This essay emphasises the significance of taking action to address the enormous and severe gender disparity in agriculture. It is still a cliché that women are capable of toiling the land but not of owning it. Every day, women in agriculture confront the derogatory stereotype that farming is a man's occupation. Every day, they strive to overcome patriarchal restrictions that hinder them from having access to land to not only feed their families, but also to establish profitable agri-businesses that will offer food security, economic development, and alter the agricultural sector. One of the visible paradoxes is that 60% to 80% of smallholder farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa are women, yet only 15% to 20% are landholders.
