Level of entrepreneurial success among women entrepreneurs in agribusiness

Abstract

Entrepreneurship has been recognized as an essential ingredient of economic development. Very high literacy rate and lack of employment opportunities paved way for many unemployed youth including women to take up small-scale business units. In this study entrepreneurial success index (ESI) was developed to measure the level of success of women in agribusiness and the respondents were classified into four groups of very high success, high success, medium success and low success.
