Title: Empowering women in summer pulse production
Abstract: A woman is the nucleus of the family, particularly, in rural India and almost fifty percent of the population is being discriminated at all fronts. Entrepreneurship development is the only possible ways to empower women group. To this end, BAIF Munger organized training on summer moong production technique for women groups in BAIF’s office, district Munger with the help of KVK Munger scientist sunder TARINA project. The study was conducted in 2 villages of Munger districts of Bihar during 2016-2017 to design a framework for empowering farm women with improved pulse production technologies. A total of 46 farm women were randomly sample selected for the study of knowledge improvement of women. Knowledge improvement of women farmers after training was highest in the subject matters like seed treatment which increased from 30 % to 91% , irrigation from 23 to 78%,fertilizer application from 30 to 82%,land preparation from 30 to 80% , picking from 40 to 89% ,insect and pest control from 29 to 77% ,manure application from 23 to  70%,threshing  from 42 to 88 %  respectively. Majority of women farmers expressed limited availability of quality seeds and lack of information on suitable improved varieties as the major problems. After harvesting of crops, production data was collected. The women farmers got 1.4 to 1.6 qt of pulse grain in 0.25 acre area.
