Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 7
Abstract
The present study was conducted in Haryana state in 2014.15. Fifty rural women each from Bhimnagar, Pali, Milkpur and Bawanikhera villages of Hisar and Bhiwani districts, respectively were selected purposively thus comprising of total sample of 200 respondents.
