The role of community based farming organization in maintaining middle class farmers
Kunio Nishikawa, 本稿の課題は，中規模層維持地域において集落営農組織が果たす役割を，山形県鶴岡市の事例から明らかにするものである。東北地方における集落営農組織は，「複合経営の稲作共同処理」組織としての性格と，政策対応的性格の強さという2つの軸で整理することができる。本稿では，前者の性格を反映するものとしてB組織を，後者としてV組織を検討対象とした。V組織は，枝番管理システムを導入し，個々の構成員の営農形態を残存させた組織である。B組織は，複合部門を主力とする各構成員が水稲春・秋作業を共同化した組織である。両者の間には営農形態に大きな違いがあるが，現状維持的という点で共通性がある。つまり，鶴岡市において集落営農組織が果たす役割は，米価・政策の変化を構成員の経営の外部で処理し，彼らの経営の安定性を保っていくというものなのである。, 東京農業大学農業経済学会

Development logic of direct marketing of rice farmers in current phase
Kunio Nishikawa, The theme of this article is to show the development logic of rice direct marketing by farmers on the present dimension and to obtain the suggestion that rice direct marketing has stagnated from a macroscopic view. I will notice the demand structure of rice and the structure of productive force, and will take up an example of Tayagawa area, Chikusei City, Ibaraki Prefecture. Conclusions of this article are as follows. Farmers need to cut down distribution cost and to lower the selling price by developing a lot of deals. Advancement of the structure of productive force makes it possible to sell directly, and is therefore required. It is suggested that paddy fields farmers who can do direct marketing in earnest are limited by this factor., The Agricultural Economics Society of Japan

Factors of reduction in rice price in the current phase
Kunio Nishikawa, Japan experienced its first sharp decline in the trend of rice prices after WWII, and consequently it is important to establish the factors behind this event. This paper, focusing on changes in consumer demand for rice and the development of labor adjustment in the national economy, makes ample use of statistical data to examine the factors behind the decline in the price of rice from the latter half of the 1990s. First, the portion of the change in rice consumption from the latter half of the 1990s to the first half of the 2000s that can be attributed to broad adjustments in the labor market was determined. From this analysis, it became clear that the first post-war long-term fall in both wage levels and numbers of workers was taking place; that this decline was heavily biased towards the construction, manufacturing, logistics and service industries at the level of the small- and medium-sized enterprise; and from analysis of the "Family Income and Expenditure Survey" that the impact of this labor adjustment was biased towards the members of the lower income classes. Low-income classes were most affected by labor adjustment. Further, I establish that from the latter half of the 1990s, reducing income levels lead to lower-income classes spending less on rice, and the difference with the price of rice paid by higher-income classes increased. The implication is that reducing income levels of the lower-income classes strengthened the tendency to lower prices of rice. Additionally, it is clearly established that the increase in the take-out/eating out consumption pattern is a factor in the reducing price of rice. The reason is that the use of blended rice by the take-out/eating out industry makes it easier to establish a cheap rice consumption pattern among consumers. Through my analysis, I clearly show that the reduction in the price of rice is not a matter of factors internal to the agricultural industry, but is due rather to external factors, in particular the impact of labor adjustment on consumers and the corresponding changes in their consumption patters. The price of rice thus entered a new phase in the period from the latter half of the 1990s., The Political Economy and Economic History Society
