From 2003, the transformation of the procurement system of the Beihai Shipin has been converted into constructing farms. After introduction of organic farming, custom cultivating farms also started gradually. Due to the residual pesticides problem in 2002, some factors insisted directly to change the system, and the procurement system has been changed drastically for the purpose of reinforcement of a pesticidemanagement.In the case of Beihai Shipin, from 2003 to 2006, self-managed farms and contract-based farms have been decreased. The main reason was that the farms of the factories located at the outskirts. Under this change, most of vegetable farmers in this village became farm labors, and other peasants and changed their sales through middle merchants for domestic purpose. Farms can be classified into three types. The direct management type independent farm is run directly from the establishment to management, and it is managed by dispatched staffs, and the farm management where the profit is highest is done. Commission self-managed type farms which are managed by former middle merchants by the purposes of the farms, and the manager performs tenure system and investment of farmlands. Contract farms are the individual farms that contract directly with the company, and they are obligated to improve agricultural infrastructure. The latter two types have common property except the birth. The profitability of farms is not always high, because high wages and high tenancy rates, so they tend to shift to the outskirts.
