Summary The purpose of the study was to identify the role of women in homestead and family life. Bangladesh is a country of illiterate people. Only nineteen percent of women are educated in rural Bangladesh.
Women are the half of society.
They take part in completion of most homestead activities. They play an important role in domestic duties such as washing utensils, cleaning house compounds, livestock and poultry management and feeding, as well as post-harvest activities, guest entertainment, decision making and technology adoption. Conscientiousness of women and their education level are responsible for technology adoption. Adoption of technology was faster among higher educated women in the rural village. Development of socio-economic condition of Bangladesh fully depends upon the development of the village.
