The objective of this session was to clarify how an agricultural network can be formed among management entities and the way this network operates. Focusing on the effects and uses of various resources, we investigate character of the agricultural network.
In Japan, nowadays uncertainty is increasing as to the future of the agricultural business. Under the circumstances, we must pay close attention to the movements of “agricultural enterprises”. This term refers to an agricultural management entity to operate agriculture sanely and properly. These management entities have been increasingly steadily over time related with political schemes, such as agricultural business diversification and integration.
In the context of these issues, this session consisted of three presentations and one panel discussion. The first presentation was built around analyzing frameworks and the others analyzed the relationships between the agricultural management entity and its society. After the presentation, we presented a panel discussion regarding innovative farm governance and management.
