<p> This thesis examines the allocation and relative efficiency of the agricultural labour input in North Grimsby Township. The relative efficiency of the labour input is determined by the construction of an Index of Labour Efficiency, in which the actual labour input is compared with the labour input requirement for the farm as determined from studies undertaken by the Ontario Department of Agriculture. Certain normative hypotheses are tested, relating elements of the farm economic structure and the physical environment to the Labour Efficiency Index.</p> / Thesis / Master of Arts (MA)
