1.0 IntroductionSatoyama (里山) is defined as "A dynamic mosaic of managed socio-ecological systems that produce a set of ecosystem services for human well-being" (Japanese assessment Satoyama Satoumi, 2010). a mixture of various socio-ecological systems, including: forests, agricultural lands, ponds and grasslands. This terminology is based on the Japanese concept of long-standing traditions associated with land management practices. Satoyama developed through prolonged interaction between humans and the ecosystem, usually located in rural areas of Japan along with human settlements. Since the 17th century, this tradition of living in coexistence with nature has contributed natural resources and acted as a gated village. Until the 1970s, Satoyama became a tourist site for the urban population. Urban tourist arrivals have allowed culture and religion to be emphasized in the local community. Although satoyamas have proven to be a beneficial factor for ecotourism, rapid urbanization in recent years has caused Japan to physically lose satoyama landscapes to other recreational uses. Keywords: Satoyama, ecosystem, agriculture, Sado Island 2.0 Ecosystem services Satoyama includes three key ecosystem services: Provision, regulation and cultural provision as in natural resources used for the human community, for example timber and food. This sector determines the impact of economic growth and industrialization. Although rice fields have absorbed much of the land intended for agriculture and reduced the production of other plant products, rice industries have greatly improved their agricultural technology. A common problem in this service is the use of pesticides, which contaminate the rest of the paper. Understanding the problem in Sado through corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities. Conclusion Sustaining the Satoyama ecosystem requires people, and the problem of how to keep them in rural areas. Without proper maintenance, wildlife will take over. Therefore it is more efficient to have an urban location close to the rural area. Even with part-time workers, the tradition is unlikely to be preserved but could probably be sustainable.Reference:1.
