| Research Abstract |
This study considers benefits and challenges of corporate farming in Japan. By the international comparisons, corporate farming does not always results in farmland acquisition. The more significant matter is that corporate farming shoud be supported by professional farm business managers.
The benefits of entering farming by firms in Japan can be summarized as 1) scarcity of materials, 2) opportunity loss, 3) the merits of de-concentrating material suppliers, 4) companywide profitability, and 5) the effective use of resources from original businesses.
