Kaneko
Koi
Farm

Kaneko Koi Farm was founded in 1961 by Takaaki Kaneko in Nigorisawa, Nagaoka, Niigata. His son Yasuaki Kaneko now runs the farm. Importers describe it as one of the first farms to create and stabilize the Kujaku variety. Yasuaki Kaneko says the farm mainly breeds Kujaku and Shiro Utsuri, and also keeps Kawarigoi, Beni Kikokuryu and Ochiba. The farm has about 55 mud ponds and around 60 parent koi, and produces about 30,000 koi a year.
