    Abstract/Description
    Family labor is a valuable and "scarce" resource. It is through the application of labor that the farming family is able to use natural resources such as soil, water, vegetation and climate and purchased in• puts such as fertilizer, chemicals, and tools. In developing an improved technology to increase productivity or enhance sustainability, the labor requirements must be evaluated. For full understanding of the labor requirement for an indigenous or improved technology, seasonality and specialization of labor must be considered as well as the total labor requirement.
