• Stakeholder Management and Sustainability of Community Farms:An Empirical Study in Shiga Prefecture

  OGAWA Keishi, YAGI Hironori

  Today，community farms have become increasingly important as the recipients of farmland that owners cannot manage; thus，investigation for management to enhance their sustainability is required. Although previous studies implied the importance of stakeholder management regarding the sustainability of community farms，the effect of stakeholder management is yet to be confirmed. This study conducts a questionnaire survey and estimates relationships between stakeholder management， sustainability， and internal and external environments of community farms in Shiga Prefecture，Japan by using structural equation modeling. As a result，effective choices as stakeholder management and factors that affect choices of stakeholder management are empirically identified.

• ART FESTIVALS AND RURAL REVITALIZATION: ORGANIZING THE OKU-NOTO TRIENNALE IN JAPAN

  Agnès Sarale, Hironori Yagi, Menelaos Gkartzios, Keishi Ogawa

  Organizing rural art festivals is considered an effective intervention in support of rural revitalization in the face of aging and population decline in Japan. Several studies have identified the impacts of art festivals on economic and social rural development internationally. Little research, however, has focused on the management process of such festivals. The objective of this paper is to identify and examine the management processes crucial to an arts festival’s success, especially in terms of preparation, organization and community outreach. We focus on the first edition of the Oku-Noto Triennale, which took place in Suzu City, a remote coastal area of rural Japan in 2017. The Triennale was held from September 3, 2017 to October 22, 2017 with 39 groups of artists. Data for this study was primarily obtained through qualitative interviews with Suzu’s City Office, the coordinator of theArt Front Gallery, a Tokyo-based art gallery, and community members involved in the festival. Our case study revealed thatseveral factors were found to be crucial to the festival’s success. The organizing team’s flexibility, for example, assigning additional municipalities’ employees to site operations, was pivotal. Experienced actors, such as outside professionals and residents with prior experience organizing previous projects, who could address and overcome the difficulties they faced during the preparation, also deserve mention. The festival also succeeded due to the involvement of residents. In total, 1,176 people were involved as registered supporters, and 434 residents were involved as local volunteers during the festival (counted in working-days). The organizing team worked hard to convey the underlying concept of the art festival to the local residents. By organizing the festival, the residents met and formed bonds with new people and also strengthened their ties with one another.

  農業経営のSH（ステークホルダー）との関係性や経営によるSHマネジメント（SHM）と経営成果との関係のメカニズムについて，既往研究をもとに分析モデルを精緻化した。とくに，SHの類型と影響関係について，既往研究と調査データをもとに整理した。また，集落営農法人の組織文化と経営戦略の関係について，組織文化を「連結ピン」として，集落営農法人のSHMと地域個性との関係や，生活結合の論理をはじめとする二元性を整理した。 国内の複数地域を対象として，水田経営向けのアンケート調査および関連するSHへのアンケート調査の統一調査票を設計し，11月から2月にかけて配布・回収した。また，集落単位のGISデータにより空間計量経済モデルにより分析した結果，集落内のステークホルダーによる人的なつながり（ソーシャル・キャピタル）が耕作放棄の抑制に貢献していることが示された。 具体的なSHMについて，人的資源管理面から，農業法人の従業員に対して職務満足度調査を実施した結果，業績評価に基づく給与体系を採用し，農繁期以外で週休2日としている事例の満足度く，残業ゼロかつ週休1日の事例においては，満足度が低い傾向が示された。 農業経営と地域との関係性について， 法人経営へのヒアリング調査を行い，雇用労働力と地域との関わり，集落営農法人と構成員との関わりなどについて明らかにした。 農業経営の政策対応に関連して，生態系サービス保全において農業環境支払（環境直接支払）が一定の役割を担っており，更なる普及と保全効果の改善のため，農業環境政策に成果連動支払（PFS）を導入することが有効であることを論じた。

  This research project has examined organizational sustainability of multi-unit agricultural firms, in which a farm equipped with multiple labor-cum-machinery units. Based on the questionnaire survey and case studies, we conclude reduction in the machinery cost is crucial by extending cropping season through the introduction of various crop varieties and enterprises. Improving efficiencies in communication and reducing intra-organizational conflicts were also found to be important. In order to achieve the organizational sustainability, human resource development of farm business managers who can adapt to various risk situations, flexible application of the agri-environmental scheme which can attain both economic and environmental goals, and development of crop varieties which can extend the cropping season were suggested to be crucial to the future stabilities of multi-unit agricultural firms.
