Description - Breaking Through Grass Ceiling by Margaret Alston

Farm women are virtually absent from the leadership positions which structure agricultural organisations and policy and shape the industry. This book examines the contemporary position of women in agriculture, drawing on interviews and surveys with many hundreds of Australian women – farmers, bureaucrats, leaders and activists - and with powerful men in the industry. Giving a voice to rural women, the book presents a wide-ranging, rich tapestry of opinion and insight. Feminists, social scientists - both researchers and students – and others interested in gaining an understanding of gender relations in rural areas and organisations will find this book a fascinating read and an invaluable resource.
