Abstract

Social survey (quantitative research) and participatory rural appraisal (PRA) (qualitative research) were carried out in a study conducted in Merek (Kermanshah Province) and Honam (Lorestan Province) in Iran. The study aims to find new ways of improving the incomes of rural households, based on the role of women in agricultural production and the division of labor in socioeconomic activities between men and women.
