Johnson-Crosbie committee.»
The committee estimated the cost of living of a family of six to be
£P 26.°° After establishing the gross income and the cost of production for 100
dunums, the committee arrived at a net return of £P 20 for a tenant family and
£P 35.2 for an owner-cultivator family (see Table 3.3). However, the actual
average holding per family was 56 dunums of village-owned land, which meant
that the actual net income from cultivation was £P 11 for a tenant family and
£P 19.6 for an owner-cultivator family.
