The lab studies the distribution of agricultural products, direct-sales outlets for farm products, and ties within rural communities.

Prof. Sakurai, in the field of Food System Studies, researches the distribution and marketing of agricultural products, as well as rural society and economy. The main themes are the marketing of agricultural products, especially fresh fruits and vegetables, and processed foods, as well as the management of farm direct-sales outlets and the behavior of the producers who supply them. The lab also studies social ties among people in rural areas (social capital) and the diversification of the rural economy, including urban-rural exchange programs.

The lab studies agriculture-welfare collaboration, which links farming and social welfare, and the food system for domestically produced wheat and barley.

Prof. Yukisato, in the field of Food System Studies, focuses on agriculture-welfare collaboration (nofuku renkei) and domestically produced wheat and barley. Agriculture-welfare collaboration is an initiative in which the agricultural and welfare sectors work together to create workplaces and places of belonging for people with disabilities in agriculture. From the perspective of food security, the lab also studies the food system initiatives needed to increase domestic production of wheat and barley. In some cases, a graduate and Prof. Yukisato have co-authored a paper based on the graduate's thesis and published it in an academic journal.
