Gender Equity and Access to Economic Opportunities in Agriculture in Botswana
This is a report of a study commissioned by the Ministry of Agriculture, Division of Planning and Statistics (DAPS) in the wake of the Fourth UN Conference on Women, held in Beijing in 1995. The objective of the study was to consider the extent to which women are disadvantaged in the agricultural economy and the appropriate role for government in reducing any disparities. One of the statistical evidence the study presents suggests that, while on average women farm less land than men, they compensate for their relative lack of access to land by higher productivity. Secondly, although older women own less livestock than men, younger women farmers own as many cattle as male farmers of the same age. The report presents a profile of the role of women in agriculture faced by women. Discusses the role for government in alleviating gender imbalances in agriculture. Also presents the recommendations of the study and proposed plan of action.
