Improving Rural Women's Access to Productive Resources

On average, #women make up about 43%of the agricultural #LabourForce in #DevelopingCountries. Evidence indicates that if these women had the same access to productive resources as #men, they could increase yields on their #farms by 20 to 30%, raising total agricultural output in developing countries by 2.5 to 4%, in turn reducing the number of #hungry people in the #world by 12 to 17%.
