ABSTRACT:
There are two types of hired labour used in Haryana Agriculture i.e. permanent farm servants and casual agricultural labourers. Casual agricultural labourers are generally hired on daily basis and permanent farm servants are employed on annual basis. The permanent farm servant is key component of agricultural hired labour in Haryana. However, there is almost no official data or information about wage rates and number of permanent farm servants unlike wage rates of casual agricultural labourers as we have structured information regarding wage rates of casual agricultural labourers. The main objective of our study is to analyse the variation in the wage rates of permanent farm servants across different zones of Haryana. In closed village labour market, permanent farm servants are employed by generally big farmers for one year from May to April. The analysis of wage rates of permanent farm servants is based on the primary data of 220 randomly selected permanent farm servants from twenty-two villages of Haryana. One village is randomly selected from each district.
