One of the experts, Dr. Seema Jaggi, said that doing good research is really important to make good rules. She talked about a special place called the “Central Institute for Women in Agriculture,” where people study how women can do better in farming.

Another expert, Dr. Ranjitha Puskur, said that in India, there are already millions of women who own businesses in farming. But most of these businesses are small and only have one person working. If we can help more women start bigger businesses, it can create lots of new jobs.

In Haryana and Punjab, there are many chances for women to do well in farming. They can start businesses with cows and milk, sell farming supplies, or even make tasty food. These businesses can make a lot of money and help the whole community.
