The evidence from the study villages indicates a sharp con-tradiction between the government’s policy of rice intensifi-cation and the trajectories being pursued by rice-growing households, even in villages with access to irrigation. The positive inducement of higher incomes from non-farm em-ployment, especially through international migration, is transforming rural livelihoods.
