Abstract

[eng] Farmers and other self employed individuals : income comparison . In comparison with other households, farming households have a reasonably good level of income. In the 1970s, total farming income decreased but the average farm's size increased. At the same time, farming households earned a growing portion of their income outside farming and received higher levels of welfare benefits. As a result, the relative position of farming households in the income distribution has remained stable. In contrast, for most farmers income derived strictly form farming is lower than the average earnings of other self-employed individuals. The gap between the two groups is even larger when the duration of work and the amount of invested capital are taken into account. [fre] Comparés aux autres catégories de ménages, les ménages d'exploitants agricoles n'apparaissent pas, en moyenne, mal lotis : c'est en partie parce que la dégradation des revenus agricoles des années 1970 s'est accompagnée de la disparition des petites exploitations ; c'est aussi le fait du développement d'autres activités et de la croissance rapide des transferts sociaux. Au contraire, les revenus tirés de l'activité agricole apparaissent souvent plus faibles que ceux des autres professions indépendantes ; ceci est plus net encore lorsque l'on prend en compte la durée élevée de la semaine de travail et l'importance des capitaux que les exploitants agricoles mettent en oeuvre.
