However, the“core principal farmers” have ever been drastically decreasing since the latter half of the , 20th century, which directly caused not only the abandon- ment of arable land but also the collapse of rural communities. In family holdings, the aging of workers engaging in agriculture and the shortage of successors have been aggravating, which have made to maintain the partnership based on family blood and marriage linkages more and more difficult. Under the circumstances, since various improvements in economic and legal aspects regarding the contract forms among family members have been undertaken, consequently various business types of agricultural holdings different from the traditional types have been formulated. In this study, it is intended to locate the present situation and future direction of family agricultural holdings of Japan and western countries in the transforming process of business types caused by the structural change of family agriculture commonly observed in the world, in other word, the movement toward the partnership holdings and companies in juridical entities.}, pages = {79--98}, title = {The Logic and State Concerning New Types of Business Organization of Family Agricultural Holdings -A Comparative Analysis between Japan and Western Countries-}, year = {2011} }
