Women farmers make up around 43% of the agricultural labour force and produce over half of all food grown worldwide. Yet, when you picture a farmer, are they a woman? To mark International Women's Day we spoke to a panel of experts on the role biases and misconceptions play in preventing women farmers’ access to agricultural advisory services in different regions and cultural contexts around the world.
The panel includes Kritika Khanna, Business Development and Communications Officer, CABI, Bethel Terefe, Gender Coordinator, CABI, Gabriela Rivadeneira, Agricultural Scientist in Bolivia and Kainat Panhwer, a Women Entrepreneur Facilitator in Pakistan. The discussion is moderated by Frances Williams, Global Monitoring and Evaluation Manager, CABI.
