These are human relations, production control, agricultural conditions, disposition for substitute lots and farmers'payment.
Moreover, the causes for the farmers'disagreements in unexecuted projects are studied by means of multidimentsional quantification I.As a results, it is clear that the farmers who opposed projects have doubts on substitute lots, farming management, land reduction by disposition for substitute lots and rice cultivation control.
