One is short-term leasing farm which is the public enterprise and ran by Hokkaido Agricultural Development Corporation. Other is permanent leasing farms which are ran Shihoro Town Agricultural Cooperative. Thirdly, the percentage of newcomers who can establish their dairy farming is over ninety percents. The factors of this high percent are study system of dairy farming, the financial support system by the local government, the technical support system by the Extension Center Of Agricultural Technology, the farm management support system by Agricultural Cooperative, and some dairy farmers in their district, Fourthly, newcomers are permanent leasing farms which are owned by Agricultural Cooperative in Shihoro Town, and they can ask the Agricultural Cooperatives to construct some buildings.
