Three family members cultivate a small plot that one person could manage alone. According to the notes, what is this phenomenon and why does it matter for rural policy?
A
Disguised unemployment: the extra workers' marginal productivity is zero, yet they appear employed on paper, hiding the true severity of rural joblessness and strengthening the case for non-agricultural rural livelihoods.
B
Open unemployment: all three workers are counted as jobless in official statistics.
C
Aspirational migration: the workers are preparing to move to cities for career growth.
D
Distress entrepreneurship: the family is running a scalable agri-startup.
