A sample of 100 rural women was selected randomly for the present study from four villages namely Dhar, Kathar,Madar and Mathatha from the Badgaon panchayat samiti of Udaipur, Rajasthan. Personal interview method was used for data collection. Frequencies, percentage, means percent scores and mean weighted scores were used for analysis of the data. Findings reveal that the respondents possessed average knowledge about RKBY with the MPS of 38.54. Regarding the benefit of RKBY gained by the rural women, it was found that the benefit of scheme was gained only by 2 per cent of the respondents.
