Abstract
The aim of this study is: Identification of woman's contribution in
production, and marketing of tomatoes crop in terms of actual days of
woman's work in ratio to total family and paid work and for each practice and
identification of this ratio between the two catogories of: graduates wives and
beneficiaries wives, identification of the relationship of women's cntribution of
family work and some independent variables, identification of the main
problems facing them in production, marketing, preservation of tomatoes, and
how to solve these problems according to their point of views, identification of
the woman's need for specialized extension activities according to ratio of
their contribution of farm practices and their perception for the problems
facing them. The study was conducted in six villages of Nubaria: AI- Ola , and AI
lohor for graduates villages and first village, fifth village, and seventh village
of the beneficiaries, as it has been found the largest cultivated aria of
tomatoes. A random sample of 150 respondents was drawn, they represent
10% of tomatoes farmers wives in the six villages, 50 graduates wives and
100 benificiaries wives was interviwed using questionnaire, Ratio percent, Spearman Rank Difference Correlation, and Pearson Correlation, and (l) test were used for analysis of data. The most important results of this study can be summarized as follows: 1- The ratio of women's contribution in family work was 8, 2% over the two categories; 10,3% for graduates wives, and 7,9% for benificieries wives, but the ratio of women's contribution in paid work was 4,66 % over the
two categories; 4,77% in the graduates farms, but 4,6 % in the
benefiCiaries farms. 2- The results showed significant differences between the two categories at 0.01 level of significant and 148 degrees of freedom.
Distributing women's days of work over the farm practices of tomatoes to
the total family work it has been found that graduates wives contribution
was at it's maximum ratio in weeding of nursery bed was 65,6% and 53,1
% for insect- controLThis for 40% of the graduates wives who cultivated
their nursery bed but most of them (60%) have bought plants out of their
., farm. In the permanent field the greatest ratio in growing was 22,4% and was 15,6 % for harvesting and 9,0% for preperation peranent field. - Beneficiaries wives contribution in family work was 44,9% in fertilizing of nursery bed, 20,7% in lifting plants and 18,6% for land preparation, growing and weeding of 5,6% for insect- control. But in the permanent field the greatest ratio of their contribution was 19,4% in harvesting, 18,9% in growing and planting, and was 12,9% in fertilizing and 6,7% in insect-control. 3- Results also indicated that the ratio of women's contribution in family work was significantly related with land holding size, size of land cultivated with tomatoes , and house holding machines, but not significantly related with
the age of husband, number of years after marriage, and animal holding
size. 4- The main problems facing womem were: preservation of the surplus and
manufacturing tomatoes, shortage of funds to set up a small factory.
