Changes of income in agriculture from beef cattle in Japan

Agricultural income

Abstract

Income from beef cattle in Japan’s agricultural livestock sector reached 826 billion yen nationwide in 2022 in the field of farmed beef cattle. This figure shows how great the economic value of beef cattle production is to Japan’s livestock industry. The livestock industry is an important sector of Japanese agriculture, with beef cattle production accounting for a large proportion of it. This trend is driven by increasing demand and changing consumption patterns. In addition, Japan’s livestock industry is highly technologically advanced, and the country is striving to improve productivity and ensure quality. However, concerns about environmental issues and food safety are growing, calling for the establishment of a sustainable livestock industry. It will be necessary to continue to respond to changes in demand and technological innovation, and the livestock industry will continue to occupy an important position in Japanese agriculture.

Beef cattle production income

The income of beef cattle in Japan’s livestock industry has undergone multiple changes between 1955 and 2022. At its peak in 2022, it reached 826 billion yen nationwide, the highest figure ever. This represents 100% growth from its peak. This growth is driven by a variety of factors, including increasing demand and advances in production technologies. Additionally, Japan’s livestock industry is economically important and plays a major role in the agricultural sector. However, the livestock industry faces environmental problems and food safety concerns, calling for efforts towards sustainable development. Characteristics of this trend to date include improved productivity due to technological advances and flexible responses to changes in demand. In the future, the livestock industry will continue to develop in line with changes in demand and societal requirements.

Beef cattle production income (prefectures)

The income of beef cattle in Japan’s livestock industry has experienced changes between 1964 and 2022. At its peak in 2019, Kagoshima recorded revenue of 128 billion yen, but has since fallen to 96.1%. This trend is influenced by a variety of factors within the livestock industry. These include fluctuations in demand, market competitiveness and the impact of weather conditions. In addition, the characteristics of the livestock industry vary from region to region, and regional factors may be at play in why Kagoshima’s income is below its peak. Such fluctuations indicate uncertainty in the livestock industry, requiring the ability to respond flexibly to changes in regional characteristics and demand. In the future, strategies for the development of sustainable livestock farming will be needed that focus on regional characteristics and market demand.

In Japan’s livestock beef cattle income in 2022, Kagoshima will achieve the highest income of 123 billion yen, with the overall average being 16.8 billion yen, and the total being 791 billion yen. The data show that livestock farming is economically important. Livestock farming has different characteristics depending on the region, and while certain regions, such as Kagoshima, can achieve high incomes, other regions may not be able to match them. The livestock industry, which is subject to fluctuations in demand and market competition, requires continuous efforts. Technological advances and increased efficiency are key to increasing incomes. Furthermore, as interest in sustainability and food safety grows, there is a need to review production methods and transition to environmentally conscious management. While addressing these challenges, the livestock industry will continue to develop as an important pillar of Japan’s agriculture.
