| Research Abstract |
In our study, we have a viewpoint that the roles of Japanese agricultural cooperatives changed from preservation of farmers income to management of rural society and development. We researched Japanese agricultural cooperatives in the point of I. succession of rural agriculture, II. rural industry development, III. low environmental effect farming practice, and IV. welfare for persons of advanced age.
In the points of I, II and IV, we try to understand the structure of new outsourcing business that created by agricultural cooperatives in there corporate restructuring. In the point of III, we apply LCA method to composting plant system in the rural area, so that we wont to know how about environmental performance of rural agricultural activities.
Consequently, by the theory of cooperate governance, extension of agricultural cooperatives organization by union will soon reach the dead end in the phase of economics. And by LCA method, there are some problems in existing rural resource management system. The idea of Network agricultural cooperative is very effective for solution of these subjects. The most important reason is, in this idea, distance between cooperative and these members will not leave any more.
