Questionnaire surveys were conducted for all leaders of 209 farmers' unions of Kameoka City and Kyotanba Town in Kyoto Prefecture to analyze the present state of the group activities to decrease agricultural damage caused by wildlife at paddy areas. The group activities in a group were carried out at 70.1% of all farming communities damaged by wildlife, most of which depended on fences for protecting farmlands from wildlife. Of the farming communities, 46.8% answered that they required non-farmers' cooperation for the activities, but it was at only 28.l% of the farming communities where non-farmers cooperated on work or expenses for the activities.
