Even though often underappreciated, women`s role in family farming is quite sig nificant for the overall farm`s reproduction. On the other side, farm women of ten lack vocational education for farming which potentially undermines effects of their economic performance. Thus, farm women`s participation in diffusion of ag ricultural innovation is of great importance. The main research question concerns characteristics of participation of farm women in diffusion of innovation. Problem is analysed based on data collected in a survey on the random sample of 319 farm women living in 14 villages in Vojvodina. The main findings help to identify ob stacles for farm women to participate in agricultural knowledge and innovation network. The issue is presented from the perspective of the rural gender regime.
