abstract: 'We combine nationally representative household and labor force survey
data from 1992 to 2016 to provide a detailed description of rural labor
market evolution and how it relates to the structural transformation of
rural Vietnam, especially within the agricultural sector. Our study adds
to the emerging literature on structural transformation in low-income
countries using micro-level data and helps to answer several
policy-related questions. We find limited employment creation potential
of agriculture, especially for youth. Rural-urban real wage convergence
has gone hand-in-hand with increased diversification of the rural
economy into the non-farm sector nationwide and rapid advances in
educational attainment in all sectors'' and regions'' workforce. Minimum
wage laws seem to have played no significant role in increasing
agricultural wages. This enhanced integration also manifests in steady
attenuation of the longstanding inverse farm size-yield relationship.
Farming has remained securely household-based and the family farmland
distribution has remained largely unchanged. Small farm sizes have not
obstructed mechanization nor the uptake of labor-saving pesticides,
consistent with factor substitution induced by rising real wage rates.
As rural households rely more heavily on the labor market, human capital
accumulation (rather than land endowments) have become the key correlate
of improvements in rural household well-being.'
