Overview

Observational study identified constraints in off-farm activities among farm women, suggesting interventions could enhance their economic empowerment.

Key Points

  • External constraints were the most significant, with a mean rank of 3.16, indicating barriers like unfavorable working conditions and social limitations.
  • A total of 120 farm women from four villages participated in the study, with socio-psychological and domestic constraints also affecting their off-farm roles.
  • Analysis involved Friedman two-way ANOVA by ranks, further validated through Monte Carlo significance testing at a 99% confidence level.
  • Focused interventions are critical, as they can enhance farm women's roles in off-farm activities and support sustainable rural development.
