The After World War I, the development of the agriculture sector was delayed in contrast with the rapid growth of the industrial sector. Japanese agriculture accelerated by innovation after the economic revitalization following World War II. It clarifies the production structure of the rice production in Japan, and there is this study before the end of World War II after the First World War end during the analysis period. This study clarifies a change of factor shares of the rice production sector in this time. The purpose of this study is to elucidate the characteristics of the production structure of the rice production in Japan from 1922 through 1944, and the agriculture in Japan at this time is considered to be in a developing stage. The historic change of the rice production in Japan gives a suggestion for agriculture development in modern Asia. The measurement of factor shares of the rice production in the analysis period applies "a method to estimate land income as rest." In addition, it measures the Cobb-Douglas's type amount of production formation function. It clarify the contribution of the production input. The changes of factor shares are as follows. The change of factor shares is land, labor, fertilizer, cost of draft animals, agricultural machinery, materials, building for agriculture, seed in order of the average value from 1922 through 1944. As for the development of production technological system, it is a technological innovations land-saving and fertilizer-using. The results of estimate by the amount of production formation function are as follows. In the periods of 1922-1944, the input of the labor is excess level, the input of the fertilizer is under level and the input of the land is equilibrium level. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
