| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The study reveals the phenomenon that the crops intrroduced following the acreage deduction policy were newly named as "traditional vegetables", and how those crops were merchandized with some nostalgic tastes.
Though the administrations, enterprizes and the JA were the main outer actors, the farmers organized production unions exceeding the ranges of the families and villages as well. With this, they cooperate to organize cooperative production and shipping systems to widen the marketing areas. They tactically participate to the movements, which leads to the increment of traditional vegetables.The creation of the traditional vegetables can be seen as a creation and transformation of culture which appeared as a resistance to the acreage deduction policy and an adaptation to the modern society,both of which the farmers have chosen independently.
