Lesson 48 :National Policy for Women in Agriculture
Preface
The National Policy on Farmers 2007 was published by the Ministry of Agriculture, GOI. On going through this document, NCW found that the general nature of the policy document had left out or marginalized many of crucial concerns regarding women farmers and agricultural workers. This is why it seemed to be a necessary exercise to supplement the National Policy for farmers with a comprehensive document on the problems and needs of women in agriculture in the present time.
