| الملخص: | Approaches of different schools of thought to tenancy have been different for its impact on
agriculture. As agriculture and allied activities have increasingly become loss making venture for
more than last two decades. Farmers, especially the food crop producers, have either shifted to
more profitable commercial crops or lease out land to farm workers and peasants for rent. Wage
labour and peasants are rather forced to lease-in land to make up for the loss in employment
days in the crop production sector. It is argued that forced tenancy of wage labour and peasants
is a variant of hunger leasing and such tenants are subjected to multiple forms of exploitation by
money lenders, land owners, and traders of agricultural commodities. The price fall of agricultural
commodities driven agrarian distress and its culmination into massive spate of suicides is closely
linked to the lease land cultivation by peasants, wage labour and small farmers. |
