Abstract
Liberalization and Globalization has not only affected the big industries but also has made an impact to the way of living in the rural India. Impressed by the successes of entrepreneurs, the zeal of entrepreneurship is now blooming in the rural veins of the country. The rural youth especially women in India are taking steps towards being dairy entrepreneurs particularly in states like Gujarat, Haryana and Punjab. Women Entrepreneurship as a phenomenon has gained importance recently mainly during latter half of the eighties. This study was conducted in some villages near Hisar, Jind and Fatehabad by purpose. A total of 80 dairy start-ups were interviewed. It was observed that most of the women entrepreneurs belong to the age group of 30 to 40 years and after the successful implementation of their business plans, their incomes increased substantially and there is a need to introduce proactive role of government and other cooperatives to strengthen the status of women in business more.
