在帕兰普尔进行的70年调查的数据提供了对村庄经济不断变化的性质的见解。作为一个以农业为主的经济体，帕兰普尔已经看到非农就业成为村庄经济增长和收入分配的主要驱动力，但伴随着日益严重的不平等。有证据表明，在帕兰普尔，弱势群体的流动性更大，而代际流动性却在下降。初步分析表明，非农业活动的性质已变得越来越随意和非正式，因此处于分布底层的家庭更容易获得，但仍然受到网络和家庭关系的影响，特别是对于报酬更高和稳定的非农业工作。
Data from seven decades of survey in Palanpur provide insights into the changing nature of the village economy. Starting as a predominantly agrarian economy, Palanpur has seen non-farm employment emerge as a major driver of growth and distribution of income in the village economy, but accompanied by increasing inequality. There is evidence of greater mobility among the disadvantaged in Palanpur alongside falling inter-generational mobility. Preliminary analysis suggests that the nature of non-farm activities has become increasingly casual and informal, thereby more accessible to households at the bottom of the distribution, but still significantly influenced by access to networks and family ties, particularly for the more remunerative and stable non-farm jobs.
