Abstract
A farm field setting processing unit sets an inner peripheral work region and an outer peripheral work region in a farm field having a shape where a right side and a left side that face each other are not parallel to each other. A work-direction setting processing unit sets a work direction for a work vehicle within the inner peripheral work region. A path setting processing unit sets, within the inner peripheral work region, a travel path as a work initiating path at a location adjacent to the right side that is parallel to said work direction, from among a plurality of sides that define the inner peripheral work region. On the basis of the work direction and the travel path, a path generation processing unit generates a travel path for the work vehicle within the inner peripheral work region.
