hiroshima Governor Yuzaki. They asked him to look into why the oysters are dying and give financial support to the farmers.
B: I hope they find a solution soon. This is serious.

A: Suzuki said he understands the gravity of the situation now that he's seen it with his own eyes. He promised to help and work with local municipalities to provide assistance.
B: That's good to hear. Let's hope things get better for our oysters!

A: It's not just Hiroshima, other prefectures on the Seto Inland Sea are having the same problem too. Their oyster farms are also suffering from high rates of shellfish deaths.
B: Wow, that's really concerning. Let's keep an eye on this situation and wish our hardworking farmers all the best!
