Abstract
The present study is to investigate the characteristics and
determinants of spatial distribution of strong small farm by defining
the term, strong small farm (SSF) extracting the SSF households
data dealing with apples, from 2010 Census of Agriculture, Forestry
and Fisheries, Korea. Spatial distribution and concentration of SSF
are analyzed based on spatial clustering techniques. We construct
discrete dependent variables on strong and non-strong small farms
and then analyze the determinants of the SSFs using probit model,
with independent variables including population and economic
characteristics and management characteristics. As of 2010, the
apple SSFs, 1,529 households in total, are geographically concentrated
in Gyeonsangbuk-do according to the analysis results. The determinants
of SSF are similar to those of farms’ earnings. When located in the
apple producing area, and participating in producers organization
while selling products directly, the farm is highly likely an SSF. The
findings and results of the present study are expected to provide
