regional labour force, the majority of whom work,
interestingly enough, for sharecroppers (see Table 49). Thus,
98% of farms employ no full-time day labourers. It is clear
from this that proletarianisation is completely undeveloped
in the agricultural sector of this regional! enclave.
The employment of part-time (seasonal) day labourers on farms
in the Jordan Valley is widely varied and the utilization of
day labour depends on a number of factors, such as the nature
of the crop grown, dunumage of production and the
availability of family labour. However, as with part-time
family workers, the majority of all forms of productive unit
do not employ seasonal day labourers (see Table 50). Those
Part-time day labourers who are employed are mainly women.
However, the utilization of part-time male day labourers is
also quite common, with 13% of the sharecropping sector, 18%
of the farming-shepherd sector, 20% of the cash tenancy
sector and 28% of the smallholding sector employing male
seasonal workers. The figures for women are quite a bit
higher, with 33% of sharecroppers, 24% of farming-shepherds,
34% of cash tenants and 33% of smallholders employing female
seasonal workers for some period during the agricultural
season. Clearly, female seasonal workers are the more
important source of seasonal labour supply. This is
particulary true of sharecropping where they greatly
outnumber male seasonal workers.
The majority of these seasonal workers (85%) work only during
the harvest season (see Table 51). A minority of seasonal
workers (8%) Work during both the harvest and the sowing
