Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aims at revealing how farmlands are managed by examining the roles played by the transfer of farmland rights in farm management and agricultural settlements; the study’s analysis is based on the social relationships among farmers that are involved in the process of maintaining farmland use for farmland maintenance. This study focuses on the spread and connection of social relationships among farm households. It also classifies various other social relationships after a careful consideration of each of their characteristics and analyzes them based on how these social relationships form layers, as explanatory variables, and who uses farmland through the transfer of farmland rights as explained variables. Based on this analysis, the study examines the role played by each transfer of farmland rights in the farm management of individual farm households.
