Survey area is Soka city, north of Tokyo.The results are these.1) The reducing rate of Outside Landowner's agricultural land is low from the rate of local agricultural land.2) The Outside Landowner living in neighbor municipality, the rate of agricultural landuse is high. This rate becomes low where Outside Landowner lives further from Soka city.3) The Outside Landowner's land distributes near the border of municipality4) The landuse change from agricultural land to informal non-agricultural use tends to occure when area is small and neighbor landuse is nonagricultural landuse.
