In order to estimate agricultural experience on promotion of understanding of agriculture, we investigated the effect of agricultural experience in primary school on the image of agriculture among children. Before 1-year experience program, many of the pupils have poor image to describe agriculture, whereas in the year following the one-year experience program, they get to be have rich image found in it. Further, prior to the start of the program, negative adjectives were observed to be used by the pupils to describe agriculture, whereas after the completion of the program, positive adjectives were used more often. Moreover, junior high school students who had experienced activity in primary school show very similar results to pupils after the one-year programs, i.e. they have rich and better impression to agriculture. Thus, our survey suggests it could be indicated that agricultural experience in primary school help children to understand and have interests agriculture.
