Women may have been the first agriculturists as the steps from gathering roots and seeds to planting and cultivating food fodder fiber and fuel wood crops in small pockets are closely associated with them. In South East Asia most of the work in the fields is done by women and the system is deemed to be female. The figures from the International Labour Organization reveal that women are responsible for 50% of food production in the developing world. There is hardly any activities in agricultural production expect ploughing in which women are not actively involved. Seasonal migration by men counterparts imposes an extra burden on women as they have to cope with the dual responsibilities of own farm/wage labour and managing their children. Under these conditions women's participation in agriculture increases rather than decreases because of the migration and employment of men outside the village.
