概要:
This study utilizes factor analysis to evaluate the performance of natural farming in paddy rice fields in Japan. The findings cover four performance imensions, namely operational efficiency, human relationships, ingenuity, and

open-mindedness. Given a relatively weak theoretical basis, including hypotheses and constraints on the relation between factors and observations in preceding studies, it was decided to use exploratory factor analysis to identify latent variables. Although natural farming is thought to entail more financial risks than conventional farming, natural farmers are considered to be more enthusiastic in their pursuit of this particular approach to farming and are dedicated to larger social and environmental goals as well. This study is therefore limited to an analysis of natural farming and natural farmers. There are, moreover, implications for further sampling and time-series research, which could be of value when conducting trend analyses of management practices. The originality of this study lies in its having developed a performance evaluation metric using exploratory factor analysis based on direct inputs from farmers as well as performance evaluation indicators obtained through theobservation and interaction with these farmers. Moreover, there has been no research which directly grasps the behavior of farmers who devise measures to improve competitiveness. Finally, since survey data of farmers are generally used narratively rather than quantitatively, due to the challenges involved in the latter, this research has methodological significance
