Japan's Land Consolidation Program

Japan's Land Consolidation Program is a government initiative aimed at improving agricultural efficiency and land use. It involves reorganizing small, fragmented farmland into larger, more manageable plots through legal and physical measures like land readjustment and merging. This process helps reduce land fragmentation, upgrade irrigation and access infrastructure, and promote better resource sustainability. By streamlining land parcels, the program supports modern farming practices, boosts productivity, and prevents land disputes, ultimately fostering more effective and sustainable agricultural development across rural areas.
