Abstract

The wages to the agricultural labourers were generally paid in cash and kind. Only kind payment was made for harvesting of grain crops. Wages were paid on contract basis for piece work, and 34.94 per cent of total farm expenses was accounted for by the total wages including imputed value of family labour. Paid wages per unit of gross cropped area increased as the farm size increased.
