Women constitute 70 per cent of the world’s poor population means they are 1.3 billion. They produce 50 percent of the food worldwide but receive only 10 percent of the income. Contribution by the women in the development of rural sector has been one of the most neglected and discriminatory areas. The active involvement of women in the development of rural as well as other sectors as been overlooked, by passed, underestimated and even neglected. The absence of proper recognition of women’s positive contribution and participation is due to the contention that their activities are economically unproductive, supplementary, optionally intermittent and dispensable.
