摘要: 土地归整(LC)是一项有助于提高农业生产率的公共项目,其效果主要通过劳动生产率和土地生产率进行评估。但是,为了维护农业生产和社会区域,有必要将社区对非农民的影响力作为LC的一个方面。在这项研究中,我们通过张贴问卷调,对实施土地归整八年后的农村地区进行了调查,并分析了农民和非农民对政策效果多方面评价项目的看法之间的差异。LC的评价要点包括:[1]对农业和耕地保护的影响,[2]对社区激活的影响,以及[3]对农民和非农民之间合作的影响。结果可总结如下:首先,可确认由于土地归整,非农民对该地区的依赖程度出现减少的趋势。其次,非农民评价表明土地归整对年轻农民的吸引力也很低。但是,这种情况在最近退出农业的非农民中更为明显,比在因土地归整而离开农业的那一代人中更多。可以认为,土地归整是改善农业条件和农业结构的有用政策。但是,在某些情况下,农民与非农民之间的联系被削弱了。因此,有必要采取积极合作措施以防止这种削弱。




Abstract: Land consolidation (LC) is implemented as a public project that contributes to the improvement of agricultural productivity, and its effect is evaluated mainly by labour productivity and land productivity. However, to maintain both agricultural production and the social community, understanding the impact on non-farmers in the community as one of the aspects of LC is extremely important. In this study, we surveyed rural areas about eight years after the LC was implemented by posted questionnaire and analysed the difference between farmers' and non-farmers' perceptions of the multifaceted evaluation items on the policy effect. The evaluation points for the LC include the following: [1] Impact on farming and farmland preservation, [2] Impact on community activation, and [3] Impact on collaboration between farmers and non-farmers. Results can be summarized as follows: First, it was confirmed that there is a trend for non-farmers' attachment to the area to be reduced because of LC. Second, non-farmers evaluations that LC attracts young farmers were also low. However, this opinion was much more noticeable in non-farmers who had quit agriculture recently than in the generation that had left agriculture because of LC. In other words, LC is a useful policy for improving agricultural conditions and agricultural structure. However, in some cases, the connections between farmers and non-farmers is weakened. Thus, cooperative activities to actively prevent this weakening are important.
