Agriculture is the backbone of the Indian economy. The contribution of women is considerable. Statistical data are available regarding their participation in agricultural and allied activities, but their impact on the home environment has been ignored. The present study was undertaken to discover what this impact was and to determine the factors associated with the involvement of women in agricultural and allied activities. A multistage, stratified random sampling technique was used to select 50 farm women practicing agricultural farming in Kakodonga development block of Golaghat district, Assam. Data were collected using structured interview schedule. Mean score were calculated to see the extent of the impact and factors associated with the participation of women. The results revealed that the majority of respondents were middle aged (70%), belonged to the age group 35-45 years. Most of these women had education up to high school. The majority of farm women (87%), belonged to nuclear family system and most of them had family size 0-6 members. In terms of family life the positive impact of women’s participation in agriculture and activities was low while in education of children, household standard, and economic and social status it was medium. The prime factor was a feeling of responsibility.
