	Crop-livestock Integration In Hokkaido, Japan, Based On Ammonia Treated Straw As Livestock Feed (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Hokkaido has been called the "honor student" of the Basic Law of Agriculture, because of its success in expanding the average farm size and developing specialized crops (Table 1).
		There is a need for upland farms in Hokkaido to lower their costs, and also to improve the quality of their products, since there has been an expansion of the price differential between low- and high-grade products.
		Shirataki village is located in the northeast of Hokkaido, and its agriculture is marginal because of the high, steep terrain, causing cold-weather damage and water deficit.
