This study deals with the socio-historical origin of current women subordination and its effect on the development of small-holder irrigation agriculture..It examines the problem within the framework of inter and intra household relations of production. The study was centred around the Terni irrigation practice in three villages: Digodigo, Kisangiro and Samunge.

The study is presented in six chapters. Chapter one provides background information about tho Terni people their location and irrigation system. Chapter two reviews available literature on genc1er issues and irrigation agriculture in order to underscore the position of women.

Chapter four presents research findings as obtained from the field with particular attention to the contribution of women in household economy.
