| Summary / Abstract (Note) | We examine life-cycle off-farm work patterns of farmers in Israel by estimating a multinomial probit model of farmers' off-farm labor supply, using a two-period panel data set. We treat farm capital stock as an endogenous variable that is dependent on the work status and is determined jointly with the work choice. |
