dc.description.abstract |
The purpose of this paper is to analyse barriers and constraints to South African women's access to
agricultural extension services. It is argued that women do most of the agricultural activities and are responsible
for the provision of food and, thus, contribute to food security worldwide. They, however, face a lot of
constraints in accessing agricultural extension services such as socio-cultural constraints, the reproductive
burden, lack of access to credit facilities and their low literacy levels. This paper is a theoretical study based
on the analysis of literature, to probe the constraints that women face in accessing agricultural extension services.
This paper confirms that there are barriers such as socio-cultural, lack of access to credit, the challenge
of women balancing paid and unpaid care work with farming and women's low literacy levels |
