Determinants of Unorganized Agricultural Sector
By putting Keynesian view on determining employment in the sector in an equation
format,

Where,
RI = Rainfall index which is constructed by taking the simple average of normal
rainfall at the all-India level for the last five years.
ELCTRCTY = Electricity used in agricultural sector.
NAY = Non-Agricultural Output, that is, addition of industrial and services output.
HYVPRP = Proportion of area under High Yielding Varieties, is the ratio of High
Yielding Varieties to Gross Sown Area.
NAY = Non-Agricultural Output which is addition of industry and services output.
Y
t-1
= last year’s Output of the agriculture.
LP = Labour Productivity which is defined as output per each labour unit.
GCF
PUB
= Gross Capital Formation in Public Agricultural Sector.
GCF
PVT
= Gross Capital Formation in Private Agricultural Sector.
K/L = Capital–Labour ratio.
ATOT = Agricultural Terms of Trade, that is, value of export to value of import.
Given this argument, one would expect each variable to have a significant effect on
employment in the sector.
