In studies of the “Rural Problem”, few have been focused on “a rural woman” up to late years. And most of description and analysis about women have been included in “an industrial issue”. After International Women's Year, studies related to rural women have been increased. In studies of the “Rural Problem”, gender analysis is new method. Therefore the gender statistics of agriculture, forestry and fisheries are requested for basic studies. In the reevaluation of rural women, it still includes the reproductive sex and mother role in its background. Looking from a viewpoint of gender is also to reconsider the meaning of “a man”. And it is also to reevaluate various “workers” who have been removed out as “non basic worker”.
