Agricultural production plays a significant role in the Indian economy. In India, women and agriculture seem synonymous terms. One can not think of agriculture without women. There is hardly any activity in agriculture except ploughing, where women are not involved. The tribal farmwoman shares with her husband the arduous burden of farm work in addition to her major responsibility as home maker, by helping in all other agricultural and animal husbandry activities. Keeping this fact in mind, the present study was carried out to find out Innovativeness of tribal farm women and its relationship with their contribution in agriculture and animal husbandry. The result of the study revealed that More than half (57.00 per cent) of the respondents were less innovative, followed by 34.00 per cent were medium innovative and very less i.e. 9.00 per cent respondents were high innovative. It is also observed that there is highly significant relationship between the innovativeness and overall extent of contribution of tribal farmwomen in agricultural operations whereas there is a non-significant relationship between the innovativeness and overall extent of contribution of tribal farmwomen in animal husbandry activities.
