摘要:Multi-stage random sampling technique was utilised to get a sample of 439 households of 24 villages of 6 different community development blocks of the three different districts of the valley namely Shopian, Budgam and Kupwara. The study was conducted in 2013-14 in the three districts of Kashmir valley, by giving equal representation to all the three parts of Kashmir valley. The data was collected with the help of an open ended well- structured questionnaire. From the data collected it has been found that women in all the three districts of the valley participate in almost all the activities related to apple cultivation. Women work from dawn to dusk in the apple orchids and contribute to the family income. But from the study it can be concluded that, though women work hard and hard and work much hours in the farm activities, but their contribution in the apple production is very less. The reason for this as concluded in this study that women are disguisedly employed in the farm activities
