Many governments adopted agricultural development policies related to crops type, land use pattern , and market for agriculture products to get the agro-based economic development. Some policies could actualize their aim and objectives, while others failed to gain their goals. If agricultural development policies are not fitted to the nature of a given area, farmers gradually adjust the policies to the form that is suitable to the natural environment. Since Myanmar shifted to market oriented economic system,
distinguished policy changes were carried out in the agriculture sector. This paper tried to analyze these policy changes and farmer 's response to these changes in different natural environment from a case study of Ywashe Village, Patheingyi Township. The study emphasized on the agriculture ohanges between the 1976 and 2005. Data used in this study were derived from intensive _open interviews conducted to 7 farmers during May 2005 and structured interviews conducted to 43 villagers (6 1% of farmers who owned their land in various amount) living in Ywashe during January and February 2006. The results revealed that farmers have done minor adjustments to the government policy to fit with given natural conditions. Some adjustment involved changes in crop type while others concerned with land use pattern change. 'Both types of changes are reflected from' a combination of the conditions of nature, agricultural development pol icy, and farmer's response.
