Resource Allocation in Paddy Farming Under Different Tenure Categories in Two Villages in East Java Indonesia

The present study provides empirical evidence on resource allocation in paddy farming under different tenure categories based on data collected from 105 paddy farms by The Agro-Economic Survey of Indonesia (SAE), for the 1980/ 1981 wet season at two villages in East Java. To observe resource al...
