| Summary, etc | This paper presents evidence on the labour supply of agricultural households in the Vidarbha region of Maharashtra, a predominantly rainfed region where agricultural households are dependent on cotton and soybean cultivation. Using panel data of cultivator and labour households over the period from 2019 to 2021 that included the COVID-19 pandemic, our paper adds to the limited empirical evidence on dynamics of labour supply in rural labour markets in general and rainfed regions in particular. Our study finds considerable gendered division in the labour supply as well as in the labour market adjustments of households to cope with income shocks. With the burden of the pandemic and unseasonal rainfall in 2020, cultivator households primarily shifted labour supply from agricultural wage employment to non-farm employment while labour households increased their non-farm labour supply without significantly altering their agricultural wage employment. Among the cultivator households, labour supply response varied considerably by landholding size. The paper also underlines the lack of availability of remunerative and stable non-farm wage employment for agricultural households in the study region.- Reproduced https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s41027-024-00533-1 |
