A study on entrepreneurship behaviour of fisherwomen in the Ratnagiri block of Ratnagiri district,
Maharashtra state was conducted during 2011-12 with a sample size of 105 fisherwomen from 10
villages of Ratnagiri block in Ratnagiri district. The components of entrepreneurial behaviour were
innovativeness, risk orientation, decision making, economic motivation, management orientation and
self-confidence. Among all these components majority of respondents (55.24%) belong to medium
entrepreneurial behaviour but in innovativeness and achievement motivation respondents exhibited
low and high entrepreneurial behaviour category. The rank correlation technique was applied and
found that the characteristics such as education, family size, house type and social participation were positively and significantly (P < 0.05) correlated with entrepreneurial behaviour. Principal
component analysis was performed to find out the major components of entrepreneurial behaviour
of the sampled fisherwomen. The first three principal components accounted for almost 58.97 per
cent of the total variance. Canonical correlation analysis was used to examine the potential
relationship between sociopersonal variables and entrepreneurship behaviour variables. Results of
the analysis showed that there was no relationship between set of socio-personal variables and
entrepreneurial behaviour variable.
