About this document
Exit from Agriculture: Impacts on Rural Poor by Jennifer Liu is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses a World Bank report that recommends small farmers who cannot compete exit agriculture and find work elsewhere. However, the author argues this overlooks the historical experience of rural poor in Asia, where low-wage labor is exploitative and there is little work available due to labor surplus. Finding stable work and exiting poverty is much more challenging than the report acknowledges.
