Komal Rani · Accepted Answer

Dear student low agricultural productivity and hidden unemployment
go hand in hand In agricultural countries like India, a lot of
people depend on agriculture as their means of livelihood This has
led to overcrowding in agriculture This has resulted in subdivision
and fragmentation of holdings, decline in the area of land per
capita, disguised unemployment and almost zero marginal
productivity of labour Low productivity results in lower level of
income Which in turn results in no investment by farmers for their
family members in any other means of earning livelihood Which let's
do employment all family members at the same land for the purpose
of agriculture which results in disguised unemploymentbecause with
the addition of labour there is no additional productivity Regards
