About This Book
Through a deep scientific analysis of pre-urban food systems, this work explains the intersections of gender, migration, and agriculture. In this work co-written piece by Dr. Naveed Farah and Dr. Saima Afzal, the authors explain on how patriarchal social norms influence agricultural practices, with migration altering dynamics in rural areas. By examining how women increasingly assume labor responsibilities in agriculture as men leave for work, the authors explore the resulting impact on food security, economic stability, and cultural traditions. Investigate the economic and social consequences of gender roles driven by migration and recognize the urgent need for policies to support women in agriculture. This book is essential reading for those interested in the critical nexus of gender equity and sustainable food systems.
