Abstract
This paper analyzes the 2013 Forestry Management Statistics Survey Report（“Report”）from the point of view of the Peasant Forestry（Farm Forestry）theory. In the background are the crisis in mountain villages and the forestry crisis. Under the self-harvesting family forestry theory, family labor is used in agriculture and forestry at the small and medium-sized level to form fixed capital. This paper establishes an integrated perspective on the demolition theory and the Peasant Forestry（Farm Forestry）theory. Based on the labor theory of value of Marxist economics, this paper splits value into constant capital（c）, mainly from the Report, variable capital（v）, and calculated surplus value（Mehrwert（m））and conducts analysis over time and synchronic analysis. It would appear that the forestry crisis led to the mountain village crisis and a subsequent deepening. However, at the small and medium-sized level, family labor wage valuation（v２）is observed. Also, a decline has been observed at the level of 500ha or more, where there is some prospect for farmers’forestry. By zone, Kanto and Higashiyama showed financial improvements. An advantage of the western Japan personality can be seen. Self-harvesting forestry in western Japan also is considered to be thriving.
