The subject of this paper is to analyze farming in rural communities by inhabitants of other rural communities, especially in mountainous areas. Since the enactment of the new Basic Law, the preservation of farmland has been one of the most important issues in Japanese agricultural policy. In this study we obtain important suggestions for overcoming difficulties in preserving farmland in mountainous communities by themselves where the number of farmers is decreasing. The results of our analysis are as follows. 1) In many almost-extinct communities, farmland is cultivated by inhabitants of other rural communities, and some cases over half of all farmland is cultivated by members of other rural communities. 2) The reason for these invasions is the divergence in quality of farmland among communities. This situation implies there is an economical rationalities underlying these invasions. 3) Most of invading farmers are aged or earn their main income from other jobs. Thus we can not expect them to play the role of farmland user in almost-extinct communities in the long-run. On the other hand, there is still considerable need for these invasions. Therefore, even though it may be effective to discover individual invaders in the short-run, more organized activities involving neighboring communities will be required in the long-run.
