Solution

i) Farm labourers are the people who work for the landlords. They work on the field allotted on daily wages it depends from region to region.
ii) Sometimes they are paid in cash or get daily meals too. They do not have the right over the crops grown on the land.
iii) Farming requires a great deal of hard work which is done by these laborers. Hence without them such a huge amount of production of crops is impossible.
iv) If laborers are available in scarce quantity, the crop producers either have to invest a huge capital to set up machines for the production or get laborers transported from different regions.
v) In Rampur, the story is diffrent here, the laborers have huge competition for work. So people agree to work even for low wages.
