In an effort to sustain N atural Resource Management (NRM) in united Andhra Pradesh, there has been a major thrust on implementation of various technologies under integrated natural resource management program by the state. The program was implemented in all the three regions of united Andhra Pradesh viz., Telangana, Rayalaseema and Andhra Pradesh. Considering the importance of implementation of NRM for the sustainable livelihood of women groups, this research study was taken up in one district per region with the objective to identify the major constraints elicited by the women groups in implementation of NRM activities. The results indicated that majority of the constraints perceived by the women groups were lack of marketing knowledge, difficulty in selecting the entrepreneurship activity, lack of proper transport facilities, lack of education, knowledge and managerial skills, lack of credit availability at low rates of interest and financial support. The results also indicated that the suggestions given by majority of the women groups to address the constraints perceived by them. The suggestions are to strengthen the forward and backward linkages, loan to the individual members rather than to the entire group, increase in the loan amount to start the enterprise, providing transport facilities, and increase in the frequency of loans, reduction of rate of interest on loans in the order of importance. Hence, there is a need for creation of awareness on importance of NRM activities for enhancing the efficiency, skills and knowledge through organizing more number of capacity building programs for women groups. This will enable the women groups to undertake entrepreneurial activity in the villages.
