Potential for learning or transfer
In this context of social and economic changes that have changed the expectations and mentality of rural women, it is worth mentioning those women who are jointly responsible for agrarian tasks, assuming a good part of them and contributing both goods and work, but in the practice lacks sufficient legal recognition, economic value and social reflection, as it does not transcend the family circle.
In this sense, the development of the most effective active policies has shown self-employment, not only in quantitative terms, but in qualitative terms, of stability, economic driver and rural development.
It is in the last indicated aspect where the self-employed owners of agricultural holdings, contribute decisively to development, to the creation of employment and, in the end, to the population fixing in the villages of our Autonomous Community.
