Overview

This book gives a complete view of agricultural gender dynamics by blending theoretical ideas with practical gender analysis methodologies. It argues that gender dynamics play a crucial yet often overlooked role in agricultural productivity, rural development, and food security. Examining historical, sociological, and technological factors that affect gender roles and relationships in agrarian settings, it reveals deep-seated inequalities that hinder agricultural development and proposes ways to create more equitable and productive agricultural systems. The pioneering ideas and studies of Ester Boserup, Bina Agarwal, Gerda Lerner, and Judith Butler provide a comprehensive framework for analysing and overcoming gender inequities in agriculture. The book gives a complete view of agricultural gender dynamics by blending theoretical ideas with practical gender analysis methodologies. This strategy equips readers with the information and skills to critically evaluate and address gender inequities in their work. It will appeal to students and researchers in gender studies, developmental studies, economics, and agriculture, as well as policymakers concerned with gender equity.
