Agriculture plays a significant role around the world in order to achieve sustainable development, as it is the major source of food supply, and plays an important role in building the social structure of rural areas (Oerke et al., 2004; Cooper et al., 2007; Damalas et al., 2009; Wilson et al., 2001). Depending on the region/country, these aspects weigh differently. Japan’s agricultural scenario, although not very massive, is sometimes termed as an outstanding contributing sector to the country’s economy (1.5% of GDP) (Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, 2010). It is characterized by high production and secured subsidies, owing to its socio-cultural background and environmental characteristics.
