National Women in Agriculture Study

National Farmers Union

This survey is part of a national effort to better understand the experiences, needs, and perceptions of women in agriculture today. Your responses will help identify what’s working, where there are gaps, and how agricultural communities and organizations can better support women across all roles, from farmers and ranchers to educators, advocates, and business owners.

Depending on your background, you may see different sets of questions. If you are a woman in agriculture, we will ask about your work, leadership interests, challenges, and the kinds of support you find helpful. If you are not a woman in agriculture, including men in agriculture, or individuals outside the industry, we will ask for your perspective on women’s roles and leadership in agriculture.
