Description

<p>This study proposed some measures for the sustainable management of an irrigation pond in a rurban area in Japan (Yanagisawa village, Ueda city, Nagano Prefecture). This paper focused on the status of implementation of cultivation and analyzed the factors motivating participation in the management of the pond using a questionnaire survey.</p><p>Multilinear regression analysis showed that cultivators who recognized the value of the flood mitigation function were more motivated to participate in the management of the pond than non-cultivators. Thus, it is suggested that an exchange program to provide agricultural experiences for non-farmers living in the area should be implemented to introduce them to cultivation and pond management practices. Finally, it was recommended that the pond management system was reviewed so that females can participate in management because many females expressed their desire to do so.</p>
