| The body size and weight of 584 Banei draft racehorses at Obihiro Racing Stable in Hokkaido, Japan, was investigated. Almost all the animals (94.7%) were cross-breed heavy draft horses; there were a few Percheron and Percheron grade (4.8%) and a Belgian breed (0.5%). The ages of the animals ranged from 2 to 10 years. Males accounted for 80.3%, females for 17.5%, and 2.2% were castrated. The mean body measurements of 2-year-old Banei draft racehorses were significantly smaller than those of the 3-to 4-year-old or 5-to 10-year-old horses. Hip width, croup width, and rump length of females were greater than those of males. In contrast, males had greater chest width and cannon bone circumference than females. Significant relationships among almost all body... |

| ste artigo analisa a remuneração, a qualificação e características do emprego das pessoas ocupadas em empreendimentos cuja atividade principal é a cultura da cana-de-açúcar, a produção de açúcar e/ou a produção de álcool, no período de 2002 a 2006. Considera-se o conjunto de todas as pessoas ocupadas nessas atividades e destaca-se aqueles que são empregados (assalariados). Compara-se o nível de rendimento das pessoas empregadas em diversas lavouras: cana-de-açúcar, arroz, soja, café, mandioca, milho etc. são apresentados resultados para o Brasil como um todo, para as regiões norte-nordeste e centro-sul e para o estado de São Paulo. Verifica-se que a remuneração dos empregados na cultura da cana cresceu no período analisado, acompanhando o crescimento do... |

| This study considers the links between primary indicators of health and individual labor productivity in Colombia and explores how additional public expenditures on health may improve individuals health. Sample statistics show that illness occurs more frequently for women than for men, for less educated than for more educated, for rural than urban residents, and for older individuals. The well educated are considerably taller than those without schooling (6 cm. for males and 4 cm. for females). The empirical evidence confirms that health indicators are related to individual earnings in Colombia. A Mincerian log-earnings equation that includes health indicators as a form of human capital in addition to schooling is specified. When the morbidity variable is... |

| Este artigo analisa a evolução, no período 1992-2006, do rendimento das pessoas empregadas em empreendimentos cuja atividade principal é uma lavoura, destacando-se cana-de-açúcar, banana, café, soja e milho, utilizando dados da PNAD. Verifica-se que o crescimento do rendimento dessas pessoas no período 2001-2006 está fortemente correlacionado com a variação do salário mínimo real. Em seguida, usando dados do IEA/CATI, analisa-se a evolução da remuneração obtida no estado de São Paulo, de 1995 a 2007, nas empreitas de colheita de cana, laranja, limão, tangerina, café em coco, café cereja e algodão. Esses dados também indicam crescimento das remunerações por dia a partir de 2001. Para a maioria das culturas analisadas observa-se uma tendência de crescimento... |

| We empirically analyze the labor supply choices of married men and women according to their body size (BMI), using data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics on anthropometric characteristics of both spouses, and unmarried men and women as comparison group. Heavier husbands are found to work significantly more hours and earn more labor income, controlling for both spouses’ demographic and socioeconomic characteristics. Conversely, no such effect is found for either unmarried individuals or for married women. We suggest a marriage market mechanism through which male BMI and earnings are positively related. Heavier married men compensate for their negative physical trait by providing their wives with more disposable income, working more hours and earning... |

| Utilizing an original data set, we use regression analysis to estimate the impact of various factors on the earnings and the gender wage gap of the agribusiness graduates. Findings indicate that factors such as education, experience, gender, job sector, status and specialty, etc., are important factors in determining earnings. In particular, characteristics such as experience through a foreign internship during college, marketing, accounting and finance specialties are associated with a relatively high market value. Despite progress in recent years, results suggest that a 19 % wage gap still exists between men and women due to differences in human capital characteristics, differences in labor force participation behavior and individual lifestyle choices. |
