Abstract

There has been a general tendency, wherein the number of new farmers has been decreasing. As the number of new farmers from non-farm households as a percentage of all new farmers has grown, so too has their importance as the bearer of Japanese agriculture.<br>This study aims to examine the effects of agricultural training systems delivered by agricultural production corporations on new farmers.<br>The results of a questionnaire survey administered among agricultural production corporations, are as follows: (1) The rate of new employees in agricultur e increases after agricultural training by agricultural production corporations largely because of long-term training systems and supports to new farmers, and (2) New farmers continue farming largely because they are highly active in their work, and they have established sustainable relationships with the corporations during their training.
