This study clarifies the land use and institutional problem of dispersed settlement for Tonami City and Takaoka City located in Tonami plains in Toyama Prefecture, and aims to propose the land use control manual method in the dispersed settlement of the future. From the research, we can point out that there is a problem in the application of the agricultural promotion system of Toyama Prefecture as a background to which development in Area of the Land for Agricultural Use is easily done like Tonami City. Features of this system are that the possibility of development rises if the lots for artificial use exist from the development site within 50m. As a result, development happens frequently in Tonami City where the regulation is loose.
