Agriculture | | Japanese term or phrase: 零細分散錯圃 | A system in Japanese agriculture.
It seems to consist in keeping small rather than large farms, and all dispersed, in order to avoid big loses in case of natural disasters and others. In the document I'm working on, changing this traditional system and producing on big farms will improve productivity and has other advantages.
Is there any name in English for this? |

| Grading comment Thank you, casey.
What I really wanted was a name for the system, but didn't get one, so I ended up using an explanation of what it is...as you say.

A little long, but it does make sense.

Sorry, owners should be "ownership," but it didn't fit. I'd drop the "its" in front of it, though.
