Enabling women to benefit more equally from agrifood value chains
In Africa, small-scale agriculture – including post-production activities such as handling, processing and marketing – is a major source of income in rural areas. In recent years, women have increased their role in the rural sector significantly, and their contribution to household and commercial agriculture is fundamental. Empowering and investing in rural women has been found to increase productivity, reduce hunger and malnutrition and improve rural livelihoods significantly
