Significant employment gains have resulted from the Green Revolution technologies in Bangladesh. While the kharif (wet) season employment has remained more or less stagnant, employment in the rabi (dry) season increased fourfold between the early 1960s and the late 1980s. With overall crop sector employment increasing by 30%, interseasonal differences in employment have declined steadily.

Changes in the occupational structure may merely reflect a relocation of surplus labor from the farm to the nonfarm sector (where it is also largely surplus) rather than heralding a ...
