Governments globally are proactively working to improve financial literacy among their populations, understanding that a lack of proficiency in this domain can result in persistent difficulties that greatly affect a person's financial health. In our country, the convergence of limited literacy and restricted access to financial services poses a barrier for smallholders in acquiring these essential skills. Given the diverse needs within different demographic groups, tailored financial education becomes imperative. This research, focusing on the specific demographic of "farmers", serves as valuable insight for the government to customize financial literacy content. The study employs the Chi-square test to analyze the association between literacy levels and demographic variables, offering a comprehensive understanding of the dynamics at play.

But the point to consider is the fact that it is generally recognized as a concept of gender in India. And the women who start up their businesses have to face short-term problems that occur in the early stages of a new project. Female entrepreneurship is seen as an effective tool for women's economic empowerment. Indian women have remained economically underdeveloped for decades.

Previous studies have shown that even if people have substantial debt, they are generally content with their financial situation. In contrast, financially secure individuals may enjoy the outcomes of their endeavors. Reduced work prospects, fluctuating income, and rising family sizes all contribute to an economic health disparity among those making low to medium income. Therefore, income earners' excellent or ill financial health mainly depends on their money management methods. This study examines the correlation between financial literacy and financial health. The findings revealed a robust positive correlation between financial literacy and financial health. It's crucial to characterize wage workers' money management skills and how they put their knowledge to use when making significant financial decisions. Companies should encourage workers to participate in financial education programs to increase their financial literacy and decrease debt levels.
