The Reorganization of regional agriculture is analyzed from the viewpoints of transaction in this paper. The transaction analysis is the latest method in firm economics. The structure of regional agricultural organization is explained by asset specificity and marketability. When the asset specificity is mixed, inter-organizational transaction based on "customer relationship" is chosen, because the customer relationship save the transaction cost to suppress opportunism. Regional agricultural organization is explained as an inter-organization. But the marketability problem is not solved by the customer relationship. To solve the marketability, regional agriculture is inter-organaized based on "regional incentive system". Transaction activities in regional agricultural organizations are explained by "agent-principal relationship". Opportunism is the most distressed problem in the agent-principal relationship. But this problem is also solved by the customer relationship and the regional incentive system.
