The amount of labor employment in beef production is increasing and is generally expected to be a promising form of management. The purpose of this paper is to outline conditions in the labor employed beef production management. Results indicate that the labor employed management is different from the family farm. The wage rate is higher in employed management than in the family farm. Where labor is employed, productivity is higher than family farms due to high fixed capital investment. In addition, productivity is higher and the scale is lager in the labor employed management. The average cost of labor in employed management is not much lower than that of family farm because of higher labor cost and replacement costs in labor employed management form. Finally, the employment conditions are not good in beef production. Thus, an increase in employment in beef production is unlikely.
