    A change in the Rural economy, especially the rising cost of living, declining village industries and change in market structure have led to a situation where under economic pressure women have to involve themselves in occupations which require hard labour with a proportionately lower economic returns. Sides, they have to look after household chores of the family which confront them with problems of adjustment with their multifarious role to achieve greater precision and competence. In India, the traditional Village Community consisted of the cultivators, the artisans and those performing manual services. In each of these, the Women played a distinctive and accepted roles in the process of earning of livelihood for the family. in both production and marketing of products of agricultural and handicrafts. Among the agricultural classes in most parts of the country, particularly among marginal and landless agriculturist, earning livelihood is still a family endeavor with or without division of labour between men and women and children.

    Expectation and performance, the two concepts have diverse meaning in relation to the role of an incumbent, Expectation is anticipation and actualization in the imagination of coming events in relation to the objectives of aspiration {Le arch, 1985). on the other hand performance is the completion of an intended or promised action and the observable exercise of a skill (Meili, 1985). These two concepts are the two sides of a coin which though being together but do not join. There have been several studies which being out a wide gap between expectation and performance in any role. These two terms remain almost at two poles where these are concerned with employee and employer. Moreover in the situation where expectation of an employee and employers are related to farm operations where large number of women labour are employed. The gap between expectation and performance is more evident where women labour are concerned. Though women labour are engaged in cultivation of different crops but the situation is more delightful in paddy cultivation.

    (Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural Univesity, Hisar, 1986) Yadav, Beena; Verma, T.
    To Work is human nature and women are no exception to this. In fact in the World of work, women contribute much more than men. It is easy to see that the amount of work allotted to Women is considerably greater and their labor is much harder than men's work. The international decade for women (1975-85) indicates that there are 3201 million women in the -world and 326 million live in India. Today it is held that two third of all the works in the world is performed by Women and they constitute half of the Labor work force. Half of the food produced in the World is the labor of women working on farms. In Africa 75 per cent of the Work in agriculture is done by women and in Asia women constitute half the agricultural labor force( Dhar, 1978)
