This paper estimates the impact of socio-economic, environmental, and other characteristics, such as region, working period, productivity,profitability, environmental condition of aquafarm, expected effectiveness of the system, and subject who has responsibility on aquafarm management. Based on the result, it suggests some implications to promote aquafarmers' perception and participation in aquafarm resting system. The main results are as follows; the aquafarmers' awareness of necessity in the system is not affected by working period, productivity, and environmental condition of aquafarm. But it is influenced by region, expected effectiveness of the system, and subject who has responsibility on aquafarm management. While it has a positive relationship with expected effectiveness of the system, it has a negative relationship with subject who has responsibility on fishing field management. The aquafarmers' awareness of urgency in the system is not affected by profitability and environmental condition of aquafarm. But it is influenced by working period,region, and expected effectiveness of the system. While it has a positive relationship with expected effectiveness of the system, it has a negative relationship with working period.
