| Research Abstract |
This study aimed to reveal relationships between newly-entered farming businesses and rural communities/economies. In Japan, farming businesses are developing their businesses by diversification and value-added strategies. In the US, CSAs(Community Supported Agriculture) are increasing, however, the relationships between CSA farm and members are gradually shifting to business-oriented ones.
