The latter law groups such airports into four legal classifications: * Hub/First Class airports (拠点空港) serve a hub role in domestic or international transportation. They are subdivided into privately managed airports (the three largest international airports), national airports (run by the central government) and special regional airports (hubs run by prefectural or municipal governments). * Regional/Second Class airports (地方管理空港) are other prefectural/municipal airports that the central government deems important to national aviation. * Joint-use/Third Class airports (共用空港) are those shared between civil aviation and the Japan Self-Defense Forces. * Other airports (その他の空港) fall outside the above categories.

In 2001, the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, which receives 20% of the public-works construction budget, commenced a scheme to build airfields predominantly for airlifting vegetables. Kasaoka Airfield was one of nine airfields constructed; however it was later determined that flying vegetables to Okayama from Kasaoka took just as long due to loading and unloading, and cost approximately six times as much as road transport.
