SUMMARY:Studying Women’s Work: Women Farmers in India
DESCRIPTION:\n\nWomen play a critical role in agricultural production in India. In addition to performing grueling farm operations, like sowing, transplanting, weeding, and picking, they are also invariably involved in activities such as maintenance of kitchen garden, livestock management, and collection of agricultural products for family consumption.\nThe crucial contribution of women to agricultural production is gradually being recognized in scholarship. The significant presence of women in the ongoing farmers’ movement in India is yet another evidence of their strong linkages with the farm economy.\nIn relation to this, FAS organised an event, ‘Studying Women’s Work: Women Farmers in India,’ on March 29, 2021. This talk was an attempt to expand our understanding of women’s work in agriculture, their role in farming, and the issues and demands specific to them.\nThe speakers for this event were Madhura Swaminathan, Professor of Economics at ISI (Bangalore), and Jagmati Sangwan, AIDWA Vice-President. Madhura spoke on the role of women in farming in India while Jagmati shed light on women’s voices in the ongoing farmers movement.\nThis event was live-streamed on our Facebook page and our YouTube channel.
