Women play a major role in agriculture in Africa, contributing 60-80% of food production, yet they face significant constraints in accessing resources like agricultural extension services, fertilizer, and credit. Targeting support to women farmers through approaches like increasing access to extension, improving fertilizer distribution methods, and strengthening land rights could increase agricultural productivity by 10-20% and have broader development benefits. For agricultural interventions to be effective for women, they need a holistic approach that is adapted to local gender roles and ensures women's meaningful participation and impact on incomes.
