| Research Abstract |
We made an extensive investigation on farmers'situation in Sakata city, Yamagata Prefecture, and a continuous intensive case study by participant observation on farmers' activity of collective learning in eastern area of Hokkaido. We found some different orientations not only in strategy of farming but also in family life as well as their philosophy on life, nature, agriculture, and community, and that these orientations are diversified remarkably in the contemporary free market situation and consciously realized through the farmers' learning process and the historical context of it in each area.
