University of Georgia study: Women vital in farming, on and off the agricultural field.
Women often take care of everything but the farm, managing housework, yardwork and child care.
Two-thirds of the women in the study also work full time outside the home.
Many also manage the books for their families' farms.
A little recognition of their contribution to securing the U.S. food supply could go a long way, researchers say.
Rural child care is hard to find and often extremely expensive when you do find it.
The participants universally agreed that raising their families on a farm was a uniquely challenging but rewarding experience.
