Abstract

The emergence of Agritech enterprises owned by women is a big move in the field of agricultural entrepreneurship, which embraces inclusiveness, sustainability, and household well-being. Digital innovation is embraced by these businesses to improve the productivity, access to markets and financial independence through traditional farming. This paper will research the business model, limitations, and welfare outcomes of women-driven Agritech enterprises in India based on primary data of 120 respondents and secondary sources. Through the statistical analysis, it is observed that with increasing technology usage among women agripreneurs, access to finance, digital literacy, and social barriers are some of the critical aspects. The research concludes that Agritech participation has a positive link with the household income, education, and health outcomes. The conclusion made in the paper is that empowering women in Agritech can be used to promote sustainable rural development and inclusive economic growth.
