IMPROVEMENT in the living conditions
of farm labourers is constantly
stressed in rural development projects,
But exposition of the problems arising
from the kind of work they do is rare.
Amarjit Chandan ('Victims of Green
Revolution', EPW, June 23, 1979)
described the plight of agricultural
workers engaged in operating power
threshers in Punjab. Use and marketing
of plant protection appliances is
another area in which farm labourers
are exposed to high risk.
