Purpose of Research
○In general, the expansion of capital investment is essential for industrial growth; however, growth in the agricultural sector driven by capital investment has stagnated since the late 2000s. Moreover, the aging of the agricultural labor force and the stagnation in the inflow of new workers have further threatened the future sustainability of agriculture. To promote agricultural growth through increased capital investment, it is desirable to encourage efficient investment expansion led by young and middle-aged farm operators who tend to exhibit stronger investment willingness than their older counterparts.
