The relation between budgets and political factors is one of the interesting target of the analysis for the public choice studies. But growing interests now can not show clearly the evidence between them. While, inapplicability of public choice theory to Japanese own conditions would makes the analysis more difficult, it is therefore needed to make clear, because the relation in fact do function in our society, we are sure.
In this paper, we try to make clear the relation as one case between the budget size of the expenditure item “efficient land use for agriculture” and “the number of the representatives of ruling party” in every 47 prefectures.
The results of analysis show the positive relation for our presumption between them, but they are not enough to support our further assumptions.
The explanation variables here are from principal factors analysis which make equally adjusted independent components concerning about five data categories, labour, land, capital, physical environment and social environment. Furthermore, we take the power index category into independent variables. This variable playes as the political factor shows the positive relation in the process of the step-wise multi-regression.
This analysis will be expanded to the other budgets categories and other power indexes.
