Abstract
“Green Brexit”, the post-Brexit farming policy in the UK, is based on the idea of spending public money for public goods. The UK will abolish the Basic Payment Scheme that accounts for over 60% of British farm income, and will introduce a new land management policy that is based on current Countryside Stewardship. Public goods include not only the environment but also animal welfare, health, education, and rural community. Japan's agricultural sector can learn from UK's Green Brexit with regard to the targeted policy strategy and the idea of new farm certification method.
