Agricultural income in Japan varies greatly depending on the region and type of crop. Major crops include rice, vegetables, fruit, and tea, each with different profitability. Agricultural income is relatively stable in the Tohoku region, where rice is produced in large quantities, but in areas where vegetable and fruit cultivation is popular, income can be unstable due to fluctuations in market prices and the effects of weather. In addition, the aging of the agricultural workforce and lack of successors have become issues, and technological innovation and tertiary industrialization are being promoted to improve profits.
