"The empowerment of women in the livestock sector is fundamental to achieve gender equality. It also is instrumental for increased household productivity and improved household health and nutrition." #beef #equality #WomensRights #foodjustice https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11205-018-1934-z

#WomensHistoryMonth just ended, yet in half the world women cannot own property. Tell me again how row-crop agriculture leads to #equality and #foodjustice? https://www.worldbank.org/en/news/press-release/2019/03/25/women-in-half-the-world-still-denied-land-property-rights-despite-laws

Care to comment @ewg?
