Mountain villages in Japan have seen a large-scale exodus of their youth. To stop this phenomenon from continuing, —which leads to depopulation and population aging—it is important to understand the economies of mountain villages, and then develop a precise structure that supports domiciliation.In these mountain villages, unique agricultural practices that embrace a variety of methods are r equired; however, it is difficult to clarify and analyze this kind of unique management by examining statistical data. As a result, I carried out a participant-obser vation field study for one year or more in Niyodogawa-cho, Kochi, Japan. By forming a reliable relationship with a local farmer in this area, I was able to analyze his agricultural management; I did so, largely by reviewing his job diary and by making direct observations.As a result, it is revealed that farming immigrants who have finished their child care obligations can succeed in sustainable agricultural management; on the other hand, it is comparatively more difficult for younger immigrants who are caring fortheir young children to manage their households.
