| Think of a farmer and the image that immediately
comes to you is of a man ploughing a field. But, in reality,
women too form a large workforce in agriculture and often end
up toiling more in the field than the men do. Yet, women have
always been seen as incidental to the entire business of agriculture.
They are lost behind the myopia of society that traditionally
hesitates to credit them for their work or intellect. 'Daughters
of the soil' raises a long-pending issue—women who are
farmers should be seen as farmers, not agricultural labourers.
