  • Mapping gender networks in Bogor District, West Java: Farmers accessing markets for their agricultural products
    Christie, Maria Elisa; Puspitawati, Herien (2010)
    In Nanggung, West Java Province, Indonesia, agricultural production is dominated by men while women have little access and control over land, capital, and production inputs. Using qualitative methodology including mapping nodes in social networks, this study aims to understand how gendered networks affect women's ability to access markets and capture value for their agricultural products. While men farmers benefit from long established male-dominated information networks, women who are able to access the same networks obtain the same price as men. Women who actively participated in marketing have support from their husband and family in production and marketing of vegetables, are more confident negotiating obstacles, sell directly to consumers and obtain higher prices than from middlemen.

    Chiong-Javier, Elena (Manila, Philippines: De La Salle University, 2008)

It also seeks to determine how these networks influence the women's access to market information and their household bargaining status. The study employs a qualitative multi-method approach that combines review of related literature and project documents/ reports, in-depth interviews, participatory network mapping, and participatory focused discussions. The study's subjects are selected women farmers belonging to a formal women's association (Philippines and Vietnam) or informal women's group (Indonesia).
