Empowering women in agriculture stands as a critical endeavour in Africa, where women form the backbone of the agricultural sector. Across the continent, women play multifaceted roles, from planting and harvesting crops to processing and marketing produce. Despite their pivotal contributions, women often face systemic barriers that hinder their full participation and potential within the agricultural landscape. Addressing these barriers and empowering women in agriculture is not only a matter of gender equality but also a strategic imperative for achieving sustainable development, food security, and economic growth across Africa.
