Papers on technology and women bring out, among other things, a situational analysis, work conditions in home and farm, wages, bearing on her farm employment and participation. Prospective role and status have been projected in the changing techno-economic context that warrants about the displacement of women workers in developing agriculture.

In order to effectively address the needs of farm women, it is necessary to evaluate and study existing agricultural educational programs for women. This qualitative intrinsic case study evaluated the effectiveness of Annie's Project in meeting the educational needs of farm women. Interviews were conducted with 18 past Annie's Project participants in Missouri, Iowa, and Illinois to study the influence of Annie's Project on their lives. Audiovisual materials and documents were also used in the data analysis. The findings of this case study show that Annie's Project helped participants find their voice and agency on the farm, as well as strengthen farm relationships. This led participants to feel empowered to become better business partners and owners, seek additional education, increase their satisfaction with their farm role and/or lifestyle, and contribute to their rural communities. This study supports the current research that women respond to women only programs, a network of other women is important, and education empowers women. Additionally, this study substantiates the need for assisting women in all stages of their farming identities so they can be an equitable partner or the farmer in their farming operation. As we move forward, the need for educational programs for farm women will continue to be in high demand. Annie's Project, coupled with the implications from this study, can serve as a guide for development of future programming for farm women.
