Izumio-Shinden is taken up as an area where the so-called Settsu-type agricultural management was carried on, and an attempt is made to clarify the foundation on which such an agricultural management was realized.Firstly, the development of Shinden is briefly touched upon, and its character as Shinden contracted by tradesmen is indicated. Next, mention is made of the allotment of land and of the tillers. The information is based on "Shinden jiwari-cho" (A Book of Allotment of Shinden Land) and "Gesaku Nayose-cho" (A Directory of Tillers) compiled in the initial stage of the development of Shinden.Thirdly, how a tiller and land were combined is explained, and lastly the general outlook of agricultural management which was carried on under such a combination is examined.The conclusion is the agricultural management practiced in this Shinden is a kind of so-called Settsu type agriculture and has a distinguished character of commercial agriculture that is seen in suburban districts.It was barely possible, because of the nature of the present examination and the space limit, to deal with the social and economic conditions which regulated such a type of agricultural management, and the social structure of Shinden. It is hoped that these subjects will be discussed presently with more detailed analyses of agricultural management.
