Gender-disaggregated analysis of sustainable intensification practices adoption: A case of northern Ghana

Abstract

Paper summary generated by OpenAI: This study presents a gender-disaggregated analysis of sustainable intensification practices in agriculture, highlighting the differential impacts and contributions of male and female farmers. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, the research combines quantitative surveys with qualitative interviews to assess the adoption of sustainable practices and their outcomes on productivity and environmental sustainability. Findings reveal significant gender disparities in access to resources, knowledge, and decision-making power, which influence the effectiveness of sustainable intensification strategies. The paper underscores the importance of integrating gender perspectives into agricultural policies to enhance sustainability and equity in farming systems.
