Beginning in the 1970’s the plateaus of Alto Jequitinhonha, northeast of Minas Gerais, until then areas of common use by family farmers, were planted with eucalyptus. This article analyzes the effects of reforestation on land occupation, comparing it with the areas of the family production. It is carried out in the homogenous micro-region of Capelinha, an area with the largest concentration of eucalyptus in the region. Secondary data from the IBGE Census for the years 1970, 1980, 1985 and 1996 were used, and also secondary data from surveys conducted around the region studied, including interviews with management of companies and union leadership. The article concludes that, in thirty years, the reforestation concentrated the land and created reduced... |

The EU Framework 7 project “RuralJobs” has used the DPSIR model to show the link between ‘driving forces’ of employment and economic prosperity, and policy responses. These driving forces can be ‘endogenous’ or (neo-) ‘exogenous’ to the territory. They act on the labour market or employment (‘state’) through the ‘pressures’ of jobs (economic activities) and people (the labour force). In turn, the employment rate (jobs per person) influences the ‘impact’ (sustainable economic prosperity). ‘Responses’ can be policy responses or socio-economic responses. A set of 40 indicators was compiled from strategies and programmes relevant to employment in rural areas in the EU. |

The study conducted in the state of Haryana has investigated the impact of implementation of MGNREGA in two districts — one agriculturally-advanced (Karnal) and the other agriculturally-backward (Mewat). Besides demographic characteristics, the paper has investigated the difference in the employment status, income, landholding size, herd size and other assets of the sample farm households in these two districts by taking 120 farm families, 60 from each district. The impact of MGNREGA within a district has also been studied in terms of income and employment security, migration, debt repayment, extent of participation in MGNREGA works, socio-economic status, etc. by seeking information from 30 participating and 30 nonparticipating households in MGNREGA works... |

A statisztikai adatok szerint a magyar mezőgazdaság munkaerő-felhasználása folyamatosan csökken. Cikkünkben rávilágítunk arra az ellentmondásra, ami a deklarált foglalkoztatási célok és a versenyképességet szolgáló gépberuházási támoga¬tások növekedése, valamint hatásai között feszül. E támogatások hozzájárulhatnak ahhoz, hogy a gazdák birtoknövelési törekvéseit erősítsék, s fokozzák a mezőgazdaság munkaerő-kibocsátását. Nem igazán halad a folyamatot potenciálisan mérséklő tevékenységdiverzifikáció sem. Három LEADER kistérségben 104 gazdálkodóra kiterjedő felmérésünkkel feltártuk a gazdák és gazdacsaládok gazdaságfejlesztési motívumait, a gazdaság diverzifikációjának helyzetét, a multifunkciós mezőgazdálkodással kapcsolatos terveiket, s az ezeket segítő és... |

The agricultural sector is India has been characterized with high supply of labour than demand, low wages, skewed distribution of land, and limited options of earning livelihood. This sector has undergone a vast change in recent past, mainly due to the increased rural-to-urban migration and partly due to the inception of MGNREGS and other public works. The structural changes in Indian economy in recent past have made male-migration a lucrative phenomenon while schemes like MGNREGS are found to be attractive for females in rural locations due to various reasons discussed in the paper. This has caused a shortage of farm labour and consequently, an upward push in agricultural wages. The study has suggested that there is a need to implement MGNREGA and other... |

This paper used the X-12 method, seasonal unit root and Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average Model to identify and to model the generator process of rural employment in the state of São Paulo in the period from January 1996 to December 2006. The results show that there is strong seasonal demand for occasional rural employment from April to August for several main harvests. The seasonal unit root test detected the presence of seasonal unit root. This result confirms the presence of a seasonal pattern in the rural employment time series. The ARIMA model caught the rural employment dynamism for occasional workers. It was necessary to add three moving average parameters of small orders, beyond a seasonal moving average parameter, and an autoregressive... |

This paper has studied rural employment diversification in India and across major states using NSSO data at household level for the period 1983 and 2009-10. Factors affecting rural employment diversification towards non-farm sector have also been studied. Analysis has shown that the non-farm sector has consistently grown over time and employed nearly one-third of the rural workforce in 2009-10, as compared to merely one-fifth in 1983 at all-India level. The similar trend is seen across major states as well, though the pace and pattern varied widely. In providing employment to rural workforce, increasing dominance of crop production, followed by animal husbandry was observed across major states during 2009-10. The share of fishery and forestry was... |
