本文回顾了外国受训者对那些想要扩大劳动密集型商品生产的农民的重要性。日本当地的年轻人一般不愿从事农业工人的工作，日本一般不接受低技能的移民，但允许农民、制造商和其他雇主培训和雇用年轻的外国人，最长可达三年。在东京以北的茨城县，向农民提供投入并销售蔬菜和其他农产品的农业合作社帮助农民成员介绍外国受训人员，这些受训人员使农民扩大了生产，增加了合作社的销售。受训者在日本的36个月大部分时间必须支付日本最低工资，加上培训相关系统的额外费用，但他们仍然比全职日本农场工人便宜。主要数据来源于日本农业普查等统计数据以及对合作社、农户和学员的访谈。
This paper reviews the importance of foreign trainees to farmers whowant to expand their production oflabour-intensivecommodities.Local Japanese youth generally shun farm worker jobs, and Japan is generally closed to low-skilled migrants, but permits farmers, manufacturers andother employers to train and employ young foreigners for up to three years. In Ibaragi Prefecture north of Tokyo, the agricultural cooperatives that provide inputs to farmers and market their vegetables and other produce helped their farmer-members introduce foreign trainees, whoallowed farmers to expand their production andincreased cooperative sales. Trainees must be paid the Japanese minimum wage for most of the 36 months they are in Japan with the additional costs for train-related system, but they are still cheaper than full-time Japanese farm workers. Main data are coming from the statistics like Japanese Agricultural Census and interviews with coops, farmers and trainees.
