Abstract This study covered the real condition and its problemsof gathering and shipping in the production area, focusing
especially on the local agricultural cooperatives. Analyzed product for this study is tomato, and our sample location

counties nearby, it is the most appropriate product in order to understand the reality of gathering and shipping local
agricultural products. Main points of the study are as follows. Firstly, organizationof rural areas and farmers is
necessary. Secondly, the process of blanket purchase by the agricultural cooperatives and the direct selling by the
agricultural cooperatives should be expanded. Thirdly, investment efficiency of APC facilities should be improved,
with a revision of APC use. Finally, cooperation system within the agricultural cooperatives must be established.
