Rural urban migration of agricultural labourers has created a huge cry for labour and there is a problem of labour scarcity making the farming activities still worse. But the fact remains that it is possible to get food grains owing to the fact that still there are agricultural labourers (non migrants) who are the feeders. It becomes essential to know why these agricultural labourers who remain in the villages and what are the reasons for their non migration to urban areas. The results reveal these non migrants have commitment and personal factors which have made them to remain in the villages.
