For economic evaluation of the public-benefit functions using CVM, the payment appraised in the improved area was about two times higher than the non-improved area. It can be considered that land improvement projects have possibility of bringing residents to the external economy in the form of improvements of habitation environment at the location when the area of the projects overlaps residents' living environment.

The travel cost method is a commonly used method of valuing recreational sites. Although mail surveys are often conducted to collect data on the costs of travel to the amenity, they usually result in a lower response rate than that of face-to-face interview surveys. As a result, several biases such as non-response bias and sample selection bias will occur. The benefit derived from the consumption of environmental services can be over-/under estimated. We examined whether the rate of non-response varies as the distance from the study site increases, based on the data collected from recent visitors of Ohigawa River, Shizuoka-city. We can conclude that, contrary to our expectation, there is no statistically significant correlation between the non-response rate and distance within 150km of the site.

We took two types of non-farmland land uses; abandoned farmland and build-up land. First, we clarified how much externality was occurring by questionnaire and interview survey. The result showed that disease and insect control nearby abandoned farmlands were serious problem both on the paddy and upland field. Solar problem and damages from wildlife were recognized serious problems by upland farmers. Second, we estimated the extent of non-farm land use at which most farmers would feel externality by logistic regression model. The result had significance about most variables.

Experimental analyses of real social phenomena have been difficult because of physical and ethical limitations. In this research, we developed a model that predicts process of change in agricultural structure by Community-based Agricultural Land Lease model (CALL model) applying Multi-Agent Systems (MAS). The CALL model is a simulation model based on artificial society in computer. The CALL model is expected to be a new approach to overcome these difficulties. Though the model should be further improved, it would be able to provide crucial information for local agricultural planning.

Although it is important to grasp the characteristics of macroscopic land-use changes, only few attempts have so far been made in regional planning. The purpose of this paper is to develop a land-use model over Japan. We employ Geographically Weighted Regression using Greater Municipal Regions (GMR) as data units. GMR is a cluster of municipalities consisting of central cities and surrounding rural villages and is considered to have a suitable spatial scale for regional planning. The results show that factors prescribing agricultural lands exhibit a high degree of variability over space and make clear the spatial characteristics of GMRs.

Land resources in the floodplain of the Upper Zambezi River in Western Province, Zambia were assessed using satellite imageries and field observations. The vast Barotse Plain measuring 48 x 165 km at its maximum width/length is formed through seasonal iterations of flooding from the Zambezi. Various phases of micro topography found in the center of the plain provide different types of land usage by the Lozi, who practice seasonal grazing, farming and migration in a unique manner. Image analysis revealed that a great portion of the plain is flooded following the rainy season, remaining very limited land available for farming and living.

As the result, it became clear that the probability of the residential land envelopment could estimate by the high level of the goodness of fit. It also became clear that in addition to the important factor of the land use change like geographical features, geological features, and the population distribution, the initial land use condition plays very important role. Moreover it also became clear that to estimate the probability of the residential land development only by initial land use condition is possible at a considerable level.
