In our study villages in Chandpur, we found that villagers were quite mobile, with the majority of households being employed in the nonagricultural sector, and also involved actively in markets and marketing systems. In the Barind tract, on the other hand, the villagers were "land-locked, " and their interaction with the outside world was single-faceted, consisting in their marketing of surplus rice. Recent changes in national occupational structure in Bangladesh are mainly due to structural changes in rural areas, where there has been an increase in nonfarm jobs such as sales, services, transportation and other productive work. This was certainly true in the Chandpur study villages. People employed in the nonagricultural sector play a vital role in linking rural areas with urban centers. The money they remit is spent in farming and daily village life, thus augmenting the stability of rural life. In the rural occupational structure, the choice of farm and nonfarm occupation and changes therein have a close relation with the places and patterns of employment, education level and age of employees. However, in the Bogra study village, the only linkage with urban centers are through the medium of marketing systems and education of the spouses in the local towns. The distinct difference between the two areas studied may partly be explained by the difference in agricultural systems. The village in the Barind tract is a typical rice-surplus area, where rice production is managed by large and medium farms, which comprise 60 percent of all households. Rice farming is the core of all the activities, including economic activities in this village. On the other hand, farm households in Chandpur villages are all equally small, with very few landless farm households and almost no large farms among them. Their rice production is mainly for home consumption, and their household economy must rely heavily on nonagricultural sources of in come.
