Synopsis A common Indian word is "Raising girl is like watering someone else's lawn" (India and birth control society). This statement shows that the attitude towards women is not positive. This statement was true in former period when girls were seen as a burden to society but in present time women have proved their worth by standing along with men and working to earn money, and even making important scientific and mathematical discoveries. Not in urban areas but in rural areas, women are seen as property. They are the productive partners in agriculture and other agro-economic activities like forestry, fisheries, land preparation, seed selection, weeding, harvesting. They take care of animals, grazing, and fodder collection, cleaning of animals sheds to processing milk and livestock products. In livestock management, indoor jobs like milking, feeding, cleaning, etc. are done by women in 90 per cent of families while management of male animals and fodder production are effected by men. This book is a collection of various articles/papers on the subject highlighting some of the relevant issues.
