Agricultural labour is an important factor in the Indian agricultural economy and it depends on agriculture in rural areas. 80% of the total workers in India are in rural areas and most of them are agricultural labourers. Agricultural labourers are socially and economically weak and depend on agriculture throughout their lives. Every person in rural areas is related to agricultural labourers. Therefore, agricultural labourers have an important place in the agricultural economy. In modern times, due to social changes, there is a shortage of agricultural labourers. Although this is a fact, the number of agricultural labourers is high in rural areas; but there is no morality in working as an agricultural labourer. Every labourer considers the work of agricultural labourers to be inferior. They do not easily agree to work in agriculture. Due to this mentality, there is a shortage of agricultural labourers. This is a very big challenge in agriculture at present.
