Online Published on 30 March, 2024. Abstract The present study was conducted with the objective to identify the aspirations of farm women. A total of 500 farm women of Punjab state were selected as sample for the study. The study highlights that majority of the farm women aspired for possession of assets, children’s education, children’s occupation, foreign immigration of children, children’s marriage and lavish life style. It was also observed that women do not aspire for socio-political status, agriculture and lavish marriage of their children. Overall (62.6%) of farm women had medium level of aspirations. The study reflects that farm women do not want to keep their wards in agriculture. They want them to be educated and settle in foreign countries. Their aspirations were comparatively high for their children’s education as compared to other aspirations. Top Keywords Aspirations, Farm women, Children’s education, Foreign immigration. Top |
