4. Model Specification, Data and Results
Considering Keynesian theoretical explanation about the change in the employment
which depends on expected output or change in output, the agricultural employment
will be influenced by the volume of agricultural output. That volume of output will be
determined through the equilibrium mechanism of supply of and demand for output in
the market. It means that the employment in agricultural sector will be directly
influenced by the market equilibrium mechanism of output. This framework is
presented in the following:
Let Y
A
is agricultural output and E
A
is agricultural employment.
Y
A
= Y
OA
+ Y
UA
, and E
A
= E
OA
+ E
UA
……………………..(1)
where OA = organized agricultural sector, UA = unorganized agricultural sector.
As we know that the organized sector’s share of employment in agriculture is
insignificant with less than 1 per cent share in output; hence it is not really needed very
much.
