Abstract
This paper aims to identify the requisites for rural residents to accept visitors for experience learning. A questionnaire survey was done for residents in a Kami town, Miyagi pref. The main findings were as follows. 1) Just 2% of the respondents had experience of accepting junior high school students aiming for agricultural experience learning, and spatial distribution of the respondents having those experience was uneven. 2) Seventeen percent of the respondents had latent intention for cooperation to accept the visitors. 3) Most important requisites was found to be offering visitors' personal information beforehand. 4) Provision of the database on acceptance conditions such as accommodations and experience was found effective.
