This invention provides a management method and management system that can improve the usability of selecting work items and setting work information. [Solution] The management method for the combine harvester 2, which is a work vehicle capable of autonomous driving, involves, for example, using the operator's management terminal 3, notifying the operator that the previously harvested area 191c (previously harvested land) where the combine harvester 2 has performed harvesting work has not reached the headland area 191e, which is the area required as a headland when the combine harvester 2 performs autonomous driving, or notifying the operator that the previously harvested area 191c has reached the headland area 191e, if the previously harvested area 191c has reached the headland area 191e.

To allow work vehicles to perform tasks within a designated area of ​​the field without reducing work efficiency. [Solution] The area adjustment system 99 comprises an adjustment unit 35 and a travel path setting unit 34. The adjustment unit 35 can adjust the central work area included in the field and the headland area set around the central work area. The travel path setting unit 34 sets a first work path that drives the tractor 1 to work in the central work area and a second work path that drives the tractor 1 to work in the headland area, based on the working width of the tractor 1. If the expected work area that is expected to be worked on by the tractor 1 traveling along the first work path becomes smaller than the central work area in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction which is the direction of travel of the tractor 1, and an unworked area occurs in the central work area, the adjustment unit 35 adjusts the central work area and the headland area so that the unworked area is included in the headland area.
