摘要：Among many others, the enigma of low production per acre is also a persistent common phenomenon of developing economies. The present study is a guide towards solving this problem by assessing the impact of women’s empowerment on agricultural production. The convenient sample of 160 women farmers aged between 21-55 year was recruited from district Khanewal, Pakistan. The Composite Women’s Empowerment Index (CWEI: Batool & Batool, 2018) was used to measure the empowerment variable. The outcomes of the stepwise regression model showed a positive significant impact of women’s empowerment, in particular, and use of technology, agricultural information, farm ownership, paid job, and agricultural training on agricultural production, produced by sample women farmers, in general. The recommendations to the government are also discussed.
