The purpose of this study is to clarify meaning of entries into the agricultural sector by welfare facilities for persons with disabilities owned by private companies. These activities have many varieties, but they can be classified into four types by the way in which they were established. Compared with social-welfare corporations and special subsidiary companies, those welfare facilities have many strengths in the agricultural world. As a result, they will become the farms which can support the regional agriculture where they are located and we should support their activities in the agricultural sector.
