The cultivated area in Japanese agriculture depends heavily on the characteristics and management style of each region. In Hokkaido, large-scale farming utilizing vast areas of farmland is the norm, with potatoes and onions being cultivated in large quantities. In the suburbs of cities in the Kanto and Kansai regions, small-scale but high-added-value vegetable cultivation is thriving, such as leafy vegetables and tomatoes. In individual farming operations, the area planted is determined based on the size of the farm and management policy, and efficient mechanization and appropriate crop selection contribute to increased profits.
