The issue of this paper is to understand the characters of family-run farm operation of a newly developed rice farming area on Sanjiang Plain, China with its labor process, economic and vital processes. The materials for analysis are daily labor reports and farm balance sheets recorded by Farm Production Group No.17 in Xinhua State. After the balance sheet was organized, supplementary research was made in March 2008. The selection of farm household is based on production scale. One farm household has the largest scale (No.1, 18.3 ha), two large scale farm households with more than 10 ha (No.7, 14.4 ha; No.2, 12.0 ha, three upper medium scale farm households with 7.5 to 10 ha (No.4, 9.9 ha; No.3, 9.0 ha; No.6, 8.0 ha), three lower medium scale farm households with 5 to 7.5 ha (No.8, 7.2 ha; No.9, 6.5 ha; No.5, 5.0 ha), one farm household less than 5 ha (No.10, 4.1 ha). However there is no record of farm household scale with less than 7 ha because No.10 emigrated; No.9 and No.5 have expanded the scale of their farms. This research is to understand the characteristics of rice production based on labor daily report, and also touches on employment, work contract, and labor hour replacement issues. Their balance sheets showed the external factors regarding distribution and financing and the breakdown of their balance.
