Title

ROLE OF WOMEN IN SERICULTURE, OBSERVATION OF TWO TRIBAL BLOCK OF RAIGARH DISTRICT - CHHATTISGARH - INDIA

Abstract

Sericulture is essentially a village based industry that provides employment to both skilled and unskilled labour, women and aged persons at homes at minimum risk. India continues to the second largest producer of silk in the world and has 16.58% share in global raw silk production. Among the four varieties of silk produced as in 2016-17 the production increased up to 30265 MT. The employment generation in the country is raised to 8.51 million persons in 2016-17 compared to 7.65 million persons in 2012-13. In Chhattisgarh Tasar and mulberry are reared on commercial scale. Tasar is realy named as Kosa. Sericulture practiced by the tribal of traditional Districts of Baster, Raigarh, Bilaspur and Surguja. The present article will mainly explore the role of women in sericulture and includes the concept of work, division of labour, segregation of occupations, and dimension of labour and household activities. This article will further discuss the preparation of women toward silkworm, feeding and so on. Women are mostly favoured because of their industrious nature. They are employed in a mulberry garden or silkworm rearing or in a grainage. Coming to the post cocoon technology, the involvement of the women is greater, commencing from silk reeling, weaving and garment manufacturing industry. However, their work has not always been properly recognized or suitably rewarded. Thus the analysis clearly establishes the importance of sericulture over other crops in the generation of fresh employment opportunities in rural areas.

Key Words
