Abstract

Tribal women are significant contributors to eco-friendly agriculture and rural sustainable lifestyles, and are very closely related to the protection of natural ecosystems. As they assume work that encompasses the entire agricultural cycle, from land preparation to post-harvest operations, they prove a deep-rooted dedication to the farm sector. They contribute to the preservation of biodiversity through the use of resources seed conservation and the application of conventional methods. Because their involvement covers water conservation forest management and the sustainable use of non-timber forest resources it highlights their broader impact on ecological balance and community well-being. Investigating how local tribal women promote ecological preservation and sustainable agricultural methods is the goal of this project. Simple random sampling was used to select 336 households 25 from each of the 12 blocks in the Kandhamal district of Odisha which is known for its diverse and tribally concentrated agricultural landscapes.
