Abstract
In recent years, local farmer's markets have had a significant influence on the shipping site of agricultural products. This study examines the contribution of farmer's markets to the improvement of the management and planning process of full-time farmers. This study suggests that farmer's markets have been welcomed by local farmers as an alternative shipping site for full-time farmers. This research found that farmer's markets encouraged full-time farmers to practice ingenuity in terms of production methods as well as introduce new products. It is further suggested that urban regions also have the capacity to build agricultural networks.
