Janet Perry and Mary C. Ahearn

Rural America/ Rural Development Perspectives, 1994, vol. 09, issue 3

Abstract: Some farm women operate farms alone, more operate farms jointly with their husbands, and still others leave farm management decisions to their husbands. All three groups of farm women make substantial contributions to farm household income, most often by working both on and off the farm.
