Abstract

One of the primary concerns in Japanese agriculture since the Basic Agricultural Act was enacted in 1961 has been the implementation of more efficient and productive large-scale farming. This concern has received even greater attention because of persistent pressure from foreign countries for liberalizing Japanese markets of agricultural commodities. Accordingly, the transition from small- to large- scale farms has been heavily promoted, and various policy measures have been introduced by the government; revisions of the Farmland Act in 1970 and 1980, launching of the Farmland Utilization Promotion Project in 1975, and the passing of the Farmland Utilization Promotion Act in 1980.
