＞ ⚖ Main Debates Surrounding Abolition and Relaxation
＞◤① Perspectives ◤② Main Arguments, Advantages, and Disadvantages
＞◤① Proponents of Deregulation/Abolition (Business community, experts emphasizing efficiency, etc.)
◤② Advantages: Corporations and large-scale farms can take over land surrendered due to aging, facilitating land consolidation and expansion of scale (e.g., introduction of smart agriculture). This helps eliminate abandoned farmland.
＞◤① Cautious/Opposing Sides(Agricultural organizations, certain political parties, etc.)
◤② Disadvantages: Concerns that corporate profit-seeking and exit risks could lead to improper maintenance of farmland. Additionally, land speculation, buyout risks, and the conversion of prime farmland pose threats to food security.
>>> While voices calling for complete abolition to liberalize corporate ownership (such as proposals from RIETI) remain strong, current trends remain cautious regarding the liberalization of "ownership rights," pursuing practical deregulation primarily through expanding "use rights (leasing)."
