What is Japan's main crop?
Predictably, it is rice, down from a maximum of 14 million metric tons annually in the 1960's, but still nearly 12 million metric tons in 1999. Importation is heavily taxed, and as late as 2005, the Japanese government was subsidizing rice production at up to ten times its actual world market value.

Sushi originates from which country?
It really depends on how you look at it. Sushi's first origins were arguably in China. Fish was stored in fermented rice as a means of preserving it, but the rice was never actually eaten with the fish. It was thrown away, so if you consider fish stored in rice to be the origin, then the answer would be China. After the storage idea had migrated to Japan, the Japanese took it further, and started eating the rice with the fish. It wasn't until the early 17th century, once again in Japan, that they started to season the rice (instead of the long process of fermenting it), and selling it as "sushi." Japan later sparked many further developments of this food type. So, if you mean the current food form, I would say Japan.
