Research Abstract |
As a part of the grand design of research to understand the life pattern of Japanese farm families under rapid mechanization, labor pattern and time perspective of rice cropping farmers who are major figures in Japanese agriculture were analyzed at micro-level through longitudinal analysis of time allocation data surveyed since 1950's. As to the division of work in family enterprise, which was assumed to represent labor pattern, it was found that the division by gender remained the same over 50 years. However, as to time perspective, change was observed among younger members due to displacement from farming.
