The purpose of this report is to theoretically examine organizational change within local agricultural organizations. To do this, I utilize the concept of intermediate structures. The target of the analysis is limited to local agricultural organizations. If we are to understand the local agricultural organization as a form of cooperation for family farm management, then we must historically reorganize how organizational change has been investigated in previous research.
Organizational change of local agricultural organization is analyzed using the following two approaches : (1) An analysis of organizational change from complementary to alternative farming management ; and (2) an analysis of organizational change using a multi-layering of area wide cooperation.
