* significant at 10 percent level; ** at 5 percent level; *** at 1 percent level
Notes: In models (1) and (2), the dependent variables are the number of household members with (1)
off-farm work or (2) farm work. In models (3) and (4), the dependent variables are 1 = individual has (3)
off-farm work or (4) farm work and 0 = not. Columns (3) and (4) report the marginal effects of a probit
model and the standard errors are clustered at the household level.
