Abstract

Through the use of a longitudinal data set, we determine those factors that are important to off-farm labor market entry and compare them with factors affecting off-farm labor market exiting. The model of labor market entry and exit takes into account the effects of changes in key economic variables over a four-year period. The data are for married farm women in Wisconsin who must make labor allocation decisions among home production, farm production, and off-farm employment. These decisions have important implications for the well-being of the families involved (who have been increasing in number) and for their communities.
