Japanese agriculture is facing a critical situation nowadays, with the share of part-time farmers in total farm labor force increasing and the food self-support ratio declining. Some high-productivity farms have expanded their agricultural land in an attempt to increase productivity in order to survive in the competitive marketplace. The purpose of this research is to empirically analyze the determinants of growth in agricultural income per farm, agricultural dependency, that is, the share of agricultural income in total farm income, and agricultural land per farm, using the cross section data of Japanese prefectures, Simultaneous equations models are established with due consideration to the interdependence of the variables. According to the results, agricultural dependency and agricultural research play an important role for agricultural growth. Agricultural research can promote more growth in an area with low agricultural productivity. Agricultural expenditure of the government and exchanging labor force among farms increase agricultural dependency, and contribute to expanding agricultural land. Higher agricultural land price and larger leftover farmland can prevent farmers from expanding farmland. Increasing elderly population in agricultural farms can lower agricultural growth, and expanding agricultural land will be difficult in the forest area. However, agriculture can be considered as an important job opportunity for those in the forest area and for the elderly.
