The findings revealed that, household size, income, membership in cooperatives and organizations as well as the frequency of PARTICIPATION in cooperatives and organizations, gatherings were in positive significant (p<0.05) correlation with the level of RURAL WOMEN’s PARTICIPATION in POST-HARVEST ACTIVITIES. In addition, the level of one’s internal motivation, use of communication channels as well as taking part in extension and education courses have been positively and significantly (p<0.01) correlated with the level of RURAL WOMEN’s PARTICIPATION in post harvest activities. The results of multiple regressions revealed that, variables of: PARTICIPATION extension and education courses, as well as one’s frequency of use of communication channels could explain 66.5% of the variation in the extent of RURAL WOMEN’s PARTICIPATION in POST-HARVEST ACTIVITIES.
