The Rural Labour Enquiry indicates the socio-economic conditions of the Rural

Labour Households in the country. It also meets the requirements of policy framers,

planners, researchers and Central/State Governments, in respect of policy formulation

and interventions undertaken for upliftment of the Rural Labour. The Enquiry is

conducted on quinquennial basis alongwith the General Employment & Unemployment

and the Household Consumer Expenditure Surveys of the National Sample Survey

Organisation. The current Enquiry was conducted during 61st round (2004-05) of the

NSS. The data collected during the course of the Enquiry are processed by the

Labour Bureau and five reports viz. (i) General Characteristics of Rural Labour

Households; (ii) Wages & Earnings; (iii) Consumption Expenditure; (iv) Indebtedness;

and (v) Employment & Unemployment of Rural Labour Households are brought out for

each round of the NSS.

The Reports on Employment & Unemployment; Wages & Earnings; and

Indebtedness among Rural Labour Households based on 61st round of NSS have

already been released and the remaining one report is expected to be brought shortly.

The current report on General Characteristics analyses various facets of rural labour

households such as family size and its composition by sex, its occupational status,

earning strength, status as regards possession of land, etc. I am confident that the

report will prove to be useful for all stakeholders.

I would like to convey my sincere thanks to the staff and officers of the Field

Operations and Survey Design and Research Divisions of the National Sample Survey

Organisation for their immense contributions in collection and tabulation of data

without which it would not have been possible for us to bring out this report. I would

also like to extend my appreciation to the officers/officials of the R.L.E. Division

(Annexure - III) of the Labour Bureau for putting in sincere efforts in bringing out this

report.

Suggestions for improvement in the contents and presentation of the data in

the report will be appreciated.

SUMMARY OF THE RURAL LABOUR ENQUIRY REPORT ON GENERAL

CHARACTERISTICS OF RURAL LABOUR HOUSEHOLDS (2004–05)

The present report being released by the Labour Bureau on General

Characteristics of Rural Labour Households (RLHs) is based on the NSS 61st Round

Survey (July, 2004 to June, 2005) in which a total of 3,98,025 persons spread over

79,306 rural households in 7,999 villages were covered. The report primarily deals with

demographic structure of labour households, size of a household, land holding pattern,

occupational pattern, number of agricultural and non-agricultural labourers, etc. The

main findings of this report are summarised below:

(i) The estimated number of rural households during 2004–05 was 150.2

million which showed an increase of 9.55 per cent over 1999-2000. The increase was

however different among the different classes of households. The highest growth of

24.66 per cent was shown by the Other Backward Classes. Of the 150.2 million Rural

Households, the RLHs constituted 36.69 per cent or 55.1 million in absolute terms of

which 38.8 million or around 70 per cent were Agricultural Labour Households (ALHs).

(ii) During 2004–05, the RLHs decreased by 0.07% as compared to

previous survey (1999-2000). Among RLHs, all the social classes households except

Other Backward Classes households have registered a decline over 1999-2000.

However, the maximum decline of 13.79 per cent was registered by Other Households.

During this period, the ALHs also observed a decline of 12.27 per cent. Among ALHS,

all the social classes of households showed a declining trend during 2004-05 over

1999-2000. The maximum decline was however that of Other Households (23.20 per

cent), followed by Scheduled Caste Households (15.39 per cent).

(iii) The average size of the rural labour household, at all-India level, showed

a marginal decline from 4.67 in 1999-2000 to 4.56 in 2004–05. A similar trend was also

observed in case of agriculture labour households. The average size of ALHs fell from

4.65 to 4.50 during the same period.

(iv) During 2004–05, at all-India level, 42.80 per cent of the Rural

Households were without cultivated land as against 40.85 per cent in the previous

survey. The proportion of households without cultivated land in respect of the

Scheduled Castes, the Scheduled Tribes and Other Backward Classes of households

were 57.42 per cent, 33.58 per cent and 40.71% respectively.

(v) The land holding pattern of the RLHs also revealed that a majority of the

households did not own cultivated land. At all-India level, 62.80 percent of the

households, comprising of 69.53 per cent, 51.86 per cent and 61.79 per cent of the

SCs, STs and OBCs households respectively were reported to be without cultivated

land in 2004–05. A similar pattern of land holding was observed in the case of ALHs

also.

(vi) A continuous decline in the average size of cultivated land has been

observed for quite some time. The average size of land cultivated by RLHs at all-India

level has come down to to 0.12 hectare in 2004–05 as against 0.18 hectare in 1999-

2000 and 0.23 hectare in 1993-94. Almost similar trend was observed in the case of

ALHs also.

(vii) The occupational pattern of the RLHs reflected that a majority of the

members were without occupation. During 2004–05, out of the average household size

of 4.56 persons, at all-India level, 2.59 persons were without occupation, 1.32 were

engaged in agricultural labour, 0.41 in non-agricultural labour and 0.24 in other

occupations.

(viii) In the case of the households pertaining to weaker classes of the society

also, a majority of the members were without occupation. At all-India level, out of the

average household size of 4.64, 4.51 and 4.50 persons respectively for Scheduled

Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Other Backward Classes of RLHs, 2.69, 2.28 and 2.54

persons were without occupation.

(ix) During 2004-05, the total number of agricultural labourers in RLHs, at all-

India level, was estimated at 72.67 million as compared to 79.63 million in 1999-2000.

Out of this, about 60.83 per cent were males, 37.49 per cent were females and 1.68 per

cent were children.

During this period there has been a sharp decline in the incidence of child

labour. At all-India level, the decline was observed to the tune of 41.97 per cent.

However, increasing trend was noticed in the states of Gujarat (33.33 percent), Punjab

(9.52 per cent).

(x) The number of non-agricultural labourers in RLHs in 2004–05 was

estimated at 22.54 million which was 37.37 per cent higher than the level of 1999-2000

(16.41 million). As compared to the previous survey, the number of male labourers

increased by 36.67 per cent and females by 44.13 per cent and children by 07.80 per

cent.

CHAPTER - I

SCOPE AND METHOD OF ENQUIRY

1. Introduction

1.1 India is a land of villages as around two-third of the total labour force in the country lives in the rural areas. Wage paid employment is the main source of their livelihood. It has been the endeavour of the Government of India to alleviate poverty, particularly in the rural areas, by formulating and implementing various targeted poverty alleviation and rural development programmes. For formulating appropriate policies and programmes, sound data base is of utmost importance. The Government of India had recognised the need for sound data base during early years of independence itself and conducted first Agricultural Labour Enquiry (ALE) in the year 1950-51, followed by the second Enquiry in the year 1956-57. Thereafter, the scope of the subsequent enquiries was enlarged to cover all rural labour households, instead of agricultural labour households alone covered in the first two enquiries. Hence, the third enquiry in the series known as the ‘First Rural Labour Enquiry (RLE)’ was conducted in the year 1963-65 followed by the second in 1974-75, the third in 1977-78, the fourth in 1983, the fifth in 1987-88, the sixth in 1993-94, the seventh in 1999-2000 and the eighth in 2004–05. With a view to narrowing down the gap between the successive rounds of the Enquiries, the RLE was integrated with the General Employment & Unemployment Survey of the NSSO in the year 1977-78 and all subsequent enquiries are now being conducted quinquennially to provide continuous data in the form of a time series.

1.2 During the course of the Rural Labour Enquiries, data on various socio-economic aspects viz, Employment & Unemployment; Consumption Expenditure; Wages & Earnings; and Indebtedness of rural and agricultural labourers are collected by Field Operation Division (FOD) of the National Sample Survey Organisation(NSSO) through its network of zonal, regional and sub-regional offices located all over the Country. Under these enquiries, data are collected and analysed for rural labour as a whole. However, in order to enable comparison with the previous rounds of enquiries and also to understand problems of this segment, which constitutes bulk of the rural labour, the analysis are presented for agricultural labour separately. The Labour Bureau is responsible for processing and dissemination of data, collected under RLE. The results of the latest Rural Labour Enquiry, the eighth in the series, for which the field work was undertaken by the NSSO (FOD) during its 61st Round Survey (July, 2004 to June, 2005), are being published in the form of the following five reports :-

i) Employment and Unemployment of Rural Labour Households;

ii) Wages and Earnings of Rural Labour Households;

iii) Indebtedness among Rural Labour Households;

iv) General Characteristics of Rural Labour Households; and

v) Consumption Expenditure of Rural Labour Households.

2

1.3 The usefulness of the data thrown up by the Rural Labour Enquiries has been acknowledged by various Committees and Commissions from time to time. The National Commission on Labour (1969) and the National Commission on Rural Labour (1991) have recommended that the periodic surveys undertaken by the Government to understand the rural situation should be continued and intensified. The second National Commission on Labour (1999) recommended that the Rural Labour Enquiries should be conducted more frequently. 2. Objectives

2.1 The main objectives of the enquiry are:

i) To provide up-to-date serial data on demographic structure, extent of employment & unemployment, wages and earnings, household consumption expenditure, indebtedness, etc. for building up of reliable estimates of important socio-economic characteristics of rural labour in general and agricultural labour in particular.

ii) To provide data relating to consumption expenditure for derivation of weighting diagrams for updating the series of CPI numbers for agricultural and rural labourers.

3. Scope

The Rural Labour Enquiry relates to all rural labour households. However, provision has been made in the tabulation plan to get separate estimates for agricultural labour households and rural labour households.

4. Geographical Coverage

The survey covered the whole of the Indian Union, except (i) Leh (Ladakh) and Kargil districts of Jammu & Kashmir, (ii) interior villages of Nagaland situated beyond 5 Kms. of the bus route, and (iii) villages in Andaman & Nicobar Islands which are inaccessible throughout the year.

5. Concepts and Definitions The important concepts and definitions adopted for the survey are as follows:-

(i) Household

A household is a group of persons normally living together and taking food from a common kitchen. A boarding and lodging house, a hotel or a hostel is treated as a cluster of households where each individual boarder (with his dependants or guests) forms a separate household. Households maintained and fed directly by institutional bodies such as those in prisons, police quarters, cantonments, hospitals, asylums, relief camps are, however, excluded from the scope of the survey.

(ii) Household Members

Any person who is a normal resident of the sample household is considered to be a member of the household. The members of a household may or may not be related by blood to one another. Accordingly, any person who usually lives and takes the principal meals with the household is also considered a member of the household.

3

(iii) Household Size

The number of normally resident members of a household formed the size of the household. It included temporary stay-aways but excluded temporary visitors and guests.

(iv) Rural Labour Household

A household was classified as a rural labour household if its major source of income during the last 365 days preceding the survey was more from wage paid manual labour (agricultural and/or non-agricultural) than either from paid non-manual employment or from self-employment. Rural labour households include agricultural labour households also.

(v) Agricultural Labour Household

Of the households which are initially classified as `Rural Labour Households’, those deriving 50 percent or more of their total income from wage paid manual labour in agricultural activities are treated as agricultural labour households.

(vi) Rural Labour Households with Cultivated Land

A household with cultivated land, either owned or taken on lease, was treated as household with land. Cultivated land was taken to mean the net area sown during the last calendar year (i.e. July to June) preceding the year of enquiry and included orchards and current fallows.

(vii) Land Possessed

Land possessed means land ‘owned’ (including land under ‘owned-like possession’) and includes land ‘leased in’ but excludes land ‘leased out’ and any land held by the household which is neither owned nor leased in (e.g. encroached land etc.).

(viii) Manual Work

A job essentially involving physical labour is considered as manual work. However, jobs essentially involving physical labour but also requiring a certain level of general, professional, scientific or technical education are not to be termed as manual work. On the other hand, jobs not involving much of physical labour and at the same time not requiring much educational background, are to be treated as manual work. Thus, engineers, doctors, dentists, midwives, etc. are not considered as manual workers even though their jobs involve some amount of physical labour. But, peons, chowkidars, watchmen, etc., are considered as manual workers even though their work may not involve much physical labour.

(ix) Wage Paid Manual Labour

A person who does manual work in return for wages in cash or kind or partly in cash and partly in kind (excluding exchange labour) is a wage paid manual labour. Salaries are also to be counted as wages. A person who is self-employed in manual work is not treated as a wage paid manual labour.

(x) Rural Labour

A Rural Labourer is defined as ‘one who does manual work in rural areas in agricultural and/or non-agricultural occupation in return for wages in cash or kind, or partly

4

in cash and partly in kind.’ The term ‘wages’ included salary also. Any person who was self employed, though in manual work, was not treated as a wage paid manual rural labourer. Exchange labour was also excluded.

(xi) Agricultural Labour

A person was treated as an agricultural labourer if he/she followed one or more of the following agricultural occupations in the capacity of a labourer on hire, whether paid wholly in cash or kind or partly in cash and partly in kind;

(a) farming including cultivation, tillage, etc.

(b) dairy farming;

(c) production, cultivation, growing and harvesting of any horticultural commodity;

(d) raising of livestock, bee-keeping or poultry farming;

(e) any practice performed on a farm as incidental to or in conjunction with farm operations (including any forestry or timbering) and the preparation for market and delivery to storage or to market or to carriage for transportation to market of farm products.

It might be noted that manual work in fisheries was excluded from the purview of the

category of agricultural labour. Further, carriage for transportation coming under the category (e) above, referred only to the first stage of transportation from farm to the first stage of disposal. (xii) Wages and Salary Earnings

Information on wage and salary earnings was collected separately for each of the wage/salaried work recorded for a person in a day. Here, earnings refer to the wage/salary income (and not total earnings taking into consideration of all other activities done) received/receivable for the wage/salaried work done during the reference week by a wage/salaried employee and casual labourer. The wage/salary received or receivable may be in cash or kind or partly in cash and partly in kind. While recording the earnings following conventions were followed.

a) The wages in kind were evaluated at the current retail price.

b) Bonus and perquisites such as free accommodation, reimbursement of expenditure for medical treatment, free telephone, etc. evaluated at the cost of the employer or at retail prices and duly apportioned for the reference week were also included in earnings.

c) Amount receivable as ‘over-time’ for the additional work done beyond normal working time was excluded.

It may be noted that in the survey, at most two activities could be recorded for a

person in a day. Therefore, it is possible that a person might have carried out two or more wage/salaried activities in a day, but only one activity or two activities at the most, depending upon the time spent on those activities, was recorded. In that case, the wage/salary income only from that activity(s) was collected and recorded separately, and not the total income of the person from all the activities done for the entire day.

5

(xiii) Economic Activity

The entire spectrum of human activity falls into two categories – economic activities and non-economic activities. Any activity resulting in production of goods and services that adds value to the national product was considered as an economic activity for the employment and unemployment survey of NSS 61st round. Such activities included production of all goods and services for market (i.e. for pay or profit) including those of government services, and, the production of primary commodities for own consumption and own account production of fixed assets. (xiv) Usual Occupation

The usual occupation of a person was the economic activity which he may be pursuing during the major part of the 365 days preceding the date of the survey. (xv) Activity Status

It is the activity situation in which a person was found during the reference period with regard to the person’s participation in economic and non-economic activities. According to this, a person could be in one or a combination of the following three broad activity statuses during a reference period:

(i) working or being engaged in economic activity (work) as defined above,

(ii) being not engaged in economic activity ( work) but either making tangible efforts to seek ’work’ or being available for ‘work’ if the ‘work’ is available, and

(iii) being not engaged in any economic activity (work) and also not available for ‘work’.

Broad activity statuses mentioned in (I) and (ii) above are associated with ‘being in labour force’ and the last with ’not being in the labour force’. Within the labour force, broad activity status (I) & (ii) were associated with ‘employment‘ and ‘unemployment’ respectively.

(xvi) Workers (or Employed) Persons who were engaged in any economic activity or who, despite their attachment to economic activity, abstained from work for reason of illness, injury or other physical disability, bad weather, festivals, social or religious functions or other contingencies necessitating temporary absence from work constituted ‘workers’. Unpaid helpers who assisted in the operation of an economic activity in the household farm or non-farm activities were also considered as workers. (xvii) Seeking or Available for Work (or Unemployed) Persons, who owing to lack of work, had not worked but either sought work through employment exchanges, intermediaries, friends or relatives or by making applications to the prospective employers or expressed their willingness or availability for work under the prevailing condition or work and remunerations, were considered as those who were ‘seeking or available for work’ (or unemployed). (xviii) Labour Force Persons who were either ‘working’ (or employed) or ‘seeking or available for work’ (or unemployed) during the reference period together constitute the ‘labour force’. Persons who were neither ‘working’ and at the same time nor ‘seeking or available for work’ for various reasons during the reference period were considered to be ‘out of labour force’. The persons

6

under this category are students, those engaged in domestic duties, rentiers, pensioners, recipients of remittances, those living on alms, infirm or disabled persons, too young or too old persons, prostitutes, etc. and casual labourers not working due to sickness. (xix) Self-Employed

Persons who operated their own farm or non-farm enterprises or were engaged

independently in a profession or trade on own-account or with one or a few partners were deemed to be self-employed in household enterprises. The essential feature of the self-employed is that they have autonomy (i.e., how, where and when to produce) and economic independence (i.e., market, scale of operation and money) for carrying out their operation. The remuneration received by them comprised two parts – share of their labour and profit of the enterprise. In other words, their remuneration was determined wholly or mainly by sales or profits of the goods or services which were produced. Self-employed persons were categorised as follows:

a) Own-account workers: those self-employed persons who operated their

enterprises on their own account or with one or a few partners and who, during the reference period, by and large, ran their enterprise without hiring any labour. They could, however, have had unpaid helpers to assist them in the activity of the enterprise;

b) Employers: those self-employed persons who worked on their own account or

with one or a few partners and, who, by and large, ran their enterprise by hiring labour; and

c) Helpers in household enterprise: those self-employed persons (mostly family

members) who were engaged in their household enterprises, working full or part time and did not receive any regular salary or wages in return for the work performed. They did not run the household enterprise on their own but assisted the related person living in the same household in running the household enterprise.

(xx) Regular Salaried/Wage Employees

Persons working in other’s farm or non-farm enterprises, both household and non-household and getting in return salary or wages on a regular basis (and not on the basis of daily or periodic renewal of work contract) are the ’regular salaried/wage employees’. This category not only includes persons getting time wage but also persons receiving piece rate wage salary and paid apprentices, both full time and part-time.

(xxi) Casual Labour A person casually engaged in other’s farm or non-farm enterprises (both household

and non household) and getting in return wage according to the terms of the daily or periodic work contract is a ‘casual labour’. Depending on whether they are so employed in ‘public works’ sponsored by government agencies or local bodies or in other types of work, the casual workers are classified into two groups viz. casual labour in public works and casual workers in other types of work. (xxii) Children

Persons below 15 years of age have been treated as children.

6. Period of the Survey The enquiry was integrated with the 61st Round of the N.S.S. during the period 1st July, 2004 to 30th June, 2005, which was divided into 4 sub-rounds each of three months duration. 7. Sampling Design and Sample Size 7.1 Outline of the sampling design: A stratified multi-stage sampling design has been adopted for the 61st round survey. The first stage units (FSU) are the 2001 census villages in the rural sector and Urban Frame Survey (UFS) blocks in the urban sector. The ultimate stage units (USU) are households in both the sectors. In the case of large villages/blocks requiring hamlet-group (hg)/sub-block (sb) formation, one intermediate stage is the selection of two hgs/sbs from each FSU. 7.2 Sampling Frame for First Stage Units: For the rural sector, the list of 2001 census villages (panchayat wards for Kerala) constitutes the sampling frame. For the urban sector, the list of latest available Urban Frame Survey (UFS) blocks has been considered as the sampling frame. 7.3 Stratification: Within each district of a State/UT, two basic strata have been formed: i) rural stratum comprising of all rural areas of the district and (ii) urban stratum comprising all the urban areas of the district. However, if there are one or more towns with population 10 lakh or more as per population census 2001 in a district, each of them will also form a separate basic stratum and the remaining urban areas of the district will be considered as another basic stratum. There are 27 towns with population 10 lakh or more at all-India level as per census 2001. 7.4 Sub-stratification 7.4.1 Rural sector: If ‘r’ be the sample size allocated for a rural stratum, the number of sub-strata formed is ‘r/2’. The villages within a district as per frame have been first arranged in ascending order of population. Then sub-strata 1 to ‘r/2’ have been demarcated in such a way that each sub-stratum comprises a group of villages of the arranged frame and has more or less equal population. 7.5 Total sample size (FSUs): 12784 FSUs have been allocated at all-India level on the basis of Investigator strength in different States/UTs for central sample and 14992 for state sample. 7.6 Allocation of total sample to States and UTs: The total number of sample FSUs is allocated to the States and UTs in proportion to population as per census 2001 subject to the availability of Investigators ensuring more or less uniform work-load. 7.7 Allocation of State/UT level sample to rural and urban sectors: State/UT level sample size is allocated between two sectors in proportion to population as per census 2001 with 1.5 weightage to urban sector subject to the restriction that urban sample size for bigger states like Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu etc. should not exceed the rural sample size. A minimum of 8 FSUs has been allocated to each state/UT separately for rural and urban areas. 7.8 Allocation to strata: Within each sector of a State/UT, the respective sample size is allocated to the different strata in proportion to the stratum population as per census 2001. Allocations at stratum level have been adjusted to a multiple of 4 with a minimum sample size of 4.

8

7.9 Selection of FSUs: Two FSUs have been selected from each sub-stratum of a district of rural sector with Probability Proportional to Size With Replacement (PPSWR), size being the population as per Population Census 2001. For urban sector, two FSUs have been selected from each sub-stratum by using Simple Random Sampling Without Replacement (SRSWOR). Within each sub-stratum, samples have been drawn in the form of two independent sub-samples in both the rural and urban sectors.

7.10 Selection of hamlet-groups/sub-blocks/households 7.10.1 Criterion for hamlet-group/sub-block formation: Large villages/blocks having approximate present population of 1200 or more will be divided into a suitable number (say, D) of ‘hamlet-groups’ in the rural sector and ‘sub-blocks’ in the urban sector as stated below.

approximate present population of the sample village/block

no. of hgs/sbs to be formed (D)

less than 1200 (no. hamlet-groups/sub-blocks) 1

1200 to 1799 3

1800 to 2399 4

2400 to 2999 5

3000 to 3599 6

..…….…………..and so on

For rural areas of Himachal Pradesh, Sikkim and Poonch, Rajouri, Udhampur, Doda districts of Jammu and Kashmir and Idukki district of Kerala, the number of hamlet-groups formed is as follows.

approximate present population of the sample village

no. of hgs to be formed

less than 600 (no hamlet-groups) 1

600 to 899 3

900 to 1199 4

1200 to 1499 5

.………..and so on Two hamlet-groups/sub-blocks are selected from a large village/UFS block wherever

hamlet-groups/sub-blocks have been formed, by SRSWOR. Listing and selection of the households are done independently in the two selected hamlet-groups/sub-blocks. In case hamlet-groups/sub-blocks are to be formed in the sample FSU, the same would be done by more or less equalizing population.

7.11 Formation of Second Stage Strata and allocation of households

For both Schedule 1.0 and Schedule 10, households listed in the selected village/block/ hamlet-groups/sub-blocks are stratified into three second stage strata (SSS) as given below.

9

The three second-stage-strata (SSS) in the rural sector are formed in the following order:-

SSS 1: relatively affluent households

SSS 2: from the remaining households, households having principal earning from non-agricultural activity

SSS 3: other households The number of households to be surveyed in each FSU is 10 for each of the schedules 1.0 and 10. Composition of SSS with number of households to be surveyed for both schedule 1.0 and schedule 10 are as follows:

SSS composition of SSS no. of hhs to be surveyed

without hg/sb formation

with hg/sb formation (for each hg/sb)

SSS 1: relatively affluent households 2 1

SSS 2: of the rest, households having principal earning from non- agricultural activity

4 2

SSS 3: other households 4 2

7.12. Selection of households for Schedules 1.0 and 10: From each SSS the sample households for both the schedules are selected by SRSWOR. If a household is selected both for schedule 1.0 and schedule 10, only schedule 1.0 would be canvassed in that household and the sample household for schedule 10 would be replaced by next household in the frame for schedule 10. 7.13 Sample Size: A total of 3,98,025 persons belonging to 79,306 households spread over 7,999 villages were surveyed. The number of sample villages, households and persons surveyed in different States/Union Territories and all-India for rural sector are set out in the Table-1.

CHAPTER II

STRUCTURE OF HOUSEHOLDS

This chapter mainly deals with the demographic structure of the Rural/Agricultural Labour Households of various sections viz.; ‘All Classes’, ‘Scheduled Castes’, ‘Scheduled Tribes’ and ‘Other Backward Classes’ of the society which primarily contains estimated number of households and household size (sex-wise) at all-India level and also the state level. The analysis of these details in the succeeding pages have been presented for the current survey (2004-05) as well as the previous survey (1999-2000) so that the factual position of the Rural Labour Households between the two survey periods could be known. ESTIMATED NUMBER OF HOUSEHOLDS The total estimated number of Rural Households, Rural Labour Households (RLHs) and Agricultural Labour Households (ALHs) in respect of Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, Other Backward Classes and Other Households for the two survey periods, at all-India level, are given below in Table 2.1

During 2004-05, the total number of Rural Households (RHs) at all-India level was estimated at 150.2 million of which 32.6 million were Scheduled Castes; 16.1 million Scheduled Tribes; 63.0 million Other Backward Classes, and 38.5 million Other Classes of Households. As compared to previous survey, the estimated number of rural households during 2004-05 registered an increase of 9.55 percent. Amongst various classes of households, Other Backward Classes showed the highest growth of 24.66 percent followed by the Scheduled Caste Households (7.26 percent) and the Scheduled Tribe Households (6.20 percent). However, Other Households showed a decline of 6.16 percent. The RLHs

14

which is the main segment of the study constituted 36.69 percent of the total RHs. Of the 55.1 million RLHs, 18.2 million were those of the Scheduled Castes, followed by Scheduled Tribes (7.3 million), Other Backward Classes (20.6 million) and Other Households (9.0 million). During 2004-05, all these social classes except Other Backward Classes households have registered a decline over 1999-2000. However, the maximum decline of 13.79 percent registered by Other Households. The Other Backward Classes households however showed an increase of 10.00 percent during the same period.

Among the RLHs, a sizeable number was of the Agricultural Labour Households (ALHs) which constituted around 70 percent (38.8 million out of 55.1 million). All the social classes of ALHs showed a decline during 2004-05 over 1999-2000. However, the maximum decline was that of Other Households (23.20 percent), followed by Scheduled Caste Households (15.39 percent). a) All Classes:

Statement 2.1(1) depicts state-wise distribution of estimated number of RHs, RLHs and ALHs for the period 1999-2000 and 2004-05. The analysis has been restricted to 15 major states viz; Andhra Pradesh, Assam, Bihar, Gujarat, Haryana, Karnataka, Kerala, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Orissa, Punjab, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, Uttar Pradesh and West Bengal only as these states taken together accounted for 80 percent of the sample households. Though the estimated number of RLHs at national level revealed a decline of 0.07 percent during 2004-05 over previous survey, it revealed positive growth in many states. Among them, Punjab was on the top with an increase of 30.10 percent followed by Rajasthan (28.18 percent). The other states which recorded more than 10 percent increase were Gujarat (10.41 percent), Haryana (18.21 percent), Karnataka (10.91 percent), and Kerala (14.96 percent). On the other hand, Bihar observed the maximum decline of 14.64 percent, followed by Tamil Nadu (13.51 percent) and Orissa (11.37 percent).

Though, at all-India level, the decline in estimated number of ALHs also depicted a declining trend, it was faster than RLHs. The decline observed by ALHs was to the tune of 12.27 percent. Among 15 states, the highest decrease during 2004-05 over 1999-2000 was recorded in Orissa (27.25 percent) followed by 24.18 percent in Uttar Pradesh. The other states with a significant decrease were Tamil Nadu (23.02 percent), Haryana (21.77 percent), Bihar (17.85 percent) and Maharashtra (10.51 percent). The states which observed an increasing trend were Karnataka (4.72 percent), Gujarat (4.65 percent) and Rajasthan (1.79 percent). b) Scheduled Castes:

Statement 2.1(2) presents the state-wise estimated number of the Scheduled Caste Households among the RLHs and ALHs for the period 1999-2000 and 2004-05. During 2004-05, the estimated number of Scheduled Caste Rural Labour Households, at all-India level, showed the decrease of 2.26 percent over the previous survey. Amongst states, Tamil Nadu recorded the highest decrease of 27.29 percent followed by Andhra Pradesh 14.57 percent. The other states which registered an appreciable decrease in the number of the Scheduled Caste Rural Labour Households were Bihar (11.79 percent), Orissa (11.70 percent), Uttar Pradesh (8.13 percent). On the other hand there were certain states which showed an increase in number of Scheduled Caste Rural Labour Households. Among them Rajasthan was on the top with 59.42 percent increase followed by Madhya Pradesh (34.33 percent) and Kerala (28.79 percent) during 2004-05 over 1999-2000. The estimated number of Scheduled Caste ALHs, at all-India level, recorded a decrease of 15.39 percent over previous survey. At state level the highest decrease was recorded in Uttar Pradesh (36.30 percent) followed by Tamil Nadu (30.60 percent), Orissa (23.22 percent) and Andhra Pradesh (18.11 percent). However, there were some states

15

which showed an increasing trend and the major among them were Rajasthan (16.50 percent), Madhya Pradesh (16.14 percent), Assam (14.08 percent) andGujrat (9.13 percent). c) Scheduled Tribes:

Household details of the Scheduled Tribes are given in Statement 2.1(3) at national level as also state wise. The total estimated number of the Scheduled Tribe Households during 2004-05 was 16077 thousand which accounted for 10.71 percent of the total estimated Rural Households. Of 16077 thousand Scheduled Tribe Households, 7284 thousand were Scheduled Tribe RLHs, 75.62 percent of which were concentrated in seven states viz; Andhra Pradesh, Gujrat, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Orissa, Rajasthan and West Bengal. During 2004-05, the number of Scheduled Tribe RLHs, at all-India level, showed a decline of about 0.82 percent over the previous survey. The highest decrease was however observed in Haryana (100 percent) followed by Punjab (66.67 percent), Tamil Nadu (51.81 percent) and Bihar (29.27 percent). The states which reflected positive growth were Kerala (73.08 percent), West Bengal (70.52 percent), Andhra Pradesh (28.95 percent) and Karnataka (20.11 percent).

The estimated number of the Scheduled Tribe ALHs constituted about 3.64 percent of the total Rural Households during the current survey period. ALHs being the sub-set of the RLHs, the trend at all-India level as well as at state level was almost similar to that of the RLHs. The analysis across the states revealed 100 percent decrease in number of the Scheduled Castes households in Haryana followed by Punjab (77.78 percent), Tamil Nadu (48.39 percent) and Bihar (38.75 percent). The states showing an increasing trend were Kerala (126.47 percent), West Bengal (55.53 percent), Uttar Pradesh (29.63 percent) and Andhra Pradesh (24.11 percent). At the national level, though it also depicted the declining trend, the decline (8.96 percent) was however faster than RLHs ( 0.82 percent) in 2004-05 over 1999-2000. d) Other Backward Classes:

The details of estimated number of rural households at all-India level as also state wise in respect of Other Backward Classes are presented in Statement 2.1(4). The Other Backward Classes RLHs which accounted for about 13.74 percent of the total estimated Rural Households increased to 20638 thousand in 2004-05. About 72 percent of these households were concentrated in seven states viz; Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Karnataka, Kerala, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu and Uttar Pradesh. This observation holds true in respect of the ALHs also which accounted for around 74 percent of the total Agricultural Labour Households. The increase in Other Backward Classes Rural Labour Households was the highest in Punjab (67.69 percent) followed by Gujarat (50.59 percent), Rajasthan (50.00 percent), Kerala (23.89 percent) and Uttar Pradesh (22.59 percent). However, the maximum decrease was noticed in Bihar (10.98 percent) followed by Haryana (9.05 percent). SIZE OF HOUSEHOLDS (i) Rural Labour Households (RLHs) a) All Classes:

The average size of all classes of the RLHs are depicted in Statement 2.2(1) for all States/UTs and all-India. The household size at all-India level decreased to 4.56 persons during 2004-05 from 4.67 in 1999-2000. So far as the composition of the household is concerned it consisted of 1.45 men, 1.44 women and 1.67 children.

16

A look at the state-level household size revealed a decreasing trend in case of all major states except Bihar, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh where it recorded an increase from 4.84, 5.14 and 5.14 persons in 1999-2000 to 4.88, 5.15 and 5.25 in 2004-05 respectively. The largest household size of 5.25 persons comprising 1.43 men, 1.42 women and 2.40 children was observed in Uttar Pradesh followed by Rajasthan (5.15), Punjab (4.97) and Assam, and Madhya Pradesh (4.91 each). The lowest household size of 3.79 persons, consisting of 1.28 men, 1.38 women and 1.13 children, was recorded in Tamil Nadu. The household size of other major states ranged between 3.90 and 4.85 persons.

b) Scheduled Castes:

Statement 2.2(2) depicts average size of the RLHs belonging to the Scheduled

Castes for the period 1999-2000 and 2004-05. At all-india level the average size of the Scheduled Castes RLHs decreased from 4.66 in 1999-2000 to 4.65 in 2004-05.

The analysis across the states also indicated a mixed trend in average size of the households in all major states, i.e. out of 15 major states, it increased in 6 states and decreased in 9 states. The largest household size of 5.25 persons, consisting of 1.46 men, 1.44 women and 2.35 children, was noticed in Uttar Pradesh followed by Rajasthan (5.19) and Punjab (5.09). The lowest household size of 3.89 persons was recorded in Tamil Nadu. In other major states it was between 4.01 and 5.04 persons.

c) Scheduled Tribes:

The household size detail of the Scheduled Tribe RLHs has been presented in Statement 2.2(3). At all-India level, the average size of the Scheduled Tribe RLHs was 4.51 persons comprising of 1.41 men, 1.41 women and 1.69 children in 2004-05 as against 4.73 persons (1.40 men, 1.43 women and 1.90 children) in1999-2000.

Among major states, Rajasthan had the largest household size of 5.29 persons

comprising of 1.45 men, 1.44 women and 2.40 children. The second largest household size was in Madhya Pradesh (5.01) followed by Gujarat (4.91). The smallest household size of 3.25 persons consisting of 1.09 men, 0.85 women and 1.31 children was noticed in Bihar. In other states it ranged between 3.71 and 4.60 persons.

d) Other Backward Classes:

Statement 2.2(4) contains the household size details of Other Backward Classes. At all-India level, it was 4.50 persons consisting of 1.43 men, 1.45 women and 1.62 children. Among the major states, the largest size of 5.23 persons was observed in Uttar Pradesh followed by Bihar (5.07) and Rajasthan (5.02). The smallest household size of 3.72 persons comprising of 1.31 men, 1.35 women and 1.06 children was observed in Tamil Nadu. In other states, it ranged between 3.95 and 4.96. (ii) Agricultural Labour Households: The sex wise average size of ALHs of All Classes, Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Other Backward Classes Households have been presented in Statements 2.3(1) to 2.3(4). The average size of All Classes of Household at all-India level during 2004-05 was 4.50 persons as against 4.65 in 1999-2000. Similarly, the decrease was observed in the household size of the Scheduled Castes (4.64 to 4.58 persons), Scheduled Tribes (4. 65 to 4.41 persons) and Other Backward Classes (4.61 to 4.45). The state-level trend in household structure of ALHs found almost similar to that of the RLHs.

CHAPTER III

PATTERN OF LAND HOLDING

The pattern of land holding among different classes and categories of Rural Households has been discussed in this chapter. The details inter-aila enable us to know, State-wise as well as all-India level, the percentage of land-less households and also the size of cultivated land a Rural Labour Household owns. The cultivated land has been taken as the net sown area under different crops during a given period. The land possessed includes land owned; (+) land leased in; (-) land leased out, and (+) any land held by the household which is neither owned nor leased in (i.e. encroached land, etc.). POSSESSION OF CULTIVATED LAND: a) All Classes :

Statement 3.1 (1) depicts the percentage distribution of All Rural Households; Rural Labour Households, and Agricultural Labour Households with & without cultivated land during the period 2004-05. During 2004-05, at all-India level, 57.20 percent of the Rural Households possessed the cultivated land as against 59.15 percent during the previous survey (1999-2000). Among the major states, the highest percentage of households possessing cultivated land was found in Assam (75.69 percent) followed by Rajasthan (74.04 percent) and Uttar Pradesh (71.81 percent). On the other hand, Tamil Nadu showed the lowest percentage of households with cultivated land (28.17 percent). As compared to 1999-2000 during 2004-05 the percentage of households holding cultivated land had gone up in the case of Assam (64.42 percent to 75.69 percent) and West Bengal (50.21 percent to 52.55 percent).

As regards Rural Labour Households, at all-India level, 37.20 percent of the households possessed the cultivated land during 2004-05 as against 41.20 percent during the last survey. Among the major states, the highest percentage of households with cultivated land was observed in Rajasthan (58.44 percent) succeeded by Orissa (52.52 percent), Kerala (52.26 percent), Assam (51.11 percent) and Uttar Pradesh (51.07 percent). The lowest percentage was found in Punjab (3.89 percent).

In respect of Agricultural Labour Households, 38.28 percent of the households at national level had the cultivated land which in comparison to previous survey (42.67 percent) was on lower side. Position with regard to possession of cultivated land across the states was not very different from that of RLHs. In Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Gujarat, Haryana, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Punjab and Tamil Nadu, the proportion of ALHs with cultivated land was less than the national level of 38.28 percent.

b) Scheduled Castes :

Statement 3.1(2) shows the state-wise percentage distribution of the Scheduled Caste Households with and without cultivated land. At all-India level, 42.58 percent of All Rural Households had cultivated land in 2004-05 as against 44.45 percent in 1999-2000. Amongst major states, the percentage of households with cultivated land was the highest in Assam (72.79 percent) followed by Uttar Pradesh (63.64 percent), Rajasthan (54.91 percent). The lowest was in Haryana (5.52 percent).

18

c) Scheduled Tribes : The percentage distribution of Scheduled Tribes Households with & without cultivated land has been shown in Statement 3.1(3). It has been observed that among various classes, the Scheduled Tribe Households had the largest percentage of households possessing cultivated land during the current survey. At all-India level, 66.42 percent of all Rural Households, 48.14 percent of Rural Labour Households and 45.56 percent of Agricultural Labour Households had cultivated land. Amongst major states the highest proportion of households with cultivated land was reported from Assam (89.35 percent) followed by Rajasthan (88.91 percent), and Haryana (81.70 percent).

d) Other Backward Classes : The Statement 3.1(4) presents percentage distribution of Other Backward Classes Households with and without cultivated land. At all-India level, majority of the Rural Households possessed cultivated land as compared to the Rural Labour Households and Agricultural Labour Households. The percentages of land possessed by them were 59.29 percent, 38.21 percent and 40.39 percent respectively. Among the major states, rural labour households of West Bengal possessed the highest percentage of cultivated land (58.94 percent) followed by Uttar Pradesh (55.27 percent), Orissa (54.14 percent), Kerala (52.98 percent) and Rajasthan (52.83 percent). The lowest percentage of households with land was that of Punjab (4.46 percent). In respect of Agricultural Labour Households, West Bengal with 70.41 percent was at number one followed by Uttar Pradesh (60.45 percent). Here also Punjab & Haryana were at the lowest level with 5.52 percent and 8.76 percent households respectively with cultivated land.

RURAL LABOUR HOUSEHOLDS AND OWNERSHIP OF LAND Statement 3.2(1) shows the percentage distribution of Scheduled Caste RLHs with and without cultivated land as a proportion of total Rural Households, Rural Labour Households and Agricultural Labour Households. It reveals that at the national level, 21.68 percent of All Rural Households belonged to the Scheduled Caste RLHs out of which 9.23 percent possessed cultivated land and 12.45 percent were without cultivated land.

As regards Rural Labour Households, 33.06 percent households belonged to the social class of Scheduled Castes, majority of whom (22.99 percent) were without cultivated land. Amongst major states, the proportion of the Scheduled Caste RLHs to total RLHs was the highest in Punjab (69.33 percent) followed by Haryana (64.83 percent) and Uttar Pradesh (49.57 percent). The lowest proportion was found in Assam (10.99 percent).

In the case of ALHs, 34.04 percent of the households at all-India level belonged to

the Scheduled Castes of which only 10.64 percent possessed cultivated land. Similar details in respect of the Scheduled Tribe RLHs have been presented in

Statement 3.2(2). At all-India level, 10.70 percent of Rural Households (7.11 percent with land & 3.59 percent without land) belonged to the Scheduled Tribes category. Among the Rural Labour Households this percentage was 13.22 (6.36 percent with land and 6.86 percent without land). The Agricultural Labour Households had still higher proportion i.e. 14.10 percent (6.42 percent with land and 7.68 percent without land) of the Scheduled Tribe Households.

19

Among the major states, the proportion of the Scheduled Tribe Households to all Rural Households was the highest in Orissa (27.16 percent) followed by Madhya Pradesh (24.58 percent) and Gujarat (19.96 percent). In the case of RLHs and ALHs, the highest proportion of the Scheduled Tribe households was noticed in Madhya Pradesh and Orissa with 35.38 percent and 36.90 percent respectively. Excepting Madhya Pradesh (35.38 percent), Orissa (35.16 percent), Rajasthan (29.29 percent), Gujarat (24.44 percent), Maharashtra (16.66 percent) and West Bengal (13.72 percent), all other major states have less proportion of Scheduled Tribe Rural Labour Households than the national average of 13.22 percent.

The details of Other Backward Classes Households are presented in Statement 3.2(3). At All-India level, 41.98 percent (24.89 percent with land & 17.09 percent without land) of All Rural Households belonged to Other Backward Classes. In respect of Rural Labour Households and Agricultural Labour Households this percentage stood at 37.46 (14.31 percent with land and 23.14 percent without land) and 36.40 (14.70 percent with land & 21.70 percent without land) respectively.

Among the major states, the percentage of Other Backward Classes RLHs to total RLHs was the highest in Tamil Nadu (62.69 percent) followed by Kerala (55.46 percent). As regards the proportion of ALHs of Other Backward Classes to total RLHs is concerned, it was highest in Tamil Nadu (57.35 percent) followed by Bihar (47.81 percent). West Bengal was at the bottom with 4.40 percent in case of RLHs and 3.79 percent in case of ALHs.

DISTRIBUTION OF HOUSEHOLDS BY SIZE OF LAND CULTIVATED: The Statement 3.3(1) depicts average size of land cultivated alongwith percentage distribution of estimated number of all rural labour households by size of the land cultivated. At all-India level, the average size of land cultivated (per cultivating household) was 0.12 Hectare during 2004-05 as against 0.18 hectare in the 1999-2000. Most of the states reported a decline in the size of land cultivated over the last survey except Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Gujarat, Haryana, Punjab and Tamil Nadu where it increased from 0.20, 0.04, 0.17, 0.06, 0.03, and 0.07 hectare to 0.21, 0.10, 0.20, 0.09, 0.06 and 0.09 hectare, respectively during 2004-05. The average size of land cultivated remained static at 0.07 hectare in case of West Bengal state. In all major states except Andhra Pradesh (0.21), Gujarat (0.20), Karnataka (0.27), Madhya Pradesh (0.24 hectare), Maharashtra (0.25 hectare) and Rajasthan (0.22 hectare) the average size of land cultivated was found to be less than the national average of 0.12 hectare. In case of Orissa, the average size of land cultivated was at par with the national average of 0.12 hectare.

The percentage distribution of all Rural Labour Households by size of land cultivated

revealed that at all-India level about 2 percent of households were landless and around 63 percent were marginal farmers possessing cultivated land between 0.01 and 0.40 hectare. Only 2.10 percent of the households possessed cultivated land above 2.01 hectares. Among the major states, the highest proportion of landless households was observed in Kerala (10.50 percent) followed by Assam (5.70 percent).

As regards the Scheduled Caste RLHs, during 2004-05, the average size of land

cultivated at national level, was 0.12 hectare as against 0.13 hectare in the previous survey. Among major states, six states viz Bihar (0.02 hectare to 0.09 hectare), Gujarat (0.12 hectare to 0.30 hectare), Haryana (0.02 hectare to 0.05 hectare), Maharashtra (0.23 hectare to 0.24 hectare), Punjab (0.02 hectare to 0.05 hectare) and Tamil Nadu (0.04 hectare to 0.09 hectare) showed a rising trend in the size of cultivated land.

20

The percentage distribution of households by size of land showed that, at all-India

level, about 3 percent of the Scheduled Caste households were without cultivated land and around 68 percent were in possession of cultivated land in the range of 0.01 hectare to 0.40 hectare. Only 1.80 percent households possessed more than 2.01 hectares of cultivated land. Among major states, the highest percentage of landless households was found in Gujarat (15 percent) followed by Kerala (13.8 percent).

The details of average size of cultivated land and percentage distribution of

households by size of land cultivated in respect of the Scheduled Tribe RLHs are shown in Statement 3.3(3). At all-India level, the average size of land cultivated was 0.14 hectare during 2004-05 as compared to 0.26 hectare in 1999-2000. The declining trend in average size of land, as compared to previous survey, was observed in all major states except Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and West Bengal. About 2 percent of the households were land less at national level and around 50 percent were in possession of cultivated land in the range of 0.01 hectare to 0.40 hectare.

Among the Other Backward Classes households, the average size of land cultivated

was 0.13 hectare at all-India level as against 0.19 hectare during the previous survey. The percentage of landless households was 2.60 percent. The marginal farmers with cultivated land in the range of 0.01 hectare and 0.40 hectare were about 61 percent. At state level, the highest number of landless households was in Assam (16.30 percent) followed by Kerala (9.40 percent) and West Bengal (5.40 percent).

Almost similar trend in land holding was observed in the case of ALHs. The details of land holding in respect of ALHs have been presented in Statements 3.4(1) to 3.4(4).

CHAPTER IV

OCCUPATIONAL PATTERN

Rural society is predominated by the landless labourers and marginal farmers who remain unemployed during a major part of the year due to seasonal nature of agricultural activities. In this chapter an attempt has been made to study the occupational pattern of the members of the households with a view to understand their occupational status on the one hand and the extent of unemployment on the other. The members of the households have been categorised into four occupational groups viz; - i) agricultural labour, ii) non-agricultural labour iii) other occupations, and iv) no occupation. Occupational pattern of the members of the households, with and without land, has also been discussed in this chapter.

THE NATURE OF OCCUPATION OF THE MEMBERS OF THE HOUSEHOLDS (i) Rural Labour Households (RLHs): The distribution of members of RLHs by their usual occupation has been presented in Statements 4.1(1) to 4.1(4). These statements depict that majority of the members of households were without occupation. At all-India level, out of the average household size of 4.56 persons, 2.59 persons were without occupation during 2004-05. Of the remaining 1.97 persons per household, 1.32 persons were engaged in agricultural labour, 0.41 persons in non-agricultural labour and 0.24 persons in other occupations. All the major states reported more than 50 percent members of households to be without occupation except Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu. The major states which reported the average number of members without occupation per household greater than the national average of 2.59 persons were Assam (3.13 persons), Bihar (3.28 persons), Haryana (3.01 persons), Kerala (2.71 persons), Madhya Pradesh (2.65 Persons), Punjab (3.39 Persons), Rajasthan (3.12 persons), Uttar Pradesh (3.58 persons) and West Bengal (299 persons). Agricultural labour was found to be the most prominent occupation of the households in majority of these states. Karnataka was on the top with 1.91 persons followed by Maharashtra (1.75 persons), Madhya Pradesh (1.70 persons), Andhra Pradesh (1.67 persons), Gujarat (1.63 persons), and Bihar (1.38 persons). However, Rajasthan with 0.42 persons per households was at the bottom. A majority of the members of the Scheduled Caste households were also without occupation. At all-India level, out of the average household size of 4.64 persons, 2.69 persons were without occupation, 1.37 persons were agricultural labourers, 0.40 persons were non-agricultural labourers and 0.18 persons were engaged in other occupations. Assam (3.24 persons), Bihar (3.03 persons), Gujarat (2.67 persons), Haryana (3.01 persons), Madhya Pradesh (2.81 persons), Orissa (2.71 persons), Punjab (3.50 persons), Rajasthan (3.33 persons), Uttar Pradesh (3.48 persons) and West Bengal (2.83 persons) were the major states which reported the average number of members without occupation per household greater than the national average of 2.56 persons. Among Scheduled Caste Households, agricultural labour was observed to be the most prominent occupation in almost all the states except Rajasthan where non-agricultural labour was reported to be the favoured occupation with 0.90 persons per households as against 0.59 persons engaged in agricultural labour.

As in the case of the Scheduled Caste households, most of the members of the Scheduled Tribe RLHs were also found without work. Of the average household size of 4.51 persons at all-India level, 2.28 persons were without occupation, 1.55 persons were agricultural labourers, 0.39 persons were non-agricultural labourers and 0.30 persons were

22

engaged in other occupations. Like Scheduled Caste households, agricultural labour was observed to be the most popular occupation among the Scheduled Tribe households also. The major states which reported the average number of members per household as agricultural labourers greater than the national average of 1.55 persons were Andhra Pradesh (1.71 persons), Gujarat (1.91 persons), Karnataka (2.13 persons), Madhya Pradesh (1.86 persons), Maharashtra (1.99) and Tamil Nadu (2.02 persons).

The trend in the case of Other Backward Classes of RLHs was also in line with those of the All Classes of Households, the Scheduled Caste and the Scheduled Tribe households. Agricultural labour was observed to be the most preferred occupation among the Other Backward Classes households also. Of average household size of 4.50 persons at all-India level, 2.54 persons were without occupation, 1.29 persons were engaged in agricultural labour, 0.42 persons in non-agricultural labour and 0.25 persons in other occupations. Assam (2.82 persons), Bihar (3.51 persons), Gujarat (2.59 persons), Haryana (2.90 persons), Kerala (2.95 persons), Madhya Pradesh (2.64 persons), Punjab (3.23 persons), Rajasthan (3.21 persons), Uttar Pradesh (3.65 persons) and West Bengal (2.89 persons) reported the average number of member without occupations higher than the national average of 2.54 persons per household. (ii) Agricultural Labour Households (ALHs) : The details of distribution of members of the ALHs by usual occupation have been presented in Statements 4.2(1) to 4.2(4). The ALHs being the subset of the RLHs, no separate analysis has been attempted. It may, however, be observed that a majority of the members of ALHs, like RLHs were without occupation. At all-India level, of average household size of 4.50 persons (all-classes), 2.47 persons were without occupation, 1.78 persons were agricultural labourers, 0.06 persons were non-agricultural labourers and 0.19 persons were engaged in other occupations. Almost all the major states reported similar pattern of occupation as the one observed in the case of All-India. The states which experienced the average number of members without occupation higher than the national average of 2.47 persons were Assam (3.13 persons), Bihar (3.24 persons), Haryana (3.20 persons), Kerala (2.56 persons), Madhya Pradesh (2.64 persons), Punjab (3.45 persons), Rajasthan (3.12 persons), Uttar Pradesh (3.47 persons) and West Bengal (2.98 persons). Among major states, Andhra Pradesh (1.99 persons), Gujarat (2.10 persons), Karnataka (2.19 persons), Madhya Pradesh (2.03 persons), Maharashtra (2.10 persons) and Tamil Nadu (1.81 persons) reported the number of agricultural labour per household greater than the national average of 1.78 persons. DISTRIBUTION OF PERSONS BY USUAL OCCUPATION AND POSSESSION OF LAND (i) Rural Labour Households: The percentage distribution of persons by usual occupation and possession of land in respect of RLHs have been presented in Statement 4.3 (1) to 4.3 (4). These statements revealed that the majority of the persons in rural labour households were without occupation. At all-India level, 56.87 percent members of the rural labour households (all-classes) were without occupation, 28.95 percent were agricultural labourers, 8.98 were non-agricultural labourers and 5.19 percent were engaged in other occupations. Majority of the persons possessing cultivated land were without occupation. At all-India level, 56.76 percent of the persons with cultivated land were without occupation, 27.74 percent were agricultural labourers, 7.61 percent were non-agricultural labourers and 7.89 percent were engaged in other occupation. Similarly, 56.95 percent of the persons without cultivated land were without occupation, 29.81 percent were agricultural labourers, 9.95 percent were non-agricultural labourers and 3.29 percent were engaged in other occupations.

23

As in the case of All-Classes of Households, a majority of the members of the Scheduled Caste RLHs were without occupation. At all-India level, 58.47 percent of the persons with cultivated land had no occupation, while 27.93 percent were agricultural labourers, 7.40 percent were non-agricultural labourers and 6.20 percent were engaged in other occupations. The corresponding figures for those who did not own cultivated land were 57.80 percent, 30.35 percent, 9.36 percent and 2.48 percent. Similarly, a majority of the persons of the Scheduled Tribe Households were without any occupation. At all-India level, 49.74 percent of the persons with cultivated land and 51.20 percent without cultivated land had no occupation. Of the remaining persons with cultivated land, 30.86 percent were agricultural labourers, 9.23 percent were non-agricultural labourers and 10.17 percent were engaged in other occupations. The corresponding figures for those without cultivated land were 38.08 percent, 7.89 percent and 2.83 percent.

The picture was almost the same in the case of Other Backward Classes RLHs also. The majority of the persons in this section were also without occupation. At all-India level, 57.14 percent of the persons with cultivated land were without occupation, 27.88 percent were engaged in agricultural labour, 7.22 percent in non-agricultural labour and 7.76 percent in other occupations. The corresponding figures for those without cultivated land were 55.83 percent, 29.40 percent, 11.00 percent and 3.77 percent. Agricultural labour was reported to be the most popular occupation among Other Backward Classes RLHs also. The states of Andhra Pradesh, Assam, Gujarat, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Orissa and Tamil Nadu reported the percentage of agricultural labour greater than the national average of 28.75 percent. (ii) Agricultural Labour Households: Statements 4.4(1), 4.4(2), 4.4(3) and 4.4(4) present percentage distribution of persons by usual occupation and possession of land in respect of All-Classes, Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Other Backward Classes agricultural labour households respectively. These statements revealed almost similar trend as those for RLHs, therefore, elaborate analysis of ALHs has not been attempted. GROWTH OF AGRICULTURAL AND NON-AGRICULTURAL LABOURERS (i) Rural Labour Households The estimated number of agricultural and non-agricultural labourers in RLHs has been presented in Statements 4.5 (1) to 4.5 (4). At all-India level, there were 72.67 million agricultural labourers among RLHs in 2004-05 of which 24.97 million were Scheduled Castes, 11.26 million Scheduled Tribes and 26.68 million were Other Backward Classes. Similarly, of 22.54 million non-agricultural labourers, 7.35 million were Scheduled Castes 2.83 million were Scheduled Tribes and 8.70 million were Other Backward Classes. About 60.83 percent of the agricultural labourers (all classes) were males, 37.49 percent were females and 1.68 percent were children. All the male, female and child agricultural labourers registered a decrease of 8.32 percent, 7.06 percent and 41.97 percent respectively over the previous survey. So far as the incidence of child labour is concerned, there has been a tremendous decline during 2004-05 over the previous survey. At all-India level, the decline was observed to the tune of 42 percent during 2004-05 as against an increase of about 7 percent reported during the previous survey. However, increasing trend was noticed in the states of Gujarat (33.33 percent), Punjab (9.52 percent). The trend in the case of the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes agricultural labourers, was almost similar. At all-India level, the percentage of child agricultural labour from the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes categories decreased by 57.08 percent and 35.48 percent respectively in 2004-05 over

24

1999-2000. However, the states of Gujarat, Orissa and Rajasthan reported an increase in the incidence of child labour from the Scheduled Castes category and Gujarat from the Scheduled Tribes category. As regards Other Backward Classes RLHs, out of 26.68 million agricultural labourers, 58.82 percent were males, 39.31 percent were female and 1.86 percent were children during 2004-05. Amongst non-agricultural labourers, about 81.39 percent (all-classes) were males, 17.20 percent were females and 1.41 percent were children in 2004-05.

The states which have observed an increasing trend in the incidence of child labour are Assam, Bihar, Haryana, Maharashtra, Orissa, Punjab, Rajasthan and West Bengal. Similarly, the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes non-agricultural labourers also registered an increase of 46.42 percent and 33.82 percent over the previous survey. Majority of the states reported huge increase in non-agricultural labourers in both Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe categories. In case of Other Backward Classes, out of 8.70 million non-agricultural laboures (all classes), 81.14 percent were males, 17.73 were females and 1.13 were children during 2004-05 survey. (ii) Agricultural Labour Households

The estimated number of agricultural and non-agricultural labourers in respect of all-classes, scheduled castes, scheduled tribes and other backward classes agricultural labour households has been presented in statements 4.6(1), 4.6(2), 4.6(3) and 4.6(4) respectively. Among agricultural labour households (all classes), there were 69.00 million agricultural labourers in 2004-05 at all-India level, of which 23.89 millions were scheduled castes, 10.82 millions were scheduled tribes and 25.01 millions were other backward classes households. About 62.15 percent of the agricultural labourers were males, 36.17 percent were females and 1.68 percent were children. As compared to previous survey, the male, female and children labourers showed a decreasing trend of 8.51 percent, 10.22 percent and 42.14 percent respectively.
