Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Hilly and Mountainous areas in Japan have been faced with a shrink of rural communities and a rapid increase of farmland abandonment due to a drastic declining and aging population. Such problems threaten huge and precious multi-functionalities of agriculture in the areas. In this research, I elucidated the configuration of new Extended-area Farming Corporation(EFC) responsible for fairly farming of large areas which have been emerged due to limits of conventional Community-based Farming Corporation. EFC was reexamined in the context of social enterprises of Japanese rural areas.
