Descripción
This paper attempted to explore mainly the consequences of homestead crop production under homestead agro-forestry (HAF) practices on the family income and women's status. The data from HAF practising households reveal that these farms have earned substantial income and production gains. The women of the households gained in terms of higher social status. The gender status in particular has improved significantly on these households as evidenced by the increased participation of HAF practising women in taking decisions on crucial socio-economic matters in the households.
