Gender and Generational Involvements in Rice Enterprises in Nigeria

The access to productive resources is crucial to sustainable rice development. The rice enterprise involves competition for resources by various gender categories with peculiar constraints and challenges. Men and women of different ages are often disproportionately involved in production processing and marketing. If any of them lack incentives and services to participate as equal partners this gender inequity may affect the performance of the enterprise and impede rice development in general. Thus this book assessed gender and generational involvements in rice enterprises in south-western Nigeria.
