This book was released on 1978 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The agricultural labour force declined by 713 thousand persons (60 percent) during the 1946 to 1974 period. This continual depletion of the agricultural labour force has led to a nation-wide shortage of qualified farm labour in recent years. Several reports have indicated that the lack of farm labour adversely affects the ability of Canadian agriculture to expand and develop. In view of possible world food shortages, the value of agriculture to the Canadian economy and the number of farm families affected, the problem of labour shortages restricting farm growth has become an important issue. The present study provides quantitative information about the market structure for farm labour in an attempt to aid policy-makers in the indentification of specific economic problems, the selection of short-run and long-run solutions, the evaluation of existing policies and programs and the forecasting of future conditions. The specific objectives of this study were: (1) to develop statical estimates of the demand for and supply of hired, unpaid family and operator labour in agriculture for the Prairie provinces, the Prairie region and Canada as a whole; (2) to analyze the interrelations among the three components of the agricultural labour force; (3) to obtain short-run and long-run elasticities of demand and supply for each agricultural labour ... These relationships generally held true in both the demand and supply equations. Hired labour and operator labour did not exhibit a consitent interdependent relationship ... The study concludes with a discussion on policy implications in the light of information obtained with respect to elasticities, component substitution and lagged responses.

This book was released on 1992 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The decades of economic expansion which followed World War II witnessed a dramatic decrease in the size of the farm labour force but the fundamental structures of agricultural production remained constant in Canada and the Northern United States. The economic turbulence of the last two decades has raised questions as to whether this structural continuity will persist. To date, the rate of economic concentration did increase among the fewer but larger surviving farm units, but concentration proceeded at a quite modest and gradual pace. Most farm production was still organized by independent family enterprises and even the largest farms were relatively small units compared to enterprises in other production sectors. Rates of entry and exit of farm enterprises in the 50+ sales percentiles, size classes which generate 93 per cent of farm sales, were also relatively modest. Upward size class mobility by farm enterprises was even more modest. The proportion of total family income provided by non-agricultural income flows on mid-sized farms is significant and appears to be increasing. These mid-sized farms continue their role as the core component of the Canadian agricultural system. The pursuit of non-farm income sources can be viewed as a "private stabilization program" created by farm families. Statistics Canada's Agriculture-Population Census Linkage is a unique policy analysis resource which enables us to examine relations between farm enterprise and farm family viability. The large sample size of the Ag-Pop data base permits a reliable disaggregation of variations in farm enterprise and farm family economic organization by scale of production, commodity sector, and region. Forty per cent of the Middle 1 farm families and one-quarter of the Middle 2 families rely on non-farm income flows to attain total family income equal to or greater than Statistics Canada's Low Income Cut-Off level (LICO). The importance of non-agricultural income for mid-sized farms suggests that rural development strategies can make sense as a farm program

Download or read book Recent Social Trends in Canada 1960 2000 written by Lance W. Roberts and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2005 with total page 688 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canadian society has changed dramatically since 1960. This work captures the scope and range of these changes through a systematic documentation of seventy-eight social trends. The introduction summarizes and locates the major waves of change. The authors then document each trend in relation to eighteen thematic groups that include age, community, women, labour, management, stratification, social relations, the state, mobilizing institutions, social forces, ideologies, households, lifestyle, leisure, education, integration, and attitudes and values. In contrast to many recent works and journalistic reports, Recent Social Trends in Canada concentrates on the trajectory of change rather than on current events. It provides a longitudinal context in which unfolding events can be interpreted in a broader historical and international context. Comparable volumes in the McGill-Queen's Comparative Charting of Social Change series describe similar tendencies in the United States, Quebec, France, Germany, Italy, Greece, Russia, and Bulgaria, making it possible to situate the Canadian experience in a global context.
