family workers engaged on the farm.
Thus, the typical farm for all types of non-capitalist
production unit employs one male and one female family worker
on a full-time basis, normally the head of the household and
his wife. Sharecropping is most typical in this respect.
Unlike the situation in the West Bank highland, the typical
family farm in the north Jordan Valley employs no male or
female family workers on a part-time basis. The reasons for
this are quite clear, unlike the situation where village
GQwellers work for part of the year in the Israeli or West
Bank non-agricultural economy and return to work on the
family farm during the harvest period, this does not occur in
the north Jordan Valley as there is very limited
proletarianisation of members of the family on the whole.
Very few people from this region work inside the Israeli
economy. The absence of part-time family workers is
particularly marked in the sharecropping and smaliholding
sectors, where 81% of sharecropping farms employ no part-time
male family workers and 76% employ no part-time female family
workers. The situation in smallholding is almost identical,
where 81% of farms employ no part-time male family workers
and 72% employ no part-time female family workers (see Table
48). Although not as strongly marked, the other forms of
landholding show similar tendencies.
As I mentioned previously, full-time day labourers constitute
only a tiny portion of the total labour force. There are only
16 full-time day labourers — 8 men and 8 women — in the
