Japan opens door to foreign farmers www3.nhk.or.jp
Japan has decided to allow skilled foreign nationals to work on farms in special economic zones. This is aimed at tackling a serious labor shortage in the agriculture industry.
Government officials say people with a certain level of Japanese proficiency and specialized farming knowledge will be eligible.
They will be permitted to take up farming jobs in designated "National Strategic Special Zones" for agriculture where regulations are eased.
Separately, officials decided on a plan to address an acute shortage of day care centers.
They will allow small-scale facilities in special strategic zones to accept children up to the age of 5. Current regulations limit admission to children up to the age of 2.
