abstract
Agripreneurship among farm women in Bihar is gaining importance due to its role in enhancing rural livelihoods and promoting economic development. Agriculture remains the backbone of rural India, and women play a vital yet often understated role in it. In Bihar, women contribute significantly to farming and related activities but face several challenges that restrict their full potential in agripreneurship. This review provides a thorough review of the agricultural entrepreneurship of farm women in Bihar, focusing on the key factors, challenges, opportunities, and institutional support for women engaged in agriculture. The review explores factors such as education, socio-cultural norms, access to resources, and psychological barriers that influence their involvement in agripreneurship. Drawing from case studies and empirical evidence, the paper presents recommendations for policies and interventions to empower farm women in Bihar and enhance their entrepreneurial potential.
