Problems Faced by Women in Agriculture and Its Allied Fields

Abstract

Though the constitution of India has provided equal rights and privileges to men and women, womens lives are shaped by social customs that blind their approach. Thus there rises the need to bring women into the mainstream of development with the implementation of several developmental policies, plans and programmes. For sustained economic development and social justice, socioeconomic status of women should be improved alongside men. Kerala economy is agro-based and a major proportion of women in the labour force work in agriculture and traditional industries like cashew, coir, and handloom. A significant proportion of the labour force in the agricultural sector comprises women. Women play a vital role in building this economy. This article is an attempt to define the role of women in agriculture and its allied field. Dr. Deeja.
