Most importantly: we have to support women in agriculture because many times they are not the only ones producing food, even though they are involved… - Dzodzi Tsikata

But there is the mistake of deciding that it is not necessary to produce [other things] because, if you produce raw materials for export, you can earn enough money to buy food. So many farmers are not encouraged to continue producing and are not investigating how to produce, store, process and improve food security. Agriculture focuses on commodities.

Women's rights affect many interconnected spheres that cannot be separated. If one focuses only on one aspect and ignores the rest, women's rights are not realized.

Women are forgotten individuals with disproportionate level of income due to poverty and deprivation.
