What Work Is Real? Changing Roles of Farm and Ranch Wives in South-eastern Ohio.
Fink, Virginia S.
Journal of Rural Studies, v7 n1-2 p17-22 1991
Interviews with 19 Ohio farm wives examined role and task changes since 1910 related to technological innovation, broader economic restructuring, and patriarchal rules about family division of labor. As family farms integrate into the male-dominated world of agribusiness, women's work is becoming less visible and less valued. (SV)
