Discussion, Conclusion and Policy Suggestion. 330 $aThis book presents an extensive study of women?s involvement in agricultural activities at the family level in rural Bangladesh, with a particular emphasis on their participation in decision-making. The authors examine the extent to which women are involved in decision-making regarding agricultural practices at family level. In addition to examining women?s contributions to various agricultural tasks, the research expands its scope to include discussions on gender inequality and empowerment, integrating these concepts into the decision-making framework. The authors argue that true participation should not only address the involvement of women in agriculture but also consider their influence on decision-making processes. They stress the importance of factors such as autonomy, control over resources, and self-confidence, which play a crucial role in shaping women?s decision-making ability within the family. Moreover, the research identifies several key barriers to participation, including entrenched patriarchal norms, societal cultural expectations, and institutional challenges, which hinder women?s active involvement in decision-making. The authors advocate for policy reforms and institutional changes to address these challenges, urging government bodies to align policies with their recommendations. The book provides valuable insights for policymakers, government officials, and NGOs working to promote gender-based approach and improve women?s empowerment in rural communities. 606 $aSociology 606 $aNutrition 606 $aFood 606 $aWomen$xHistory 606 $aSex 606 $aSociology of Food and Nutrition 606 $aWomen's History / History of Gender 606 $aGender Studies 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aNutrition. 615 0$aFood. 615 0$aWomen$xHistory. 615 0$aSex. 615 14$aSociology of Food and Nutrition. 615 24$aWomen's History / History of Gender. 615 24$aGender Studies. 676 $a306.3 676 $a641 700 $aNawaz$b Faraha$01061608 701 $aRupa$b Sangida Afrog$01831894 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911011816603321 996 $aGender, Participation and Agriculture$94404883 997 $aUNINA
