The present study was been carried out to examine the economic viability of agriculture based enterprises for women in agriculture and the constraints and prospects for these trades in Punjab state. Amongst the different enterprises adopted by the women, the four activities/enterprises, viz. dairy, bee keeping, papar/badi and pickles were selected. The average annual household income of the women entrepreneurs was found to vary between Rs. 1.66 lakh for dairy enterprise to Rs. 2.16 lakh for the bee-keeping enterprise. The share of enterprise income in household income was also found to be the lowest for dairy enterprise (18.89%), while it was to the tune of 72.84 per cent for the papar/badi enterprise. Amongst the different enterprises selected for study, papar/badi enterprise was the most successful/economically viable enterprise for the women entrepreneurs followed by bee-keeping, pickles and the dairy enterprise. Marketing, lack of capital, problems faced being the women and technical deficiency were the major problems faced by the sample women entrepreneurs. To make these enterprises viable, the study emphasised the need for the subsidy on the purchase of inputs, reduction in formalities for getting credit from the institutional sources and the formal banking institutions must finance their input cost as they were heavily dependent upon the non-institutional sources of credit. To increase the profit from bee-keeping and pickles enterprises, the entrepreneurs were advised to try for selling their products directly to the consumers through the sale by opening retail outlets and in the exhibitions/melas.
