This is an empirical study based on a field survey of agricultural labourers of 12 villages of Barpeta District in Assam. It depicts the socio economic condition of agricultural labourers in respect of their income consumption and indebtedness. The study finds that although the average levels of living of labourers has improved a little in recent years due to the efforts of different agencies and associations their overall standard of living is below that of a decent standard. The study has made a number of pertinent prescriptions for improving the lot of the agricultural labourers in Assam in particular and in India in general. 204 pp.
