| dc.description | In many countries of the Asia-Pacific region, peanut is an important cash as well as food crop and is grown in large acreage or in home gardens. This crop has the unique character of being a cash crop with high market value, requiring intensive labour and offers direct food value with minimum processing. It is also a product amenable for sale in small-scale food vending markets to generate cash income for women. Women’s role in the peanut sector contributes to household food security making it a good entry point to assess the role of women in the cash crop sector. The document presents the summaries of the papers and a synthesis of the discussion on gender roles in the production and consumption aspects in the peanut sector. The countries represented in the consultation were Bangladesh, Cambodia, China PR, India, Lao PDR, Nepal, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Thailand and Viet Nam. | |
