- Production and consumption by gender and role among transhumants in Western Sudan: The Baggara (Hawazma) of KordofanMichael, B. J. (Pullman, WA: Washington State University, 1985)This report covers specific research areas, such as the roles of men and women in management and agricultural production; the social constraints in the definition of gender roles; women's resources and sources of income (i.e. the use and management of ruminant milk, and allocation of household resources); and the relationship of gender and role to the seasonal cycles of transhumance.
