ResumoThe study has analysed the socio-economic upliftment of women through dairy enterprise. The study has been conducted in Begusarai district of Bihar by collecting data from 210 woman dairy co-operative society’s members. From the study, it can be concluded that farm women have played an important role in the social and economic development of societies but they are often denied equal opportunities due to socially embedded gender inequalities. Though women contribute significantly to dairy production in Bihar, their participation in dairy farming is considered as an important tool for alleviating poverty and enhancing quality of life of rural community.
