- W62662034 abstract "This paper analyzes off-farm activities and income among 1343 households inrural Ethiopia using an original panel data set. The key findings are as follows.(a) ‘Non-poor’ households generate a significant amount of income from farmingactivities. (b) Non-poor participate more in high-earning off-farm activitieswhile, on average, ‘poor’ participate in low-earning off-farm activity. (c) Poorhousehold participate due to push factor while non-poor participate as achoice. (d) Household with more resources are getting better off-farm earnings.(e) Share of off-farm income is higher for poor households, that is, off-farmincome constitutes nearly 35% and 18% of household income for poorand non-poor households respectively (in 2008). In general, the finding indicatesthat the poorer segment of the society relies relatively more on off-farmincome and there is an entry barrier for poor households to participate onhigh-earning activities. Off-farm activities have a potential to reduce povertyand income inequality as it is relatively beneficial to poorer households. However,this requires substantial improvement in terms of increasing off-farmearnings that the poor households engaged in. Otherwise, the contribution ofoff-farm to the national economy will only be limited to absorbing the poor onlower earning activities. However, it is to be noted that off-farm activity areacting as a safety net for rural society in Ethiopia, no matter what the earninglevel is, by preventing them from a worst livelihood situations.-- Relevance to Development Studies --The livelihood of most people in developing countries is highly dependent onagriculture, but the carrying capacity of the sector is decreasing over time dueto rate of increase in population growth and the corresponding reduction infarm size. As a result, share of off-farm participation of rural labor force is increasing.It is, therefore, crucial to closely examine the cause and effect of diversificationto better understand the situation and explore policy options torationally address it. This study points out some of the motives behind thedecision for diversification and consequences on household income using paneldataset." @default.
