Abstract
This study examines the 'Economic and Technological Constraints' facing by farm women in four villages viz: Jorium, Saroorpur, Sidhauna and Tendha of Milkipur block of Faizabad district of Uttar Pradesh. The sample size taken for the study is of 100 farm women drawn by proportionate random sampling. 'Constraints' here refers to economical and technological problems that limited the growth and development of farm women. Few studies have been done on such problems of farm women. This study further examines the remedial measures suggested by them to overcome these constraints. Constraints were ranked after calculating average score where as remedial measures were expressed in percentage.
The primary objective of this study is to attract attention towards constraints faced by this group of women so that some steps should be taken by government or non-government or local agencies or people to overcome these constraints.
