The fallen-leaves of Satoyama are required for quality compost manufacture. This research aims at clarifying the actual condition and the subject of fallen-leaves collection by a town office in an intermediate and mountainous area. Examination methods were documentary search, an interview, and participant observation. As a result, the town office is managing the compost factory of organic substances recycling. And the town office is managing the system which purchases fallen-leaves. Recently, the fallen leaves which the town office purchases decreased. The cause is reduction of the collection number and a collection zone. The systems by which a house collects fallen-leaves are decreasing in number. However, organized for collection of fallen leaves has durability. In order to increase those who collect fallen leaves, the increase in the number of zone which collects fallen-leaves is effective.
