Profiles in poverty: female landless agricultural labour households - 2000 - p.474-84 - 5 Feb
This study attempts to examine the relations of production and household reproduction in two distinctively different regions - wet and dry eco-types - of Tamil Nadu. Caste appears to be a major influence on landless women's participation in rice agriculture. But mainly the play of eco-types in production relation recreated landless households' human poverty. This study challenges the long-held assumption that green revolution wet areas are `green and plentiful' and their primary producers have enough to eat. - Reproduced
