An empirical analysis based on panel data from Japan's Census of Manufactures FUKAO Kyoji RIETI IKEUCHI Kenta NISTEP KIM YoungGak Senshu University KWON Hyeog Ug RIETI The Research Institute of Economy, Trade and Industry http://www.rieti.go.jp/en/ RIETI Discussion Paper Series 11-E-068 September 2011 Do More Productive Firms Locate New Factories in More Productive Locations? An empirical analysis based on panel data from Japan’s Census of Manufactures FUKAO Kyoji (Hitotsubashi University, RIETI) IKEUCHI Kenta (NISTEP) KIM YoungGak (Senshu University) KWON Hyeog Ug (Nihon University, RIETI) Abstract Using a Melitz-style model of heterogeneous firms, Baldwin and Okubo (2006) recently presented a theoretical model in which self-sorting occurs and more productive factories choose to locate in more productive areas. The model suggests that firm-specific factors and regional factors affect each other through the endogeneity of location decisions. However, to date there have been few studies empirically testing this issue. Against this background, our aim is to examine the relationship between firms and location-specific factors in location decisions using factory-level panel data from Japan’s Census of Manufactures. We begin by estimating how much of the differences in factories’ TFP levels can be explained by both firm and location effects. The estimation results show that both effects have a significant impact on the productivity level of a factory, and that the firm effects are more important than the location effects. We also find a statistically significant negative correlation between firm effects and location effects, and investigate what causes this relationship.

Do not be afraid of asking fellow JETs, coworkers, neighbors, or even random strangers for help or information. Despite what language barriers there may or may not be, whomever you ask is likely to help you as much as possible. If they are unable to help, they‘ll probably direct you to someone who can.

The school is surrounded by a beautiful natural environment filled with rivers and mountains. In 2013 Ikeda High School celebrated the 30th anniversary of its founding and it has turned out no less than 8,000 graduates, who have played active parts as leaders in all fields of society both in the local areas of Gifu Prefecture and in Japan About 460 students enjoy lessons and club activities every day. They have achieved good results in every aspect of student life. When there was the drastic rise in the number of students, Ikeda High School had as many as eleven classes in one grade and reached the maximum of about 1,300 students in all. But with a gradual fall of the number of children in the surrounding areas and with more junior high school students hoping to enter high schools in urban areas, Ikeda High School has become a small school with four classes in each grade.

Toji: The parson who makes sake.. Shuzo (shuzojo/shuzoten): sake maker or brewery. Hiochi: bacterial contamination, spoilage (of sake) Brewing process of Japanese sake ① Seimai, rice polishing Japanese Sake breweries mainly utilize sake-brewing rice which is only used for making sake. As a first step of brewing sake, brown rice of the sake rice is polished to exclude the germ and the surface fraction. They contain abundant proteins, lipids and inorganic substances. These ingredients are negative factors for sake because taste and the color can be rough. Also without highly polished rice, deterioration of sake is accelerated easily. Therefore, the center of rice grain called shinpaku is basically used in production of sake. Shinpaku is also called pearl of rice from this reason.

In Japan, land improvement districts play a key role in the management of irrigation systems, but face serious problems in terms of management sustainability and require participation from non-farmers. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of residents’ involvement in small hydropower projects on their environmental awareness and understanding of the projects’ multifunctional regional value. We administered a questionnaire survey to 238 households in three areas: Itoshiro, Kashimo and Ibigawa. The respondents were categorized into four groups: participation, recognition, knowledge and control. Based on the degree of respondents’ involvement in small hydropower projects, inclusive relationships between their involvement and awareness were revealed. These relationships suggest that the trigger of resident involvement is a key factor in developing sustainable small hydro facilities within existing irrigation systems. Keywords: small hydropower; regional resource; participation; environmental awareness; irrigation system; land improvement district; participatory irrigation management; Long-Term Plan of Land Improvement; Japan 1.
